If you need your id to access internet: not use it anymore, selfhosting go brrr

If you need your id for all content-sharing websites like social media or microblogging: return back to good ol webrings and static websites. Can't kill the web on its core principles. No algorithms, pure passion and creativity.

Burn the grass

[-] MTK@lemmy.world 17 points 1 day ago

Honestly, back off. The more tech literate I get, the less tech I want in my life.

[-] KumaSudosa@feddit.dk 5 points 14 hours ago

This is exactly how I feel too! As a "cloud engineer" (even the titles are pointless) the last thing I want to do is to have anything to do with tech whatsoever, even if I like my job

[-] Saymaz@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 16 hours ago

Create a local mesh for the community.

I lived great before the Internet, I'll live just as great after it's gone.

He is probably using Linux, he needs grass.sh

[-] root@aussie.zone 7 points 21 hours ago

Needs to be root as well :p

[-] MTK@lemmy.world 7 points 21 hours ago

Sudo -u root grass.sh --touch

[-] bitwolf@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 day ago

Self host even more.. Use Gemini even more

A simple Web-like hypertext system without styles and scripts. The protocol can be implemented in two days by a complete idiot (I have my own Gemini viewer, I may not be terribly proud of it, but I like it).

Yes, but with modern technologies where easily done. TLS, markdown-like markup, MIME, prompts for input.

[-] Blaiz0r@lemmy.ml 1 points 13 hours ago

Interesting, I'll check it out

[-] SaneMartigan@aussie.zone 34 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

I'll avoid the ID demanding sites. Feels similar to how I never got into iPods because I didn't like iTunes, mp3 players still happened.

[-] AntiOutsideAktion@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 day ago

I moved songs to my ipod with winamp.

[-] Vupware@lemmy.zip 8 points 1 day ago

Winamp kicks the llama’s ass

[-] Taleya@aussie.zone 1 points 6 minutes ago

No it doesn't. There are whips

The commercial web that I use that might require ID would be for payment processing etc. My bank knows how old I am. I can and will pay bills directly through my bank instead of using their portal. Or they can explain to me in writing why they don't want to take my payment. Just about everything else is optional.

[-] appropriateghost@lemmy.ml 31 points 1 day ago

I've gone long years without using any social media associated to my identity, as many others do, and i'll eat my cooked shirt if I start thinking, "hey sure why not let me into this shitty internet".

I'll be fine without using the internet if it comes down to it, at that point it'd be a liability. Dinosaurs think they can control the internet which is a hilarious proposition in the first place.

Pixel phone running Calyx, VPN, physical maps, second name, second phone number, leaving most platforms, trying to take my people with me

Will make own services and tell f*ck-off to those who will request ID :P

[-] dan1101@lemmy.world 87 points 2 days ago

Stop using any sites that require ID.

[-] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 123 points 2 days ago

Stop using the Internet. Seriously.

I already only used open source products for decades now, and the Internet is just a network, you can use different networks, different protocols if you want, even embedded on current Internet protocols, or maybe use even something that completely sidesteps the Internet

Either way, the Internet has mostly been a failure
