What services do you run on FreeBSD? Does using FreeBSD limit you in the number of apps you can have, as most of them target Linux?

I was looking for the same thing when I accidentally deleted a video from Google Photos app a month back. I didn't find any opensource ones, so I ended up using one from the playstore. Tried a few and turned off wifi before opening them, because I was sure they were going to have a lot of ads and generally don't want anything uploaded without me knowing.

One app worked (I don't even remember the name), then deleted it right away.

Check lowendtalk offers for some deals on VPS for self hosting. However be sure to check the sellers standing in the community from past offers. You'll also need to beware of resource limits as sellers will be trying to oversell like crazy and you might end up on some crowded nodes. So make sure you understand what youre getting yourself into.

That's HUGE if true. The pricing will also be an interesting factor.

People still fall for obvious online scams, crypto bots and email phishing, and you think there aren't enough people won't fall for fake reviews? Amazon has great damage control, they'll most likely offer mad users deals they can't refuse to prevent them from writing a bad review. I've been offered same product or a close enough product for free when I complained to Amazon support.

Amazon isn't some startup that few bad news can take down anymore. They'll say they investigated themselves, make a pr statement that they banned thousands of fake accounts and people will eat it up. It can keep expanding in new markets and keep the bad reviews rolling in while some mad customers scream into the void.

These people existed before lemmy, reddit or digg. just annoying to be around.

I can handle the blocking, that's something I can control. what I can't control is the same link being posted on multiple instances that just gets annoying to scroll through.

Recently Google announced Android 14, now all the technology, android, google related communities start posting the same link to the announcement along with the commentary by tech blogs and it repeats 10s of times in the feed.

I follow multiple tech subs across multiple instances for broader coverage but if the news is popular, it's on every one of them.
