I use Backblaze B2, but stored in an encrypted Restic container, set up using this guide:

https://helgeklein.com/blog/restic-encrypted-offsite-backup-with-ransomware-protection-for-your-homeserver/

Restic has been great for automating backups, and even letting me mount the encrypted storage to grab individual files. I like doing it this way since I don't have to trust Backblaze isn't reading my data - I know for sure that they can't.

Performance of storage that is both remote and encrypted is about what you would expect, but I don't need access to the data unless something bad happens.

Forgejo is Gitea. It was a soft fork of Gitea, and more recently a hard fork.

You can read about why they hard forked, and decide for yourself if it's worth switching, but the consensus is that Forgejo is in better hands than Gitea.

Currently it's easy to migrate from Gitea to Forgejo, but the longer you wait and the more it diverges from Gitea, the harder it will become to migrate.

If you like the Forgejo direction and think it's in better hands than Gitea, you might want to consider migrating sooner rather than later. All of your data should remain intact as it's essentially a drop in replacement. This should only take you a few minutes if you're using the Docker version of Gitea.

They will do literally anything except support the Steam Deck

I don't think they were disagreeing with you, I think they were just trying to say:

You shouldn't need braces to be vertically aligned if your code is uniformly indented. Then you can easily see what code is paired together just by their indentation level.

Of course this is not always true if you've got a bunch of crazy nested indentation pushing things off to the right.

What's the logo that looks exactly like Arch but with a stylized X over it? I can't find any distro with that logo.

I've been using Lawnchair for a while, but development is so slow, and they are so consistently behind Android updates, that I think I've given up on custom launchers and will just use the stock AOSP launcher.

It is disappointing, but Google has made it so you don't get the fancy recents carousel unless you use the stock launcher. Lawnchair does support that by pretending to be the stock launcher, but Lawnchair only supports up to Android 12, and Android 14 is about to come out. There hasn't been a hint of Lawnchair even starting development of Android 13 compatibility, so I'm not confident they'll be able to keep up with 14 and beyond.

There is indeed no gif

But the good news is, posts on Lemmy are fully editable, even the title. You can save this!

What can I say? I like my name so much I went and made it my Lemmy domain and my username.

It might be that your phone camera actually takes them like that, but shows them to you rightside up. When you upload an image, you're uploading the exact file of the photo. If that file is "sideways," it's going to be sideways on Lemmy.

Eventually? We already had that two weeks ago!

In theory, Lemmy and Mastodon are compatible with one another, as they both use ActivityPub.

In practice:

Mastodon users can only see Lemmy posts as Boosts ("retweets"), and from what I hear, it's fairly annoying and not a good experience

Lemmy users can't see anything on Mastodon at all, Lemmy doesn't have a way to federate with Mastodon instances yet.

This is the first time Lemmy has seen this many users ever, so I'm confident both of these issues will be fixed sooner or later. When they are, you'll be able to see Lemmy posts on Mastodon as if they were posts ("tweets"), and you'll be able to see Mastodon posts on Lemmy as some kind of post (not sure if the format has been decided yet).
