If you log in w/ tor to account you’ve logged it w/o it you deanonymise yourself and it makes no sense.

Why didn’t anyone mention burning it to ashes?

It’s not, i’ve got two non-tech friends on my private instance, biggest issue was me nuking wrong folder on server. You just need a good client, i go with Dino for desktop and monocles chat for android. My non-techies are mobile-only and i and my techy friend are on Dino on desktop, only feature it lacked is group calls which i’ve monkeypached with a feature for my bot that generates Jitsi invites.

Tried and can confirm almost every webpage even static ones which could be simple as rock needs truckload of bloat js code to be loaded from ext servers.

To add to Possibly Linux’s precise and correct answer: Those leaks are made by hackers taking over organisation’s servers and publishing what they found, noone can control it not even orgs in question.

torrents have trackers, special servers that keep track of who’s got which parts of a file.

In fact it improves search results, when you have multiple search engines turned on searxng does some sorting or filtering thing and manages to filter out lots SEO crap and ads from search.

Ppl do it with UV LEDs and they claim it works. I never tested it, i’m dried-a-cactus kind of guy.

First thing that comes to mind is ye olde cheap opamp and a potentiometer. This aritcle claims hysteresis can be done with a resistor. Opamp output is not meant for relay, but it can control a transistor which in turn can control your relay just fine.

Edit: i’ve just re-read your post, there’s no need for relays if you have low voltage, just get a transistor rated for more than 5V and make sure it wom’t overheat.

Cloud and “serverless” solutions

for chat there’s IRC or bit more modern XMPP.

It’s more likely to be a sb like me who just gathers stuff like that for future use in (maybe) questionable way.

I mean efficient clients that are both easy for non-techy ppl and their 4GB of RAM.

Looks like it’s got same problems as Matrix does (despite architecture diffirences).

I use TinyBit launcher, i think it can do it but i never needed to because junk app quickly go so far in list you just don’t see them.

You need optimus or bumblebee to do that. Just beware those are pain to install.
