up to now I install all my updates manually, maybe I should look into this: how to auto-update.

lol. Same issue for me. I run it for months, and surprisingly (for me) nothing breaks at all.

But fucking ssh shows warnings regarding some “post quantum crypto” stuff; recommending software update, that was not there before lol.

I agree; the best option is to ditch Android … those who can do it. Some Banking apps, public transport ticket apps, and post/mail-delivery apps seem to be a hard requirement for people in real live though. Which leads to the question: But what about people who can not ditch their phones and can not afford multiple devices (this decade)? Maybe laws that introduce a hard requirement that everything should work through a (open source) web-browser can help, but then what about “offline” use cases?

It feels like we are building our own digital prison in real time.

I have bad experience with self-hosting termux server on a Samsung-Android device. The background process would be terminated after one week of hands off runtime. I tried to rectify this in the power-saving settings to no avail. Still this is really cool:

Your server works for me, it displays:

Battery: 63% DISCHARGING

Temp: 12°C

The diversity of rocks you can find in the environment is truly stunning

How many Terrabytes of storage do you host? Is there any way to tell how many terrabytes the entire PeerTube ecosystem hosts?

Such numbers could be useful for marketing purposes.

I enjoy using peertube, the videos load quick enough for me lol. And there is a large selection of gaming content; Because of the good experience, I consider making a dontaion.

Yeah but for this they need to open source the entire tech stack imo. You can run oss on a closed source bootloader, but the end result will still be the enshittification and hardware lock-down.

Auditable open source hardware and wireless-chips are the real deciding factor in the long game!

What does Grokipedia say on the genocide in South Africa?

for real? Mentioning the wrong (key-) word gets you cancelled like this?

This makes me love python (the programming language) even more.
