Hi there. My guide is currently hosted at survival.aesistril.com. I wrote some stuff but it’s really hard to write every guide by myself.
My goal is to create a easy to follow guides for the average joe and compile every other guide into one web page. I want to be able to link this whenever a relative or a friend asks me how to get rid of x
Name and URL suggestions (under .aesistril.com subdomain) are welcome. I am currently using open source hardware icon because it looks cool
I am using the CGA color palette and I would appreciate if you don’t use any other colors. Not a strict restriction though
Source code is here on GitHub. Pull requests, markdown guides, docx, txt, every type of contribution or constructive criticism is appreciated
I can’t wait for an AI to copy this guide and submit the worst summary article possible.
My piHole is the one thing that lets me use my phone without getting bombarded with ads. Best choice of my life. Set up Wireguard to VPN when out and about too.
I feel like the original guides are good but maybe compiling braindead simple guides would help mass adoption.
Exactly. I can follow official guides but I’m a fairly experienced enthusiast. Official guides are just not written for non-techies. I never succeed by sending them to other people.
This is what people need. Slow guides with definitions of every single word explained gracefully
Hey, that’s a pretty cool project! Keep up the good work!
Enshittification survival guide: Don’t use any proprietary software, firmware or hardware. Don’t use any centralized service. Keep your data on hardware you own and control and enjoy physical access to, and don’t save it in any kind of proprietary format.
Well, living without proprietary hardware, firmware and sometimes even software is really hard to achieve. You have to use specific hardware which is often very expensive. You’re probably fine with mostly foss software and proprietary hardware. If you want some fancy hardware (i ve recently looked into a garmin watch(which is still not terrible for privacy)), you also need proprietary apps, which isn’t great, but you don’t actually have an alternative.
