I am surprised that 0 A.D. is not mentioned.
Although initially unplayable, the game was fun in the mid-to-late 2000s.
I haven’t checked it out in a while, but it holds high nostalgic value for me.

Interesting.
Before Shokz was AfterShokz. :-)
The comma is deliberately omitted and it’s placement is left to the reader.
The screenshot for StartPage is blurred for some reason. Re-uploading again:
E: Re-uploaded a fresh copy after restarting Voyager.
Contributing here with another sample point.
I did not find the mentioned link on either search engines’ first page of results.
DuckDuckGo:
StartPage:
I am not sure why a black bar appears when taking a full page screenshot of StartPage on Safari for iOS, but both screenshots are unedited and uploaded as-is.
I am aware of paid alternatives to ad-supported services like email, search, etc.
Even when considering media, music is something one can buy vinyls or use a streaming service that better(?) compensate the artist.
But movies and TV? Aren’t advertisements baked in to what most consume today, albeit at different levels? For instance, product placements in movies, ad-supported free streaming, paid streaming with ads, etc.
Unless we are talking about truly independent media which is either not easily accessible/discoverable to a layman like me, or isn’t as entertaining as the mainstream ones (highly debatable/subjective, as one hasn’t explored the offerings enough).
I would genuinely like to learn more about ad-independent media, and how you consume it.
Thanks for highlighting Pulsar.
I always found Atom clunky, but it was instrumental in changing how editors were made, perceived, and used.
It did not deserve the death/abandonment it got.
I too was pleasantly surprised when I stumbled upon the app a few years back. The licence model was a major factor in choosing the app over the rest.
Indeed, it is very reasonable.
It strikes a balance between subscriptions and perpetual licences.
Beside mentions of Jetbrains license model, I would like to mention the license model of a note taking app called Agenda[1].
It has a subscription wherein the customer retains the software and all of its functionality even after the subscription expires. One may resume the subscription down the line if they see a new feature worth having.
The creators of the app liken it to a magazine subscription wherein the customer retains the magazines even after the subscription lapses.
From my own experience of using it, I purchased the license for a year back in 2021 and let it lapse as I did not find the any of the new features to be worthwhile. I still keep an eye on their updates as it is my daily driver.
Posy - a channel about anything (along with some really fantastic music!)
I read a post that mentioned the community migrated to Lemmy.
Had to scroll a bit to see Mlem’s mention.
I believe it was the first native app for iOS around the time of Reddit API announcements. I am waiting for it to arrive on App Store.
The app suffered a few delays as the original developer bowed out due to the toxicity and pressures from building the app. Though the app is being developed under a new team, and is coming along well!
Till then wefwef FTW!
Speaking of, if wefwef can figure out the niceties of iOS (tap top to scroll to the top, haptics, etc.) I would gladly continue to use it. It is a really well made web app.

This one?
Saw this post on “All”. Last I checked (sometime in 2019), self-hosting was a fairly involved process.
Has the process simplified enough for a complete beginner like me to begin self-hosting services on, say, a raspberry pi?
If yes, can you please point me to a good resource/wiki?
He uses a version of Emacs called MicroEmacs.
I recall seeing his MicroEmacs configuration a while back when I was exploring options to start using Emacs.
