My understanding is that you’re not going to find a self hosted solution that makes use of SMS (not counting email to SMS gateways) because sending SMS programmatically requires a SMS gateway those aren’t cheap (think of Twilio). You can find many options for app-based notifications (push notifications usually) and email-based notifications as a workaround.
Good point, it doesn’t appear to be. Might be good to drop a note on GitHub (or their contact method of choice) so they can set that flag.
Edit: I just went and sent them a mention on Mastodon. I noticed it’s an admin account so I wonder if Lemmy lets both flags be set at once.
I personally just started using Owntracks, which is a standalone location tracker. There is also Traccar which I looked into but opted not to make use of.
Some people use it as a Find My replacement, I personally make use of it as a Google Maps Timeline replacement (and have imported my previous data as a result) as well as for Tile tracker location history (which I’ve got custom scripted currently).
Wait since when does a tilde mean high availability?
Definitely agree with this one, though I will say you can replace one proprietary bit of software (Microsoft Office) with another (Google Drive/Docs) and get a large portion of the way in some industries. Really depends on what you need to do.
But alas, still no widely accepted FOSS alternatives.
Man, imagine how useful that would actually be though? You’d save a lot of money and headache a few months down the line…
As someone who has very little experience with ActivityPub but is always interested in learning more, what’s the risk of "burn"ing a domain? Does it come from certs or signatures changing on the same domain, causing it to no longer be accepted or something?

As someone who has a server rack with multiple servers, I would not recommend them to start with as they use up a ton of electricity. I’d recommend a small form factor computer (or a mid sized tower) to start with, it’ll be marginally less powerful but for what you need it’ll get the job done perfectly fine.
If you have an old desktop laying around, that’s the perfect way to get started. Even if you only have some old parts, that’ll cut down on your initial costs. For anything new I generally recommend looking around at places like https://logicalincrements.com to see what they recommend for CPUs and motherboards at different price points. For hard drives I use https://diskprices.com and also eBay. You generally want motherboards that support 4+ SATA connections or have PCIe slots for an expander in the future.
It’s useful to note that there exists Lemmy servers where down votes are not processed. So the high up vote to down vote ratio isn’t necessarily a reflection of people not down voting, it’s potentially a reflection of the servers that allow down votes along with all other servers (generally they all allow up votes).
