@freeschool @invidious @codeberg@mastodon.technology @gitea @james Great list! I already use some of these. LibRedirect is a blessing
@invidious Oh you were right, I do love it :)
Thanks Ghosty 💫
@STORM has a SUPER LIST OF ALTERNATIVES AND COMMERCIAL FILTERS!
- almost beats any list I've done in the past - but here is some more for your next post!
---> add shout out to @invidious
---> added some hashtags
---> some more things below
Google Maps ---> OpenStreetMap https://www.openstreetmap.org/
GitHub / GitLab ---> use @codeberg@mastodon.technology ( an instance of @gitea )
Search engines:
- https://gigablast.com
- https://search.brave.com
- https://searx.org (perhaps gone)
----------MY OWN NOTES:----------
NOTE 1 Instagram ----> you said was Bibliogram shutdown so yeah I guess ----> https://imginn.com/
NOTE 2 #GitLab is planning to get rid of repositories from accounts in the free tier that haven't had activity in at least 12 months.
...Just like @conservancy said to #GiveUpGitHub, it's time to #GiveUpGitLab as well.
Switch to @codeberg@mastodon.technology an instance of @gitea
