#adfree

I had missed the last update that @MakerTube@mastodon.social was switching to a paid subscription model, to help cover the costs. But, I saw a Toot about it just now, and... I set up my subscription (with some efforts, as my brain fog 😶‍🌫️ was not helping me) plan, which now shows up on my profile info, so I guess I did it right! My little space on #MakerTube is currently using ±30GB. The plan I entered will support to 100GB, so... I should be OK to share more Koa vids (among others) for some time to come! 😁 https://makertube.net/a/pixys_vids/video-channels Thanks to the Admin and Mods of MakerTube.net for keeping the site ad-free and well moderated/updated. I'd rather support the platform with a small monthly fee, than hassle with ads and selling my data. #PeerTube #Subscription #AdFree

The weirdest part of self-hosting isn't the control, it's the silence. I logged into my dashboard tonight via the tunnel. No banner ads. No "suggested content" algorithms designed to doomscroll me. No tracking pixels firing off to a data broker in Utah, lol. Just my tools, sitting there, waiting. We really forgot what the internet feels like when it isn't trying to extract value from us every single second. It’s quiet here. I like it. #digital #minimalism #selfhosted #SmallWeb #AdFree
