Couple notes for mastodon.social moderation:

If you're reporting someone for spam, please include at least one toot in the report, it saves time for us. Especially important if you are reporting someone for DMs, they are not visible in our UI unless they are included.

Don't report sex workers for "illegal in the US", this isn't the US. If you don't want to see anyone from switter.at, open the profile of anyone from switter.at and choose "Hide everything from switter.at" in the dropdown menu.

To buy or not to buy this ?

Libreboot T400
Price: 278โ‚ฌ
minifree.org/product/libreboot

I'm only afraid about the old cpu specs...
This pc will be used just for connecting and manage with the server via ssh, maybe browsing a bit, doing small things.

What do you think ?
Are there other valid alternatives, possibly with libreboot?

I've seen surprisingly many people call GDPR "The new Y2K bug" because of how "It breaks everything"

I don't know how you got the idea to relate those two things. But just like the Y2K bug, all GDPR does is fix things by brute-force that shouldn't have been broken in the first place.
