Privacy-friendly YouTube frontends
Published on in 🔗 Links
When I watch YouTube videos on my Android phone, I almost always use the NewPipe app. It offers a privacy-friendly experience, protects me from ads, and offers a few more options that you would only get with YouTube Premium (downloading video or audio, for example).

Unpopular opinion: SQL is awesome and I really like writing performant SELECT statements.
About the Amazon and the climate crisis
Published on in 💭 Thoughts
Reading something like this makes me really sad: The Amazon now emits more CO2 than it absorbs – due to deforestation.

Now that I have the option to publish posts without them showing up in the feed for everyone, I can finally use my blog to comment on other IndieWeb sites and send webmentions without annoying my followers. Now my blog is really a complete Twitter replacement for me.
One post I commented on, for instance, is Barry Frost’s article about his new IndieWeb CMS. A different approach than mine.

I don’t know much about the technical background, but it’s kind of cool to see that a website can be hosted on a calculator (archive link).

When it comes to updates, I’ve always thought that it would be handy to be able to update all the software installed on the computer at once with a single command, so that I’m always up to date. But doing updates manually only once in a while for the programs I use also has something decelerating about it. 🤔 Am I getting old?
I am now car-less
Published on in 💭 Thoughts
I have posted a little less than usual the last few days - at least on this blog. But a few articles on my German blog. I finally sold my car today, or rather my grandmother’s car that she gave me, after I had been planning to do so for a very long time.

On the one hand, it feels pretty good to have worked quite focused all the time from seven in the morning until half past six in the evening and also to have accomplished a lot. On the other hand, it’s also pretty exhausting and I’m glad I only have to work 40 hours a week, so I don’t have to work that long every day. But still, I’m glad to have a job that I enjoy and am good at, that pays well and is not physically demanding. 👨💻
