#Pleroma Up and Running again!!😀 . I gotta say thank you for the assist again.
In my experience #Freedombone stuff rarely goes wrong, and when it does its always been down to my choice of (awkward) arm64 hardware.
I'm putting @Jase back to sleep again (Until I mess things up again!)

I use Qutebrowser (primary) and Falkon (secondary) as my main browsers they are activly maintained
I use w3m frequently its a stable text browser with graphical ability
Netsurf and dillo less so (they need dev attention I think)
SeaMonkey worked ok when I last tried it

Falkon uses qtwebengine[0] from the project page:
"Qt WebEngine uses code from the Chromium project. However, it is not containing all of Chrome/Chromium:
Binary files are stripped out
Auxiliary services that talk to Google platforms are stripped out
The codebase is modularized to allow use of system libraries like OpenSSL
We do update to the latest Chromium version in use before a Qt release. After a release some bug fixes and security patches are backported. For LTS releases of Qt we might also update Chromium in a patch level release."
I suspect your dislike of qt stems from a pathological need to be wrong 😁

Qutebrowser & Falkon are light used in qt5 environments
Possibly SeaMonkey for GTK (it reminds me of FF about 7 years ago)
Then there is netsurf and dillo (BTW there was a framebuffer no X version of netsurf at one point..)
Dont forget w3m

@poetgrant
When I have a working machine of that spec I will post/blog the results
I have some p2 laptops that need repairs and are incomplete so I may just buy one in good cosmetic condition from ebay over the next couple months or so and put a new battery in

@poetgrant
Glad you like it, I have plans to get something like an old p2 laptop with no more than 64MB of RAM and set up a pure "no X" install just to see if its possible to do in 2019, I think it is
@byllgrim @Wolf480pl

@poetgrant
SoX is frikken great, I tend to use the play command most, but have used it to edit make ringtones for myself lol
-
@poetgrant @byllgrim @Wolf480pl
messed up the mailx command (should also work with mail, nail, s-nail, heirloom mail)
mailx -f imaps://user@domain.tld%20imap.provider.com
should then ask for imap password

@byllgrim @Wolf480pl @poetgrant
Dont forget fbgrab or fbcat for TTY screenshots
-
@byllgrim @Wolf480pl @poetgrant
Also check out the twin windowing environment

@Wolf480pl @byllgrim
@poetgrant
Depending on distro you will have access to various linux framebuffer based apps.
Try out w3m and see images, distro depending you can use mplayer or gstreamer via the framebuffer for those cat/dog/aardvark videos too.
I have a list somewhere of the apps I used when I did not use X
Also check out directfb, although I am not sure if they are still an active project (they did an in kernel framebuffer based window manager too)

@bob
Yeah, I get that aspect but its more of the horror of possibility and probability of an entire transplant of 'conciousness' like futurama's heads in jars (digital ones).
I may need to check out lifebox

At some point it is probable that our thoughts, memories and personalities could be uploaded to personal digital assstants for our decendents to receive advice and control their appliances with.
I really hope that process is opensourced cuz the thought of being part of an extended surveilance capitalist advertising system kinda disgusts me.

@neb
Yeah, some time ago I initially got excited by browsh then I realized it requires a full install of Firefox which renders it pointless to me in practical terms.
Now if w3m or Lynx were more compatible with "modern web 2.0 website interactivity" or however its phrased, that would be awesome.

@bob
Ended up logging out, uninstalling, reinstalling and then logging in to #mastalab again.
Home feed is now back, cheers again
-
@bob
Thanks for the pointer
After stopping,starting, restarting stopping and starting nginx with systemctl the browser front end is working again.
Trying to figure out the issue with #mastalab now as it is still persisting, clearing its cache did not work, time to log out / log in I guess
-
@bob
Error from mastalab
-
@bob
My #freedombone Pleroma instance has lost its Home feed and is displaying 500 errors in the MastodonFE, also getting errors in mastalab only for the Home feed, any Ideas?

I use Zoho's free domain hosting tier, its a great midway point between self hosting and paying for hosted email.
Dkim is easy to set up too.
There are a couple of limitations but overall its great and not costing me any money.
