Website domain and hosting?

Looking to set up a basic static website. What domain registrar should I go with? Would prefer something that has more privacy obviously. Any recommendations on hosting services (cannot host on own hardware right now)?

I would need something that has reasonable security, can work with LetsEncrypt SSL certs, and preferably has either privacy respecting analytics or no analytics. Don't want google to bother me or my website visitors.

Privacy respecting cleaning robots?
  • This looks fantastic. Thanks for the link!

  • Privacy respecting cleaning robots?

    Are there any robot vacuums/mops that respect privacy; that don't map your house and phone home with the information?

    Wave 5 of the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass launches July 12th!
  • Really looking forward to this wave; the tracks look amazing! Koopa Cape especially

  • Introducing Crackpipe - your decentralized, self-hosted gaming solution!
  • Oh dear...

    First that name. Oh my word. Just no.

    Second, pretty much directly encouraging piracy. Just... That's also a hard no.

    Sorry, while the technological concept is interesting for games that don't have a restrictive license, between a lack of forethought regarding the name and the outright condonment of piracy, I'm gonna have to stay away. If these issues are readdressed in the future, it my be worth re-examining

  • Nah, that was just the cherry on top for me. GOG also refuses to support Linux with their client, delisted a Taiwanese game due to Chinese government pressure, have hedged REALLY close to DRM content like with Hitman...

    The cyberpunk 2077 was just another case if acting in bad faith. CD projekt red acts in bad faith. Till they change that, I am sticking with steam

  • Thank you for the informative reply! I am curious; why does the framework laptop fall short of a dream laptop? Can you elaborate?

  • TekSavvy puts itself up for sale amid industry turmoil
  • Aw darn it. I was just about to switch to them too... Unless they get bought by an idealist buyer, they are just gonna get gobbled up by the big 3...

  • what is Lemmy.one's stance on Meta engagement with the Fediverse?
  • It seems meta wants "off the record" meetings with instance admins, such as Fosstodon https://fosstodon.org/@kev/110592625692688836

  • what is Lemmy.one's stance on Meta engagement with the Fediverse?
    wedistribute.org FediPact is an Organized Effort to Block Meta's ActivityPub Platform

    Meta, Facebook's parent company, is looking to launch their own fediverse platform. Some people are already advocating to block it en masse.

    I say tell Meta to pound sand

    1Password: Rolling out telemetry this summer
  • In that case, assuming I read you correctly, I have to disagree. Privacy and security companies cannot rely on advertising or telemetry to be profitable; doing so is counter and paradoxical to their standing as a security/privacy company.

    Bitwarden seems to be doing just fine. 1Password should be taking cues from them, not advertising revenue

  • Pop!_OS & COSMIC funded by System76 hardware sales
  • Being honest, its really hard for me to buy a pop_os laptop when the framework laptop exists. Being able to have that level of customizability and self repair options are just too good to pass up.

    Suggestion: perhaps pop_os could collab with framework to make a pop_os laptop that is far more customizable and repairable than what is currently available

  • 1Password: Rolling out telemetry this summer
  • Nah. Its just a tried and true step of enshitification. Fingers crossed that bitwarden is already profitable so we still have a good cloud password manager...

  • Genuinely cannot tell if you are sarcastic or not.

  • Should the ChrisTitus Ultimate Windows Utility be officially recommended on Privacy Guides?
  • I'm not sure its a good idea to recommend in privacy guides if it is a security issue or it breaks things...

  • What are you playing this week?
  • Halo, BOTW, eventually TOTK.

    Gotta enjoy my life before university starts again...

  • Should the ChrisTitus Ultimate Windows Utility be officially recommended on Privacy Guides?
  • Well, he has often had high paying jobs outside YouTube. He started his YouTube channel as an incidental thing. He's not really super reliant on it due to his abilities and resume. I am hopeful he won't jump the shark

  • Should the ChrisTitus Ultimate Windows Utility be officially recommended on Privacy Guides?
  • That's not how it works, actually. Its more sophisticated. The point is to provide easy access to options for a user that doesn't want to root through the guts of a system

    And no, it is more robust than that. This tool doesn't lead to breakage. IT admins use this tool.

    And finally, your last suggestions are beyond the ability of the average user

  • Should the ChrisTitus Ultimate Windows Utility be officially recommended on Privacy Guides?
  • Honestly, we don't deserve some of these good developer folks. We are super lucky to have them.

  • Honestly, I love it for what it is. It nails almost everything I want. Yeah it can get a little hot. Yeah the battery should be improved at some point. But I am 100% happy with what I got.

    Only thing I don't like is certain devs screaming their eyes out about refusing to support Linux, implementing DRM, and that Linux users are 'cheaters' (we are not).

    Its a new market. Embrace it or be left behind, because I am starting to avoid games that don't play nicely with Proton

  • Reddit claimed to have been hacked by BlackCat, and it has threatened to leak the data
  • Maybe some tasty rice. I want to get an instantpot; never had one before but I have heard they are amazing

  • Should the ChrisTitus Ultimate Windows Utility be officially recommended on Privacy Guides?
  • You can get an executable if you prefer. And the code is on github so you can implement what you like

    I do recognize your point about weblinks. But, you can trace what this weblink is going to do, since the code is open source. Nothing has to surprise you

  • Should the ChrisTitus Ultimate Windows Utility be officially recommended on Privacy Guides?
  • Trust me you don't know the half of it. As far as windows goes, it will be bleed your eyeballs off for how good it is.

    Plus, and this is a big thing, you can restore your settings if you nuke something you didn't want. This tool won't bork the system

    Oh yeah it is open source too, of course

  • Should the ChrisTitus Ultimate Windows Utility be officially recommended on Privacy Guides?

    Just wanna take a moment to let people know about a very, very good and reputable tool for privacy and windows. I personally think it should be recommended on the main Privacy Guides site if you use windows. This is not a substitute for using Linux, however.

    Linux is better, but if you have to use Windows, the Chris Titus Tech tool is quite easy to use, extremely powerful, and has been actively developed for a long time. You can set power-user privacy options easily, massively debloat your windows installation, install programs, and easily set your update settings to security only, if that is what you want.

    Just wondering about the communty's and mod's thoughts (like Jonah). I've used the tool for a long time and I am always impressed with it, especially as it comes from somebody who has a sterling reputation on computer and Linux know-how
