From their terms of service:

They (private repos) are also allowed for really small & personal stuff like your journal, config files, ideas or notes, but explicitly not as a personal cloud or media storage.

I'd guess that most private git repositories are small enough to fall under this category (unless you track large non-text files in git). This also seems like a very reasonable policy, considering that they're a non-profit and they want to focus on supporting open source projects.

This might be what you're looking for. When translating between languages other than English (German - Spanish in my case) the data can be a bit lacking but it generally works really well.

Das Problem der Betriebskosten löst man mit dezentralen Messengern aber auch nicht. Pro Nutzer werden die Betriebskosten da tendenziell noch höher sein und viele Leute spenden wahrscheinlich auch eher an eine bekannte Organisation wie die Signal Foundation als an einen kleinen unabhängigen Serverbetreiber.

Selbst bei einer Dividende von 2.500 Euro ändert sich für die untere Hälfte der Bevölkerung nichts am Vermögen. Arme Menschen würden das Geld der Simulation zufolge für bislang ungestillte Konsumbedürfnisse ausgeben, anstatt es zu sparen. Ihr Vermögen wüchse also nicht, der Wohlstand aber schon.

Was ist denn das für ein Argument? Es geht ja nicht darum, dass alle Menschen am Ende möglichst viel Geld in ihrem Bankkonto anhäufen, sondern dass ihr Lebensstandard sich langfristig verbessert. Abgesehen von den (vermutlich nicht allzu vielen) Leuten, die um ein Unternehmen zu gründen oder eine extrem teure Ausbildung zu bezahlen viel Geld auf einmal brauchen, ist eine einmalige Geldspritze dafür ja vermutlich nicht das effektivste Mittel.

No company is just going to host a server for you for free, a (virtual) server for running nextcloud will cost you at least a few bucks a month. As others have already said, you can run a server at home on your own hardware, but this is also not free (hardware cost, electricity, etc.) and you will additionally have to deal with any hardware issues & replacements yourself.

Laut dem Artikel müssten außerdem mindestens 14% der Unfälle durch Radfahrer verursacht sein, obwohl der Unfall auf einem Radweg stattfand (mehr, wenn man davon ausgeht dass Fahrradfahrer bei anderen Unfallorten nicht immer Verursacher sind). Geht es da um Zebrastreifen oder Abbiegespuren? Ansonsten hätten die Fahrradfahrer ja Vorfahrt. Oder zählt der Artikel geteilte Fuß- und Radwege auch als Radwege?

Honestly, instead of trying to remove Snap from Ubuntu, I'd just install another distro (PopOS for example is mostly like Ubuntu but with Flatpak instead of Snap)

I think it's a fairly standard feature. At least Protonmail also supports this kind of "alias".

Are you using the Jerboa client? I think they recently introduced an option to open links in a private tab which is on by default for some reason. It confused me too until I found the setting.

That really depends on how exactly the public broadcasting is funded. In Germany for example, this happens independently from other state expenses so there's no way that the government can directly controll the press. For this reason, the press tends to be critical of all political parties, including the ones currently in government.

I think Plex is not open source but is there any reason against Jellyfin? As far as I know, they also have apps for most smart TVs in case that's what you mean by navigating with a remote.

In my experience, a good way to get a polished desktop with a tiling workflow is to use KDE / GNOME with a few extensions & i3 shortcuts. Unless you really care about customizing every part of your DE, the work of configuring i3 to match a proper DE in terms of polish might not be worth it.

I previously used GNOME with the Forge extension and a few simple extensions for a workspace indicator, disabling the workspace switch animation, etc. This worked quite well but since GNOME is not very configurable, you have to do a lot of that through extensions (e.g. disabling the workspace switch animation & popup). This is particularly annoying since GNOME updates tend to break extensions.

For that reason, I recently switched to KDE. Polonium is a very nice tiling plugin for it. Since KDE is pretty customizable, I didn't really need a lot of other extensions to support my workflow. It's mainly a matter of configuring keyboard shortcuts and a few other settings. I haven't used KDE long enough to say how stable everything is under updates, but from what I've heard it should be a lot better than GNOME.

I personally use NixOS and Home Manager with the Plasma Manager module for KDE. It's a steep learning curve but if you have fun learning new stuff it is worth it in my opinion.

Otherwise, a GNOME / KDE tiling setup will probably also be mostly reproducible if you just track your dot files. There's always a bit of manual configuration but it's also difficult to completely avoid that with NixOS (although probably possible).
