  • I always go with the following strategy:

    • Tons of public transport to ensure that local commute doesn’t have to rely on cars. In general, if I start to get the feeling that I need to place a highway in the city to solve the congestion problem, then I look what route is under served by public transport.
      • Buses or trams (if I want to be fancy) for shorter routes, metro for longer distances.
      • Passenger trains for inter-city and longest local transport.
      • Cargo trains in industrial hubs, but careful with those, as they tend to generate a lot of traffic when trucks come and go. I usually do some sort of a traffic sponge (one-way road that leads only to the cargo train station) for trucks to wait without blocking other traffic.
    • I use highways sparingly and only for longer distances, like connections between cities. I try to build them outside of the city, so it would also act as a bypass - the cars which are not going into my city but through it won’t generate traffic in the city itself this way.


    1. Wybierasz sobie klienta - z mojej strony polecam Dino lub Gajim na kompa, Conversations lub jeden z jego forków (np. Monocles) na Androida,
    2. Wybierasz sobie serwer. disroot.org jest spoko, możesz też poprzeglądać listę niektórych serwerów tu: https://list.jabber.at/
    3. Zakładasz konto i używasz ☺ Na niektórych serwerach możesz założyć konto przez klienta, na innych musisz przez przeglądarkę (w celach antyspamowych).

    Lista różnych publicznych kanałów rozmów grupowych (nie wszystkie sympatyczne afaik): https://search.jabber.network/

    Ewentualnie dla leniwych / do przekabacania znajomych którym skończy się cierpliwość w połowie punktu pierwszego: https://quicksy.im/ . Od autora Conversations, logujesz się numerem telefonu, możesz znajdować innych też po numerze, nie ma wyboru serwerów itp (ale wszystko i tak jest open source). Ale pod spodem jest zwykłe XMPP i możesz rozmawiać z użytkownikami z innych serwerów.


  • I personally switched from NextCloud to Syncthing.

    Syncthing:

    • is easier for me to maintain,
    • allows for the “server” to be behind NAT,
    • lets me have multiple “servers” at the same time (eg. something at home and a VPS)
    • lets me have certain “servers” set as untrusted, so all data on them is encrypted, while others can have it unencrypted for easier access I put “server” in quotes, as Syncthing doesn’t really have a server, all clients are equal peers.

    On the other hand, NextCloud:

    • gives me a way to share files by link with others,
    • lets me browse files via a web interface,
    • mobile app lets me access files as I need them instead of having to synchronize everything.
