I’m currently running Nicotine+ on my PC for audio downloading, and it works great. However, if I want to download some music on another device, I have to remote in, download the album I want, and then transfer the files to the other device. Since my mobile reception is not very good where I work, I download music to listen...

This is just a small public service announcement to inform users that 1 Host Pro blocks a GoogleAPI subdomain that blocks Google Play Services and subsequently notifications. 1 Host Lite doesn’t have the problem and the issue doesn’t affect devices which aren’t in the 8 series. I was pulling my hair out before I figured...

Looking for some recommendations on tech communities for Lemmy!

Hey, so my friend asked me which distro i can recommend for him. He basically used Windows his whole life. The recent developments of Microsoft though seems to worry him, so he want to give Linux a try....

If I try to edit text I have typed out, it is very difficult. It’s impossible to place the caret in the middle of a word and difficult to place it between. Very frustrating and I don’t understand why.

Hi all!...

Hi, currently I have a almost none backups and I want to change them. I have a PC with Nextcloud on 500gb ssd that I also use for gaming (1tb system drive). Nextcloud would be used to store/sync images, documents, contacts, and calendar from my phone and laptop. I also have an old pc that has 2x 80gb, 120gb, 320gb, and 500gb...

Basically the title. Loving PopOS as my daily, but I understand that PopOS uses their own process and makes sure that only a checked driver gets wide release. Great for stability, less great for playing games that just came out. Is there a distro that this community generally recommends for gaming?

I recently built a new pc and since I switched from Windows to Lunux (Kubuntu) I got an amd gpu (6700 XT). Because people told me it is less of a hassle than Nvidia. It works fine out of the box, but the choice of drivers confuse me. For gaming is the default amdgpu good enough? Is amdgpu-pro the same as the official Radeon...

I am honestly kinda curious how exactly you manage your servers and keep them up to date, I feel like there is a linux patch every week or so, which would usually require a reboot. Do you all deploy live patching, how you become aware of critical stuff in your otherwise busy lives, RSS?

I am running Sway on Debian 12 and I just can’t succeed in theming QT Flatpaks. The system is in a dark theme but all the QT Flatpaks are using a light theme. I tried a bunch of overrides ans exposes the .themes folder in my home after copying all the themes. Nothing seems to work. Did anyone succeed in theming these apps in a...

Hello! I have a bunch of photos all mixed together, and I’d like to sort them out in order to better find the ones I’m searching for without loosing half an hour. I was thinking of adding custom tags to each image (manually), like “my dog”, “trip to Paris”, “my friend X” etc. I’d like this tag system to be...

My Nextcloud instance runs reasonably well on the server side, and my desktop and phone are able to render the web UI reasonably fast when I want to…but I also have a tablet with slow hardware and wifi that is just unusably slow with the Nextcloud web UI. Like, it’ll take multiple seconds to render the login page, but only...

What purposes do you use Best Buy/Big Box electronic stores? Do you try items before you buy them in-person or online? Do you shop in-store for products? Are you a purely online shopper? I make an effort to patronize small companies, but when it comes to electronics, I frequently buy reconditioned computers and other items from...

I’m reading the ActivityPub spec here and it seems pretty fit for client-to-server communications. Yeah, it might be somewhat bulkier than your typical rest api, but it’s more universal, which begs the question: why do mastodon and lemmy both decided to implement custom (and incompatible) APIs for their clients to talk to...
