dustojnikhummer , to nostupidquestions in Why does it feel like we're at a point where every social media + other digital media are making shitty decisions and falling apart?

Because most services we are using aren’t sustainable. They all bleed money.

That’s by design, isn’t it? Dominate the market while operating at a loss then monetize once you have attained monopoly. Like Uber’s strategy. This is an awful way of conducting a business IMHO, it falsifies the economy. I honestly believe they should put severe regulations on this.

dragontamer ,

Ish.

It is a strategy that works when interest rates are 0%, and the 2008 recession was so bad that the IS Fed kept interest rates low until 2021.

Redo the math at 5% interest rates today and 13 years of $1 Billion investment needs to make $1.8 billion just to break even. Money losing strategies are nerfed in this new meta.

Hello there! Please don’t forget to include a “Why YSK:” in your post’s body text :)

+1, it might be better fit in the TIL community.

stevedave , to selfhosted in Podman is awesome—and totally frustrating

I’ve used podman on an RHEL server at work because it works nicely with selinux. I had a hell of a time with rootless containers and network throughput when using an nginx reverse proxy. Made the site painfully slow. Turned out it was due to the slirp4netns rootless networking and MTU size. Just decided to say screw the rootless thing and went rootfull. Next time honestly would just use docker since it’s more common

Teeth.

PriorProject , to selfhosted in Self hosting lemmy: does it support subpath URLs?

I don’t know if lemmy supports sub-paths, I’ve never seen a lemmy hosted at one though. If it doesn’t nginx definitely supports vhosts. So a single server/vm/container can definitely respond both at my.host.com and lemmy.host.com with appropriate content.

+1 to using a subdomain. You’ll probably have a much better time even if you get a path working.

Skelectus , to nostupidquestions in Is there a preferred Lenny iPad app?
@Skelectus@suppo.fi avatar

There’s Mlem, but I think it’s only for iphone.

mithis ,

There’s also Memmy, but I think it might also be iOS only.

dan980 ,

On the iPad, it’s way better than Mlem. It’s optimized for the larger resolution.

@clueless_stoner@lemmy.world avatar

Lol on a serious note though, if it takes too much of your time, you might want to consider some additional activities for spending your time :) your mental health is much more important than Lemmy ^

nieceandtows , to selfhosted in Pokemon is driving me to want a Plex Server.

For me it’s because all these companies hate Linux for some reason. I have Amazon prime, Hulu, HBO max, and Apple TV, but they would only show sd if I’m on Linux.

3laws ,

That is a user agent thing.

CoderKat ,
@CoderKat@kbin.social avatar

AFAIK, it's an HDCP thing (DRM), not user agent.

3laws ,

Really? Fuck em. It was easy to just change the user agent some while ago. So if I try it in 4k monitor, it won’t work‽

zekiz ,

yes. Fuck DRM

adj16 , to selfhosted in Pokemon is driving me to want a Plex Server.

Yo, I already have Plex set up. I can add Pokémon and invite you if you want as long as you don’t need 99.9% uptime, I’m just some dude :)

capwiz ,

"I'm just some dude"

I relate to this so hard.

GeekFTW , to selfhosted in Pokemon is driving me to want a Plex Server.
@GeekFTW@kbin.social avatar

Dooooo ittttt!

Edit: Forgot to add the useful comment.

Honestly if you're just starting out, straight up use your existing computer, plug that HDD in, load her up and just follow the instructions or a guide to set it up. Wait to see how much you use it before spending cash.

A recommendation however: Due to how Pokemon is and how Plex's two available metadata sources (TVDB and TMDB) categorize and lay the show out differently, make sure when you are getting the episodes in Plex that you have the TV show matched to TMDB (TheMovieDataBase), not TVDB (TheTVDataBase). Both have the show, but TVDB lumps a lot of the later seasons/series together, whereas TMDB will keep them separate as the correct seasons.

RufusFirefly , to nostupidquestions in I personally dont but why do you think ppl care so much about being downvoted on internet chat forums?
@RufusFirefly@lemmy.world avatar

Probably because they tie it to their own personal self-image or self-worth. Of course, in the grand scheme of things, downvotes are virtual and don’t mean a thing in the real world.

UnicornKitty ,
@UnicornKitty@lemmy.world avatar

But people give it value, therefore it does have meaning in the real world. The act generates a feeling in someone, and it says “I don’t like what you just said.” People want to be liked.

taladar , to fediverse in Towards a #Peopleverse

Honestly, the people focus is what always put me off both Twitter and Mastodon. I want a focus on topics, not people. Everyone who can contribute something in a decent tone is welcome to the discussion but who is discussing things doesn’t really matter.

For that reason I don’t really like the term Peopleverse or even using Fediverse when you just mean the threaded conversation parts of it.

I want as little to do with the people focussed social media models like Facebooks, Instragram, Twitter,…

where_am_i , to selfhosted in Pokemon is driving me to want a Plex Server.

find a paid plexshare. Cheaper than Netflix, has everything, no weekends wasted on being a devops

p.s. sorry I didn’t look where I’m posting. I’ma open notselfhosted

RedWizard OP ,
@RedWizard@lemmygrad.ml avatar

Haha this comment is keeping it real. That’s a good point. I’ve never looked into a plexshare before. I’ll have to look it up.

KidsTryThisAtHome ,
@KidsTryThisAtHome@lemmy.world avatar

There are also free ones, BUT they’re a lot harder to get into, and a lot of times don’t have as much content or aren’t managed as well. They do exist if you’re patient though, I managed to get into a pretty good one a while back.

Cantstopthesignal , to startrek in Did this site live and die in 4 days?
@Cantstopthesignal@lemmynsfw.com avatar

I can’t believe the negativity coming from the /r/startrek community regarding the blackout and the idea of switching to Lemmy. Forging a new brighter future free of corporate control should fit into the Star Trek ideals of every fan.
