I chose my instance because of the admin (Stux). Basically, I knew that I could trust that it would be well run and have great moderation standards. It’s a small server for now and pretty sleepy. Most of my subscriptions are from lemmy.world and a few other larger servers but it doesn’t matter. I guess “local” might be less useful but that doesn’t bother me. I can say that, over the two weeks I’ve been here, I haven’t experienced any sort of performance issues or downtime.
The one case where I could see it being important is creating new communities – it’s probably more likely to have one take off on a larger server.
Just making sure I understand the ask here. You’re currently running Plex & a torrent client off of your laptop, and using the Plex app on your TV to connect to your Plex server running on your laptop?
I’m going to treat this as a simple guide of where I would start if I was just starting again.
You’re going to need two things, a completely separate PC, usually an Intel NUC, to run all of these services with docker on Linux. Then you’ll need storage. Most users start out with a simple 2 or 4 bay NAS, that connects over the network to your other machine (Plex server)
If you don’t want to tinker with all of that and get straight to the point, build yourself your own computer that has a case for multiple 3.5inch HDD drives, then install unRAID on it. There’s your perfect media server right there. I’ve been running that setup for years without it breaking a sweat.
Let me know if you want me to elaborate on these details
I also use floccus. It‘s good for what it is, but I‘m still searching for something that would allow me to easily reorganize this huge pile of bookmarks I‘ve accumulated.
It offers a good bookmark manager. Easy to create folders and subfolders, drag n drop works smoothly and I think Vivaldi is the best chromebased briwser. I use it on all devices, Windows, Fedora and Android 😊
I can’t get my second browser to connect to my existing account. I set up using Chrome, but in the Firefox extension it says “No Accounts Here” when I go into the Addon options. I don’t see any way to connect to an existing account. I only see “New account” or the import button which leads to
“Import a file with exported accounts here to re-create accounts exported on a different device or browser. Please make sure to set the correct sync folders again after importing.”
I found a few podcasters I listen to and looked to see who they follow. There are a lot of tech people on there.
I also follow a few sites like Hacker News.
I also follow hashtags of my city and favorite sports teams. I just used the search function to find them and also watched what was on many of the posts I like.
My feed is now more than I can realistically keep up with.
I use the Ivory app, so there is a Trending feed. Sometimes I just read it.
True. However good on you guys for stepping up to the plate and at least attempting to be there for your family member. It sucks that sometimes you aren't equipped to deal with the situation, whatever it was, but you have to look out for your own kids first here.
