Emperor , to fediverse in Is there a way to personalize your feed?
@Emperor@feddit.uk avatar

Slide has multireddit and, I presume, this would be a feature for Lemmy too.once it’s up and running. It’s still in an alpha release state.at the moment.

I guess they’re above a dartboard in a pub. Maybe I’ll look around.

Yubishi , to fediverse in Discussion: Do you think recent Twitter mess up will cause new wave of #TwitterMigration?

I believe this will increase the fediverse population, but ultimately I see a new centralized service emerging soon. Though, I do hope the fediverse becomes the prominent place for social content!

jonne ,

A lot of people seem to be going to blue sky, but I don’t really see what the point is of moving to something else that’s run by a single company again. Mastodon seems better when it comes to future proofing.

Their resistance to anything that resembles a discovery algorithm kind of sucks tho. I know they can be bad in the wrong hands, but it would be nice to see who else is on there and what everyone is talking about.

Mastodon is very stable and just excellent.

spaduf , to fediverse in Discussion: Do you think recent Twitter mess up will cause new wave of #TwitterMigration?

I don’t see how it doesn’t. I think the scenario in which Twitter survives through the end of the year is pretty much impossible at this point without significant outside financial intervention.

Which…. Unfortunately I could see happening

noUsernamesLef7 , to piracy in What do you use to actually manage your stuff?

For managing my library on disk, I just recently made the effort to set up the *arr apps. I love having the metadata, tagging, organizing, and file naming all consistent and automated. Previously I used mp3tag and filebot to manage them and it was way more manual. Everything is set up with docker-compose and Ansible.

Library file stuff:

  • Two Radarr instances, one for 4k and another for lower resolutions
  • Sonarr for TV
  • Lidarr for music
  • Two readarr instances, one for epub/pdf and one for audiobooks
  • Jackett
  • deluge+openVPN

For library frontend stuff:

  • Jellyfin for movies, tv, music, audiobooks
  • Plex, for when Jellyfin is acting up
  • Jellyseer for TV & movie requests
  • LaunchBox for videogames and emulators
  • Calibre + calibreWeb for ebooks & syncing to my Kobo eReader

Haven’t set up yet:

  • flaresolverr
  • unpackerr
  • audiobookshelf

Doesn’t exist yet/wishlist:

  • *arr app for emulator ROMs (I’ll have to check out romm, looks pretty cool!)

Same here! Let’s all get on BlueSky and get people to join Lemmy!

Nugget_in_biscuit , to fediverse in Discussion: Do you think recent Twitter mess up will cause new wave of #TwitterMigration?

The problem with Mastodon is that they don’t have very many major entities actively making posts. The main thing I track on twitter is OSINT and US politics, and that community basically doesn’t exist on Mastodon right now

@slicedcheesegremlin@kbin.social avatar

That explains why it feels so empty, I can't find any actual content on Mastodon despite how huge it supposedly is compared to Kbin and Lemmy

@ttmrichter@lemmy.world avatar

What you call a problem I call a relief. I’m tired of the cult of celebrity that corporate social media foists.

Nugget_in_biscuit ,

To each their own. I’m glad you enjoy mastodon

ttmrichter ,
@ttmrichter@lemmy.world avatar

To each their own.

Indeed. That’s one of the gratifying things about the deaths of all the billionaire-owned sites. It’s giving room to breathe for those of us who don’t want their vision of a future of humanity on their knees before them servicing them.

Very_Bad_Janet ,

I follow some major news sources on Mastodon (Reuters, NYT, WaPo, Guardian, and more). Im in NYC so I also follow transit alerts, one of the main reasons I had previously used Twitter.

tr00st , to nostupidquestions in Lemmy vs kbin?

As a self-hoster, I attempted installs of both. They both had somewhat broken installation guides for Docker installs. Spent a night failing to get kbin running and pivoted and for Lemmy working in a couple of hours. Wish I had some big fancy reason, but kbin was just shortly more of a pain to sort.

This post is still making me mildly infuriated so I’ll allow it.

Everblue ,

I thought I was going crazy or just didn’t know how to make this app work properly.

collegefurtrader ,

Angry upvote!

appropriateinside , to nostupidquestions in So how long until the Fediverse is monetized?

Don’t even mention how risky it is having various people running the servers themselves.

Security? Backups? Due diligence? Ability to pay? Awol?

All different person to person.

Idk a good solution, but the fediverse has big problems to solve. One of which is that instances are single servers, there is no distributed compute model, which means they crumple under load and can only scale so far. Not to mention the unsustainable costs that start coming with it…

If Lemmy in general grows to the user base of reddit, infrastructure costs(if it was optimized via scale) would be in the tens of millions/year. Given that it’s a hogepoge of mixed providers using expensive AF hosting probably hundreds of millions.

TheLurker ,

Account one day old with the first comment being about how the Fediverse is fundamentally flawed and wrought with risk. Further general fear mongering and lack of understanding how the technology works.

Found the Reddit marketing team. Please be sure to pass on to spez our most sinsere get fucked sentiment.

appropriateinside ,

Instead of having a technical and factual discussion about it, let’s instead attack people!

No one here needs your flavor of toxicity…

If you can’t attack the argument or idea, attacking the person to rub your ego is a pretty toxic and nonproductive thing to do.

It’s your choice to be offended and to respond aggressively instead of treating it as a discussion on how we can improve the platform, what deficiencies are concerning, and how those will affect the users and instance owners.

TheLurker ,

Oh please. Don’t try and play the victim card here. You roll into this place with clearly no understanding of the Fediverse or Federated services and general and start spewing hyperbole and engaging in general fear mongering.

Then you cry foul when you get called out on it. Don’t for a minute think your tired old cliche of making inflammatory statements then playing victim will wash for even one second.

appropriateinside ,

M8, I’m not here to have slap fights with people like you.

You clearly are talking in bad faith, you claim I’m making inflammatory despite you failing, entirely, twice now, to attack my argument and not me.

And after pushing you to not be an ass, here you are again, being an ass. How about you try and engage on the topic, instead of stooping to interpersonal politics?

I have little idea, yeah, that’s why I’m actually talking about it to kick off some conversation that either shows me why/how I’m wrong or otherwise increases my understanding. You have done neither, you have no leg to stand on to complain there as you have done nothing about it.

Perhaps you are unfamiliar with technical conversation and common discourse/argument? Because toxicity is not how you carry one on.

TheLurker ,

I’m talking in bad faith? Says the person who comes in swinging then instantly shifts to victim mode.

You didn’t have an idea, you had an accusation. That accusation was called out, slapped down and now you are trying to build some narrative about being some “poor defenseless commentary just looking to discussed and idea”. Bullshit!

I’m done with you. Truth is where it needs to be. Your attempt to slander the Fediverse failed. Learn to live with your failures.

IcedCoffeeBitch , to gaming in What games would you recommend for someone that only recently got into gaming?

The Mario RPG franchise is very good actually, Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga and Super Mario RPG being my favorites. I’ve heard good things about Paper Mario too.

Oh and the Earthbound series is very good too, but the Mario franchise is more beginner friendly.

sincle354 ,

If they’re on PC, you can always emulate these. If you have steamdeck or something I would happily recommend Mario and Luigi: Bowser’s Inside Story as the pinnacle of the M&L series IMO.

contextual_somebody , to showerthoughts in If we call reddit users redditors, what do we call lemmy users

Limburgers

DannyDeck , to android in How does everyone feel about Sony (+Ericsson) Phones?

I used my Z3 Tablet Compact until it fell apart. I would buy an updated one the very second it was announced.

Overall, I wish Sony was actually competing. It really feels like HQ just forgot this tiny division exists so they keep making phones that feel designed for the idiosyncrasies of the people that work there rather than the market at large. That should be good for a place like here, but they’re so uncompetitive on price.

Also what’s the shorthand here? L/Android?

Yes. Can we get back to talking about Sony phones now?
