And that’s why my rule is: if it doesn’t container it doesn’t go on my server. If I can’t get the application crammed into my docker compose stack I look for an alternative. Hell I run PiHole and Octoprint inside container
I prefer physical books for the most part but I have a hard time justifying their cost when I own an ereader.
I like listening to audiobooks when I’m out and about but I find I’ll occasionally miss the odd sentence when I get distracted or forget to pause when I take my headphones off which leads to me skipping around trying to find where I was at.
Sorry that happened, but I have to assume this isn’t the first time you’ve been ostracized for it, right? Lemmy is just another group of people, same as everywhere.
This is just my personal opinion. The 2 day blackout for me, never meant for people to pack their bags and leave Reddit entirely. It's not a very easy task to do, and honestly, there is still lots of contents and friends back in reddit. Reddit can be sure that lots of people will simply come back, and spez will grinning while working his way to his beloved IPO.
However, the 2 day blackout has opened a new world of alternatives to Reddit. Now people know other places and other communities that can replace Reddit as a whole. Yes, Reddit will still be an influential website. Yes, Reddit will still be money driven. Yes, spez will not budge. But we can.
To me, Reddit will not crash, burn and crushed to ash. But rather, it's either went the FB way, relying to lots of ads and ~~older demographics ~~ low-literacy to sustain, or simply becoming Myspace or Digg, a distant memory that's only in name.
relying to lots of ads and older demographics low-literacy masses to sustain
FIFY
Among the "older demographics" there are the most "nerdy" people, those born when personal computers and the internet didn't exist, those growing up together with technology, used to a world when corporations didn't destroy the good of sharing knowledge.
Those are the people most likely to rebel to what reddit is doing and find their way out if it, because they know it's possible, because they've seen it before.
Youngest people are used to how the world is nowadays because it's all they've seen, but they can be shown the difference if they're willing to listen.
Low-literacy masses are those who don't listen because they don't care, people of that sort exist in every age "range" and are unfortunately the majority of content "consumers", that's why Facebook(/Instagram/WhatsApp) doesn't die, and Reddit won't either most probably.
Reddit relies on user generated content, so it if the few users who actually generate entertaining stuff take their business elsewhere it will go the way of Myspace and DIgg. Because there is already a Facebook for old people.
I just tried to click on a couple links formatted in various ways from a “jerboa for lemmy” app and it redirected to a browser (where I am not logged in).
Is there a format friendly to the app, or is there a app config that needs to be updated?
I have never used the Jerboa app so take this all with a grain of salt, since it may be different than the website. The link with the [link text](/c/[email protected]) should only work if the community is already linked with your instance, the two other formats can be put in the search bar, and after the instance fetches it, it should show up, but not sure how this all works on the app version though
Has this place officially become a true Linux community? Did we just have the first X vs Wayland thread?!
That said, I use Wayland on all my machines, but I don’t have Nvidia hardware. I suggest just using X11 until Nvidia manages to do the needful. Personally I enjoy using wayland, things run so smoothly, I have zero issues with games and the only application I used that broke was Barrier, but I just used it for my Steam Deck and that problem is solved with SSH.
Currently running on an old HP Prodesk G2 with Debian 11:
Actual Budget : personal finance & budgeting
Dashy : dashboard
Jupyter : web-based use of jupyter notebooks for data analysis
Photoprism : photo library
I use FolderSync on mine and my wife’s phones to backup photos to photoprism nightly via WebDAV
mariadb : metadata storage for photoprism
Pihole : for ad blocking on the network
Traefik : proxies access to all services
Plus grafana and prometheus for monitoring, although I haven’t fully configured them so they’re not terribly useful at the moment.
All are running as rootless docker containers. I’ve considered switching back to normal rooted containers, since there are some oddities with file permissions and networking (e.g., pihole only sees one client IP address).
No complaints so far–my requirements and expectations for it were pretty minimal to begin with. Face recognition is decent although I have to regularly go in and correct a lot of unknown faces from time to time.
Only thing that bugs me currently is having to log in every time. I’d really like a remember-me option.
In my opinion all games that can be played solo should have an offline mode. Personally I have an excellent internet connection but I hate having to depend on servers to be able to play the game that I bought.
The thing about always online is that the servers often crap out, especially during launch or during major patches. That just annoys the hell out of me.
Got a Pi 4 (Raspberry Pi OS) set with an USB3 HDD with Systemd mount dependency for the following services:
Plex for movies and music
Samba for a shared network drive
Transmission
Planning for:
PiHole (DNS adblocker)
Jellyfin as a backup
Nginx Proxy Server (since my Nodejs Express Proxy project failed miserably)
I configured it for mobility since I am always moving with it, so this is why the Systemd dependency is very handy. Also, its wifi connection defaults to my hotspot when not at home.
I also got 3 Pi3Bs remaining from an old Kube cluster project with HypriotOS, but I didn’t know what to do with them and it pains me to renew the cluster certificates
The Reddit blackout got me to delete my 12 1/2 year old account. Then I jumped into Lemmy to give it a try and I really like the potential. Spez has made a bad error in judgement basically to fill his wallet. The platform was built by a community and should be owned by that same community.
