Anyone else think we need a new unofficial desktop client? I don’t think the main one gets that many updates anymore. The last couple of updates were just to make it work with 10.9.x. There are 312 open issues. I wish I had the ability to help merge PR’s. Not that it’s a buggy mess, but some updates would be nice. Glad to see we get plenty of contending mobile apps though.
Thank you for the compilation, I’ll take a look at these.
My group is on Teamspeak. They are supposedly adding it this year, but it’s been radio silence for months.
You’re right, thanks.
Good perspective, thanks.
That’s fair. I’m making the comparison to other hobbies. If someone is not interested in roller skating, but decides to try it out because one of their friends really likes it and invites them, they may find they enjoy it… or not, which in that case they won’t go again, which is fine. Alternatively, they find a new hobby they enjoy, and selfhosting could give skills that turn into a potential career, but that’s if they really enjoy it. I don’t think it’s uncommon for friend groups to have outsiders (me) and “force” them into trying new things, but maybe my comparison doesn’t hold up here as this is a bit less about socializing.
Would you be willing to explain what a typed dictionary is and when it would be useful in the context of Godot?
Haven’t tested it, but I’m hoping Kodi works well. I’m waiting on my Vero V to arrive, which comes with OSMC (FOSS linux distro made to run Kodi).
I have no issues with Jellyfin + Symfonium, but I also cache my songs offline. I almost never play a track that hasn’t been downloaded.
I’ve had issues with duckdns failing over the past year or so (their server going down - outages). I guess it could be something on my side, but it happened often enough that I switched to my own domain. Haven’t had any outages since, and I can use subdomains now for routing.
100% Symfonium is awesome.
I haven’t built one myself, but you could look into TrueNas.
I looked into nginx for minecraft, but minecraft doesn’t use http headers, so I’d have to open minecraft ports on the router. Would this alleviate that? What’s the difference between this setup and using something like a cloudflare tunnel? Obviously, there is still some reliance on Cloudflare.
For backup power, you got like a generator for the server, or the whole building?
I was thinking what if we switched to a fediverse Youtube replacement, such as PeerTube. However, I don’t think this would work. For one, because there are no ads, there’s no money being made, and creators would have to be backed by donations. Not sure how much money that would bring in.
Additionally, the difference between a “creator” on lemmy/subreddit (creating a community) vs a “creator” on youtube (uploads videos) is that I can be a creator without hosting an instance here. Looks like if I wanted to upload videos to PeerTube, I’d need to make my own instance or pay for one. Maybe if there was an option to select an instance just like here on lemmy, but videos take waaayy more disk space and processing to stream than text and a few images. Could be cool to host yourself though.
So if I made my own Lemmy instance, and subscribed to !selfhosted, does that mean if Lemmy.world went down, the !selfhosted community is still up?
For those on Jellyfin, there’s a plugin that can pull lyrics from lrclib. Not sure how it exactly compares to this, but it works for me.
