Why? There’s a bunch of different possibilities that can happen directly related to NG+. The game feels like it’s meant to be played endlessly with it.

Check out Kavita! It sounds perfect for what you’re doing and I have had literally 0 issues using all of their built-in features. It’s a surprisingly stable and full-fledged open-source product.

I would go back if it was easy. The speed difference from just getting a listing of contents in a large directory over SMB is insane. It used to be instant and it takes like 10-15 seconds now. I’m not even using their app setup anymore, I gave up on it after a while because of a bunch of random issues with updates over time and switched to a dedicated box with Portainer installed. I really wish I could go back to core.

I’m sure they’ll iron everything out but BSD is still king at the moment.

I was addicted to coding with Comic Mono and ended up purchasing Comic Code. No regrets.

My player (Roon) does not support ListenBrainz scrobbling and it’s always really bothered me. I just set multi-scrobbler up and I’m so happy. Thanks for linking it!

OP, if you don’t mind paying and self-hosting I highly recommend Roon ARC.

What I meant was assigning multiple tags (like “tech”, “security”, “foss”, etc) automatically to posts in a feed instead of needing to manually assign them to each article. So if I then want to filter all posts with “security” and “foss” I could choose those two tags to get the filtered results. Can it do that?

I really like Trilium. It’s basically a FOSS Obsidian. It does not have a phone app but the web interface is mobile-friendly.

This post got me to try out selfoss but after it being pretty buggy and unable to fetch 50% of the feeds I was interested in, I looked elsewhere. I wanted to install Tiny Tiny RSS but the instructions weren’t my thing. Finally, I settled on FreshRSS and I love it. All the feeds work. The only complaint I have is that, at least it seems, you need to manually add labels to each article and instead just put a feed under a category. I wish I could put feeds under any amount of labels or categories I want. Maybe there’s an extension for it that I have not seen yet.

Yeah, it wasn’t always. I got it when it was cheaper.

So if I’m on a self-hosted matrix server I could join rooms in any number of other matrix servers (just like joining communities across Lemmy instances)? That’s a game-changer if that’s the case. I have no idea how to do that within Element.

Serious question, can you join multiple homeservers yet? Having an account tied to one server is a massive drawback compared to Discord. I tried Cinny earlier and currently use Element with my friends but I don’t think that feature exists.

I use Roon ARC to self-host my library. It is paid, but, I bought the lifetime subscription because there is really no other music app that has the features Roon has.

Other than that, I have HiBy R3 Pro that is useless for Bluetooth, and when I’m hiking I want Bluetooth.

The pictures folder on my instance is at 1.3GB after two days. It’s just me and my friend. About how many communities are you subscribed to?

In the grand scheme of things this isn’t a big deal. If you’re not using some kind of RAID parity system I guess I wouldn’t mind the notification. I think it is probably overkill, though. Just seems like they want everyone that’s had a hard drive for three years to buy a new one. The fact that some drives that are still under warranty show the warning is sketchy.

• Lemmy Instance

• Jellyfin - Movies/TV Shows
• Roon / Roon ARC - Music
• OneDev - Used to use Gitlab but couldn’t afford the self-hosted instance anymore and want the paid features, which this mostly has.
• Dokuwiki - Used to use as a wiki, switched to…
• Trilium - Similar to Obsidian but open source.
• Kavita - Comics/books
• TubeArchivist - YouTube video downloader/viewer
• PodGrab - Podcast manager
• Wallabag - Website article saver/bookmarker etc. If anyone has a better suggestion for FOSS bookmark management please let me know!
• Mealie - Recipe manager (grabs recipes from a ton of different sites)

I use TrueNAS Scale for my NAS and Ubuntu server for my VM’s/home server. I probably am forgetting something, but, that’s what’s listed in my Portainer :).

It was super easy. I just edited the config file in the Ansible playbook and needed to edit the certbot task because I use Cloudflare but other than that it was a breeze.

Well, as you mentioned before it’s to enjoy the “technical aspect”, which could be many reasons. For one, if the instance you signed up on shuts down there goes your account with it. I feel better self-hosting because I am in control of when/if it shuts down.

You can set your instance to private and close registrations, which is what I am doing. That way you can use it only for yourself and a few friends and still be connected to the fediverse. The communities that you make on your self-hosted instance wouldn’t be connected, though.
