I installed this after seeing your v1 post and already got use out of it resizing some images on mobile. The only thing I noticed as lacking was a multiple file selector, so this is a great first update!

With just a single account on ~~any~~ most Lemmy server(s) you can read and write ~~everything~~ most things everywhere else.

Click on the "all" button and you'll see content from ~~all~~ some subreddits on ~~all~~ some servers.

I know I am nit-picking, but this over-selling of federation as if it "just works" and takes no manual effort almost drove me away when I first joined. It did and still does drive me away from Mastodon, but Lemmy is not as problematic.

At any rate, I know we don't want to overload new users with talks of defederation and unfederated content, but pretending it doesn't exist makes for a very frustrating time the first time someone realises they can't see 50% of the posts or thinks Lemmy as a whole is really quiet when it's because their server isn't federated 100% with every other server.

Paywall article 🤮

Came here to say something similar because it's important to recognise that this likely is not out of the kindness of their hearts. But I don't think there's any reason to talk down potential allies either.

Everything is an SUV now... :(

I see it in the default WebUI, perhaps whatever app you're using doesn't support it?

I added a cheap PCI 4 slot NVMe expansion card and a couple of SSDs for a new pool and then migrated all the database-heavy stuff over to it. Required some use of local ZFS send/receive which I didn't know was possible, but it has gone smooth so far. Very happy with it! It no longer sounds like my HDD pool is trying to escape from hell and some of the services are much snappier, especially Bitmagnet. I'd highly recommend it as an upgrade for anyone still running purely HDDs. I thought I could get away with it but ZFS speeds are no faster than single drives and the amount of stuff I had was hammering it non-stop.

I also bought my own domain finally to escape the free-tier dynamic DNS woes and I can finally feel good about sharing links with other people. I slapped a file share container with disabled registrations on a sub domain. I put it all behind free tier Cloudflare to hide my server's IP, it took a little bit of learning what the different records are but so far much easier than I thought. Although I have yet to do the hardest part of setting up dynamic IP for my DNS records. I see a bunch of scripts floating around, but none seem that easy or well-maintained...

Oh, and the PI I've had running Pi-Hole v5 for god knows how long with no maintenance couldn't run Tailscale, so I wiped the entire thing to start fresh and got it up and running with Pi-Hole v6, Tailscale, and Unbound. I like having these separated from my other services as they are more critical to have at all times and I have had 100% uptime with my Pi so far. Although I chose Dietpi for my OS on a whim because it looked interesting and am not sold on it. I like that it has easy software installs with sane defaults so I probably saved time overall, but the amount of time I spent debugging the weird choices Dietpi made for basic shit like networking options really threw me off.

I guarantee you you can and eventually will if this platform lives on. Not to mention user propoganda is not exactly much better. Keep your brain on and don't believe any platform to be immune to garbage because they never are.

I find better luck finding addresses when adding a comma between the house number and street name. i.e "123, James Road".

I just wish more of the non-US ones supported .ca domains. :(

Forced transcoding should be an option in every Jellyfin client, but definitely the most needed on Roku. Banger update.

This is going to really help government efficiency!

Title, basically. I know I have issues, but I couldn't say if it's depression, ADD, or just general problems. Is the only reason to have a diagnosis so you know what to work on, or are there other benefits such as easier access to therapy?

My question is meant specifically for Canada, but feel free to chip in from other countries. :)

According to the home owner:

We live on a 90* corner intersection with a major street and this guy flew around it at probably 40-50mph. Hit my neighbors car so hard it ended up in their yard facing the other way. Both cars totaled, driver ran off on foot. 11 AM on a Sunday morning.

And the aftermath:
