This is news to me! Thanks for enlightening me!

It also doesn’t function without JavaScript. If you’re security or privacy conscious chances are not zero that you have JS disabled, in which case this presents a roadblock.

On the flip side of things, if you are a creator and you’d prefer to not make use of JS (there’s dozens of us) then forcing people to go through a JS “security check” feels kind of shit. The alternative is to just take the hammering, and that feels just as bad.

No hate on Anubis. Quite the opposite, really. It just sucks that we need it.

I appreciate verbosity. It’s much nicer than the opposite.

Oh they update a lot. The clients have gotten really snappy, which is nice because browsing photos felt a bit cumbersome before. There’s now automatic albums and facial recognition, if you opt in to that. Was going to say that there’s no editing tool but there is. It’s quite basic though, three tabs, crop, transform (rotate, flip, resize), and colours (brightness, contrast, saturation, and blur for some reason lmao).

There’s also a bunch of sharing features. You could share images or albums directly, or even create embeds for if you have a portfolio website. I pretty much only use it as a backup service though.

I guess they fill different niches. I use Ente for the e2ee, that’s pretty important to me. Immich definitely seems more like a drop in Google Photos alternative, I just use software on my computer to do that instead.

Ente is also open source and can be self-hosted.

My bank’s app recently went like “We’ve implemented a feature if you use our widget, and also one hidden feature.” Like fucking just tell me what the fuck that’s about? I’m not looking for easter eggs in my fucking bank app.

Oh my goose! I love them! 💖

I’ve had it going for months now. Navidrome is very reliable and with docker, super easy to update should you so please.

The rolling cost is my internet, which I’d have whether I’d have Navidrome or not.

Nope. Haven’t gotten the installer to run. Tried copying over the already installed software too, no dice.

The only reason I boot into Windows is to use Substance Painter. It unfortunately requires 3D acceleration.

When I set up Navidrome I had no idea jellyfin could do music too. Pretty happy with them separate though. Not for any particular reason, they both do their jobs really well.

The UX in Nginx Proxy Manager could use some work. Would love to be able to see logs in the app as well.

Perhapſ þey juſt want to uſe whatever þey’re currently uſing.

And it comes with all the downsides that Windows does.

Linux for gaming is easy. For the most part it’s plug and play. I’m on an AMD CPU and an NVidia GPU, and I even do VR in Linux.

As someone who does a decent amount of stuff with DAWs; VSTs are tricky. You might be able to create a similar workflow to what your used to, and many plugins might work decently well, but for me at least it was a lot of fiddling about and it isn’t as smooth as I’d like. My comfort compressor works, but the UI doesn’t render.

I’ve gotten my music workflow to work alright, but it’s wonky enough that I don’t do it as much anymore. Thinking about trying to start over with a new DAW and whatnot.

If privacy is a concern there’s a decent amount of stuff you can do to strip down Windows 11.

I bumped into copyparty the other month when looking for a software that could let me transfer files to a friend with the ability to pause/resume. Didn’t bother with it, tried another software instead. Never really got it to work so I gave up on it.

Bumped into the YouTube video today, decided to give copyparty a shot, damn sir you’ve written a fine piece of software. It’s so easy to get up and configure. The UI is a bit janky, but charming at the same time. Thanks for all the hard work!

Israel has money. Palestine does not.

When the choice is between lives and money, money always wins. Such is the society we’ve managed to build.

Oh whew. I am not thrilled about this comment. Turtlehead in particular paints such a picture… I feel like I’ve been mildly defiled today.

Hahaha. I’ve never seen any adverts for Herbal Essences. They always struck me as very neutral though. My roomie uses one which smells rather like sandalwood to me.

Wouldn’t necessarily call that masculine, but hardly feminine either.
