Really disappointing to see this coming from the EU, I expected better from them

I used Libation. It's free, it's open source and it worked great for me

Sonarr dark mode! Finally I won't be blinded when I open it to try and fix a series at 1am.

I hope Lemmy adds alt text like Mastadon and Pixelfed

There is a lot of debate on whether or not small instances help or make it worse, mostly due to how Lemmy handles pushing updates.

The main consensus is that joining a small to medium sized instance would have the smallest footprint on Lemmy.

That being said, Lemmy has a lot more developers working on it now it has all this attention and now they can see where Lemmy struggles on large instances, so what is true today may not be true in the future.

Check out Overseerr if you use Plex, or Jellyseerr if you use Jellyfin.

It will show you popular and upcoming movies/tv shows, and you can integrate with with the arr suite to have users able to request and download the shows.

It's fantastic, especially if you're sharing your media server with others

I would have gone with an Intel CPU to make use of iGPU for transcoding and probably larger hard drives.

I also would have written down my MariaDB admin password... Whoops

Yeah I shi- Oh shower sitters. Uh yeah I sit in the shower sometimes, when life is just hard.

Oh nice, I know the request has been made of Linuxserver as well but I haven't seen any official response to it

Logseq has a "whiteboard" feature which is the closest I've seen.

OneNote has been the only tool Ive failed to find a close alternative to, which is a shame because I hate the new simplified versions of OneNote.

I will say though, the linking available on Obsidian and Logseq is fantastic for d&d notes and worth ditching OneNote anyway (for me it was at least).

I wouldn't say barebones, but you're right in there is no direct alternative to OneNote I have ever found. It remains the product I haven't been able to directly replace.

A lot of the products people will suggest are very feature rich, just not all the same features as OneNote. For me, the ability to draw on the page freestyle with a stylus is what I love about OneNote. So easy to annotate notes. But linking and plugins are things others have which I love that OneNote lacks.

And the touch pad works as a trackpad, controlling the mouse. Super useful for launching games and such in desktop mode.

I think it is on android still? In which case I recommend megladon. It's a fork of the official app with more features, like following hashtags.

I thought all the third party apps were really ugly, so I was happy to find out about this

Crowdsec will analyse the logs from your reverse proxy and identify malicious actors, bots and whatever else you configure it to. It then tells a "bouncer" (part of your reverse proxy) to reject the request, block the IP or redirect them to a captcha.

The downside is that it's kinda a pain to get set up, at least in my experience. It also stopped working without informing me and I've never been able to get it working again since. If you don't use docker the experience might be a bit easier.

Nice, been using this service for a couple of years now and always thought the name was a little clunky.

This has been my slightly controversial take as well.

Brands and governments can create their Thread accounts (they were never going to join Mastadon), users can use Mastadon to access those if they want, while keeping away from Meta.

It could be what's needed to bring Mastadon into the main stream.

That seems really cool. Is it much use if you don't want to run the programs inside cosmos?

E.g. they're already running through unraid

I believe you can, but I just copied the calibre books and database from my PC and run it from calibre-web without maintaining any link to calibre.

It's not perfect but it works well enough.

In addition to checking the official apps player settings, I found Findroid can direct play a lot more files than the official app.

You need to use a VPN that supports port forwarding, such as PIA, and qbittorrent needs to get set to use that port.

I haven't used ProtonVPN, but for PIA the port never showed as open until traffic was going through it.

Once I put the port into qbittorrent and downloaded for a couple of minutes, the port then showed as open for port test tools.

Yes, "All" shows all the communities users are subscribed to on your instance (since communities don't federated with an instance until someone on that instance subscribes to it)

I never got the point of this sub on Reddit, outside of the joke "well guess I have to unsubscribe to never broke a bone", but maybe I'm missing something

I've been using Nunti (FOSS, Android only) for a few months now. I love it's adaptive learning feature which does a good job of filtering articles that I don't care about.

And where would one look for these sexy sexy AI models, so I can avoid them, of course...

Ive used it a few times, it works pretty well, the issues I faced were minor and easily fixed with a refresh.

Sadly doesn't work with the android TV app though.

What book would you suggest starting with?

You can access it after you like/dislike 50 articles

I've love one, been looking to join a private tracker ☺️

Don't forward the port in your router, it's not required and is just adding a vulnerable entry point into your network.

You can use a port checker tool to see if the port you are using is open (using the VPN IP). If it's just myanonamouse that's not recognising it, I recommend asking for help on there :)

Note this will only show you communities that someone on your instance is already subscribed to, not every community on Lemmy.

It might not be in your country, but as an FYI for others in this thread, it's not American only (works in Australia at least)

It will send the request to sonarr or radarr to download it, if you have those set up.

Surge is probably the easiest way to get a basic setup. If you just want to download a model and chat, I recommend it.

I haven't looked at peer tube yet but I highly recommend anyone who is curious about a federated Twitter check out Mastadon.

It feels like a much more polished experience than Lemmy and I think is a good example of what federated sites can become.

Also it wasn't in the question, but Pixelfed is basically a federated version of Instagram for those curious as well.

If you want to be able to get into the nitty gritty or play with options besides just a chat, I recommend Text Generation WebUI.

Installing is pretty easy, then you just download your desired model from Hugging Face.

Or if you want to use it for roleplay or adventure style games, KoboldCPP is easy to set up.

Plus you can install mods for them, which has made the Steam Deck my favourite handheld.

How is power wash simulator on the deck? Ive been thinking of picking it up
