No, the best decision would be if they allowed us to disable shorts.

I agree with your first statement, but not the second one.
Us, selfhosters - sure.
Average person who value convenience over privacy/cost - no. They'll continue to pay and be in prisoned by the cloud.
Rolls off the tongue, doesn't it?
You're comparing apples and oranges, reverse proxy and VPN serve two different purposes.
The relaunched version aims to combine the nostalgia of the original Winamp with cutting-edge enhancements, such as integration with streaming platforms, cloud syncing
Noooo!
Also, I would consider some legitimate licenced software more of a malware than a cracked one. If your software forces always-online license, comes with annoying startup processes, nagging ad screens, etc, it's malware. And if there's a cracked version without those things, I'll take the cracked version any day.
HA is geared towards selfhosted, locally controlled stuff (zwave, ZigBee, mqqt, local WiFi, etc). Because the cloud and privacy invasion is the mainstream, HA may require a bit more tweaking and technical knowledge to get up and running.
With that said, once you get it to how you want it, it's been working rock solid for me for a few years now. I've built my house around HA automations and can't imagine living without it.
Correct, as long as the instance your account is in federated with all other instances you're subscribed to, you don't have to switch accounts.
Now, defederation is another issue if you want to see the widest possible amount of content. What's going to happen is ideologically opposed instances are going to defederate each other, so left-wing instances are going to defederate right-wing ones and vice versa. So if you're a user who wants to see the content from both sides, you'll have to create multiple accounts in each "cluster" of federated instances. It's kind of annoying to be honest, it makes it hard to discover communities just because your instance admin decided to defederate from them and encourages echo chambers, but it it's the best we've got.
So, I used Homebox for a few days now. I like the simplicity of it and I like the direction they're going. However, there are quite a few bugs and data loss issues, it's not ready for production yet. The thing is, these issues should be so easy to fix (it's a simple CRUD app) that it makes me doubt the dev skills and possibility of other issues I haven't discovered yet.
These two issues alone made me go back to my spreadsheet for now (good thing I kept a backup). I simply don't trust the app to keep my data intact.
You can follow the wallet address , but unles you know who the address belongs to, you can't follow it. So we ask again, where the proof that the coins went to site admins?
Yeah, it's great to know we'll die off!
Microsoft is shoving Teams down everyone's throats harder than, I don't know what. Teams is just awful, it's slow, clunky, and a piece of shit that nobody asked for.
Don't insult seawater, it definitely has more value than NFT
It's not self-hosted, I refuse to use anything that relies on any third party
Same thing with weight loss, just consume less calories than you spend.
Firgirl repacks are a godsend. Just being able to not download the languages you don't need is amazing, all games should allow that by default. Why should I download extra 50GB of content in languages I won't use?
It's never enough, soon they're going to show ads even to you, a paying customer. It's happening to some streaming providers already, it's coming to YouTube too, mark my words. Online streaming is turning into cable.
Umm, you're aware that anyone can stand up a Lemmy instance? Communists and fascists alike, you can just defederate from any instance you don't like.
I never buy any appliances with WiFi or any IoT shit, I draw a hard line there. That shit is cancer.
I'll quit YouTube before I watch ads.
I stay away from anything not selfhosted. Any third party, no matter how good and friendly it seems now, will eventually screw you once they get big.
Besides, even if it doesn't, I don't want them to have access to my data.
Don't you need to find 22 indexers to make that happen? Are these all public trackers because I don't think there are even that many left. Or are you using private trackers? I tried using Jacket but it's no good without having indexers, I thought it comes preinstalled with indexers
What is the definition of a "fake account"?
And can be identified/tracked individually by outside entities. In IPv4, a website sees both my device and my kid's device as the same IP. In IPv6 they're different so this just provides more ways for them to track you.
You did see the numbers? I mean, what else do you need?
Yes, you're punished for saving while those spend all they earned are rewarded. It's a messed up system.
Not cool, bro, it's against the pirate code to cheat at multiplayer video games.
I run PiHole on mine
Reolink or Amcrest or any other Ethernet hardwired ones with NVR that you can host in your house. No WiFi and no third-party/cloud storage ones like Ring or Nest.
No.
Just have backups of your data. If i get infected, I wipe and nuke from orbit anyway, I don't trust that antivirus will remove everything.
The number of short IPv6 addresses is smaller than the number of IPv4 addresses, so that's defeating the entire purpose of IPv6. Sooner or later you have to start using the long addresses.
One man's garbage is another man's treasure
How do you install search plugins in qBittorrent? When I follow their instructions, paste the plugin URL to add it, nothing happens. I'm using a headless qBittorrent web gui
I pay for mobile bandwidth, it shouldn't matter to the carrier how I use it.
It would be the same as your ISP charging you extra for going to YouTube website.
Yeah, it would be nice to have a capability to move all your user content to another instance.
No, you can see all the content from all instances you're subscribed to, as long your instance admin hasn't defederated from them.
Yeah, but you have to log in to the company's portal and click through their menus to get the PDFs. I wish eBill/eStatements would mean sending them over email, that would be easy to set up an automated way to grab them and file them.
Sending me an email notice that eBill is available is NOT useful at all, it's only a little more convenient than paper bills
It'll pay for itself many times over 15-20 years it's going to serve you.
The biggest problem with lemmy and decentralization right now is that for optimal performance you need to spread out the load relatively evenly between instances. The problem is that users tend to go where other users are (otherwise why go there) and that naturally leads to clumping on one or few instances which causes it to overload.
The way to solve it is to avoid having generic "anything goes" instances and instead have instances be focused on a specific topic. For example, have gaming instance, a personal finance/investing instance, all things home ownership and improvement instance, etc. You can have multiple communities per instance as long as they stay within the same general topic. This way users will naturally spread out by subscribing to different instances based on topics they're interested in. And that will solve the performance issue we're seeing with lemmy.world or other popular instances.
