I’ve never done it myself but this may be what you’re looking for.

Please! That would be very helpful. I tried but got tired of banging my head against a wall. I’d like to see how you approached it.

Depends on if I want to listen to music or just have a radio on.

If I’m listening to music, I’m using Jellyfin. But I also have a large music collection.

If I just want a radio, it’s either Spotify or Amazon Music depending on where I am.

It’s doable. I personally run my Jellyfin instance publicly available and there’s maybe 3 people who use it regularly. With my internet connection, WAN side users are limited to about 720p but I’ve had the 3 of us all playing different media at the same time on occasion. The main limiting factors on the number of simultaneously active users is how much upload bandwidth you have and how quickly you can transcode video files. Any 10 year old box will be able to handle 1 or 2 users at a time provided it doesn’t need to do a bunch of transcoding. If your building a box, would use a 11th or 12 gen Intel or if you must go AMD, have a graphics card to handle the transcoding. The “build a box” route can probably handle 4 or 5 simultaneous users, possibly more depending on your hardware choices. The main limiting factor in that case would be your upload.

You’re panicking. If you want to help, stop.

Life’s a bitch and then we die. We haven’t done more than get a glimpse of the bad part yet.

This shit started when everyone started looking to the federal government to solve all their problems. Started caring only about who was President but not paying attention to who was running the schools or local governments. Looking for the easy path instead of the right or best path.

As long as we still have elections, there is still a chance to turn this country around with minimal bloodshed. But it takes actually paying attention to whom your voting for and not just voting for the letter by their name. And then holding them accountable when they fall short.

I could go on and on about all of the ways that this can still be turned around, but I’ve got work in seven hours so it’s bedtime.

Probably not, but I doubt you, a random stranger on the internet, could cause more trouble than the current lot.

So take the downvote and we’ll give it a go. 😂

I’ve always used NameCheap. Can’t speak to their ethics, but customer support has been excellent the few times I’ve needed it.

Before I grew enough spare capacity at home to self host our family’s server, I was using MCPro hosting. It was fine and at the time, cheap. I understand they’ve been bought by Apex now though. No experience with them.

Not OP but if I had to guess, probably Turnkey File Server.

When I was first playing with NC I was using a RPi3 with an external SSD for a drive. Performance was pretty good, but as soon as I tried the same setup in a VM, the performance tanked. The only way I found to avoid the performance penalty was a manual install like it was bare metal, which I didn’t really want to do. My experience with such setups is that they tend to be brittle.

My understanding was that the performance penalty was caused by the chain of VMs. Proxmox --> Ubuntu VM --> Docker. I don’t know enough about it to say for sure.

My NextCloud is running on an old desktop that’s been repurposed into a server. The server is running Proxmox, and NC is running in docker directly on Proxmox using the nextcloud-aio image.

Found that had better performance than running it in a VM and was less headaches than the other install options.

I keep thinking about moving it to dedicated hardware, say some sort of mini pc, but it hasn’t been a high priority for me.

Possibly. On Reddit, it’s possible to take over a dead subreddit. I’m not sure how that would work here. Especially if the original server has died.

For S&Gs I did a search on Reddit asking basically the same question. Didn’t find an answer but I did turn up this post from 12 years ago tracing the history of Reddit. Thought it was interesting.

I started running into the same problem about 2 years ago. Found a company called Send in Blue ( which has since been bought and is now called Brevo). They’re a commercial mail sender but have a free tier. How long that will continue to be available, I don’t know, but for now it solves my email sending issues.

I know Voyager does, at least on iOS. I would suspect most of them do.

For Windows, Exact Audio Copy has been the standard for some time. In Linux, what I run, I tend to use Ruby Ripper which should be available in most repositories.

Either path ends with me adjusting the tags using Picard. Which reminds me, it’s been a few years, I need to check and see if there are any new rippers available for Linux.

Just don’t wear it on your sleeve and most folks, (the idiots that care, especially), are unlikely to notice. They look for stereotypes, not facts. Your sexuality isn’t the whole of you, it’s just part of who you are. No need to flaunt it, most of the time. If you have a hobby, interest, or career that stereotypically matches the sex you present as, it’s all the more likely no one will notice, and those few that do, probably won’t care.

Any of the US news communities would be a good place to start. https://lemmy.world/c/keeptrack is tracking the 2nd Trump administration specifically.

Might try Trakt. It does a pretty good job of finding things I want to watch.

Thank you!

Thank you! That got me there!
