- Comment on moving from nextcloud to opencloud 1 week ago:
Why use a software that requires an involved workaround when there is software available that already does it?
Nothing against NextCloud, buy it’s not the only solution available, and people have different needs.
- Comment on moving from nextcloud to opencloud 1 week ago:
Not OP, but having files and folder structures accessible in the OS helps with a lot of tasks and interoperability.
If I want to add media files to Jellyfin, etc, I can’t just drop them into the video folder remotely because I have it mapped to a particular folder on the drive. If I want to make a copy of a large folder, I first have to mount the cloud as a “remote” drive, then do the operation from there.
It’s much easier to access files and folders outside of a database if they are needed for anything outside of the cloud service. I know that there may also be some security and efficiency factors that make a database favorable, but in terms of ease of use, it is just more effort to use a fileserver that operates through a database.

There are several apps and UIs that do this. Tesseract for one.

It’s just because they used novel punctuation — some people still type like this.

- Comment on What is a good self-hosted solution for sharing files with friends? 1 week ago:
Having come from zero knowledge, to now self-hosting for over a year, I can tell you that you just search for them one at a time. Sometimes they will make sense. Sometimes not yet.
Stick around here, ask questions, and look things up.

Great! Love this app!
Right now I’m using Jellyfin for my music server. If I ever switch back to subsonic / navidrome, then you’re my number one pick by a mile. Thank you for making this!

The voice recognition is honestly the best I’ve ever used. It’ll be a shame to give it up.
If I decide to switch keyboards, I’m certain I would go back to HeliBoard.
There’s been a real explosion of open source voice recognition over the past few months, and I haven’t tested a lot. Whisper+ looks like a promising one. Before using Futo, I used Sayboard, which I was pretty happy with.
- Comment on Futo updates their website, removing logos, clarifying micro grants 2 weeks ago:
Immich it licensed under AGPL 3 and the code is open - isn’t that FOSS?
I know some of their apps are licensed under a semi-open license of their own creation and that’s been touchy to say the least. But is it true to say that none of their apps are FOSS?

Uh, I made a comment before and after I watched it that already addressed this long before you replied. I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt that you are experiencing some kind of federation issue that prevented you from seeing the edit - Maybe reach out to your server admin about this issue?

You actually proved the exact opposite.
That dry, dusty ground proves that water can’t always find the level.
Find the level. Yeah, I’ll show myself out.
- Comment on Can you drive west to lengthen the sunset? 3 weeks ago:
They don’t usually do questions with such obvious answers. I didn’t watch it, but I’m guessing it’s something to be effect of “Yes. And you can stop the sun from setting completely if you travel at a few hundred mph, depending on your latitude.”
Just one question. Did he end up finding a paved road far enough north that you can do it in an ordinary car at legal speeds? I’m guessing somewhere in Russia or Canada?

- Comment on The bourgeoisie could technically unintentionally end capitalism... 3 weeks ago:
You’ve just described the post-scarcity economy.
I think of the two possible trajectories as the Star Wars universe and the Star Trek universe. Both have fully automated supply chains through droids/replicator technology. However, in Star Wars, only the elite few have access to that technology. Hence, the economy is still centered around trade and, well, as the title would suggest — wars. In Star Trek, that technology is democratized and made available to everyone to create a world in which money has no meaning, and everyone has access to technology and meeting their basic needs.
It all depends on what kind of society we decide to build from here on out.

I’m not scrolling through the thread to police people. I’m just responding to you as one person to another. I’m certainly not trying to shut you up.
I didn’t call you or anyone else in this thread a tankie, because I actually agree with the premise that Lemmy could benefit from a more collaborative culture. I’m not identifying and harping on which political issues we disagree on here, because there are plenty of other threads on Lemmy for that.
I’m just letting you know that I honestly believe that you and I are on the same side. We agree on 90% of the most important issues in the world right now. I don’t think there is any daylight between us when it comes to Trump or unions or healthcare or LGBTQ+ or protecting online speech or most other things. I don’t consider you an enemy at all, and I hope you think the same about me. We can and should (and have) discuss when we disagree on threads related to topics where we differ.
Neglecting the majority of topics where we support one another does not benefit us, Lemmy, or the world.

No one here brought up the Democratic Party or genocide except you.
This is a post about division on Lemmy.
You actually don’t have to demonstrate that. You can choose to find common ground in the culture of the platform and save the division for matters that are important to you in the communities that discuss them. That’s up to you, friend.
