Fair enough, it is annoying having to go to each individual discord to find answers.

Their argument (from my recollection) mostly revolved around their lack of control, they were upset that they could no longer delete all their content off nexusmods.
The sad reality is the reason it was brought forward was due to how frequently mod authors would throw hissy fits and delete their mods.
Wabbajack (precursor to collections and I’d wager still superior for Beth games) mod lists frequently ran into this issue. In many cases it equated to many many hours of work to fix, assuming it wasn’t an essential mod.

Thunderstore is actually excellent for its ease of use, making a mod list to share with a friend is as easy as export profile code.
Where it absolutely fails is any kind of conflict resolution, vortex has it but mod organizer imo is way easier to use (and consistently works) in that regard.
Not to argue on the drama, it was stupid and I fully side with nexus on their reasoning.

I have on the same windows install gone from 7 to 10 to 11 without much issue. There were several win 10 updates that fucked with my setup more then the upgrade process.

It’s still a thing unfortunately, one could argue they’re attempting to make modding profitable for modders, but of course they get a cut too.

Yeah, it’s one thing to make it known that it is a possible explanation, it’s another to claim that it is a fact without evidence.
- Comment on Selfhosted podcast has announced that episode 150 is their last. 5 days ago:
That’s a great point, yes, the majority of my podcast listening was on my longer drive before covid when I was wfh for a while but also moved closer to my eventual office.
- Comment on Selfhosted podcast has announced that episode 150 is their last. 6 days ago:
I’m general I heard the podcast ecosystem is in a dire state, post covid numbers dropped a lot seemingly.
It’s funny because I used to listen to podcasts way more frequently before covid, but I’ve sorta transitioned to long form videos instead of straight podcasts.
- Comment on What programs do you wish a good FOSS alternative existed, but doesn't or most of the FOSS alternatives simply aren't good? 6 days ago:
I’m sorry but I’m really tired of web apps disguised as native applications.
To your point though, I haven’t tried it again in several months, just ran into several issues and swapped back for as long as I can lol

Microsoft actively trying to kill desktop outlook and replace it with a glorified web app with half the features at best.

Fair point I should try to be better about that. Just irritated that they made such a thoughtful gift so unnecessarily negative simply because you used a tool to help you that they don’t like.

You’re out of your mind.

This is why I set up a redlib instance on my homelab.
- Comment on Fixing an expired SSL certificate remotely 1 week ago:
Right, I guess I meant if it necessarily requires internet access to notify, how does it send the notification when it can not reach the internet.
I have uptime Kuma and use ntfy to alert myself for various things, but if I can’t access my server for any reason, the likelihood I’d be alerted first is very low.
- Comment on Fixing an expired SSL certificate remotely 1 week ago:
How do you get alerted from uptime Kuma if you can’t access the site though?

- Comment on Would you use a self-hosted, AI-powered search engine for your favorite sites? 1 week ago:
The gpu is already running because it’s in the device, by this logic I shouldn’t have a GPU in my homelab until I want to use it for something, rip jellyfin and immich I guess.
I get the impression you don’t really understand how local LLMs, you likely wouldn’t need a very large model to run basic scraping, just would depend on what OP has in mind really or what kind of schedule it runs on. You should consider the difference between a mega corps server farm compared to some rando using this locally on consumer hardware. (which seems to be the intent from OP)
- Comment on Would you use a self-hosted, AI-powered search engine for your favorite sites? 1 week ago:
Does it? I haven’t seen that in my instance settings, will have to take another gander.
- Comment on Would you use a self-hosted, AI-powered search engine for your favorite sites? 1 week ago:
You realize the gpu site idle when not actively being used right?
It’d be cheaper if you host it locally, essentially just your normal electricity bill which is the entire point of what op is saying lol.
- Comment on Would you use a self-hosted, AI-powered search engine for your favorite sites? 1 week ago:
Seems nifty, bake in stuff like selecting your AI provider (support local llama, local openAI api, and if you have to use a third party I guess lol) make sure it’s dockerized (or is relatively easy to do, bonus points for including a compose)
- Comment on How do I host Jellyfin in the most secure manner possible? 1 week ago:
WG Ez worked fine for me? Basically just VPNs me right into my LAN.
- Comment on How do I securely host Jellyfin? (Part 2) 1 week ago:
Correct, trackers will work but DHT or whatever it’s called won’t, end up with a lot of dead torrents trying to run it through mull, but I paid a bit in advance so I can’t swap yet.
Nzbs work most of the time anyway

Why not just skip that and just use a wire guard tunnel?
