- Comment on The Enshitification of Youtube’s Full Album Playlists 9 hours ago:
This isn’t happening in YouTube Music, the paid music platform. Instead, it is users putting together playlists of normal YouTube videos and presenting them as an album playlist while maliciously inserting a monetized, spammy video into it. As far as I know, YouTube Music wouldn’t really be vulnerable to the same kind of abuse.

I am a big fan of content-specific instances. Some instances off the top of my head that fit this description:
- bookwormstory.social - Instance about the Ascendance of a Bookworm series
- ani.social - Instance about anime/manga/Japanese media
- slrpnk.net - Instance focused on the climate crisis and related issues
- programming.dev - Instance focused on software development
- startrek.website - Instance about Star Trek
- literature.cafe - Instance about books and writing
…and I am sure there are many others. I just think that having a focus like that provides a more interesting local instance environment than a large, generalist instance.

Is there a way to customize the order of libraries?
Nope.
subtitle playback
This is still a little weird. I found that the web client (in a browser) handles this really well with default settings. However, if I try to use the desktop app or a mobile client, I have to force it to burn in the subtitles for them to show up reliably. Fortunately, there are per-client settings for this now:
- Comment on Do you selfhost your own blog/website? 7 months ago:
I have hosted a wordpress site on my unraid box before, but ended up moving it to a VPS instead. I ended up moving it primarily because a VPS is just going to have more uptime since I end up tinkering around with my homelab too often. So, any service that I expect other people to use, I often end up moving it to a VPS (mostly wikis for different things). The one exception to that is anything related to media delivery (plex, jellyfin, *arr stack), because I don’t want to make that as publicly accessible and it needs close integration with the storage array in unraid.
