I hoy Baikal.myself and sync to it via davx5 on android and via Thunderbird in ubuntu

They could choose a different business model to get revenue from their videos that doesn’t rely on google or the current model where personal privacy is the commodity. It could also be a difficult transition. Is it worth it to them? To you?
- Comment on Too many issues with Lychee. Any alternative ? 8 months ago:
I currently use Photo structure, which is good, but its not open source and the one guy behind it, Matthew, is quite slow with progress. He’s super friendly and helpful, and bug fixes are pretty quick. But feature additions are glacial.
I was considering switching to photoprism but was turned off by the attitude of some of the developers. The product looks prery good, though.
I’m pretty sure I’m going to switch to Immich, which is also really good.
A friend uses Piwigo which is decent and has good features, though I find it’s very ugly regardless which skin you use.
- Comment on Proxmox vs. TrueNAS Scale 8 months ago:
I currently only use proxmox for VMs. Proxmox hosts a TrueNAS VM, TrueNAS controls all but the main (small) drive on the box, proxmox then has access to the other drives through TrueNAS. Kind of neat.
But I think it would indeed be simpler to only have TrueNAS and use it for both nas and VMs. I have no experience with TrueNAS’ VMs.
- Comment on Proxmox vs. TrueNAS Scale 8 months ago:
I recently installed Proxmox and TrueNAS on the same box in kind of an ouroboros styles, following this guide: github.com/enigmacurry/d.rymcg.tech
So now I have both. I run VMs in proxmox and use truenas only for nas.
- Comment on What are the differences between conversation, intents, intent_script, and responses? 9 months ago:
I finally got around to trying this. It’s super easy and significantly improved response time. I will add that the last step is to configure the Voice Assistant you’re using in Home Assistant to use the new entity you just added as the “Speech to Text” engine.
Thanks, @RandomLegend@lemmy.dbzer0.com!
- Comment on Google Photos Alternative 10 months ago:
Photostructure is a strong starter, but development is slow and it’s still missing important features like sharing. Also, it’s not ooen source.
Immich seems great but doesn’t (yet) support digikam tags ( and since my 100,000 assets are tagged/organized via digikam, I don’t want to move to immich yet and have to start over).
PhotoPrism seemed pretty good, though it also doesn’t (yet) support digikam tags. Also, their self-hosted version doesn’t have all the features of their paid versions.

Thanks for all that info, @RandomLegend@lemmy.dbzer0.com!
Currently I’m running HA on a mini-pc with a celeron CPU with some Atom Echos around the house, and it takes 15-30 seconds for HA to respond to a voice command. I have a server with a GeForce 4060Ti (8GB) so I’m going to try to install whisper on it and direct HA to use that whisper service, hopefully reducing the response time to something reasonable. I don’t use Portainer but I think I’ll be able to figure out how to build the images and customize the
docker-compose.yaml, thanks to your info. - Comment on What are the differences between conversation, intents, intent_script, and responses? 11 months ago:
What’s involveditn running whisper on a computer other than the home assistant computer? I’m guessing its relatively easyyto install, hopefully in docker. How do you tell HA to use that whisper?
Also, its a bit surprising that moving the voice recognition to a GPU on a more powerful (presumably) computer doesn’t improve HA performance.

- Comment on Seeking assistance getting AntennaPod, Podfetch, and GPodder to work together. 11 months ago:
ABS works pretty well for me. Thanks!
The only way I see to sync play-state is if you use the ABS app or the web page. In ABS you can create an RSS feed for a podcast and you can subscribe to that feed in Antennapod, and the podcasts sync but their play-state doesn’t. So I’ll use the ABS on my phone instead of Antennapod. ABS is missing some nice features common in good podcast players, but it works well enough for me.

I checked out ABS a while ago, but i t didn’t fit my needs. I don’t remember why, now, though. I’ll check it out again. Thanks.
- Comment on Seeking assistance getting AntennaPod, Podfetch, and GPodder to work together. 11 months ago:
I should add that I’m not sold on AntennaPod, Podfetch, and GPodder. I think AntennaPod is a great app and I hope I can use it to do what I want here. Podfetch seems nice, with room to grow in terms of features and Ux. GPodder seems pretty terrible (though I hardly know it) but also seems to be the defacto standard in syncing podcasts and play-states (or perhaps the only game in town?).
But I’d ditch any or all of them if I was able to sync podcasts and play-states between devices. My only caveat is that the solution needs to be FOSS and self-host-able.

- Comment on Self Hosted Automatic Bookmark Backup and Synchronization 1 year ago:
FYI, I host my own xbs server. It’s pretty easy on its own, but I use the d.rymcg.tech framework.
- Comment on Self Hosted Automatic Bookmark Backup and Synchronization 1 year ago:
I’m curious why you’re not interested in xBrowsersync, if you’re willing to share. It does everything you’re looking for.
Have you looked at Shaarli?
- Comment on Landing page for selfhosted services 1 year ago:
That’s true. You must manually edit the up-to-6 config files to customize Homepage. It’s not difficult, but it’s not a GUI.
d.rymcg.tech is a docker-based self-hosting “platform”, and it includes Homepage and a way to configure it using your own custom homepage-config repo, but that might be a bit much to take on if you just want Homepage or if thisnkind of thing is outside of your skillset.
- Comment on Landing page for selfhosted services 1 year ago:
I love Homepage. It’s pretty, configurable, simple, and versatile.

Maybe btop+ or Prometheus.
