Thank you for the more detailed response. Like I said, I’m no pro at any of this. I just want to learn when I can.

And for the record, I don’t know who downvoted your comments, but it was not me!

That still doesn’t help me understand why you would clone the entire repo just to install the docker image. You create the compose file (and the variables file if that’s how you roll) and docker handles the rest. For someone who is already admitting their unfamiliarity with things, the whole idea of getting comfortable with git just seems unnecessary and unhelpful in this context.

It’s fine, you don’t need to reply again. Just different outlooks, I guess.

No, I get that the repo isn’t, but all you need to spin up the container is the compose file, right? I’m just trying to understand, not argue. I’m not completely comfortable with git, and just about “good enough” with Docker. So if I’m missing something, I’d like to learn.

Just curious, but why bother cloning the repo just to copy out the text of one file? For compose files I usually just copy & paste, then edit what I need.

If you aren’t a big consumer of shows and movies, just use the free services if they fill the need for you. Personally, I’ve purchased hundreds of movies and TV shows on disc and digitally over the years. Jellyfin lets me put them all in one place for my whole family to access. No need to try to remember what service it’s on or where the disc is.

Ha. Heard. I mostly don’t want to carry another device when I travel for work, so will use my phone to read.

I moved all my books out of Amazon last year and host them for my family with Calibre Web. Jailbroke my Kindle and use KOreader exclusively, so I use Sync so that if I need to read while I’m out, I can just pick up on my phone.

What’s the flow there? Receive link, copy, open MeTube, paste, download watch?

Tiktok and Instagram links are so frustrating when friends send them.

KOreader Sync if you use KOreader. Easily pick up where you leave off on other devices!

I also run Wiki.js to (inconsistently) document what I’m doing with my apps and server.
