- Comment on PhotoStructure vs. PhotoPrism 1 week ago:
Tried photoprism, then tried immich. Never went back.
Easier installation, easier management, more polished, just better overall

400 bad request?
- Comment on Home Assistant Connect ZBT-2 - A USB adapter that plugs into your Home Assistant system and opens up a world of smart device options 2 weeks ago:
I worked through three zogbee dongles from Amazon including the sonoff one.
Always had issues with my mesh. Upgrading to the one provided by Nabu guys (the v1) fixed them all and it’s been almost one year rock solid now. No more disconnection or better devices losing it

OpenList?
- Comment on Any Cloudflare clean, anonymous (Not require email to register) Lemmy instance open? 3 weeks ago:
This, run your own instance.
That’s the point I guess. You don’t like others rules? Set your instance and live by your rules.
- Comment on Is it normal to be able to shut your nose from within? 3 weeks ago:
Yes you can, but it’s not very strong. So when jumping into water, you might want to force close with fingers to prevent pressured water to get into the nose even if you keep it closed with your internal muscles.
I almost broke my timpanus due to a very high jump without using the fingers
- Comment on Why do Republicans hate the poor so much? 4 weeks ago:
Actually protestants in italy ate the most progressive form of Christianity we have. The Valesian church for example accept same sex marriage, has had female priests since forever and has a very strong position on church-state separation and non proselytizing.
You just don’t know much about protestants and think they are all the same like Trump or Bolsonaro.
- Comment on Backups of Backups 4 weeks ago:
I follow the good 9pd 3 2 2 rule. Three backups, in two locations, one is remote.
First copy on an external hard drive that gets mounted only for that, then unmounted.
Second copy still at home, on a disk connected to an OpenWRT access point in the patio.
Third copy on my VPS, so remote.
Each night restic take care of all that.
- Comment on My own copyparty instance 1 month ago:
I never tested copyparty… Thank you for the test… Nice! I am using OpenList at this time, but CC is also nice.
- Comment on Question about Immich 1 month ago:
Yes it’s docker… Immich is only deployed via docker.
Indeed its your docker mount points / volumes.
- Comment on How often do you update software on your servers? 1 month ago:
Gentooer here. Emerge sync &; world daily at night.
Weekly a manual check for stuff that doesn’t autoupdate for reasons.
Monthly / biweekly podman compose pull for containers. Manual, because i don’t trust that kind of autoupdate.
- Comment on what do you think about that large difference in egypt (inequality) 1 month ago:
The failure of globalization?
Where it was supposed to lift third world countries from poverty and instead created bigger wealth gaps?
Font know really. It’s like that in many places… India, Mexico, South Africa just a few that I have seen.
It’s mostly failure of the state.
- Comment on Is it possible to be a leftist, but still really enjoy capitalism? 1 month ago:
Very much yes!
Leftist doesn’t mean communist at all
- Comment on jotty·page - Checklists & Notes made it easy 1 month ago:
I don’t care for the pwa since I use Markor on android and syncrhing…
Yes the looks are ugly and it’s been a pain with SSO and auth in general…
Let me know!
I like how your project looks more.
- Comment on jotty·page - Checklists & Notes made it easy 1 month ago:
I currently use Silverbullet.MD, which is cool, but a bit too much for my needs.
Can you tell me the pros of using jotty instead?

Dogs can express and feel lots of emotions. But don’t humanize them.
- Comment on Photofield v0.20.0 released: dark mode, photo details, best scrollbar, better map, more search filters, etc. 1 month ago:
I love how smooth is photo field, and the way it makes browsing your photos so unique.
I think it’s a neat project!
- Comment on Photofield v0.20.0 released: dark mode, photo details, best scrollbar, better map, more search filters, etc. 1 month ago:
I remember trying it. A very neat idea beautifully implemented. But switched to IMMICH, more features, closer to what I needed.
Keep up the great job! Having alternatives is always a good thing.
I loved photofield!

Never used calls…
- Comment on What's the best chat to self host? 1 month ago:
I have gone down the matrix rabbit hole but i choose Continuwity, which is the successor to Conduwuit after the community drama.
It’s a rust server alternative to synapse, it’s lightweight and works very well.
Fuck synapse, it’s a colossal pain for small servers, not worth it. I also actively avoid anything related to the company behind it since I think they poison what matrix could be.
I wish I started with XMPP, but now I am selfhosted on matrix, so.
- Comment on For a while Microsoft was the King of PC stuff. How come they didn't just cozy up to the PC but had to do the XBOX and pretty much lose their ass with all the cash grabs? 1 month ago:
I have winter snow tires from them as well. Not studded, illegal here.

They only purchased the Nokia division that made phones. Nokia is still very well alive and doing great in tons of different markets, including lumber (*)
(*) at least was a few years ago last time I cared to check.
- Comment on Which would be better? 2 months ago:
The GMK seems more configurable and cheaper overall.
Beside this, there is no real difference as far as Linux support, I think.
- Comment on The age of adulthood should be 21 and the age of consent should be 25 across the world 2 months ago:
I would raise the age to get married to at least 40. That would solve lots of broken marriages issues.
- Comment on The age of adulthood should be 21 and the age of consent should be 25 across the world 2 months ago:
Exactly. I do agree.
That doesn’t male rape go away of course, but if I consent, well, if I can drink drive and vote, either I al a grown up or i al not, make your mind.
- Comment on The age of adulthood should be 21 and the age of consent should be 25 across the world 2 months ago:
Don’t agree at all.
Adulthood for what? Voting? Maybe. Drinking? No legal age at all, IMHO.
To have sex? No real minimum age, but a delta age between the two participants of no more than 2 years until 16yo, 3 until 20yo. After 20yo, whatever ring your bell.
Yes I am being extreme on purpose here.
- Comment on How realistic is it for me to learn Japanese so that I can experience Anime better? How long would it take to learn? Has anyone attempted this? 2 months ago:
I have friends who learned japanese quite easily. Granted, they where living in japan so that’s way easier being deep into easy practice and daily exposure.
But grammar is quite easy, as well as phonetics (that actually depends on your mother language, for us it is at least).
Of course don’t learn the traditional symbols, or don’t learn how to write it at all, since that would be useless to your goal. If that is even possible I don’t know.
Disclaimer: I didn’t study japanese

Not a big effort to promote your new community, eh?
- Comment on If you were a superhero and you knew a 21- to 23-year-old dating older people, what would you do? 2 months ago:
But why?
I would understand a 4yo dating a 30yo maybe, or a situation of abuse of power or violence, but a 22yo dating a 37yo while unusual, unless hides an abuse of power or violence, doesn’t need you to mess with.
Let the guys live that relationship out, it’s their life, not yours, they are both of age and presumely responsible for themselves.
