- Comment on Someone finally made a "Sonarr for YouTube" 1 week ago:
Sonarr is based on RSS feeds - explicitly designed for this purpose of getting new updates from subscription-like sources. This is much lighter in processing requirements. I’ve also tried to make this UI as similar as possible to the other *arr apps for familiarity.
Index an entire channel/playlist or get "older" videos. Subarr's RSS approach is specifically for "subscriptions": new video is posted, take some action Media management. Once Subarr kicks off the post-processor (like yt-dlp), its job is done. Use Plex/Jellyfin/etc or another one of the linked solutions above if you require more control over your media

- Comment on What is the current state of Matrix? 2 weeks ago:
Matrix works good. Two years ago Element should’ve been what element Next is today. But it is getting there. It still has great backers and lots of users. As long as there is no direct alternative, it’ll get there.
I don’t want american companies owning all my data and neither do companies want that.
It’s not the shiny new kid anymore but there is no other new shiny kid. Hence, it is still the brightest and newest kid.

Probably anything else. A pi is a good idea.
- Comment on Can I self-host on old iPhones? 5 weeks ago:
The phones are probably still working. New battery and touchscreen and someone will be happy with it.
To the normal user it is e waste because it’s an old apple phone. It doesn’t matter how much you get. Just get rid of it so that someone can use it or strip it apart for its parts.

- Comment on Will this Jellyfin configuration expose me to security risks? 1 month ago:
Install caddy. Check that it works. Get to know what a firewall is. How it works. Forward your ports from router to the machine. (I use cockpit (preinstalled on fedora) to configure my firewall)
sub.domain.com { reverse_proxy 192.168.178.192:8080 }
Replace 192.168.178.192 with the ip. And 8080 with the port and your domain obviously.
That’s it.
