- Comment on Is there anyone that would be interest in doing a video call with me to show me how all this cloudflare/nginx/authentication works? I can pay 3 days ago:
When I was starting out with selfhosting and stuff, I had tons of issues with networking, reverse proxies, etc. And much of the advice here was not… particularly helpful. I genuinely don’t think most people here understand how much they know, and how much comes across as gibberish when they speak to a true newbie. I still see it in this forum all the time for new people. Just the other day someone described themselves as a total newbie, nothing more than Jellyfin running on a Mac locally, and a comment I saw suggested their next step should be running proxmox and setting up VMs and this that and the other service. Like… that’s not a good next step.

My partner and I quite like Mealie. It doesn’t import 100% perfectly like you say, but it does probably 90% of the work.

You can share Immich libraries

Quick tech specs
With 122.88 TB capacity, you have ample space to store a vast number of images, extensive hours of video, or a large collection of songs
Understatement much?
- Comment on [META] Are paid for closer source advertising appropriate? 3 weeks ago:
There is no rule about advertising in the sidebar. I’m personally fine with it. If it weren’t advertised here, I might never hear about projects to be honest. Almost everything I’m hosting right now came about because I heard about it on a forum.
- Comment on Laptop as server, how to best manage battery? 4 weeks ago:
There’s no supposing necessary. It was a fire hazard, and presently not eventually. When something has caused a fire, it’s no longer a hazard, it’s just, you know, a fire.
- Comment on Why I moved my Plex library to Jellyfin after 14 years 5 weeks ago:
Why let perfect be the enemy of good?
“tailscale might enshittify in the future” is honestly a poor argument against “plex is enshittified right now”

Then call it Matrix. They don’t need to know and probably don’t care about the specific server software you’re using.
- Comment on [Meta] Removing definitions from Decronym? 5 weeks ago:
I like the bot as is and wouldn’t change it or remove any.
I think a lot of people here take for granted how much they know.

I use Donetick.
- Comment on Strava just killed its free API, will require a subscription if you want to build on top of it 5 weeks ago:
Public companies are almost more likely to do this, no? They have shareholders to appease instead of just private interests.
- Comment on Started Max Payne 3 whoa 5 weeks ago:
Max Payne 3 gets a lot of hate from fans of the original, but it’s genuinely close to a 10/10 for me. It was so goddamn fun, and the level design and setting was top notch. Loved the story too.
