- Comment on ‘My whole library is wiped out’: what it means to own movies and TV in the age of streaming services 6 months ago:
I never watch the same movie/TV show more than once, so I don’t see a point in hording this data. So for me the UX of streaming is most of the time preferrable than having a physical media which I need to carry to the new appartment every time I move.
This is different with music, where I listen to the same Albums hundrets of times. There I can deal with vinyl and many files on my computer.

But Netflix never let me buy a movie or TV show. They just sell me access to their library for a limited time.
I bought some music from Apple, DRM free and I downloaded it and have it on my own hard drive, and share it between all my devices.
Apple also sells you access to their library for a limited time like Netflix, but then you’re not buying the songs, you’re buying access to them for a limited time.

I’m just confused about why people are so mad about it. In other cases where you rent space to put physical things you own so you can still access them later this happens too. Let’s get into an example, and you guys tell me if I’m misunderstanding something:
If you have a car and have to change between summer and winter tires and you don’t have space at home to store the winter tires during the summer, you can go to a tire-hotel and they will 1. Sell you new tires, 2. switch your tires - a service you pay for - and 3. store the tires for you until next winter - a service you pay for too. Once the company goes out of business (or they focus on a different business) they tell you to get your tires or they will be discarded if you don’t. So you have to get them from them and you stop paying for the storage.
Isn’t it the same with the movies you buy and store at a place where you then rent storage to keep them there? As long as they allow you to download your purchases I see no difference. You can’t make someone else to keep working the same job until the heat death of the universe.

Ah, probably I mix it up with German where we write 70er where 70 = Siebzig + er = ies

The circlejerk about pineapple on pizza is just a meme, it’s funny to complain about it over and over again, while the hawai pizza has been going strong since at least the 70ies or something while hawai toast kind of disappeared.

- Comment on How do passkeys work across devices? 6 months ago:
I’ve used it on a iPhome once with a Syncthing alternative client and some alternative Keepass app. It worked very well but it was only for a month or two and I don’t change passwords often so I might not realized that syncing doesn’t work well.
- Comment on How do passkeys work across devices? 6 months ago:
I would suggest to move to KeepassXC, which already shown that even when KeepassX was too slow to implement features the community was healthy enough to fork it and make it the main fork.

- Comment on Is Radicale the way forward? 6 months ago:
Haha, interesting, for me it was the exact opposite, I started with Baikal but it was too weird and I couldn’t get it up and running quickly enough and then I think I was not able to share my calendar with my partner or something, so I switched to Radicale.
- Comment on Is Radicale the way forward? 6 months ago:
Yeah it’s a pitty. For Linux I started writing github.com/jeena/jnotes but it will still take a lot of time before it’s usable.
- Comment on Is Radicale the way forward? 6 months ago:
In the end it’s just another devise. But we are not changing the same document at the same time, that would lead to many sync conflicts I imagine. For that some special protocol for concurent Editing would be better.
- Comment on Is Radicale the way forward? 6 months ago:
Calendar, and addressbook actively. File sharing only seldom.
- Comment on Is Radicale the way forward? 6 months ago:
Yeah, I also selfhosted it for years myself. But I was adding more and more services to my server and it became clear that if I would want to keep Nextcloud I’d need a server with more CPU and RAM because when Nextcloud was running it would after half a day deadlock the server with a load of 120 so I had to hard reboot it twice a day.
After replacing it with radicale and syncthing I was able to run Mastodon and Lemmy on the same server additionally.
- Comment on Is Radicale the way forward? 6 months ago:
Syncthing and I have it partitioned with:
- Music
- Documents
- Family Documents
- Password DB
So that I can decide what to sync to which device.Music is for example too big to sync to my Phone so I don’t. Family documents I also share with my partner. Password DB I sync with all my devices but not to anyone else.

Amen 🙏.
- Comment on Is Radicale the way forward? 6 months ago:
I have Linux with GNOME and Android and my partner has iOS and Windows and all the CalDav and CardDav stuff works fine. Or at least adressbook and calendar. I couldn’t find a client for iOS for CalDav notes and tasks.
- Comment on Is Radicale the way forward? 6 months ago:
Oh I also agree about Syncthing. With it you practically don’t even need to run it on you server, I still do, just in case if all my other divices are offline.
- Comment on Is Radicale the way forward? 6 months ago:
I switched to Radicale and couldn’t be happier, so lightweight no pain setting it up or updating. Supports CardDav for the addressbook and CalDav for calendar, tasks, notes.
Nextcloud is for Enterprises, not sor selfhosting anymore.

Oh man. Ok, TIL that I’m not better than all the old people on Facebook believing what the scammers tell them.

I’m not sure what you mean. I’m using it for my family but I’m setting up the Email addresses, so I don’t think every family member can be admin, no.
- Comment on TikTok's CEO is feeling the pressure and users are freaking out 6 months ago:
If they had the best of the users in mind they would try to sell it. But if I was the CCP I would do everything so they couldn’t sell it. Then you’d have a martyr which you could always point to that the US is also blocking, so blocking can’t be so bad.
I don’t see what the CCP would get out of selling it.
- Comment on Why I ditched Gmail for Proton Mail 6 months ago:
I was looking at it too but went for mxroute.com because they offer a very minimalistic plan without up selling.
I also found some vaucher where I paid $45 for three years with 10GB mail, unlimited domains and email addresses.
- Comment on Nextcloud Hub 8 is now available 6 months ago:
- radicale.org/v3.html for calendar, address book, tasks, notes (use native clients for it on desktop and phone, for Notes on desktop I couldn’t find anything so I’m writing JNotes)
- tt-rss.org for RSS (have been using it for ever and wrote myself a Linux desktop client)
- Comment on Nextcloud Hub 8 is now available 6 months ago:
I used it mostly for calendar and adressbok synchronization between devices bit the performance was so bad O had to replace it.
