I remember experts saying 5 or 10 years ago that the increased standardization and centralization of the internet would lead to more frequent and widespread internet blackouts.
First AWS, and now this. It looks like they’re right.


What a pointless question. There’s literally nothing we could hope to learn from examining his specific DNA.
This is like how some scientist stole Einstein’s brain to see what made him so smart and didn’t find anything. Pointless.
The fact that this is being used as an argument against right to privacy is an ad absurdum strawman.


Why use a software that requires an involved workaround when there is software available that already does it?
Nothing against NextCloud, buy it’s not the only solution available, and people have different needs.


They have similar licences.
NextCloud server is AGPL 3.0
OpenCloud server is Apache 2.0


Not OP, but having files and folder structures accessible in the OS helps with a lot of tasks and interoperability.
If I want to add media files to Jellyfin, etc, I can’t just drop them into the video folder remotely because I have it mapped to a particular folder on the drive. If I want to make a copy of a large folder, I first have to mount the cloud as a “remote” drive, then do the operation from there.
It’s much easier to access files and folders outside of a database if they are needed for anything outside of the cloud service. I know that there may also be some security and efficiency factors that make a database favorable, but in terms of ease of use, it is just more effort to use a fileserver that operates through a database.


There are several apps and UIs that do this. Tesseract for one.


My wife had unbelievable pain in her feet, especially during pregnancy. We tried a lot of things before going to a foot doctor. It’s not necessarily the cheapest thing in the world, but they have a lot of neat toys that can analyze your individual foot and create custom insoles. It’s an easy investment in your health.


I like to own the stuff I buy.
I don’t want to pay a corporation a monthly fee to access my own data.
I don’t want a corporation or government to have unlimited access to my stuff.


Having come from zero knowledge, to now self-hosting for over a year, I can tell you that you just search for them one at a time. Sometimes they will make sense. Sometimes not yet.
Stick around here, ask questions, and look things up.


All these years we’ve been using skeletons for spooky decorations, when the muscular system was right there the whole time!


No, they already have Metapedia for that.


Great! Love this app!
Right now I’m using Jellyfin for my music server. If I ever switch back to subsonic / navidrome, then you’re my number one pick by a mile. Thank you for making this!


This. But…
The smart thermostat will come with a c wire. It’s an adapter that can plug into a normal outlet and then run to your thermostat. Depending on your level of DIY, you can hide the wire (or the entire adapter) inside the wall to make it prettier.


I just want my money back that I spent on a show that’s been “delayed” for a year and a half.


The voice recognition is honestly the best I’ve ever used. It’ll be a shame to give it up.
If I decide to switch keyboards, I’m certain I would go back to HeliBoard.
There’s been a real explosion of open source voice recognition over the past few months, and I haven’t tested a lot. Whisper+ looks like a promising one. Before using Futo, I used Sayboard, which I was pretty happy with.


Immich it licensed under AGPL 3 and the code is open - isn’t that FOSS?
I know some of their apps are licensed under a semi-open license of their own creation and that’s been touchy to say the least. But is it true to say that none of their apps are FOSS?

There are some tweaks you can usually do on the server/host side as well. That’s particularly helpful if you use Thunderbird on multiple devices, such as desktop and phone.
Hopefully it will be even easier over time to sync settings between devices — I’d love to see filters and signatures across devices one day.
