  • A lot of that pain can be reduced by writing and running your code locally before pushing it to a CI environment. Generally with our automation we write a CLI, And GitHub actions is just an execution environment that calls the CLI.

    And if what you’re trying to do must execute inside an action. You can run workflows locally with docker!



  • We’re not pretending, this is an asinine view.

    Two things can be true at once. It’s surprising how difficult a concept this is to grasp.

    Social media accelerated this, it provides the vehicle in which to make culture wars the only thing at the front of people’s minds. It accelerated division and hate, as these improve platform attention.

    Let’s not even talk about the death of critical thinking which just allows this to happen to greater effect.

    Rising wealth inequality because a side effect of us not fighting a class war which is a side effect of us being completely focused on culture wars which is a side effect of social media.

    There’s an entire chain here and social media underpins most of it’s acceleration


  • I disagree.

    I don’t necessarily know about new music, artists, or genres. I want to get a mixture of stuff I haven’t encountered.

    Something like 60% of the music I listen to in a given month I had never heard of 12 months prior. I’ve found so much music that I vibe with by way of generated playlists.

    Discovering something new that scratches my music itch is in itself a pleasure for me, and I can go back to it at a later date, like everything else.

    This doesn’t mean I support Spotify, but it does mean I disagree with your stance.





  • Development time and user support?

    These are two pretty obvious reasons. It takes time and time is a limited resource. Therefore, time should be spent on solving impactful problems. Lemmy account login is extremely low impact, it’s not a bad thing, it’s just not something that improves immich for a large portion of its user base.

    Another thing is user support. Since the many instances are self-hosted for the most part, and they will go offline, and they will go away forever in some instances. Users asking for support for this login type and asking for additional features to make up for this baked in instability.

    Essentially. Low impact work that may drive a higher volume of support efforts.

    It’s the same reason some niche projects stop supporting Linux. Low user volume and disproportionately high “neediness” of those users.
