I honestly don’t get the hostility, wtf.

If you prefer something other than Jellyfin, good for you.

Sorry, but the person above made a blanket statement that Jellyfin sucks for music streaming.

Alas, it does not; example: me, guffaw

Have zero problems with Jellyfin as the Server, Symfonium as the client on mobile / music assistant for streaming to sonos at home

Github, Lemmy, my blog.

Same

I just started working at a new place, and my closest coworker has my deadname. Threw me for like half a second, but hasn’t been an issue at all otherwise.

Yes, in supported apps / protocols. Koreader, for example, should have 2-way sync for eBooks, and Mihon has 2-way sync for Manga.

+1 for kavita. It also has a nice webreader ui.

Using a docker container provides you with the exact amount of extra protection as using a VM: zilch.

Only advantage is you can use other people’s config easily.

• signed, someone happily using their own VM-based setup

• LLMs are a complete dead end when it comes to actual intelligence, understanding, or sentience
• constant fearmongering from decades of media makes you afraid of sentient AI. I think it’s important to recognize that. I’m willing to bet that if people would have grown up with, say, Iain Banks’ Culture instead of Terminator, the idea of sentient AI would be exciting. (Not a value judgement, just pointing it out.)

Nice, that’s great to hear!

IDK man. AfD are the ones raging against “political correctness” here. Dude decided to not be politically correct and label the Nazis Nazis.

Ah, nice. In that case just beware to move /var/lib/private/conduwuit to /var/lib/private/continuwuity, not /var/lib/conduwuit to its counterpart

Ah crap, forgot to ping you! Sorry!!

Yep, easy decision now. Migration went smoothly, just had to move the state dir and chown it to continuwuity:continuwuity. Might be different on docker though, no idea, sorry 😄

Update: seems to me tuwunel is drama waiting to happen. See updated post for details.

Yes, completely agree. It seems that the matrix foundation could easily take a different path to allow the community to flourish and third-party servers to have a much easier time. Since I’m not federated, I wouldn’t even mind if whatever fork I’ll end up on eventually says “fuck this, we’re not following synapse specs any more”.

But yeah, I am sure selling premium accounts on matrix.org is what will save the matrix ecosystem… 🤦🏼‍♀️

Understandable.

Hm, fair enough, I actually have very little experience with XMPP. (Only through prosody, which I personally am on a war footing with.) From a cursory glance, I also couldn’t find an Android lient I’d really want to use, but of course that is subjective.

In any case: I have a matrix server up and running, and it has been a pain to get friends and family on there; I do not want to do all of that again with a new protocol/clients. As long as it’s sustainable, I want to stay with the same server installation, and that means choosing a conduwuit for me.

There’s nothing technically wrong with it, it’s just a glacial development speed. I tried contributing there myself when I wanted a specific feature (which had been requested years prior by someone else and was deemed a good idea), it took months before I even got a single comment back.

In the meantime, I had switched to conduwuit because it was a much, MUCH more active project. However, conduwuit has diverged substantially from conduit, including irreconcilable database changes, so it is not possible to migrate back, that would require starting from a fresh slate and loosing all user data.

Understandable. Funny thing is, I’m not even federated; I think that keeps me away from a lot of drama.

But yeah. The drama sucks, and so does the Matrix Foundation. So many dumb decisions, so many years old issues that could easily boost acceptance and usability, but… Nah. No better alternatives around though if you want to own your data, have proper multi-client support, and at least the option to federate.

Nice, how’s it been going?
