Great share! Will be reading this momentarily, thank you.

By average I mean, lots of folks have niche needs, while mine currently are generic, so I’m wondering what’s not necessarily the best but most common.

My plex/Emby server is currently on a qnap ts563 and does not handle transcoding well. Looking to improve that with the n100 and move away from emby to try jellyfin. I keep plex because it works and I share servers with friends, but I’m curious about jellyfin.

My daily driver is not going to be part of the new setup. It’s and older frankenbuilt pc with manjaro. If anyone has interesting ideas for the nas besides holding my media please do.

I think a docker system would be best but any suggestions that encompass all this would be great. If I’m being vague it’s because I’ve always just copy pasted and read guides. I’m not as knowledgeable as I’d like to be yet.

Tried it just now on iPad. Tried adding one item and after 10 min couldn’t get past an “invalid value” prompt when saving ingredients. Needs clearer prompts on WHAT was invalid.

What is something that only exists because people are stupid? in c/[email protected]
[–] Siathes 41 points 9 months ago

Please stop with justifying things that are terrible for people and the world. If these items are needed for people with disabilities, you don’t take a natural container, remove it and cover it in plastic. The solution would be to create something that is created once and does the job required indefinitely.

You are supposed to be born in the US to relate (or enjoy) to Lemmy content. in c/[email protected]
[–] Siathes 7 points 9 months ago

Yes please, more of this. I would really like to hear something other than what is going on in the US (and Canada). Good or bad, my only issue is I wish lemmy had some kind of translator. North American sad and mad with the world!

Has anyone tried floorp? I’ve been using it and it seems good with side tabs. Any others with opinion (good or bad) about it?

Half of Gen Z voters admit to lying about their votes: Survey in c/[email protected]
[–] Siathes 5 points 10 months ago

Hell yes they need to lie! They probably say they voted for who ever the loudest person in the group did so they don’t get threatened. Us older generations shouldn’t be bullying the younger ones, we had our chance and here we are.

How would a credibility system work… in c/[email protected]
[–] Siathes 1 points 10 months ago

Thank you all for the discussion! I have read all the comments and enjoyed each response and will continue to do so. I came out with pretty much the same feelings as the rest of you…. In an ideal world…

Once again, thank you and good luck to everyone out there…we got this!

I miss the Sears Wishbook. This will have to do... in c/[email protected]

I remember the days of reading through those catalogs with anticipation and hope. Personally I think back fondly on the ultimate catalog, consumers distributing. Fill out the catalog card after weeks of pouring over toys and give it to the parents, instant Christmas list

If you have an idea you think would make this adventure better, feel free to suggest something. I’m keeping it deliberately vague to allow maximum creativity so keep suggestions in that theme.

Thanks for participating!

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.ml/post/1560729

I just created awesome-lemmy based on the well-known awesome lists.

There is already a awesome-lemmy-instances which is specialized in Lemmy instances but no general list that's why I created one.

It's forked from awesome-scala which has a very neat python script to easily add new projects so it should be quite easy to contribute, feel free to add tools, apps and websites linked to lemmy!

I know people are confused about how fediverse works and how to use it. This is an attempt to compile a list of beginner's guides made by some amazing people on this topic.

I will update this list if any new guide is made so you can save this post for later. Also, if anyone has any good guide to add post it in the comments and I'll add it here.

Grand Idea for Retro-Community (self.bbses)

Flow

I'd like to make this flow a public document, as a visual aid to crowdsource putting pieces together for a community server.

the big pictures is a few projects, public and private and will hopefully allow others to follow and create their own as we go. I'd like to collaborate on what would be a solid system that a single or small group could put together and duplicate. Every aspect should be discussed, debated, and voted on. Best practices adapted and short comings pointed out. I'd like it to be open source and integrate together in some fashion. We can break into fine details over time. This is a long term hobby project, not an all in one weekend project.

I think the first items to discuss are

  1. Any Interest?
  2. How to host this Flow - currently on Github
  3. How to post the progress in segments so not a mega thread
  4. Which flow software would work the best and give all people on all devices the ability to view/edit - currently on diagrams.net

Items down the road

  • other Fediverse items to incorporate
  • Hardware to run it all
  • How to manage access so the community can all participate

Posting a link to this in https://lemmy.world/c/selfhosted as its probably in their wheel house as well

Format and post handling (self.faqs)
submitted 2 years ago by Siathes to c/faqs
2 comments fedilink
 

Looking for any input on title formatting for posting a FAQ and other ways to fill out the repository. Should we only have the mods of the communities able to poste their own FAQs or should we be able to post them ourselves. How do we stop duplicates etc. Brainstorm away, there are no stupid questions/ideas
