When I had reddit (deleted a few years ago), I posted a screenshot of my android launcher, and someone pointed out that I was using google apps, and said "protect your privacy", he gave me some resources and that's where it all clicked for me. What a nice guy.

I read the full blog post from the linked blog of a sysadmin there, and it was worth the read, what a ride.

Can someone list the youtube alternatives and maybe even link them if youre feeling super generous? in c/piracy

It's a piped frontend, so only piped accounts. (Piped is a frontend for YouTube)

Beginner's Guides for Switching to Linux? in c/[email protected]

[–] SmallAlmond 28 points 2 years ago (11 children)

Linux mint is in my opinion the best distro for a new user, but you may personally not be fond of the UI.

I don't know how to write a guide for you, but if you have more specific questions feel free to ask them, best of luck!

How to fully selfhost stremio? (github.com)

Hi! I need some help please, I can't seem to be able to figure this out myself.

Stremio: The Next Generation Media Center

They have a docker container with the backend, and they also have the web frontend Dockerfile.

I am running already the backend with docker, but if you go to the ip:port it will redirect to Stremio's own hosted frontend, that then uses your backend.

But I instead want to host both the frontend and backend, has someone already done this before? I couldn't find much and the Dockerfile is not of much help.

Thank you!

Let's get each other up to speed on VM XML's (self.vfio)

So, I got into vfio a few years back when I switched to Linux, just when proton was starting to become a bit more relevant because of the upcoming Valve gaming handheld.

Nowadays many people have ditched their windows virtual machines to play games, because many games we want to play already work. But.. Sadly there's still some titles that are very strict on anti-cheat.

Then comes the reasoning of this post. It has been long since I've last looked into vfio tweaks because I left reddit shortly after getting interested on vfio.

TLDR: Please share the xml tweaks that you have applied to your gaming vm's to improve anti cheat compatibility, I will be thankful and hopefully we will improve each others setups.
