This is what I did after running consumer Linksys and ASUS routers, including with OpenWRT.

I moved to a Unifi setup and haven’t had any issues. I can manage it remotely if I need to, like another household member needs something changed or fixed. I’ve never had to restart it to fix an issue, it just works.

Easy upgrades without having to replace the entire setup and move settings over manually. Especially easy wireless upgrades, almost just plug and play replacing the old access point antenna.

And if you need just a small setup and you run a home server you can run the management software on there instead of something like their dedicated Cloud Key device.

Truth Social is already literally a Mastodon instance. They just don’t federate with anything else.

Trump could open up federation, but that would ruin their safe space, I mean echo chamber.

For Octopus… Octopi is just plain incorrect, it assumes an incorrect loanword origin, even if it is the most common pluralization used.

Octopus does not come from Latin which would result in octopi. It comes from Greek, so the correct plural should be octopodes.

The English standard pluralization would still be Octopuses though, and most comprehensible all around without having to explain the whole thing to a new person. In the end it’s all about being understood over anything else.

Same here. When my Internet is out, my household needs to still be able to watch shows from my NAS locally without having to jump through hoops. Plex wouldn’t let me just do that anymore.

Moving to Emby has had its own small issues, but with the internet out the family can still just load the TV app and watch a show like normal. They don’t need to know how to do any troubleshooting, alternate login options, etc.

It was neither of those surprisingly, it was !adorableporn.

The purging is in reference to removing the local copies on *their *instance. Federation creates a local copy of content visited by users as a cache that is directly interated with, and then any local comments, etc. are sent out after that.

This is why posts and comments will stick around and can be interacted with still after instances defederate. Updates after defederation simply don’t make it back to the original instance because that connection no longer exists, but the local cahced copy does.

You can turn of NSFW content in your account settings if you find it objectionable. This is on both lemmy and kbin.

And some of the most vocal hypocrites. An entire major political party is essentially based on it and continuously tries to push puritanical beliefs on everyone.
