Fruit? Really?

Harsh, and not what people wanna hear. But correct.

Last time someone mentioned these on Lemmy I got one.

It “crashed” according to Synology in about a week. Woke me up in the middle of the night with the Synology beeping.

For point one: Not everyone is into boosting or retweeting. Some actually find it a bit obnoxious.

Some people I might enjoy finding to follow, friends, community members, etc, might not be ones to post anything boost worthy.

For the other points, I assume these are just artifacts of Mastodon’s federated nature? Not sure exactly.

These sorts of platforms are not designed like a Facebook profile.

If other federated services gain dominance, they will go the same route. And due to the same pressures. (Spam, bad actors, misbehaving servers, etc)

We already see defederation drama.

It’s the best PWA ever made, to my knowledge.

Voyager is premo.

I have gigabit, and struggled to stream. Turned out I had the Quality of Service (QoS) /traffic priority settings on my router misconfigured.

This might be something to look into.

Can a remote user download something from your network at a reasonable and consistent speed? (Not using Plex)

Can you upload a large file somewhere and monitor the speed and see if it maintains speed as expected?

For me, these two things were also performing at unexpectedly low speeds, or being wildly inconsistent until I fixed my QoS settings.

It’s a bummer that hard drives are priced this way. It’s been common for a few decades now.

“Managed Decline” That’ll be big.

That really does sound like a bag of hurt.

But it also sounds like a fuller alternative to what the big guys offer. And in the long run it would make it a well rounded space and protocol.

It’s too bad that it sounds like it both isn’t straightforward to implement properly, and attracts heat.

I wish them luck. Privacy and security would be great. People do use these spaces as direct messaging platforms. Even if it’s not the best all around idea. As social spaces evolve, the way people message evolves too. Making it secure earlier in that cycle is good.

Huh, that’s unintuitive to me. I remember people talking about too many hard drives in a case using too much power before. Overloading it, etc. 1-2W each would not overload a normal power supply. 🤔

Did hard drives just quietly get super efficient when I wasn’t paying attention? Or is something else going over my head here?

Yeah, using “self hosted” in your title is misleading.

They loiter in thrift stores.

I always thought it was a bad idea for people to treat Discord as a free CDN.

I hope they hit on something stand-out soon. To establish more sustainability. Seems like everything is in change right now.

Sever access sellers are kinda shitty and not what Plex should be about. IMO.

I’m not saying this action is good.

Apollo had an option to auto collapse it. Maybe Voyager should take that feature on too.

“NSFW” is such a terrible overloaded term.
