  • Tagging music in Jellyfin & Symphonium

    Jump

  • Generally you can't tag stuff from your phone. Either tag it on MusicBrainz.org / ListenBrainz.org and then pull that in via Picard or Beets or make playlists

  • Messaging apps - XMPP vs Matrix vs ???

    Jump

  • A lot of the people reporting issues with Matrix being slow and resource heavy are reporting issues with Synapse, which is Element's big Python implementation. My Continuwuity instance, which is a server written in Rust, uses a fraction of a CPU and a total storage in the hundreds of megabytes. A few less features, but it has most of the ones people care about.

  • PoC - Use Matrix instead of emails for logins

    Jump

  • I kind of don't want to bother replying to your random claims, but I'll bite a little:

    That post is now five years old, and almost completely wrong or outdated. That first paragraph is also absurd fearmongering - and both technically impossible for matrix and against Element's buisiness interests. I develop my own homeserver software, and it's recently become more popular than dendrite. I use a client developed by a friend that seems like it has more features than element (although it's less user friendly).

    Being an official standard isn't working out particularly well for ActivityPub.

  • PoC - Use Matrix instead of emails for logins

    Jump

  • For spam protection, we use tools like meowlnir or draupnir with the cooperation of the homeserver to allow completely blocking spam invites - so if a matrix ID goes evil you can leave the room you have with them and add them to a ban list, and you can subscribe to a variety of other ban lists to ban things in advance

    Jump

  • Matrix is just as much as a standard as XMPP, if not more so because extensions actually get merged into the core spec

  • Hi there, Continuwuity developer here - This seems like an awesome idea! You might also want to see if you can use/extend the new oauth specification from MAS to create a more 'Log in with Social' like experience, too, although only Synapse supports that right now

  • Wondering if running a single user Lemmy is an overkill

    Jump

  • This is like the opposite of what you want to do for complex software - don't add more abstraction, or you won't know what to do when stuff goes wrong!

  • Self hosting with subdomains

    Jump

  • Certificate transparency, unless you use wildcard certs

  • Self hosting with subdomains

  • It is, although they all go.. to localhost

  • Linux gaming is growing! The Roblox client Sober was downloaded 1.3 million times this year.

    Jump

  • Only one of them plausibly hasn't, and that's because it's not got a multiplayer mode

  • MicroQuickJS is a JavaScript engine targetted at embedded systems. It compiles and runs JavaScript programs using as little as 10 kB of RAM.

    Jump

  • I feel like people didn't make this much fuss about micro python lol

  • A human doesn't have to cut any pieces off or inject any chemicals to be transgender.

  • ISO Opensource, Selfhosted, Web Trends Monitor

    Jump

  • I'm pretty much sure only free option for finding out what other people search for is Google Trends. It's very valuable data that is hard to get, so the companies that offer it charge quite a lot for it.

  • 700+ self-hosted Git instances battered in 0-day attacks with no fix imminent

    Jump

  • Yeah in my project open registration is behind an option called yes_i_am_very_very_sure_i_want_an_open_registration_server_prone_to_abuse lol

  • Fun/interesting things to self host?

    Jump

  • Here are some of the things I self host that I haven't seen mentioned:

    • Continuwuity is a chat server that talks Matrix, so you can join the chat rooms of a lot of open source projects or make end to end encrypted private chats
    • Forgejo is a self-hosted code forge (github alternative) - very useful
    • FreshRSS is a good one if you like to follow blogs, newsletters or pretty much anything 'news'
    • Grafana plus VictoriaMetrics and/or Quickwit is very useful for keeping track of the health of all your services
    • Homepage is a... homepage for all your services
    • Stalwart gives you a mail server. Set it up for any other projects that need to send mail, or as a backup for your emails, contacts or calendars - it's the easiest way to set that up self hosted. Making it suitable as your main email may need more effort (delivery).
    • Related to Continuwuity / matrix, you can set up the Mautrix collection of bridges, which let you bridge Discord, WhatsApp, IRC, telegram, and more into your matrix account or chats seamlessly.
    • LMS (lightweight Media Server, not to be confused with Logitech Media Server) is an alternative to Navidrome that I find works better with my library tagging and ListenBrainz
    • Speakr - audio transcription with diarisation. Very useful if you like to record meetings.

  • Zig quits GitHub, says Microsoft's AI obsession has ruined the service

  • You get rate limited to hell

  • Decreasing Certificate Lifetimes to 45 Days

    Jump

  • Which is fair enough
