No love for Nextcloud

Pretty much in general for me now. I gave it an honest go for six years but there were at least four instances where a server upgrade required nontrivial intervention to bring it back.

Syncthing + Keepass[DX] has been solid for me.

This is the first I've heard this perspective. It's worth keeping in mind the remainder of the year. Thanks for that

It's baffling to me why this blood ratio is circulating so much in the news. Did the Las Vegas shooter kill the American equivalent of 1.8 Israelis?

What I love about your comment is that you are using more or less the same methods that were around when the RPi3 came out.

I didn't consider weighing the storage penalty vs the cost of processor upgrades when keeping an SD or 720p version of files around. I know some people run two instances of radarr/sonarr/jellyfin for this reason. Like many, my connection is asymmetric, meaning the best I can probably serve is 1080p over WAN at maximum luck, or a few simultaneous streams mixed between 720p and 480p.

Example: Asteroid City is 18.5 GiB in 4k and 3.5 GiB in Web 720p, a roughly 5x's file size difference. If we estimate SSD cost is ~$50/TB, 5TB of 4k content costs an extra $50 to keep 720p around for WAN streaming.

That to me justifies not upgrading processing, using instead an RPi3 for low power storage maxxing, and eating the cost in file duplication. I simply won't be able to get on-the-fly hardware transcoding capability anywhere close to this price point.

Ngl, I was pretty bummed about the realities the previous commenters enlightened me to in this post I'm very grateful to their wisdom. But, you have given me so much new hope!

It also rewrites the URL slugs on every click, making it hard to leave the page the lazy way

It could happen to any of us

I sort of like Mr. Chickadee for the same reason. No talking or flashy gimmicks, just hand tools and the sounds of nature.

I rocked tt-rss for 8+ years, self hosting. Very configurable for me and it was basically my youtube homepage. However I'll say that on more than one occasion the update was not trivial.

They are a net gain to the site owner IMO. Years ago you could make a case for cutting into ad revenue, but in this day and age it's hard enough to be discoverable to generate any in the first place. Sites with high SEO are swollen with ads and fluff and useless. Nowadays I'm just glad to see something I wrote about or compiled spur healthy interactions and on page 1 of search engines.

That includes making third party dissemination easier. Perhaps I come away knowing and remembering more because of a bot's concision. Maybe that makes me more likely to share your unique idea with others IRL. I dunno

Is this a military thing? One of the characters in Generation Kill says this in the first episode.
