Hello! I have jellyfin+qbittorrent+radarr on my home server, but I can't make it work with hardlinks. When a download finishes, it just copies it to the /movie folder, doubling the disk space. at least, I think that it's just a copy, because the disk space is double and find ./downloads -samefile ./movies/path/to/file.mkv returns no result, meaning if I understand correctly that file.mkv is not hardlinked to any file in the download folder (but it should).

this is the docker compose:

radarr:
    image: lscr.io/linuxserver/radarr:latest
    container_name: radarr
    network_mode: container:gluetun
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
      - TZ=Europe/Rome
    volumes:
      - ./radarr-config:/config
      - /media/HDD1/movies:/movies
      - /media/HDD1/downloads:/downloads
    restart: unless-stopped

HDD1 hard drive is formatted ext4, that supports hardlinks (in fact I can create them manually), and in the radarr settings the checkbox "use hardlinks instead of copy" is checked.

Ideally I'd prefer softlinks instead of hadlinks, but I don't think there's a way to do it natively, I think I'd need an external script

Any tips? Thanks in advance!

Hello! I was wondering if running periodically a script to automatically pull new images for all my containers is a good or a bad idea. I'd run it everyday at 5.00AM to avoid interruptions. Any tips?

EDIT: Thanks to everyone for the help! I'll install Watchtower to manage the updates

Hello! My disk space was out of space left, so I decided to remove some snapper snapshot. snapper list listed over 360 snapshots. I removed them, and freed 50Gb of space. One of these hasn't been deleted successfully:

Cannot delete snapshot 166 since it is the next to be mounted snapshot.

it's description is writable copy of #156. How can I remove it? should I do it using btrfs subvolume delete?

here's the output of sudo btrfs subvolume list -t /:

ID      gen     top level       path

2969    341679  710             .snapshots/167/snapshot

all those timeshift subvolumes are there because before snapper, I used to use timeshift. I tried to remove them:

sudo btrfs subvolume delete timeshift-btrfs/snapshots/2023-09-18_18-25-33/@/var/lib/machines    
ERROR: Could not statfs: No such file or directory

If I understand correctly, it means that I should give an actual "system" path instead of the path in the table, but I don't understand which path

thanks in advance to everyone!

Hello! I have a problem: sometimes I instinctively refer to a movie by the English name (for example, Star Wars), but if I search for it in jellyfin it is not found, as the italian translated name is "Guerre Stellari". I'd like to be able to search for it with both the original name and the translated name. The original name is present in the metadata, it just isn't used as a search parameter. Is there a way?

EDIT: I understood the problem: i'm stupid

Star wars episode IV had both the translated and the original title, and was correctly find when searching "star wars", but episode V and VI didn't have the string "star wars" in the original title! and this is why jellyfin didn't find them. I edited the metadata and added it, now it works perfectly. Thanks to everyone!

Hello guys! sometimes I watch movies with friends over jitsi meet, and in order to share just a single window with just its own audio I use chromium, that has the "share tab" option. However, I'd like a more general solution (I cannot play mkv files on browser, for example). I'd like a compact way that creates a virtual device sharing the window (even if the window gets minimized or hidden behind other windows!) and its audio, without the audio of all other windows (I don't want my notification sounds to be shared too). a quick online search gave me only "complex" answers, that I'll try only if a more convenient way is not available.

[I'm running EndeavourOS KDE Wayland]

Thank to everyone in advance!

Hello fellow selfhosters! I have a laptop and a tablet (both running endeavourOS), and I want a certain folder to be always in sync. I also have a very potato server.
My two options currently are Nextcloud and Syncthing. The laptop and the tablet are rarely online at the same time, so I need the server as middleman (so, no syncthing laptop <-> tablet, but laptop <-> server <-> tablet).

Which one do you recommend? The power consumption (of the client) is also very important, because both the laptop and the tablet are battery-powered

I'm also open to other options as well!

thanks in advance to everyone!

Edit: thanks to everyone for your precious help! I finally set up syncthing and it's working flawlessly!

Hello! In qalc I can do calculations using measuring units like this:

> 5 W * 3 s

  (5 watts) × (3 seconds) = 15 J

I'd like to be able to do something similar also in GNU Octave. I think the symbolic library could be a place to look at, but I found nothing "already done". Do any of you know of a way to achieve this functionality?

Hello! I'll try to explain what I'm looking for: I sometimes have to write simple web pages (not just text, also buttons and video players and so on), but I really really hate writing html code. What I'm used to is QML, which I like a lot, because of the ease of placing objects exactly where I need using the anchors and the Layout objects. What I'm looking for is a language or something with a similar syntax, that can then be "built" to plain HTML/CSS/JS. Is there something like this? I know I can compile Qt/QML for webassembly, but I'm having huge amounts of problems, and also I'd like to have the possibility to have a plain HTML result, not necessary bind to the server side.

thanks in advance!!

Hello! I'd like to follow some niche meme pages on instagram with my RSS reader app (feeder), and found out about RSSHub that seems exactly what I need. However, I tried using some of the public instances and except for the first time after requesting an RSS feed, it got rate limited and completely blocked. Does self hosting it solve the problem? Is any of you using it reliably?

Hello! Today I learned about the existence of LibreY, and the project seems very interesting. I was wondering, how does it compare with SearXNG? which one is easier to self host, and which one is lighter on resource usage? Which one gets rate-limited less? I'm particolary interested in opinions of people who used both

Thanks in advance!

Hello fellow pirates! I'm tired of having all the telegram premium ads and antifeatures in the client and I'm looking for a client that removed them even if it's against the TOS. Any tips? I'd rather use an actual open source fork than a cracked version of the original

I'm looking for both Android and Desktop (Linux)

What I want is to remove the hateful ads in the channels and the "buy premium to unlock these emojis", and also to be able to arrange the folders in whatever order I like, without being forced to keep the "All messages" as first

thanks in advance!

Hello! I just came across Presearch, and it looks very interesting to me. If I understand correctly, at the moment it's just another metasearch engine, but they say they're planning to add their own index. How would a distributed search engine index work? Opinions on this?
