Unrelated but how do people feel about the ai images when used for something like this.

The font is very telling for being DallE

“Bloat” the less system there is (while still working as a modern system) the better. If i need something i can install it myself.

Based on the headline this is not about blocking ai scrappers but by making them pay to do it.

Based on the discussion below which moved that goalpost the most likely answer is by making it cheaper to scrape “legally” then it costs to mimic millions of individual residential browsers with human users.

I don’t know how many aces cloudflare has up its sleep to detect secret ai but they definitely have the tools to make it pretty costly and difficult. There is also a broadband impact difference between a few capitalist megapigs scrapping secretly versus loads of global basement dwellers and smaller companies scrapping worry free.

If your library is on other platform like gog, epic, amazon or off platform .exe you can use heroic launcher and for most stuff it works just as well.

For some games there is a little more learning curve because you have to translate custom steam configurations found on protondb to do the same thing in heroic but overall you actually have way more control then steam.

The only reason “id think twice” is if you play lots of games with anticheat which does not work on every distro (like arch btw).

Psa: the reason Microsoft makes these tools linux friendly is because the know thats where the developers are at and they want them to stay familiar with their tools.

It also lowers the amount of fuss developers make when work forced them to use powershell etc because at least they can remote control and script from linux.

Whispers “try proxmox”

You dont need to limit yourself to just one, feel free to diversify your presence.

But for a real answer: The smaller ones; The smaller the more respecfull they feel.

Though more users does demonstrate capabilities. Not every server is fast or stable.

This is going to be controversial but “review wether this title is misleading for the provided article” might be a job an automated ai agent could do well with high accuracy. If not the post gets a small disclaimer which mods can remove if they please.

Of course that is if the article website is actually readable for it.

What even is this? Whatever is beyond that cannot be worth it.

Its like the riddles of ancient mythology but the reward is yet another website

How do you get “1” like this?

I suppose you have to roll 10 to get to 100 = 0

But then what?

Dont give up on it! Its very feasible that yt starts attacking yt-dlp. Invidious is already obfuscated. The more alternatives the better.

How do you picture this?

As far as i know many people try to advertise Lemmy on reddit but those posts are getting removed.

Are you suggesting we should crowdsource funding for actual ads? It might work to get it to stay and have many people see it but i am conflicted in the sense i believe todays internet advertisement is inherently harmfull and i want no part of it.

So does anyone know a proper alternative that doesn’t scare every non-tech person on my server?

I already lost people when we initially moved from a facebook group to discord.

I believe i can self-host a matrix client but no idea how well it will work with people currently having notifications by discord bot on their phone

I am running a few lxc which all run a docker container each.

What taxon said.

Most of my services have their own lxc with docker.

A few that need it are vms

It works so well i often forget how i set things up because its very leave and forget about it, Keeps working.

Proxmox all the way, cannot recommend it higher. I was very scared to try it in the beginning but its the best server choice i ever made.

You dont need to choose between lxc or docker. You can just run docker in lxc many helper scripts set you up like that by default.

Super technically they dont recommend doing so but i know others who do this and have never encountered a problem with it.

I am, that works really well actually and it even knows when the same file was moved.

But to add new files to that external library, which is in fact the only main library. We need to dig in immich file structure which at the very least enforces different directories per individual user and also uses those to store some forms of metadata.

We tried sharing a user in the beginning but the app did not seem to like that.

Now its not the biggest deal, just an annoyance. the fix i am currently thinking is to move the immich directory to somewhere hidden and us systemlinks to get all uploads centralized under a single directory for further processing.

Very subjective but there is literally only one for me and its Navidrome

The one obstacle is you have to know how to selfhost, but i know for proxmox servers there are single line commands that will install and run everything automatically

• Free open source software.
• Free from enshitification
• You own the music and therefore you set the quality. (Supports flac)
• works with different players on different devices (open streaming protocol)
• no bandwidth when used local, and stays working at home even when there is no internet.

Why people pay monthly to then not even own music when you could use that same money to just buy music while having a better quality experience that cant be taken away is beyond me.

I am aware and actually use this but it appears too restrictive for our needs.

The structure we were already using cannot be recreated. Honestly i could live with the default. But my partner who is less into computers likes to make their own backups on external hard drives and uses shared network drives rather then the immich web viewer.
