hey look its the guy from the meme

It won’t, it’s just a grift.

Lemmy instances comprise a relatively small part of the Fediverse.

Uhh… why did you just paste the comments from the video without the answers?

While TrueNAS is great I found it to be significantly more NAS-oriented than a general “home server”. It’s certainly capable just very into the weeds with permissions, users, groups, etc. It’s not very noob friendly. If you aren’t primarily dealing with a ton of data, you might want to look into something like CasaOS or Homarr which make sharing data on the network very “set it and forget it” and are more focused on apps.

Also recommendations include PiHole, Immich, Qbittorrent, Plex (or Jellyfin) obviously, SyncThing, Duplicati, Home Assistant (although you probably want to run that in a VM) and Tailscale and NGINX proxy manager for accessing outside the house.

it’s always some people who used some ancient client in 2008 and never bothered to try again.

The biggest hurdle for widespread adoption of open platforms, imo.

They are very noisy. Lots of clicking and whirring. Enterprise drives are not the same as consumer drives. As others have said this is a great price but I would not recommend using them in a room you are trying to focus in.

They generate a LOT of noise. Not a dealbreaker for most but something to be aware of for sure.

The greenest/cheapest way is to recycle an old laptop. They’re pretty efficient and unless you’re transcribing video anything in the past 10 years will be plenty powerful. Also the built-in battery is great in case of a power outage.

Then, just get one of those multi-disk USB HDD enclosure and pop some drives in.

For an OS, I like CasaOS which runs on top of Debain. It is a single-line install, and makes running docker apps very easy, for the services you mentioned and many others it can be set up entirely using the GUI.

+1 for Debian, also CasaOS is like a single-command setup for docker and other features with a nice GUI.

That kinda defeats the purpose of federation, no?

It’s astonishing! I get why dril or some celebrity would go with BlueSky, but journalists seem to be trying to make it a thing too! It’s like did you learn nothing?

Go on…

Enshitification was coined by Cory Doctrow specifically for the tech space

You’re not wrong it was coined this way, but he has referred to the process in other arenas where monopolies exist:

But it’s not just tech that faces the curse of bigness: your bank, your insurer, your beer company, the companies that make your eyeglasses and your athletic shoes — they’ve all run out of lands to conquer, but instead of weeping, they’re taking it out on you, with worse products that cost more.

Enshittification follows monopoly as sure as night follows day.

Annoying for sure, but “Enshittification” refers to a specific method in which platforms flex monopoly power to squeeze not just users, but business customers too. It does not just mean “things getting shittier”

And before anyone goes “language loses meaning over time” consider that if you change the meaning of “enshittification” then you need to also invent a new word to mean what “enshittification” used to mean.

Arguably the best ones. Because you know their moderation is on lock.

Lol you’re not wrong…

what app is that?

Pretty sure the solid colors are for people who need to shine a specific color of light, and there’s no simpler way to quickly do that. You either download a new app, or google image search and try to find something you can zoom in with.

The sound effects one I have no idea, haha
