The Beehaw instance has defederated from the Lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works instances. Each instance is responsible for sending updates to other instances. Defederation means that no outgoing updates are sent and no incoming updates are honored.
Upside: Easy as pie and can be used by anyone who has used Dropbox/OneDrive/GDrive/whatever
Downside: everyone gets a copy of every file regardless. Good luck getting rid of old files. Could be fine, though.
Seconding Smart Launcher. Automatic categorization beats pretty much every other feature I can think of in a launcher.
I try to treat my devices as commitments as far as spending but disposable as far as usage habits and not having invent my own categories helps me just USE my phone instead of playing with it.
I use it for everything that doesn’t explicitly need to be shared or anything that is going to be printed. I needed to print a document as a booklet and LibreOffice had that feature and Drive didn’t.
I also keep a baseline suite of apps installed on every machine and that includes LibreOffice.
$50 for nothing. Cool.
I use Kavita because calibre-web doesn’t have reading progress. It can be a bit weird about what metadata it picks up from scanning your library. I have a lot of problems with books having the wrong metadata until I manually rescan the library.
I forgot to mention I also have a samba share running on it and it’s sooooooo sloooooow. I might need to reflash the thing just to cover my bases but it’s unusable for large or many files.
I use SSH to manage docker compose. I’m just using a raspberry pi right now so I don’t have room for much more than Syncthing and Dokuwiki.
Same here. I think people put undue meaning on the idea of having one single canonical correct place for a topic. Classic FOMO.
That’s great! I was wary of the functionality of PWAs the first time I used them (fearing a lack of functionality) but it’s been a breeze with every one so far.
Firefox for Android also has the “Install” feature although I don’t know if that’s technically a PWA or just a sandboxed browser window.
The part about it being unforgivable sounds extreme. How can there be “consequences” for simply temporarily opting out of a chat app?
Losing touch with friends for a while definitely sucks but if you need a break from literally an app then real friends will accept that.
Syncthing, Plex, and DokuWiki.
My needs are small but Syncthing is for standard file sync and DokuWiki is for a repository for my family. It’s been surprisingly useful to be able to spin and delete up a syncthing folder for some specific thing.
Plex is for my ripped DVDs and also a great way to consume my photos archive without keeping a copy locally on my phone.
To be fair about the archiving thing you have to consider that being able to make old data read only allows you to optimize a lot of things. With good engineering the allowance for archival should make the whole site faster and more stable. So sort of a soft feature.
magictcg for me as well. MTG is 95% of my reddit usage.
Short answer is yes. Long answer is that with text it’s much easier to stamp out illegal activity because keyword searches are cheap while semantic searches in images are pretty good but extremely computationally expensive. You can’t just scan for illegal activity in images the same way you can nigh instantly scan a body of text for “illegal-site.com”.
