  • Is *arr stack a real Netflix replacement?

    Jump

  • I already use Jellyseerr (recently renamed Seerr) but it does not resolves my "what to watch?" issue.

  • Is *arr stack a real Netflix replacement?

    Jump

  • Your expectation is absolutely correct, and I often find myself looking at my current Jellyfin collection and have absolutely nothing I want to watch.

    SuggestArr tries to fill this hole by automatically downloading content similar to what you already have, but I have yet to deploy it. (note that its development seems aided by LLMs and it has "AI" powered features)

  • "AI" truly ruins everything.

  • What could possibly go wrong?

  • 'What a great way to kill your community': Discord users are furious about its new age verification checks — and are now hunting for alternatives

    Jump

  • As long as the alternative is not another chat app that is not indexable by search engines. Forums fill the role pretty well, I don't understand why devs would use Discord in the first place.

  • Please, pretty please, be the spark that will stop OSS projects from hosting their "support forums" on Discord.

  • SSH Client for Linux Desktop and Android - Alternative to Termius

    Jump

  • A password manager? I know Bitwarden and 1Password can store SSH keys and their desktop clients have an SSH agent. No idea about using your keys on Android though.

    Certificates...ugh

    Jump

  • But you're still using Caddy as the sole reverse proxy, don't you? Do you have multiple Caddy instances that require access to a single certificate?

    Certificates...ugh

    Jump

  • I do not understand why you are using certwarden when Caddy can generate SSL certificates by itself.

  • Authentication in microservices

    Jump

  • This is obviously overkill for most infras, but in a previous position, because we had granular rights, we would forward JWT tokens from the API Gateway to the microservice (and from one microservice to another) so that every µService could validate the token and ask the Rights µService whether it had the required rights for the operation.

  • Upcoming exFAT Linux Driver Patch Can Boost Sequential Read Performance By ~10%

    Jump

  • Mostly cameras, they all format SD cards in exFAT now.

  • Removed

    I don't get why they're okay with this

    Jump

  • You are assuming that Windows has not already upgraded silently (or through anti-patterns in the UI) to 11, and what you are proposing is yet another hoop users have to jump through just to keep a "decent" experience.

    I believe now is the perfect time to evangelize for Linux: "Are you tired of Windows's enshitification? Do you own computers that Microsoft deemed to be obsolete just for the sake of selling new licenses? Give Linux a try."

  • Removed

    Jump

  • I believe that they are just not aware that an alternative exists: because they believe Windows 11 is the only OS available besides macOS, they put up with this shit and will try every single hack to tone down the enshitification, until they snap and move away from Windows.

  • Linux Desktop Renaissance

    Jump

  • It's probably because Distrobox only moves the distribution dependencies problem, while Homebrew handle dependencies itself. Homebrew is also the preferred way to install CLI packages on Universal Blue

  • Where do you draw the line regarding windows?

    Jump

  • The only reason I keep Windows is for Battlefield 6. Other than that, Linux for everything else and telemetry is blocked at the DNS level. (oh and I'm still running Windows 10 because 11 is a fucking nightmare)

    Still on the fence about using it for work, my previous two employers let me use Linux, I'm not sure I'll be as lucky for my next job. (and macOS ergonomics seem so alien to me, plus Liquid Glass is a shit show)

  • Is self-hosting on personal computer practical?

    Jump

  • You're 100% right, OP could sync their mobile apps when the PC is up and get everything to work when it's off.

  • Of course a Google engineer working on Gemini will have a positive spin on AI usage.

  • Cloudflare Tunnel: proxy-dns Command Removal 2026 | What are some nice alternatives to encrypted DNS?

    Jump

  • AdGuard's dnsproxy should fill the bill.

  • Fixing CI

  • Ah yes, I hate the fact that you cannot run GitHub Actions workflows locally in order to debug them.
