  • Yeah it definitely does not work in this case. Spent many hours online looking through threads of people with the same problems, but no real solution. I think it has something to do with Unraids MFS implementation. Might be a little older. Only way to get it to work is have a script run every 10 minutes to check for the drive and if it’s not mounted, mount it. Works well enough.

  • I’m using UnRAID for storage and getting another Linux machine to mount a share on boot has been an exercise in futility so I get it.

  • Not if you use a vpn. Being that this is Selfhosted, the best idea is to just host your own Recursive DNS server.

  • Yeah the excitement comes from the fact that they’re thinking of replacing themselves and keeping the money. They don’t get to “Step 2” in theirs heads lmao.

  • TBH idk how people can convince themselves otherwise.

    They don’t convince themselves. They’re convinced by the multi billion dollar corporations pouring unholy amounts of money into not only the development of AI, but its marketing. Marketing designed to not only convince them that AI is something it’s not, but also that that anyone who says otherwise (like you) are just luddites who are going to be “left behind”.

  • Airport security was nationalized as the TSA. Aside from that no.

  • I am pretty rabidly anti-AI in most cases, but the use case for AI that I don’t think is a big negative is the distillation of information for simplification purposes. I am still somewhat against this in the sense that at the end of the day their summarization AI could hallucinate, and since they’ve admitted this is a solution to a problem of scale, then it’s not sensible to assume humans will be able to babysit it.

    However… there is some inherent value to the idea that people will end up using AI to summarize Wikipedia using models of dubious quality with an unknown quantity of intentionally pre-trained bias, and therefore there is some inherent value to training your own model to present the information on your site in a way that is the “most free” of slop and bias.

  • There are tons of apps that you use that are just well packaged PWAs, packaged as an app store app

    So… native apps, that interface with a PWA using a web view or something.

    There’s the kicker.

  • Half of the equation is that those making the PWA need to make it well. The other half is that the platform you install it on has to support it well. And Google and Apple have decided to support PWAs as little as possible (in some cases removing support for them altogether. See Apple removing the ability to use them entirely in the EU). And since those two companies make the two most commonly used mobile OS’… well it’s better to just go with a native app.

    The #1 biggest problem with PWAs on iOS for example is the lack of push notification support, which for a lot of apps is a nonstarter. Is that the PWA makers fault? No. Does it make that PWA suck anyway? Yes.

  • I’m well aware of why they’re terrible, (Safari as well). However the unfortunate result is that they are terrible.

  • Because PWAs are terrible unfortunately.

  • Because this is the selfhosted community, not the FOSS community. There is some overlap, but they are different. There are many reasons to not use Plex, it not being free and open source are not among them.

  • Not to Trump. To him, being white is the key.

  • When Trump says “racist”, what he means is “doesn’t give enough preferential treatment to whites”

  • I mean, international lawsuits existed long before the internet but I read you.

  • https://wallabag.org/

    Supposedly Wallabag works Kobo readers. Most people self host Wallabag but I think they do have a hosted option as well.

  • It’s self hosting as long as you are in control of the data you’re hosting.

  • Nginx Proxy Manager is probably your best bet at this stage. It’s a simple to use GUI with QOL features like automatic certificate acquisition built on top of the industry standard Nginx. It should do everything you need it to do and it’s hands down the easiest to get started with.

    When you reach the point that you’re trying to do something outside the scope of Nginx Proxy Manager’s gui, that would be a good time to get into another solution that’s config file based. My weapon of choice here is Caddy. I LOVE how simple and minimal the configuration is and it does a lot of things by default that other solutions don’t.

    Plain Nginx is a solid tool but working with it directly will be the least straightforward and beginner friendly of all the solutions. Only reason I’d recommend straight Nginx is if you want experience with it for work.

    Traefik, don’t bother with until you have an actual reason to use it over other solutions (Like you’re getting into clustering or kubernetes or anything else that requires dynamic configuration instead of static.)

  • It’s JBOD with parity, yeah.
