  • It is run by Luke Smith, but is he a white supremacist? I know 4chan likes him, but I watched him for a long time and I didn't catch any explicit vibes.

  • how to start with self-hosting?

    Jump

  • As you want to do multiple different things, I recommend you install a hypervisor on the laptop, such as Proxmox. It'll make it easier for you, as a non-programmer, to manage containers and virtual machines.

    You will have to deal some high level networking concepts regardless of what level of self-hosting you do, so you should familarize yourself with it. IP addresses, ports, basic firewalling, etc.

    I won't stop you, but I will strongly discourage you from trying to host your own Email. It is a complicated mess of new standards stacked on top of ancient standards and it's miserable to work with even when it works. If you misconfigure your email server, you'll get blocked by every major email provider and there's no way back from that except starting over with a whole new IP and domain.

  • So what do you want to do? What need are you trying to fill?

  • Take a few steps back and ask yourself what needs you're trying to fill. I never heard of Yunohost before, but it sounds high-level and abstract. Are you a programmer? Are you familiar with Linux? Are you comfortable in a terminal? Are you familiar with networking?

    Find out what you want to do before installing "everything and the kitchen sink" solutions.

  • A good point wrapped in AI apologia

    You will not browse my sites through an agentic AI. You will browse my sites as a user, or you won't browse it at all. I am watching OpenAI struggle to navigate the maze of tarpits it keeps encountering and you are wrong if you think they'll find a single, easy and universal solution to this.

    I always believed that Seedit would be the only p2p self hosted reddit alternative and will tell why Im wrong

  • don’t be fooled by platforms that on the surface look good.

    But it didn't look good on the surface. I'm sorry you fell for it, but the warning signs were there.

  • Thank you.It is strange to me that the developers themselves would tell me that this wouldn't work, and that folder browsing requires Navidrome to support it inherently for clients to be able to do it.

  • Yes, can you please demonstrate that it works?

  • I'm complaining about what the literal developer of Navidrome told me when I asked about this. I'm not sorry for believing him.

    Can you show me a screenshot?

  • It's .../music/artist/album/song.flac

    This does not work with Navidrome if the metadata is weird. I have a lot of songs that Navidrome refuses to even list because their metadata is bad.

    I browse my music by folder structure, not metadata. Folder structure is universal and does not care about inconsistent metadata.

  • Gonic for server, Ultrasonic for client (android)

    I would use Navidrome if it supported browsing by folder structure, but they refuse to implement it. My metadata is so scrambled it might as well not exist and it would take months to fix it. I pretend it doesn't exist, because I don't use it.

  • Why are anime catgirls blocking my access to the Linux kernel?

  • That type of captcha already exists. I don't know about their specific implementation, but 4chan has it, and it is trivially bypassed by userscripts.

  • You bitch at me for being an ideological puritan and then ask me if I'm pure enough by your standards. Did you miss the part where I said I like what he does?

  • Dedicated music server or all-in-one media server?

  • Ultrasonic caches too much, on my phone. It has a limiter, but for some reason ignores it. Once a year I have to go and nuke the whole app because it's using all 120 gigs available 🙃
