5·2 months agoPersonally I don’t trust myself with self-hosting something as important as photos. It would probably be fine, but I’m willing to pay for someone else to manage the infrastructure.
Very happy Ente user here! It’s a great alternative to Google Photos and Immich (since I think photos are too important to self-host).
They have an easy guide for migrating from Google Photos (basically they can import a Takeout export directly).

I’ve got it installed on my phone with automatic backups enabled. It had no issues with duplicates from both Takeout and the existing photos on my phone. (I even did the upload twice due to running out of space the first time, and there were no dupes). The app has a pretty similar design to Google Photos, so it feels familiar. It also supports Google’s version of “live photos”.
You can create links to share albums or individual photos, and you can also add people to your plan.
I enabled the local machine learning analysis and, while it’s not perfect, it does make for a pretty nice searching experience.
1·2 months agoThat looks like Thunder! You should check out the latest version; it has an improved Block Management page.

Don’t forget Playlet for Roku!
is anyone aware of how to properly link comments on lemmy?
As far as I know, there is no way right now. There’s some discussion of having a more agnostic identifier here, but seemingly no movement yet.

The best you can get right now is using an extension like Instance Assistant for Lemmy, but that only helps you, not the person you’re responding to.
That said, if you use a mobile app (I use Thunder) it will usually handle post/comment links in-app, so it doesn’t matter what instance they link to.
Not yet. They’re supposedly “working on it”. This is the feature I’m most looking forward to.
That’s partly Lemmy’s fault for using a custom spoiler syntax. But yeah it sounds like Eternity doesn’t support it yet.
That said, there was an issue in their repo just recently closed, so it sounds like support is coming!
Like I commented above, I wonder if other spoiler tags work in Sync or if there’s something about the way this bot posts that breaks it.

What client do you use? It looks fine in Thunder. (I agree it’s spammy in general, but not because of the formatting.)
2·3 months agoWhoa that’s cool! It works in Thunder!
1·4 months agoNo worries! Thanks for mentioning it, I might check it out!
Syncthing Syncthing Syncthing works flawlessly /plugover :)
Do you know how this compares to Ditto?
System Informer is a nice, more modern take on Process Explorer. My favorite feature is the filter which supports RegEx and searches the process name, command args, path, etc. Really nice for monitoring a few important processes.
7-zip
If you’re on Win 11, use NanaZip. It’s a fork with better integration with Windows 11’s crappy conext menu.
Caffeine
If you have PowerToys this is built in now.
AnyDesk has started enshitifying too but it’s still better than TeamViewer.
What dongle do you recommend?
