They have been talking about how creators want to own their platform and I could imagine that they don’t mind allowing a few such people to migrate off Threads to facilitate that. In the end what matters to them is that the large audience stays on their platform where they can serve them personalized advertisements.

I think the term often used is “NAT reflection”.

Power-line tends to be quite slow and error prone. If you have existing coax, that is likely the better option. You can get up to 2.5gbit adapters for it: https://til.simonwillison.net/networking/ethernet-over-coaxial-cable

Mostly fine, but at this point I would wait for the new Battlemage GPUs that should come out soon.

Yes, I could easily configure our Podman containers to auto-update, but given how there have been significant breaking bugs in Lemmy releases before, I think it’s better to not automate it.

Systemd is very useful for managing (rootless) Podman containers.

They are not included. You need to divide the 3.600€ by two main developers and then add up the irregular NLnet payments to that. So as a result it comes to approximately 3000€ for each of the two devs per month (6000€/month total). At least that is my understanding from what is written above.

Here it isn’t so heavy on CPU, but the database eats RAM like crazy. My guess would be that their server is constantly swapping out stuff from RAM due to insufficient surplus RAM and this as a result creates the high CPU load.

Hmm, I think there are more people that are #1 and #2 the same time (not me though) and the bigger divide is between those that rent a VPS and those that run a homelab.

You can compile it from source.

Usually* there is a database for the file meta-data that will benefit from faster access times of a SSD, the files themselves can be on a HDD.

*not sure how Immich specifically does it.

Well, it’s not a webfinger ID, as XMPP is not web based, but XMPP IDs have the same form, so if you link the accounts in the background you end up with something that is functionally like that.

There must be something wrong with your browser. There are multiple big screenshots in a slider on https://movim.eu

And the unrestricted instances on the join page can be used with any xmpp account, however I don’t recommend it as servers running Prosody currently only support a subset of Movim’s features.

There are literally multiple big screenshots on the page I linked and a big join button that brings you to https://join.movim.eu where you can chose an instance.

ActivityPub and XMPP can use the same ID system just fine. You can reach me on XMPP on the same ID as this Lemmy account.

Lol, what? Did you download an old version or are you just trolling?

And of course Movim is a client, a web-client like I wrote.

https://gajim.org/post/2024-06-10-gajim-1.9.0-released/ looks great these days. Give it a try.

https://movim.eu is also a really nice looking modern webclient

It’s not. Emoji reactions, stickers, audio-messages, audio/video calls are all supported by modern XMPP clients with smaller caveats depending on the client.

It discourages 60-something nontechnical family members that the app looks like WhatsApp? Are you being serious?

Snapshots are accessible in read only mode without reverting to it, snapshots can be easily configured to be taken automatically with a simple cron job, btrfs allows full control of snapshots over SSH, and you can easily copy a snapshot to another btrfs filesystem on the same or remote server.

Also btrfs follows the Unix philosophy, so of course you will be using additional tools with it, but btrbk for example makes all of the above really easy with no additional tools needed.

Obviously there are differences, but serving WebDAV on top of a btrfs filesystem is very similar to what you have made.
