!Ah, general kenobi!<

I think the missing key there is the independent statically built binary for apt that does not depend on pretty much any part of the base system actually functioning. That’s what I couldn’t find, is there one and I just suck at Google?

pacman is the best and I’ll stubbornly refuse to entertain any other opinion. It’s in my experience the least likely to just randomly rip the system to shreds. I don’t know if it has more through prechecks or what bit I’ve had debian and Fedora (apt and dnf) rip the system asunder trying to jump multiple major versions in an update of a system that hadn’t been online in a long time.

I don’t care if jumping multiple releases at once “isn’t supported” it shouldn’t be that frail and arch will happily update something many years behind as long as you update the keyring.

Even in the event your system somehow does get hosed you can fix almost everything by just chrooting in, grabbing the static pacman binary, and running “pacman -Qqn | pacman -S -” I’ve recovered systems that had the entire /bin wiped (lol oops moment with a script) and as far as i know apt and dnf have no equivalent easy redo all.

Already mentioned and ruled out unfortunately, unless you can find some documentation we couldn’t

None of the features i need exist in the community edition unfortunately. https://h-mdm.com/headwind-mdm-version-comparison/

Which seems to be a common thread with the “open source” mdms. Over half the actual useful mdm features are not available for the self hosted version

In what way? Why does management of tablets inherently require paying a third party to run the software

One of the documentation is mostly useless ones. Maybe I’m blind but i searched for 5min to try and find any instructions at all for their official docker image and found nothing. Seems they only want you using the cloud now even if you self host as i can only find aws or render documentation, there is also kubernetes but I do not have a kubernetes setup nor do I want one for just this single application.

Guess i can try to muck through the docker without instructions and hope it’s simple enough without any gotcha steps.

Personally what I do and what I would recommend is putting the reverse proxy on the VPS and having it reach out to the services over the VPN, rather than for security this is for performance reasons. Caddy and nginx reverse proxies can both be setup to cache static content. This helps remove the delay of reaching out over the vpn for some things and in my experience made a noticeable performance difference in services that had cachable content.

I mean i understand praising it, i still primarily use plex despite their Shenanigans and will VPN to bypass the remote streaming charge. I still have jellyfin installed but it has several issues for me still.

I have quite a large library and I still regularly have issues with matching especially on anime. It will either fail to match at all until I do it manually, or match incorrectly and I will have to manually correct it. I still frequently have playback issues for no apparent reason especially on Android where I will hit a file that just refuses to play back for no apparent reason with none of the error logs being particularly helpful on files that play perfectly in Plex with absolutely no issues, I have also been affected by the memory leak problem that has plagued many a jellyfin user. Where even if you’d simply turn the server on and never play any files it just randomly keeps growing in size more and more and more over time until the server hits oom even on a server with 128GB. This has been reported by so many users but the developers just seem uninterested in tracking it down. I have both friends and family that use my server and the device support is basically everything even remotely capable of media playback for Plex but is unfortunately just not as robust for jellyfin.

I know that in this particular subreddit I’m likely to just get downloaded for saying it but sometimes the open source solution just isn’t as good and this is definitely one of those cases. It’s been getting better has time goes on but it’s not a solid replacement yet for a lot of cases

what are you using swap for

I don’t even see a child character? I feel like I’m missing something here but I went and checked the ffmpeg documentation because they are using Anubis and it appears to just be a generic chibi Style character that looks to be maybe early twenties style adult.

Do you just assume that any cartoon character is underaged? There’s literally no indication that that character is in any way underaged whatsoever, it appears to be a standard chibi-style depiction of a generic adult.

I think you may need to consult a therapist or other mental health professional if literally every depiction of a cartoon character in a Chibi art style causes you to see pedophilia

Rustdesk, open source, cross platform, self-hostable, and at least in my experience works great

I’m not sure you understand how a suggestion algorithm works, it’s not something that can be run locally without having to then load and process thousands of messages. There is no aspect of that that could be run locally while simultaneously not having to load all the messages you’re attempting to sort and make recommendations on.

It is not at all equivalent to a word filter, a word filter is not attempting to find something, it’s a filter that applies to things that are already being loaded regardless. When a post comes in the word filter looks to see whether or not it has a word that needs to be filtered. An algorithm needs to find new content out of all the content available and then attempt to determine whether or not it’s something that should recommend meaning the client would have to load thousands upon thousands of random posts from the Federalists in order to make that algorithm work

Discovery is just the worst, lemmy has a problem with it as well but it’s somehow just amplified on Mastodon. There is basically no way for me to organically find things I would be interested in. If I don’t already directly know how to find someone or something I want then I’m never going to come across it.

Compare that with blue sky which has a basic Discovery algorithm that I can pretty easily tune to what I want using filter lists I was able to very quickly get it to understand what type of artists I’m interested in following and what type of content I want to see and what I don’t want to see and through that I have discovered a bunch of artists I otherwise never would have known about.

Mastodon works good enough if you only want to follow very specific people that you already know about and can easily find but if you’re hoping to actually organically discover content I found it awful. The feeds for instances are pretty generic they don’t try to tailor to your interests it’s just a dump of whatever is on that instance or whatever it’s Federated with depending on how you view it which basically just guaranteed it was always filled with stuff I couldn’t give less of a shit about.

It’s very possible that the interface has changed since I last used it but at least when I used it the interface was pretty clunky and not very fun to use at least in my opinion, I did host my own instance for a little while and used a Twitter bot to copy the art of artists I liked over to a mastodon feed but you know all those Bots broke a little while before it became X so ended up giving up on that

Yeah saw that and wasn’t a fan, I’m probably in the minority here but i don’t just blindly want fediverse if its a bad experience. Lemmy is ok, still has some issues but i can use it without being frustrated. But mason just sucks imo

Would probably get more traction on bluesky, i know it’s not decentralized but at least it’s open source. Mastodon just sucks to use (imo)

You can, grab the release from github. But let’s be real, you won’t remember to update it manually

You would, it’s very very straightforward they made it very simple. I literally walked multiple non-technical users through it when it happened because I have moved some of my friends and family to Linux. I won’t say that it wasn’t tedious and that it wasn’t annoying for them but they got through it just fine
