“your face, my fist”

I’m in the same boat. I was a kde neon person for a very long time, but I eventually got tired of some weird issues I was having that I couldn’t find a fix for. tried fedora on a bit of a whim and everything just worked. Nvidia drivers were a breeze to set up, gnome is very nice out of the box and doesn’t take the configuring I’m used to on kde, and even just having gnome boxes pre installed is super useful and I get to skip the virtualboxes setup. very impressed with it overall. never going back

beautiful post, thank you!! I’ve been using the same traveling USB for ages at this point and will probably upgrade soon, this research is super useful

pretty certain their just confused why someone would say there’s not a niche for a chat client. chat clients always have, and always will exist.

interesting. I actually haven’t had any throughput issues yet but if I do I will definitely keep that in mind

yep!

I run jellyfin on bare metal because it makes it easier to debug imo, but I do use docker for caddy and some other little applications (like a tomcat instance for example)

my servers run alpine! it’s incredibly stable even for hobbiest use

I used to do that but the more I get into os programming the more I’ve found myself scrapping entire 1000+ line files and rewriting the entire thing 🙃

and I think “it’s a miracle I get anything done” is a very common thought in most programmers heads lol

I prefer to argue on the internet via my phone, which I can type pretty fast on thanks to the swipe to type.

and yeah programming simply doesn’t require fast typing, I tend to diagram everything out on my whiteboard before even opening my ide. I just have to write tons and tons of code since I’m in a few low level programming classes

I’m a programmer. I write hundreds of lines of code a day (of varying levels of quality ofc). I also fix technology (phones, laptops, desktops. tablets, etc). I’m probably one of the most “tech-savvy” people I know. I very rarely type faster than 70 wpm. it’s just not necessary for what most of us are doing.

camel for java. flat for c

luckily. that seems doable

thanks for the explanation. I’ll stick with jellyfin for now, I’ve heard rough things about privacy with Plex and that explains why.

personally, I wouldn’t want my files going through plexs servers, especially with how shit I’ve heard they are with their privacy policy. that’s a really interesting concept tho, and makes a lot of sense. I doubt jellyfin will ever do that simply because they don’t have the resources to host that as you said.

thanks for the explanation tho! greatly appreciated

I haven’t used Plex in a while, but I’m confused how Plex handles WAN connections without using any port forwarding? how is that possible?

https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/networking/caddy/

really? I never had an issue with just sticking it behind a reverse proxy, doing some port forwarding, and setting an apex domain record, that was it. curious what wasn’t working for you?

yeah and the said part is most people without the tech background would never notice the index.php in the URL, or care.

every single time I have issues with my self hosted servers. it’s always the DNS lol
