I think they’re referring to a trade in programme

Yeah, definitely a Memmy thing. Happened to me too.

For those who want something like Plex used to be (self hosted, simple, fast, beautiful, no bullshit spam), definitely check out Emby. I’ve been using it for years and it’s fantastic!

That is impressive. I host a fair amount at home but do rely on lots of cloud services too. My doorbell won’t ring on all my smart speakers if the internet is down!

Only if it turns up in a search result for something. I refuse to install their crappy app on my phone and Lemmy scratches enough of the itch that I haven’t been tempted back

I miss FBF

Oof. I feel there’s a lot more of this kinda stuff to come…

Yup, I’ve done the full switcheroo. Not going to be using Reddit’s app and 90% of my Reddit use is on my phone…

Wow, I wonder how long this will last!

Posting from it now, it’s fantastic!

Inb4 YouTube starts charging for API access… too soon? :(

Cannot updoot enough, I love this game. Best RTS I’ve ever played!

iPhone 14 Pro Max. I know, I know, but the battery life can’t be beat. Great speaker, screen and camera too. Used to have a Huawei P30 Pro that was awesome though

Free is always the best price! I’ve been using a Sonarr/SABnzbd/Emby setup on my home built NAS (unRAID) for about 7 years now. Until recently I had about 9.5TB of shows but then got ransomwared :(. Got about 4 of it back now and counting!

Try using a different sort - “Hot: Day” is sometimes better than “Active”.

I generally don’t trust most git GUIs - a number of our developers have used SourceTree on OS X before and it’s led to nothing but issues. The only one I trust is the one built into IntelliJ IDEA, otherwise I’ll use commandline.

It varies hugely. Rocket League is my most played on Steam and I think I’m at around 1700 hours, but that’s the kind of game I’ve played on and off for years. The other worst was Foxhole which I managed to rack up 600 hours in over a couple of months. Usually for a game I like it’ll be 100-200 hours, but it does vary hugely.

Good point - I did find torrents a lot more fiddly to set up though.

It seems like PeerTube does allow peer to peer streaming of watched videos too, so that might help mitigate the bandwidth requirements. The storage and transcoding requirements will be far larger than things like Lemmy though, agreed.

Very nice guide, thanks for taking the time!
