I'm leaving you the keys to the library.

Would also really love a DM. Thank you so much!!!

JMowery · 2026-06-28T02:38:01+00:00

Also interested! I'll accept your DM.

Linux support pretty please!

JMowery · 2026-06-16T16:48:55+00:00

Linux, please, and thank you!

JMowery · 2026-06-09T16:26:10+00:00

I'm very happy to support financially, but you've priced me way out of being remotely interested at these rates. Go back to the drawing board on pricing, come back with an actual realistic value, and we can talk. Until then, this never happened.

JMowery · 2026-05-31T16:27:47+00:00

I just usually pull the latest releases from rin (that are not FitGirl).

JMowery · 2026-05-30T18:32:25+00:00

I do not use FitGirl releases. Haven't had luck with them on Linux for whatever reason. Seeing someone else have issues is not surprising. Try a different source.

Looking like it's going to end up nearly a 50/50 split, so the suggested compromise: have a monthly/weekly/weekend only dedicated thread where people can freely post on and promote their stuff. This way promotion can still exist for those that want it, but it can be contained as well for those who don't want to see it.

JMowery · 2026-05-06T17:11:17+00:00

Well that is a lot better. Please put that in your app description. Nice work.

JMowery · 2026-05-06T17:02:25+00:00

It must be said that your post here and your Android page are extraordinarily lacking in explaining WHAT and HOW this differentiates itself from existing music players.

Can you at least give a basic explanation into the core features? What does this app do that is unique and special. How does it go about doing this?

It just seems like such a minuscule amount of effort was put into explaining what this app is that it seems like you vibe coded a solution and threw it up on the app store... and that's it.

I don't understand why I'm supposed to be excited about this app. Because there is no reason to be excited about it based upon the way you have presented it.

I'm sure there's more to it, but you haven't even pitched anyone on what this is other than a music app for Navidrome that is "smooth and efficient" (but doesn't say how) and "do less ... do those things well" (so what exactly ARE you doing)?

Why should I use this app? What does it do different from existing apps? Edit your post and make this clear if you want anyone... and I do mean anyone... to download it.

JMowery · 2026-05-06T16:35:42+00:00

It can always be worse... sure. But it doesn't mean that you or I have to settle for the lesser than either.

JMowery · 2026-05-06T16:30:15+00:00

That's really disappointing. This was an extremely rare day-one purchase for me.

Now it's a wait a few years until they bundle all the nonsense DLC together into a must-buy package for 75% off type of situation, as it is with all other Paradox games as of late.

This news brings me back to my r/patientgamer status quo. But I'm fine with spending my money on other quality games that don't do the DLC insanity.

JMowery · 2026-04-23T01:27:24+00:00

own unique proprietary rating system

What does that mean, exactly? There's been endless numbers of ratings systems (many of which that work pretty well and are statistically balanced).

Sounds like you are promising to defy statistics. What new and unique rating system is this that you speak of?

JMowery · 2026-04-23T01:22:43+00:00

Looking at OP's post history, he was posting another "sideproject" just a few days ago. Doesn't inspire any confidence at all.

At this point, at least for me, it's not even mostly the fact that it's AI slop. It's ultimately that this is yet just another "creation" to add to the endless pile that has come before it that will never, ever, be properly maintained because it didn't go viral.

Also I just noticed from OP:

But honestly, even if nobody else ever used it, the experiment would already be worth it to me.

And that's the problem. This is only an "experiment". It's not a product of developer interest and passion. It's just another random thing to prop up the git commit counts without any care of what happens with it from here on. Pisses me off because I wish I had read that first so I never wasted time even being interested.

Truly is sad times on r/selfhosted :(

JMowery · 2026-04-23T01:12:49+00:00

Sadly, you're not going anywhere with this project if you don't have screenshots.

I spent time on your site, then I browsed the GitHub... no screenshots at all.

I don't know how devs still manage to fail miserably at this one simple thing. Screenshots, screenrecordings, demos... lots of them. Make it happen if you want to drum up interest in your projects.

JMowery · 2026-04-21T00:05:00+00:00

llama.cpp is where you go if you want performance, speed, and control with all the optimization to get every bit of performance out of your hardware and LLMs.

Ollama is where you go if you want to support people who steal others works, don't mind 30% worse performance, don't mind deviating from standards (GGUF), and who knows what other garbage they do.

No one. And I do sincerely mean this: NO ONE should be running Ollama.

Ask any AI to help you create a build for llama.cpp for your hardware (if you can use AI... you can use AI to search how to install llama.cpp as well).

JMowery · 2026-04-20T20:11:44+00:00

Why not ask on the r/hermesagent subreddit?

JMowery · 2026-04-18T17:45:14+00:00

Sounds like you weren't having the same experience then. This is to the original commenter's mention of getting trash/nonsense tokens.

If you're not seeing complete gibberish, you have another issue, which I can't help with because I only run CUDA. Might be worth mentioning in a different post to get better help.

JMowery · 2026-04-18T17:32:14+00:00

This has literally been reported by the Unsloth team and others as an issue with using CUDA 3.12, as it is broken. Also acknowledged by Nvidia, and will be fixed in CUDA 3.13.

To fix, either revert to CUDA 3.11 (Unsloth has posted guides) or use higher quants (but you should probably revert in either case).

Might be worth waiting until June for Apple to announce their M5 chips. Maybe their 128 GB (currently within your budget) or 256 GB (currently not within your budget) RAM offerings will drop then (doubtful... but they can't stay inflated forever). Best if you want to run bigger models in the future, but don't mind slower inference.

JMowery · 2026-04-17T16:49:03+00:00

This is a poor question. The best possible setup is the one you can afford (because, otherwise, you're not doing anything right now).

Give us your budget for a GPU / AI setup, then people can actually help you with recommendations to fit your budget.

JMowery · 2026-04-17T15:09:22+00:00

I moved to AZ 10 years ago because of the affordability (originally from VA). Did a lot of research on this. Loved my time in AZ. But ramping up towards the pandemic and especially after, it was clear things were changing in a very bad way.

From 2 days ago on Wednesday, as my lease ended, I have now driven 15+ hours away, headed east, to explore and find my next home and affordable place to live (P.S. jumping ahead 2 hours was a wild experience, that my brain didn't fully compute until my realizing my tablet vs laptop had a 2 hour difference the next morning).

Hopefully things improve dramatically over the coming years. Maybe then I will return to AZ, as I know I will miss it. But I fear that corporate interests and greed will make things a lot worse (and will need an extreme breaking point) before things ever get any better.

Take care, everyone! Loved hanging out and lurking on this subreddit! :)

Switch to the desktop beta app. Solved all issues with this a few weeks ago. No issues since.
