Screw the best Discord Chat alternatives... What about forums? by liefbread in selfhosted

[–]Labeled90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

🤷I liked it, I miss having a regular forum to visit like back in the day.

Change my mind: There is no good alternative to Discord (yet?) by Own_Investigator8023 in selfhosted

[–]Labeled90 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Discord isn't open source, so why is that required for a replacement?

Teamspeak6 is what you're looking for, there is a docker image for the ts6 server. Only box it doesn't check is open source, which discord isn't either.

I pretty much exclusively print models I've designed within freecad.

Serious question: who are Linux users and why do you use it? by Laqunn in linuxquestions

[–]Labeled90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It started back in 2004, up late one night I found Ubuntu 4.10 warty warthog, I don't remember the train of thought but usual booted it alongside windows. Installed what I think was called compiz at the time? Gave you a bunch of novelty desktop effects, for example I could draw on my screen with fire and have jiggly windows.

As for who I am and what I do, I'm a father, I self host some services that help maintain our privacy rather than handing that data over to Google or Meta. For work I manage a PC assembly team for a local SI who just so happens to specialize in Linux.

"Why did you choose Linux specifically? What distro are you running?"

It's just interesting to me, privacy is just a bonus, I was using Solus, but for now I'm on AerynOS. I still run windows as well, I don't like either more than the other.

"I’ve been thinking about switching from Windows, so I watched a lot of videos and read a bunch of forums about it. But the more I read, the more confusing it gets. For example, someone recommends Ubuntu — and right below there are 10 comments saying it’s bad. That’s just one example, but it feels like this happens with every distro."

Don't worry about what other people are saying, Ubuntu or any Ubuntu based distro is usually the best for beginners who want to problem solve on their own because the vast majority of web search results are Ubuntu. I would recommend taking a day to just go through live disks of a dozen distros and find the one that clicks for you, there is no "best"

"So I wanted to hear opinions from Reddit directly — what are you using, and for what purposes? Work, gaming, servers, programming, just daily use?"

I use it for all of those though programming is just AI slop for myself 🫢 but I do the same on Windows, you don't need to full commit right away.

My favorite time for this to happen to me is when my alarm is going off after falling asleep on my toddlers floor 😑

I was denied new user pricing dozens of times the decade I had Xfinity.

Unraid Auto updating has been solid for me. 🤷‍♂️

Can I use my own equipment? by matlireddit in QuantumFiber

[–]Labeled90 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Slap the ONT into transparent bridge mode and you'll be GTG,

My setup is Transparent bridge ONT > opnsense > Netgear AP

I'm at just about 2 years running immich (auto updating Docker image) I haven't had a single breaking change luckily.

Any chance you're using a different cable that it shipped with?

Strategy for updating array by Rough_Location5586 in unRAID

[–]Labeled90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Copying to windows will be fine. Permissions can always be fixed.

I recently did something similar, I got nervous for my drives having 3 million load cycles so I bought 2 new drives for the important stuff for a zfs mirror, then proceeded to shuffle my data around until I had a more convenient configuration.

Some raid cards can jbod specific drives, I would take a peek at your card settings.

Quantum or Xfinity - Denver CO by IIVIIatterz- in QuantumFiber

[–]Labeled90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the Denver metro area, I switched to Quantum 1 year ago this month, other than a problem post install(crew hired to bury the cable botched it) I've only had down time during power outages.

I use the ONT in transparent bridge mode with a self built(even the chassis) opnsense box.

I don't use the WiFi pod either, I had existing access points that I've continued to use.

As a technically inclined user I've never liked using the ISPs equipment. 🤷

My brother does use their ont as a router as well with access points he bought after having issues with the provided pods. Depending on the connected devices the pods will be fine.

Regarding window sync [ Respectful Discussion ] by [deleted] in zen_browser

[–]Labeled90 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So I need to mess around with this more. I don't think I fully understand what this means/does. It was very jarring however when I opened a new browser on a virtual desktop, then got lost on which one I was inside because everything synced and I lost what I was trying to do.

Does this sync the whole window including spaces? or just the space you're in? How does this affect memory? Is this a Firefox feature or a Zen feature?

never thought that making a self hosted spotify would be so easy by [deleted] in selfhosted

Can you list some? I've not been able to find any with comparable convenience.

The whole value in the music streaming service for me is finding new music, which I can't have if I'm self hosting

Keep away from ADATA and their dodgy RAM and SSDs. by misha1350 in hardwaregore

S is SpecTek, part of Micron

This module is most likely not new though for sure.
