Agreed. Like it or not, old school auto complete was the same thing, just not as advanced. That being said, comment op probably didn’t click the link.

You should probably click the link

Publishing this on PeerTube is also a problem. I mentioned this in another post, but to expand, I really, really, want to like PeerTube. But:

• Many running servers don’t fully grasp the bandwidth requirements. The video I tried to watch in that post got “popular” (800 views) and it took 2 minutes to even get the progress bar to load. People will leave.
• The federated nature is even more disjointed than Lemmy. It feels like a bunch of different sites still, which makes it feel like less content.

IMO PeerTube could be great, but it has a lot of shortcomings that aren’t solved by adding features and fixing bugs.

Maybe we need a new movement (or revisit past ideas from the 70s) that focuses on ensuring the openness regarding freedoms of computing (😉) that combat proprietary SaaS offerings? idk.

This is why OSS as an org needs a change IMO. Licenses like SSPLv1, where software can be supplied for free with options that allow a company to make money without risk of a cloud vendor snapping up their software (think Redis, MongoDB, etc) need a place at the table.

So for those wondering on comparisons to other FOSS options:

Fittrackee (https://github.com/SamR1/FitTrackee): Very similar, but Endurain also seems to track weight vs just activity.

Wanderer (https://github.com/Flomp/wanderer): Also similar, but has social sharing and geared more towards trail recording like Alltrails. Also does not have weight tracking.

Note: Another big differentiator seems to be Garmin and Strava integrations.

Sounds like you should contribute to Fossify, the successor of Simple Mobile Tools.

You need a factor for niche communities. A post with 4 comments in a backpacking community with 20 subscribers is way “gooder” than 40 comments in a 5k subscriber news community.

I.E. add a community size factor.

What do you mean public voting? Everything in the Fediverse is public. Spin up a server and you can see all votes, even in the UI as an admin. Do you mean for users?

Not with sub domains.

I used to do what you do, just sub-domains for everything. I eventually set up an internal CA for *.lan and install the CA cert on all devices.

It’s actually more secure, since I dont rely on a third-party for certs and have full control over pinning.

So, anyone forking and setting it up with ntfy.sh?

But not FOSS like LS unfortunately

Try WG Tunnel instead. It will reconnect on loss, but you lose the Tailscale features (no big deal with dynamic DNS)

The whole point of this issue with Pixelfed is that none of what you describe is required.

Find any follower of a Fediverse account of any kind (Target Account) that’s on a Pixelfed server. Go to that Pixelfed server, view “private” posts from Target Account there.

No need to set up a server, or get sent anything. Granted, even without this flaw ActivityPub is not the way to go for anything private.

Fixed title: “HP found a way to test out saving costs on licensing.”

I may have something to read up on.

I used this: https://github.com/arabcoders/watchstate

It works, really, really well. You just connect it to the servers, and it syncs them by user. You can even let it run regularly while you are in your transition phase as a docker container right next to Plex and Jellyfin.

Mine’s even a bit more advanced, as I used samba-domain to set up an LDAP active directory for my fam, then the above to sync the Plex users to those users in Jellyfin, and it still worked great.

Edit: The WebUI is also pretty intuitive, but I did have to run it twice for my user the first time for it to get 100% in sync. Everything was fine after that.

This is why I think ActivityPub needs DIDs for identity management like Bluesky has with AT-Proto, but in a true, user owned way: https://fedid.me/

Give AP the benefits of AT, without Bluesky involved.

Realistically they would get a bailout “for the consumer”.

More likely than central hosting would be some of the same people enabling faster modes via software hacks currently making them run offline.

Open an issue? Devs are pretty responsive.
