If you add support for kbin, you’ll probably going to add support for kbin’s microblogging feature. If you added support for kbin’s microblogging, might as well add mastodon support. Heck, might as well add pixelfed support to the mix, why not? Voila, now you have a super federated app.

It’s not 3rd party app developers fault that kbin didn’t have any stable api yet. Now that they fast track the api development, I think we can expect more 3rd party apps coming soon.

Revolt!? That dog is fucking embrace it!

Investors: shut up and take my money!

uBlock Origin is already less effective when running in Chrome than in Firefox. For example, it can’t detect CNAME cloaking on Chrome, while it can do that in Firefox. When Chrome finally enforce manifest V3, uBlock Origin will be even more neutered in chrome due to limited number of blocking rules.

I just checked my AMD box and tailscale there can consume ~15% of cpu time when the tunnel is under active use. When it’s not used it’s ~1.5%. But it’s a low power old AMD cpu though (AMD G-T56N), so I’m not use if it compares to Ryzen 5. On my intel machine, it’s ~5% when under active use, and idle at ~0.5%.

On my machine it’s consuming about 0.5% - 1.0% of cpu time, which is higher than zerotier in the same machine (almost zero).

Tailscale does a lot more things than just tunneling though. For example, on default installation it’ll catch all outbound dns request on the machine and route them through MagicDNS (100.100.100.100).

Whelp, nextcloud isn’t known for being fast. I don’t have hundreds of thousands of emails yet so I can’t comment on that, but one thing for sure is as you put more and more data on it, you’ll have to add more CPU and RAM to it or it’ll getting more and more sluggish.

I think using container instead of VM should be better for maximizing resource utilization in a raspberry pi. Instead of partitioning your tiny 8gb RAM into 3-4 VMs with even tinier RAM each, you can run a dozen of containers and probably still have some free RAM.

Believe it or not, NextCloud. It actually can work as an email client. And it can sync calendars, contacts and todo list too.

I always look for excuses to get more servers, so if you ask me, I’d say yes, get that new server. There’s no such thing as having too much servers since there are so many things I want to self-host.

I also regularly tear down my servers and see how fast I can set it up again. Keep my deployment scripts up to date.

You can enable it from settings -> remote control in SmartTube app. Also, if you’re using YouTube revanced, the cast button might be hidden because it was not functional. You can re-enable the cast button on YouTube revanced from revanced settings.

When casting a video, you’ll have to open the SmartTube app in your Android TV first because it’s not automatically launched when you hit the cast button in YouTube revanced. If it’s in the background or not yet running, the video won’t play.

Usually there is a flag to disable muted video autoplay on every major browsers: https://www.technipages.com/turn-off-video-autoplay-firefox-chrome/

Safari has it too: https://support.apple.com/guide/safari/stop-autoplay-videos-ibrw29c6ecf8/mac

Here is the documentation, pretty bare though: https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/latest/admin_manual/configuration_server/oauth2.html

There is also a rumor that said the OpenAI has changed how the model run, now user input is fed into smaller model first, then if the larger model agree with the initial result from the smaller model, then larger model will continue the calculation passed from the smaller model, which supposedly can cut down GPU time.

I use keycloak. Pretty steep learning curve, but once properly set up, it can do pretty much anything.

But if you’re in a pinch, NextCloud can act as an OIDC auth provider out of the box.

Does ssh works? If yes, you can use autossh to create persistent ssh tunnel to your VPS.

Eh, the core dev is a bonafide tankie though, which immediately apparent when you check his activities on Lemmy.ml and lemmygrad, but who cares. The software is open sourced, with plenty of contributions from people all over the world in the past few months. The moment the dev brought politics or other shenanigan into the software, it’ll going to get forked immediately.

I just tried installing SmartTube on my Chromecast Ultra today and found out it can pair with YouTube revanced. This fixed my number one issue with revanced where the cast button is not working.

According to this post they moved to njal.la . Looks like it was previously hosted at Hetzner.
