I currently use Jellyfin to stream my music collection. It’s all stored on my NAS and I can give access to whomever I like. Downside is that the iOS music client, FinAmp, is… not pretty. It’s functional, but not great. I understand the player situation to be a bit better on the Android side.

As often as not, I’m using nano on the command line. It’s available in Windows through WSL.

Being honest, WSL makes running Windows so much easier.

Personally I use Nextcloud, but as you want local only, I have used Thunderbird. It’s fine. Cross platform, open source, remote to local sync. Basically, it ticks all the boxes for a calendar/agenda.

I’m not a fan of their MacOS based products, but I prefer iOS for the fact that I can rely on getting timely updates. For a good long while. That is not something that is generally true with Android. I’m fine with paying for that level of support.

Last time I looked, no Android vendors provided close to the same level of support.

That said, if I was a business and needed to field in house apps to mobile devices, everyone would be getting an Android device. Custom apps for iOS are a pain in the ass.

About time!

Yep! It should work in reverse too!

Depending on what you are trying to do, not necessarily. NextCloud itself doesn’t really care, as far as I know, as long as it’s address doesn’t change. AIO on the other hand is setup in such a way that it needs a resolvable domain name and a valid certificate for https.

This could be done by spinning up your own certificate authority and dns server, but that is a lot of extra work and would be local network access only.

Another way would be to use a free domain and a free certificate from let’s encrypt. The downside here is that the domain authority could yank your domain at any time, for any reason (as happened to all of the free .ml domains recently). At which point your certificate would also stop working resulting in a situation where you may have to nuke and pave.

If you want to be local access only, I would pick an install path other than AIO. If you want to be able to access NextCloud remotely, purchase a domain name.

A VPN, such as TailScale would be considered local network in this situation.

Currently living in Alabama, I really wish there wasn’t quite so much truth in this statement.

I never used Apollo. Back when I used Reddit I just used the official app. Glad to see some Lemmy apps have left TestFlight though.

I’ll be honest, I had forgotten MySpace was a thing back then. Every single page I went to was gaudy as hell and took forever to load on my dial up connection at the time. I’m a little surprised they’re still around. And damn, it looks a lot different!

RHEL is dead easy to pirate. https://developers.redhat.com/products/rhel/overview A developer account is needed (it’s free) but after that you’re golden.

If you are registered on an instance other than lemmynsfw, you or someone on your instance have to be subscribed to the community in question and you have to have set “Show NSFW” in your settings to see NSFW content.

That looks interesting. Looks like they only ship within the EU though.

Does anyone actually use LXD? I never could figure out the deal with this.

Nobody but us chickens. 😁

So I figured. I’m all for the 2nd Amendment, but the fear-mongering on both sides of the aisle really needs to stop.

Here’s an idea! Don’t trust Google or rely on their products.

Damn, that meme is cursed. I feel like I need to wash my eyes with bleach now.

In other, unrelated news, VPN’s are experiencing an unexpected spike in traffic. More at 5.

I used to start with searching Reddit, though that has been of less help lately. Wikipedia is helpful for getting a baseline if I have no clue about a subject. Lately ChatGPT has been helpful there as well.

And then of course, all search engines still accept boolean searches but you kinda need to 1) know the syntax the engine uses and 2) have a rough idea of what you are looking for.
