Thx for fighting for us and with us. wish him for the best

But how does this old pc able to run m$ wins that needs cloud account? The most unrealistic point is m$ has empathy on old hw and their users. That’s my point.

Really? You guys only complains about Roblox? Not the crt mon? Not the monitor size? Not the horizontal pc case? Not kids able to complete a full sentence? M$ would drop support for old kb and mouse if they can. Only linuxer would spare their love for old hw.

Enlightenment has animated wallpaper longtime ago including Linux

Kobo + Koreader

Ebook reader worth every penny. But I don’t want to pay big corp

the new one😂

I am surprised to unable to find this type.

Honestly, Linux has better support for the old hw, even better than m$ win.

I feel sorry for your situation. But at least in lemmy the dev are willing to try to resolve this problem. Low chance is still better than zero chance.

Here is an wild idea. Since a few communities are so divided and clearly they only have a good time when they talk to ppl exactly like them. Flame war happens when two groups of hardcore opposed users argue. Since normal users won’t have all days to argue with either side, if one side leaves, the wars is ended.

So instead of banning users by admin or blocking one users each time by users. Can we have allow users to create their own public group (or a gang)? Users can join any groups. Instead of blocking one user, users can simply block the whole group. Posts and comments will be hided if blocking.

Advantages:

1. No banning is needed means admin’s time and gang members’ time can be saved.
2. finally no one disagree with those gangs members anymore, so I guess they’re happy
3. instead of using time from admin and uninvolved users, users who frequently involved controversial topics everywhere should spend their own time to create a group for staying in their comfort zone.
4. uninvolved users don’t have to read all those flame war

Disadvantages:

1. those gangs become more extreme cuz they miss the opportunity to understand each other
2. dev have to do more work
3. server may have more load
4. some users might say those gangs should host their own instances

Ps: I don’t use the term community because our board is also called community. I don’t want to mix them up. May be i should call it users group, but I am too lazy. I do agree better word should be used.

I love lemmy the project. But there has too much political arguments in some communities and they will hate you if you aren’t 100% agree with them. Even the post and the group/community are not political, comments will turn it to political. I am kind of tired(although I know some ppl are thrilled with political arguments). There is not much the devs can do, but the content does affect the user experience quite a lot.

Nevertheless, thanks for all the hard work, nutomic and dessalines. I will donate.

Ppl actually moved away from helm because lots of small helm chart is abandoned. And lots of ppl’s matrix already integrated with oidc. I prefer desktop app and mobile app. Haven’t looked into web ui. The real problem for matrix is the bridges: support is minimal, lots of trial and err; code is in beta, make me worried.

Even without ess or this helm chart, lots of ppl can still run matrix in k8s. But it’s good to see them to release more open source code. Thx for the news.

Maybe we should be glad about it

Maybe you don’t like it. Have you tried those ai for your logo?

Also, I think your project is really interesting. Good job!

I thought of writing a notes app too because sadly I can’t find something I want, even these has so many notes there already. So I have two questions for you:

1. Have you thought about switching to xilem in the future? I don’t mean to disrespect since I was waiting for a mature rust framework when I thought about starting my poc. I worry the gui framework I used get abandoned. (Tauri look nice, but I suspect editor is really performance demanding later. That’s why Raph have to pause/drop his ambitious editor project for his gui framework)

2. Have you thought about moving to client server model in the future? The reason is that I can hardly find a good open source project for platform for phone and allow multiple contributed authors. Maybe hacking/stitching wiki+markdown+git/syncthing is my dream.

Just random chit chat, don’t mean to pointing finger. And thanks for open sourcing your wonderful work.

I like their donation model. I hope they success.

My 4 generation i7 4g desktop is still fine to do that. Lol.

I won’t use that pc for complicated scanned un-optimisted scene though.

Since lots of ppl already cover laptop different options, i will skip this part.

Blender is a huge topic. What exactly does your wife exactly do? Something like sculpting, rigging don’t need much gpu power. How complicated the scene is it? For a complicated scene with un-optimisted mesh, it can be expensive. The most expensive part should be high quality rendering. But you can use render farm to “outsourcing” jobs to remote hosts.

Also, it’s 2024. Ww can already launch and run blender remotely thru vm and streaming technology smoothly.

Lots ppl nowadays don’t even own a pc or mac. The market shares already prove lots of ppl can live without desktop. Unless your family need to use complicated softwares like cad, compilers… My point is most ppl do consider their phone and tablet just work. And those two’s maintenance are a lot simpler. Of course, your family, your choice.

Or we can just decrease the importance of desktop. Users like mobile more. So I just self host stuff and offload data and apps to my server. Thin client (desktop/laptop/mobile/tablet) + thick server.

Very cool. You can check out ollama for hosting local ai model.

OIDC is an extension of OAuth2 that focuses on user authentication rather than user authorization. Once OIDC authenticates a user, it uses OAuth2 specifications to perform authorization.

The easiest way to support oidc is thru using lib from your framework/language. All major language should already have oidc lib. Take a look for authelia which has pretty nice doc. We host lots of app and we don’t want to login hundred times for each apps. It’s nice to login once only and all apps play nice to each other ;)

Is it for self-host ppl too?

For all projects/apps, I am looking for OIDC, S3 and PgSQL. It’s easier to implement these features earlier and these features will make any projects more popular in the self host community.

I don’t want an exact clone of Instagram server. Only publishing content to my friends instead of strangers is exactly what I want ;)

Btw, how does the others find a new client? Exposing ip to strangers from internet sounds horrible. Can we only allow connecting via links invitation with expiration?

Also check out https://getaether.net/ although this project is dead and it always don’t have enough ppl. They also have to implement a feature for removing illegal content.

I am glad we have Lemmy now.
