  • I moved my community by just adding a notice in the sidebar, should I have done it differently? 😭

  • They're the exact opposite of a fascist...

  • But those are just for music, that's why I didn't list them. I assume most people use Jellyfin (or Plex) for video content.

  • Speaking of third party apps, here's some recommendations:

    Android: FindroidWorks absolutely great, it's very rare that I even find a bug.

    iOS: SwiftfinI don't use iOS but this is the one I installed on my friend's phones.

    Linux (and maybe Windows): DelfinThis is a GTK 4 app for Linux and maybe it has a Windows build too but I didn't check. It's not perfect, there's bugs here and there but it mostly works fine. The developer isn't very active (which is understandable), so it would be nice if someone, who has the time for it, would help out.

    Here's also the official page with Jellyfin clients: https://jellyfin.org/downloads/clients/allIt doesn't seem to include Delfin though.

  • Sorry, didn't know that. But they only own the trademark to the name? (Not saying that that isn't bad enough already)

  • No, Java is owned by Oracle, Javascript has nothing to do with it

  • That was the case in the past but it's not true anymore. China is just the best in a lot of sectors and also oftentimes the only one who can produce certain things. Here's a video where someone tried to make a product in the US only, it explains a lot of that: https://youtu.be/3ZTGwcHQfLY

  • VR on linux actually works just fine from my experience. I've never had a game not work. The big issue is just headset support. The HTC Vive and Valve Index are the only headsets with official drivers, since they were made by Valve. Standalone headsets, like the Quest for example, also work using ALVR. Anything else doesn't really work. There are open source drivers but they're not complete enough to be useable unless something majorly changed there since I last checked.

  • Can confirm that yt-dlp works perfectly for TikTok videos

  • Thank you for telling me about Podlet. I've been using podman-compose for all my containers but I've thought about converting them to systemd units. The only thing I'm unsure about is whether it'll still be easy to access the container files. Currently I have a containers folder with a folder for each service inside it. Inside that, there's the compose.yml and the folders with the container data. I map all container folders, with data that needs to be kept, to a folder that sits right next to the compose file. If it's just temporary data (like caches), I oftentimes map it to a volume because it doesn't matter if I lose it. Do you know if I can still do it like this (or in a similar way) if I use systemd units?

  • I meant to write OnlyOffice 😭But thanks for pointing it out, I fixed it

  • Those distros are fine, I haven't heard anything bad about them. The only distros I wouldn't recommend are Ububtu and Manjaro (I can explain why if you want).

    About Excel, it doesn't work on Linux unfortunately. But you have some options. You can try LibreOffice and OnlyOffice (you can install them on Windows to try them out before switching) and see if they're enough for your needs. There's also a web version of Excel which you can use in your browser but it doesn't have all the features. If you really need Excel, you can also try using a virtual machine with Windows and run it inside of that but dual booting might be easier for you at that point.

  • I don't really know what you mean by checking. I'm pretty sure you can import from there but I haven't used that yet anyway because not a single food I've looked up there has had enough data for it to be usable for me and a lot haven't been added at all. Might be because I'm in Germany tho.

    Edit: I've actually imported a product that did have all the information and it worked perfectly fine. You just share the link from OpenFoodFacts to Food You. Only monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats didn't import but I've already opened and issue for that and it'll be fixed in version 3.

  • Food You is the one I use. Looks like they're pretty similar tho, at least from the screenshots.

  • I use podman too and I set up hardware acceleration for Jellyfin. I'll update this with how I did it once I'm home.

    Edit: Here's my compose.yml (I use podman-compose):

     
        
    services:
      jellyfin:
        image: lscr.io/linuxserver/jellyfin:latest
        container_name: jellyfin
        dns:
          - 9.9.9.9
        environment:
          - PUID=1000
          - PGID=1000
          - TZ=Europe/Berlin
        volumes:
          - ./config:/config:Z
          - ~/drive/media:/media:z
        devices:
          - /dev/dri:/dev/dri
        ports:
          - 8096:8096
          - 7359:7359/udp
          - 1900:1900/udp
        restart: unless-stopped
    
      
  • The one I have uses only one of those little puck batteries (or whatever they're called)

  • I only buy ZigBee devices from Tuya, they do that too

  • This is actually really helpful. I have a cheap one from Tuya, that also has a display, but the battery is empty after like 2 weeks and I don't wanna keep constantly changing it, so it's always off. This sounds like a great replacement.

  • yt-dlp supports a ton of sites (not just youtube). It's a command line program but there's a lot of different GUI frontends, like Seal (Android) or Parabolic (Linux and Windows).

    I don't know if it supports the site you wanna use (someone else already said that 9anime was shut down, so the site you're using is likely a fake and you should use another one) but there's this list of supported sites.

  • Selfhosted @lemmy.world

    Selfhosted Piped instance loading infinitely

  • Selfhosted @lemmy.world

    Are selfhosted Piped instances still working?

  • Linux @lemmy.ml

    Extracting frames from a video with ffmpeg very slow if not using jpeg

  • Selfhosted @lemmy.world

    Any advantage to using something self-hosted, like Komga, in Mihon (formerly Tachiyomi)?
