  • Very pretty Kaityy! I hope you have a lovely day.

  • I forgot to check that, stupid of me.

  • I actually should be able to do it. The files are hosted on a drive I have at home mounted on a raspberry pi, the drive is then mounted on the vps through sshfs, so while it would take a while I think the pi might do it. Otherwise I'll just do it on my desktop, the drive is mounted through sshfs here too.

  • It's a vps so maybe I am indeed lacking hardware.

  • Kavita is the one I was looking at as well. I hear plex is closed source and I prefer using open.

  • Have you tried installing Jellyfin as a docker container? The official image as well as the linuxserver.io’s image?

    I tried docker, yes. I have to check if I used linuxserver.io image but I did use the official one for sure.

    Plex and Emby are some alternatives, but these are closed-source solutions.

    Aw heck, I'd prefer foss

    what are good alternatives to jellyfin?

    Would a raspberry pi zero be powerful enough to host a matrix server with some bridges?

  • First time I read about it, what's great about it? I currently use a combo of alacritty and tmux and aside for a thing or two I could configure better I love it.

  • Would be better with a fediverse logo.

  • I'll offer the other side of the coin just to give more food for thoughts, but I will also add that unlike OP I believe a phone call or a polite text would be enough: Should someone ghost in the name of safety, when a dangerous person would still look for you in person anyway or should they consider the feelings of someone they don't like just because they don't know they are a decent human being?

    I understand where you're coming from, but a phone call or a message will keep you safe from a beating or being yelled at, homeboy starts yelling? Block the number. If you ghost someone they might still get really angry and look for you in person, maybe I'm ignorant and stupid but I don't see a lot of extra safety in ghosting unless we assume that to tell someone you're not interested you have to do it in person.

    If you ghost someone there is a chance you avoid their anger, a chance. But there's also 100% certainty that you're going to hurt someone's feelings. Not to mention I do believe that's not the only cause, there's definitely people that ghost because they just don't care about the other person.

  • Thanks, ruby was another language I saw in the thread popping a few times, the first one being python. I I was told a few things python can be good for, can you give me a few examples of good uses for ruby just to have a vague idea?

  • My main focus is to learn a programming language, I tend to work better when I know I can do something fun and making games seemed like as good a goal as any other since I do play games a lot. I feel like the satisfaction of being able to see my sprites move would be an incentive, but it's definitely not my main end goal, just a nice side effect.

  • Thank you for your post, before this thread I thought that all the C named languages (c, c++ and c#) were at least similar but it looks like it's not the case.

  • I knew they are different but I also assumed they're at least similar, is that a wrong assumption? Will learn one make little difference if I learn another after?

  • That's interesting how for some people the same languages can be the opposite. Maybe I'll start with one and if it goes poorly I'll try the opposite side.

  • Thank you very much for the post and the good luck :) Python does seem to be the most recommended language in the thread so it's likely I'll go for that, I'll take a loot.

  • I heard about pygame, I was hopeful but oh well. I also heard about godot but I didn't know if it was similar to something else.

  • Thank you, it's pretty encouraging to consider that skills transfer relatively easy if I do decide to move onto something else, it's not something I considered.

  • I would also like to emphasize the existence of a solid, free IDE like Visual Studio Community Edition or VS Code, because it can make a lot of things easier - especially when you’re just starting out.

    Could you explain this part a bit more? I'm not sure I understand.

  • I heard that about learning a second one from other people too, and I think I heard this applies to languages in general, not just programming, but "people languages" too if that makes sense. Thank you for the suggestion mate, I'll definitely consider the book.

    Would a raspberry pi zero manage to host a Lemmy instance?
