Dislike: there is still no way to group communities into sub feeds, apart from subs, local, all. (and the work around some do of having multiple accounts seems silly to me)

I'm going to mention Ansible as I haven't seen it mentioned, and it can be used to locally manage a reproducible build.

It has already been mentioned, but as a minimum to replicate your system you need two things:

• Transfer/copy your entire /home directory as there is where the majority of the configuration files of your system pertaining the software you use (there could be configs you could need on /etc and on /usr/local or other dir), that is why it is recommended to partition your disk on installation of your distro, so the /home directory is already separated, as if you reinstall in the same machine you don't lose any configuration in addition to your personal documents/pictures/etc
• Have a way to automatically install a list of programs/apps/drivers/libraries, and that is what something like a bash script, Ansible, nixOs, etc. could help you with.

The truth is that using any of the tools in the second point requires learning a bunch, so if your skill level is still not there, there is some work to do to get there.

Can confirm that is happening to me too, using Firefox v130 on Linux, the weird thing is I have another machine that was logged in since a few months back that is still logged in and does not have this issue

You can do a local recording with zoom, you can have a meeting by yourself, share screen, and then position the camera where you want it, and record. when you finish the recording and the meeting, the file will be processed and saved on a local folder without doing anything else.

I consider that the easiest method.

That's a very specific use case that would need you to provide more information, like what app are you using and what trackers are being reported, and that I particularly don't know if I can help you with.

Maybe if you post said information, someone else can help you.

Edit to add: it is very likely the tracking is being done by the app itself, or when accessing an external link, or embedded content from the app, the app is not protecting you from other trackers, as lemmy.world itself is not tracking you

There are ways to block most data collection, as I said an example of this is using a browser with built in blockers for tracking and/or extensions.

The other part is on the user hands, proprietary services and apps are always going to track something even if minimal, like I said using Chrome or Google search or visiting reddit or opening an embedded image preview from imgur are totally on the user, and could be avoided.

Not an expert in this and someone can correct me or expand...

In the case of imgur or reddit, with embedded content like image previews or when following a link the destination site can know where you came from. Here a link that explains it better than I could.

In the case of Google, if you use chrome or search lemmy.world through Google and then click it from the search results, google knows

And if you don't have any tracking protection via browser or extensions, there can be tracking using cookies for example.

Cloudflare is probably a false flag detected by this site

And in my particular case following your link it told me "No tracking detected on this site at present." As seen in this image

Loneliness

Old laptop, Debian with docker running nextcloud, navidrome, jellyfin, gitea, librespeed, wireguard, dnsmasq, and nginx as a reverse proxy.

adding Quillpad, as another alternative

QR is just image to text, most QR reading apps I have used, show you the QR content before going to the website (or let you disable opening the link directly) so you should be able to check the URL or content and see if the link is legit or not.

But let's be honest most people don't know or don't even bother and that's the real problem.

I recommend DuckDNS as well, you can run it both sides and set up a daemon to update the domain when there is an IP change automatically.

And with Wireguard you can set up a tunnel between both locations so you can share anything you need.

I'm using Debian, with Docker and running Jellyfin, Nextcloud, Navidrome and Wireguard on Containers on my old laptop. So that would be my suggestion.

You could install CasaOS and/or Portainer, on top of Debian if you want an easier way to manage your server and containers.

If you are not behind a CGNAT, it should be as easy as opening the necessary ports.

I have a reverse proxy running in ports 80, 443 and can safely access Jellyfin on a subdomain without issues from outside my LAN.

Markdown (there are plenty of editors to chose from) + Pandoc (to generate the output in multiple formats), would be my recommendation.

Did you know https://m.lemmy.world?, voyager can be used on desktop.

I use my old laptop as a server, and so far no issues with leaving it on 24/7

Always funny to hear all those second place jokes with the brother.

I thought this was going to be about sweets and pastries

Been doing the same, just leaving my password-store offline, for me this is enough.
