Is anyone else having trouble giving up Reddit due to content?
  • I just pay for a quality newspaper now. I went to reddit a while back but it's just not doing it for me anymore. And not only because the experience has degraded... The content is just not that interesting? There's so much to do with your time.

  • Looking for a kanban-ish thing for around the house / chores

    I want to be able to keep track of certain things I (or more accurately, we as a family) need to do. E.g. paint the shed, call the people to clean the roof, pack bags for vacation, etc. It will just be shared between me and my partner. My partner is not super technical but is relatively open-minded to me wanting to do things differently (kicking out netflix in favour of plex, using mealie for recipes, etc..).

    We previously used Nextcloud Deck but since switching to Immich I just want to rid of nextcloud entirely. The deck app is still there but doesn't sync anymore (imagine the embarrassment finding out your partner is still trying to use the thing you persuaded her into using but forgot that it broke) I need to find something else.

    • It needs to be relatively simple (or able to hideaway complexities)
    • Single board is fine, multiple would be nice
    • We just do a todo/doing/done flow.
    • We really like the 'board' way of working, dragging and dropping a task from doing to done etc
    • Tasks need due dates, descriptions, attachments, possibly comments
    • native android app, I'm not sure if the state of PWA's is already so far that it would not dink on the spouse approval factor. I remember mealie logging us out so often.

    What i've tried / read:

    • kanboard: this seems like the best candidate, but lacks a proper android app. This is a major dealbreaker. There was an android app called khanos but that doesn;t work anymore. I tried WiserBoard but that just seems like an Indian company taking Khanos and removing all attribution - it keeps asking for a shit ton of permissions so I got sketched out and deleted it.

    • focalboard: looks nice, maybe a bit complex.. No android app.

    I had my hopes set on kanboard but ehhhhhh

    ----------------------------------------

    What are others using for this purpose?

    [RANT] I pay $70/mo for this privilege
  • That's rough... No idea how I'd cope with that. I don't think I've ever had a datacap on any residential connection here in the Netherlands. Currently got 1gbps fiber up and down for 50 euros I think.

    TV however is still a huge scam. I just want to watch football but have to have a billion other channels too I think. (Ima see if I can change this now lol)

  • How to pirate movies casually?
  • Genuinely? Find a friend with a plex server. There's plenty of us out there with huge libraries and the automations setup but they're barely utilised. Got any tech-savvy friends or peeps on Lemmy near you?

  • Is anyone using NixOS as their daily driver?

    I'm currently running Arch and it's great, but I'm noticing I'm not staying on the ball in regards to updates. I've been reading a bit about Nix and NixOS and thinking of trying it as my daily driver. I've got a Lenovo x1 xtreme laptop, I don't do much gaming (except OSRS), use firefox, jetbrains stuff, bitwarden, remmina, obsidian, and docker.

    Is anyone running NixOS as their daily? How are you liking it and are there any pitfalls / stuff you wish you knew before?

    I'm done with NextCloud

    Just had NextCloud denying my credentials (not for the first time). I know they weren't wrong because I'm using a password manager. Logs didn't say much. Was about to reinstall (again, not the first time nextcloud went bonkers on me) before I tried a docker compose down && docker compose up. Lo and behold after a restart the credentials worked again.

    This stuff is just way too flaky for something so important.

    Is OwnCloud good again? My main usecase is saving photos but I don't want them locked away in a database so SeaFile is out.

    Edit: I'm going to take the time to reply to you all, bit busy with work and family suddenly. But a little update - I've quickly setup Immich and fired up the CLI to import my library. AFAIK the files are still stored on disk somewhere but metadata is in a database. I didn't realize this before, knowing that I think my mind is made up and Immich is the best solution. Thanks everyone!

    Why do some car exhausts drip fluid?

    And what is it? Always assumed it was just water but now I'm pretty sure it's not. Also do all cars do this?

    How are you keeping up with new selfhosted apps?

    I've calmed down a bit but still would like to know if there are any new 'cool' apps to selfhost. I know of the awesome-selfhosted github repo. Any other great sources, and could we incorporate something like that into our selfhosted community here? Maybe a bot that checks if any new ones been added?

    People who have their phone on vibrate and have video doorbells, how many rings do you miss?

    Wish I could just get sound for the ring doorbell instead of everything. Utility seems lost on me.

    Bluetooth autoconnecting to car when earbuds are already connected

    Title. Pisses me off mildly. I've got my earbud in for a reason (quick drive) and Bluetooth decides to connect to the car when it starts. The cars' head unit takes forever to start and have to manually switch over to Bluetooth mode (while the audio is already playing) and the volume is way down.

    And when you get out of the car it doesn't automatically connect back to the earbuds.

    Barmhartige burgers in Den Haag zouden beboet moeten worden voor gift aan dakloze, vindt CDA

    De CDA-fractievoorzitter in Den Haag, Kavish Partiman, heeft voorgesteld om burgers die geld geven aan daklozen te beboeten, met als doel het bedelen tegen te gaan en de aantrekkelijkheid van de stad te verbeteren. Hoewel het voorstel waarschijnlijk geen kans van slagen heeft, leidde het tot een discussie in de raad over de exacte christelijke waarden. Partiman benadrukte dat structurele hulp aan daklozen, zoals huisvesting en toegang tot gezondheidszorg, nodig is in plaats van slechts geld geven voor mogelijke verslavingen. Momenteel kunnen bedelaars in Den Haag al een boete krijgen, maar Partiman wil de regelgeving omkeren en juist burgers beboeten die geld geven. De discussie over daklozen is verder aangescherpt vanwege de overlast veroorzaakt door Oost-Europese dakloze migranten, met meldingen van problemen op het Centraal Station. Het CDA stelt dat oppervlakkige gebaren van barmhartigheid niet voldoende zijn en dat meer structurele hulp nodig is om daklozen te helpen.

    Is there a trick to properly using audiobookbay?

    It's like their search function is worse than reddit. Is it on purpose and is there like a trick to make it function right? Are there better alternatives, has anyone built an api for them? They do seem to have a lot and quality links - search is just terrible

    Should unsubscribe not remove the posts from my instance?

    Or am I just being impatient? Unsubbed from a community that was pretty dead but kept showing up, but still seeing the posts.
