It’s generally fine, the vast majority of applications are fine with it, it’s mainly the legacy shit that falls over.
You can also enable it on a per directory basis, and I’ve yet to encounter a Dev tool that has issues with it. Same for the path limit, you can have long paths enabled too.
You can enable case sensitivity in windows. It’s only disabled by default.
Because the time to learn a new operating system is more than I have to spare. I’m approaching middle aged, windows is familiar and I just want to kick back and enjoy my games.
Linux hasn’t reached drop-in replacement on the desktop yet. The steam deck is fantastic and I have no problems running it stock, but desktop Linux? Nah. Why would I dual boot when I can stick to one OS that does what I want and need.
(Side note: I run Linux on my server and am quite happy with it).
Open collective can let you specify where you want that donated money to go, so if the jellyfin admins wanted to they could have set OC up in such a way that donations could go to specific areas - not just clients, but specific feature development even.
If you’re concerned that your donation to the project wouldn’t go to something you value or your wanted to ensure a client you cared about had support, that would have been a better way to manage it.
I really think jellyfin is making a mistake by not centralising development costs for all the various clients and such out there, especially for those that require some developer account or certification to get on a storefront.
It’s how agile development is meant to work. The faster you get feedback on a feature, the faster you can improve on it while it’s still green in your head (and the faster you can drop it and put your efforts elsewhere if it turns out to be a dud).
A fully written feature sat there doing nothing is offering you no value.
It’s incredibly difficult to read the captions on this meme, there’s not enough contrast with the white text on the light backgrounds.
Another recommendation for tdarr, set it up in January and let it transcode away, going to h265 for all my media - saved me over 40TB of space so far and I haven’t noticed a massive drop In quality or had any playback issues.
There’s no stigma with the terminal, the terminal isn’t bad, I love the terminal.
However, it’s not grandma friendly. It never will be. You need to think less about your preferences and more about a truly novice user. Most people don’t want to tinker with their machines, they just want it to work.
It’s not exactly a fair comparison, the tweaks in the bottom panel aren’t necessary for most users to do, yet a new user to Linux will need to get over a learning curve to do fairly basic tasks.
My litmus test for when Linux will be “ready” is can you do everything you need to do without using the terminal. So far I’ve yet to see a distribution that has achieved this.
The closest thing I’ve seen is SteamOS.
The barrier to entry for IRC is very high for non technical users. It’s also archaic, has little to no customisation and can be difficult to moderate at high volumes.
I’m not defending discord here, but the IRC comparisons are silly.
Yeah honestly either solution is a solid one
The guy above you gives great advice. Set up SWAG, then the only ports you’re exposing are 443.
Once you have that set up, look at adding something like authelia. This will give you 2FA on top of those apps meaning even if someone guesses the password and the URL to access them, they still won’t be able to.
The rights to search sure are, but it’s more like Google happens to be the one paying it right now. It could be Microsoft or Yahoo or anyone.
Mozilla definitely needs to diversity better here, but the implication that they’re “funded by google” is completely misleading.
I dont know much about the primary developers of Lemmy,
With respect, maybe you shouldn’t be commenting on what’s going on behind the scenes. They are good developers but they’re not good leaders or shepherds of such a big project. They need to hand over stewardship to someone that can be trusted.
Google pays them to be the default search engine, they’re not funded by Google.
We desperately need a company like Mozilla to take the reigns of something like Lemmy. The original developers are far too biased and short sighted to see the bigger picture, it needs to be an independent group that promotes more open source development.
Sabnzbd is probably the best choice of download client, fyi.
I thought this was dumb as fuck, but I think I understand what Microsoft is trying to do here.
What might not be obvious is that this “Windows” app is for iOS, Android and Linux - yes, it’s a replacement for remote desktop but it’s specifically a remote desktop app to connect to Windows machines.
So while I still this this rebranding is entirely unnecessary, I can see that they are trying to clearly distinguish “I’m not on windows and I need to do something on windows so I’ll use the windows app for that” .
It also means less confusion when “remote desktop” doesn’t let you connect to your Mac or whatever.
