I waddled onto the beach and stole found a computer to use.

They’re also involved in Fediverse development, they made Mobilizon as an event management platform

Sounds similar to the case with Jellyfin & Findroid (and likely Swiftfin)
The official Jellyfin app has full functionality, but it feels clunky. Especially for casual users.
The native third party app is smooth, intuitive, and visually nice, but is missing a few features (ex. Admin dashboard).
What I’ve seen recommended was:
Canada focused website, but this was on the front page

The black Friday page in particular

I’m not aware of any other privacy issues past that, but I’d worry about getting more spam by engaging with them
The screenshot:
Wow you weren’t kidding, it’s very isolated. It would be cool to see it in person but that’s very far from everything.
I thought this was funny
Excellent access to freeways and major arteries, with a vast amount of parking nearby.
There is also OnlyOffice, which has been more palatable for the people I shared it with (mostly students that were graduating and losing access to free MS Word)
Also, those devices are always capturing data. So if/when they ever connect, that data will get uploaded.
This seems to be the key bit of the comment.
Outside of the examples listed, a more reasonable possibility is if someone else in your home (ex. A family member) connects it to the network. Also even if it doesn’t automatically connect to a public network, well placed popups can also lead to mistakes.
Very cool, and thank you for taking the time to make such a detailed post!
If you are using any Synology products with your setup, you should go ahead and apply the recommended updates
There was the attack on the Internet archive recently, are there any good options out there to help mirror some of the data or otherwise provide redundancy?
One option that I’ve heard of in the past
ArchiveBox is a powerful, self-hosted internet archiving solution to collect, save, and view websites offline.
Is this related to the new laws in Europe? I remember seeing something about Facebook introducing a paid tier
Taking a look at the current sidebar, it might be nice to reorganize the stats section completely
What I’m thinking is:
By default it will only show some stats, where users can select what stats they want displayed in the settings. This way I can hide the stuff I don’t care about, instead of having to look through the already busy list.
**Statistics:** [✏️edit]
- Monthly Active Users: 4,000
- Total Subscribers: 30,000
[ v see all v ]
Then expanding the box will give the full list of stats:
[ ^ collapse ^ ]
**Statistics:**
Active Users:
- By day: 800
- By week: 1,200
- By month: 4,000
- By year: 24,100
Subscribers:
- Total: 30,000
- Local: 12,000
Comments:
- Total: 81,000
- Today: 510
- This week: 1,315
[... etc]
It opens up the possibility of including more items in that list. We could also replace the expand
option with a link to a full statistics dashboard page.
Alternatively, I think both metrics are helpful in different ways
- Quality over Quantity: MAU counts lurkers equally with active participants. PCM focuses on actual engagement.
- True Reflection of Activity: A community with 1000 MAU but only 10 posts/comments is less vibrant than one with 100 MAU and 500 posts/comments.
I’d say votes are also an important part of engagement. It helps differentiate between good and bad content. I’m more likely to join a community with a few good posts a day (or even a week) than a bot community with many posts a day. Going by how the subscribers counts change over time, I’d say this is a common experience.
- Spam Resistance: Creating multiple accounts to inflate MAU is easy. Generating meaningful posts and comments is harder.
While any abuse is bad, spam posts and comments are a bigger concern right now. AI generated spam / link spam is obnoxious and we deal with it often (as admins/mods). While someone could make lots of accounts to inflate MAU, it only really affects the community ranking against other communities and not day to day usage. Lemmy is already considering removing the trending section, and admins usually step in if a bunch of similar accounts are created at once.
- Easier to Track: No need for complex user tracking. Just count posts and comments.
I’m not sure I understand this point. Are the vote/comment/post calculations very resource intensive?
All that being said
Maybe Fossify Gallery?
I see this issue requesting Ultra HDR instead of regular HDR
https://github.com/FossifyOrg/Gallery/issues/166
So it might have regular HDR?
See if you can find guides for “Wi-Fi card replacement” for the model that you are looking into. For guides, try https://www.ifixit.com/
If it is a simple matter of unplugging a card (like the image above), it should be easy enough to undo if something goes wrong. Then instead of replacing the Wi-Fi card, just leave it out.
Finding the setting:
None that I’m currently aware of
There is random.org which could work in the meantime
