  • i ended up choosing GitHub primarily for the automated binary builds and releases through GitHub Actions. the Pro tier for students gives me generous build minutes, and the Trippy maintainers helped me get the release process set up properly

    I’m not into programming so I wasn’t aware of this kind of argument and have no idea of all those Pipeline, release, automated binary process… etc ! I’m probably biased by my open source & self-hosted crusade but as long as you are aware of this stuff that’s allready a good point :))) (why wouldn’t you, you’re on lemmy :D) !


  • Congrats and thank you for sharing your project with the community ❤️!

    Just a personal opinion, I think all new projects should be hosted on alternatives git hosting sites (something like codeberg :p). Specially project which have alot of already very well implemented and popular alternatives.

    Yes, this will reduce visibility and probably reduce interaction. But if you’re on Lemmy you’re probably already aware of this… But it will also provide the switch to a more privacy respecting and competition to more agressive invading monopoly companies.

    Another positive thing I can think of is that if there is a big GitHub exodus and popular alternative who need to switch their database/user base to an alternative hoster will lose a bit of momentum and users may come across your project :).

    Good luck and keep it up 🙏💪


  • Yeah… Can you tell me where to change this? This article is not very clear, who, where or what… I’m running headless Debian 12 and can’t even find any variable related to org.freedesktop.udisks2.modify-device or any polkit rule in /etc/polkit-1/rules.d/.... and not even a PolicyKit package installed on my system (polkit?)…

    The only thing that comes close is /usr/share/polkit-1/...


    Edit:

    I guess this is a wrong assumption:

    udisks ships by default on almost all Linux distributions
    

    udisks2 is not even installed by default on my debian 12 system.





  • N0x0n@lemmy.mltoLinux@programming.devShould we be wary of Red Hat?

    Isn’t RedHat who pushed systemd? Most init enthusiasts hate systemd ! Dunno if related tho. I’m just recently into linux so I never had the chance to give the init system a try !

    However, I’m an opensource and free from corporate shit software lover. Try to avoid everything related to corpo (Redhat, Ubuntu…). That’s exaclty the reason why I’m reluctant to give Fedora a try, even though it seems kinda a good distro !

    Debian as server distro EndeavourOS as daily drive








  • I would still encode and compress the files without noticeable visual loss from a reasonable distance.

    AV1-opus combo is generally a good choice and is a viable open codec alternative to x265! Plus you save GB of space for even nore movies and share your encodes on a private tracker to keep up your ratio !!

    It’s a win/win situation except if you’re a hardcore bluray/4k hoarder and have the money and mean to keep everything in the native quality. More power to you !!




  • I hate what I’m reading here… But I have already thought about the possible enshitification of docker and docker-compose…

    It really sucks to always have to relearn everything from the beginning… Now that I feel comfortable I have to relearn a new way to keep my homelab up and running.

    Kinda understand how Plex people feel when someone tells them to switch over to jellyfin…Can’t wait to see Jellyfin or Arr stack going a similar route 😮‍💨😮‍💨!

    Edit: Similar feeling goes toward Traefik… 😕🫤
