I’m not sure if this is good or bad.

Holy crap. I don’t, but after seeing that I think I’ll need to start

I have run both Plex and Jellyfin and I much prefer Jellyfin. I got sick of Plex content being interjected into my menus and feed. Plex also had issues seeing my server which was inconvenient. I now run Jellyfin with Infuse as my client. Love it so far.

Dumb question I know, but do I leave this running on my instance or on my own computer?

Just an idea. You could try hosting and using these apps on a VPS from a cloud provider to find out what your needs are.

Setting up Lemmy is pretty straightforward, especially if you use the recommended ansible method. You could do a brief self-host and if it works for you keep it around.

It’s extremely easy. Highly recommend it.

I have a similar setup as you and I got this. It has worked for several years without problem:

APC UPS BX1500M Backup Battery Power Supply

Create a read only lemmy instance populated with the data from the Reddit data dump. Make sure Google indexes it. Comply with DMCA requests made by users who want their content removed.

I check at least once a day. HN is great for tech news. In fact, it might not be a bad idea to stream HN topics into posts in a Lemmy community to discuss here.

The comments at HN are generally high quality but seem heavily moderated.

I’ve wondered the same. I know I’m not the only one with the 1.8 TB Reddit data dump. It would be cool to import all that into a Lemmy instance.

I realized at one point that the amount of data that is truly irreplaceable to me amounts to only - 500GB. So for this important data I back up to my NAS, then from there backup to Backblaze. I also create M-Discs. Two sets, one for home and one I keep at a fiends’ place. Then because “why not” and I already had them sitting around I also backup to two sd cards and keep them on site and off site.

I also backup my other data like tv/movies/music/etc but the sheer volume of data gives me one option, that being a couple usb hard drives I back up to from my NAS.

Yes but give it a few years for the price to come down, and for kinks in the technology to be worked out. The price would need to come down significantly though. They can’t compete with Meta at the price point they are at.

For me it was Slashdot->Hacker News, And then in parallel Reddit->Lemmy

Brave. It’s interesting getting completely different results than from any of the big players. And the results from Brave are often better.

Thanks so much! I’ll be trying this tomorrow
