Love it

I’m not sure if the hard requirement of using openai is good for an open source projects. It requires a somewhat hidden closed source source for the main functionality.

GL! One of my favorite open source projects!

Calibre can also be a server. https://manual.calibre-ebook.com/server. I use it all the time with my library.

I use the Voice app on Fdriod but it doesnt do syncing that I know about. I fully recommend instead of using Audible.

If you dont own the files, then you dont really own the media.

For updates yeah. I used to run it with docker and just about every other major update would break it. Then I went to bare metal…still broke. Now I have it on yunohost and its…better. Its only broken once last year. But heavy backups is how I deal with it.

Yep. I like next cloud much better.

If you want an easy way to host, yunohost can be a good place to start.

Ive used this in the past to host an email server. Eventually, my ISP actually stopped allowing people to use mail ports, so I had to discontinue. But it worked very well when I used it many years ago.

That would be cool. Closest I have is just a pinned link via Firefox.

I’ve had more luck finally throwing docker on it and letting it sit on an excising yunohost.

Sure! Truthfully, unless it’s dead simple I’m going to let others host.

I tried getting it setup but it didn’t want to work on my system. The docker container didn’t work with some errors and the docs seem like they need a bit of work. I love piefed, but if it takes more than a weekend to setup then I personally don’t have enough time.

Great software though.

I’m starting to see mastodon users on my tiny pixelfed server. It’s such a good feeling.

On the sad side, my Lemmy update went south and I had to remove it off my setup. Still looking for a good replacement for max two users. Something dirt simple like GoToSocial turned out to be.

It doesn’t. There is no truely unique ID in the US.

Source: myself. Worked on health insurance and it was hell.

Imagine getting a job like this and now half the nation knows your name…thats terrifying. being an intern may mean you have no idea of the true scope of what they are asking you to do.

I dont :) Mostly.

Honestly I have an auto backup system. And then set it up to auto update periodically. Then use Debian Server as it almost never breaks as a server distro.

Nice!!

I have a similar setup with around 5 federated services (Lemmy/bookwyrm/mastodon(GoToSocial)/pixelfed/Peertube/etc… and it works well. The slowest component is the internet connection by far. Yunohost makes it easy but a couple of the more niche services are on docker. All self hosted on an old PC and a pi.

Just a note, these are all less than 5 users and my setup is not designed for anything more than the family. Also of all the services, Mastodon base install was by far the most resource intensive of all of them. It’s definitely made for more than 100+ users and quite quickly used up all my hard drive. Their caching system needs some work if I’m honest. After self hosting for about half a year, I went with GoToSocial, which saved me 100s of gigabytes. It’s no faster or slower but the same clients work with it. It’s basically designed for less than 10 users which is nice. No issues after about a year.

Not too much. I don’t have specific stats but there’s not much video being shared. We are not at the level where it takes too much bandwidth.
