    The only thing I would change is your backup drive. Linux can write to NTFS without issues. You’d be better off with 2 TB instead of 2x1TB.

    I would get rid of all the HDDs for games as they are too slow. Verifying files under steam or other clients is so slow compared to SSDs. (If you can afford it of course, otherwise it’s fine)

    There isn’t anything else wrong per-se. Except for still having windows installed 🤣. Proton (wine) via steam or lutris, solves 99% of all issues with running games on linux. (except for Anti-Cheat games like valorant).

    That was one of my gripes with Plex as I watch a lot of international content. Or just can’t hear over the sound of my kids 🤣

    Moved to jellyfin backend, with Kodi frontends + official jellyfin addon, all via network shares.

    So the Kodi frontends(TVs) directly read the files over NFS/SMB and I don’t have to worry about encoding or have to worry about subtitles. Honestly it’s the best player I’ve found (imho of course)

    And any other device gets the encoded stream from jellyfin (mobiles/non local devices).



  • Also, no. Pict-rs the service behind all the Lemmy image hosts, has a config of max-images=1 set by default

    Lemmy also does not use the background mode it uses the active mode for uploading images to pictrs for processing.

    This means that your images need to completely upload, process, and return back the url within 15/30s otherwise it fails and you get that random red box JSON error line 1.

    If you scaled that out to multiple images (let’s say 5), you would run into the risk of timeouts happening.
    On-top of that Lemmy doesn’t have that capability (yet?).

    People usually upload 1 main image, then in the body of the post you can upload more images in there. Add them with the picture icon.


  • If you defederate from porn because of legal reasons you might as well be a private instance. Porn is allowed in every country bar a few on earth, and users even have the ability to turn off all NSFW content via their profile. Adult content is the easiest to solve for.

    But that is just porn and I understand your point. At the end of the day, any instance is allowed to connect with whomever they want. Regardless of reasoning.

    We had a few communities on Reddthat that were blocked on an instance level by hacking the database. After it subscribes between two instances you remove the db connection and it tricks Lemmy and doesn’t re-subscribe.

    Within a month, third party applications will have multi account auto creation features with syncing of community subscriptions or abilities to connect directly into the communities that are siloed.
