You can’t just count Lemmy active users. I switched from Lemmy to Piefed for example. So we need to count Lemmy+Piefed.

Yup. install the Orion Browser. It has adblocking built in. Then install the Piefed Web application from Orion.

Or, if you wanted phone wide, configure adguard dns: https://adguard-dns.io/en/public-dns.html

Wait, you don’t use an adblocker?!?!?!?!?!

Thank you for the PSA good friend!

We should care, vibe coded projects are not maintainable.

We need to upvote this to oblivion for maximum visibility. This is disgusting.

I didn’t give them their own accounts but you can if you want to.

It does. My Immich installation is behind a reverse proxy, and I simply share the link to the albums with friends and family.

It’s console like pc like the Playstation for the average gamer that just want to connect and play.

I will not call it overpriced because the current PC market is crazy because of AI. Even Valve isn’t happy with the price.

Overpriced would mean that Valve would be making a significant profit. They will not.

With such high number of unknowns, I don’t think we can trust the stats.

And it doesn’t support different refresh rates. The refresh rates needs to be the minimum that the monitor supports.

Downside: breaking changes are fairly common AFAIK.

This is no longer the case after the version 2.0 release. Version 2.0 is the stable release: https://github.com/immich-app/immich/discussions/22546

Public-facing services need at least a minimum level of security protection. All of my services are protected by the reverse proxy Caddy, and Crowdsec protects my system and services from malicious bots. My Flirt 2’s firewall bans all malicious bots that Crowdsec discovers.

Interesting:

The company blamed the expense of running the platform as a reason behind the decision, **but a shift to a more AI-focused business seems to be the real culprit. **

That sucks. I refused so they gave me a Yubikey instead.

You do you. You’ve been advised.

So, basically, Microsoft products. I know you can access the web versions of these products, but I don’t recommend relying solely on them because the document formatting often doesn’t appear correctly in the web versions. I usually have to open them on the desktop version.

In that case, I recommend not going forward.

One concern I have is she uses her personal laptop for work.

I will never agree to use my personal laptop for work. When I finish work, I hide my work laptop under the sofa so that I don’t think about it. I need to physically separate work and my personal life.

If, for any reason, she cannot get a work laptop, I would not recommend installing a Linux distro because her livelihood depends on it.

The ISO is big because it contains programs that you can install only if you choose to during the installation process. You can opt for a minimal installation.
