That’s for sure. It’s crazy how stale the options have become. After Covid, they all cut menu options and choices to as minimum as possible, and anything new that they add is almost always just something that already exists but put together differently. I’m guessing it costs too much money to actually create something new, have it tested, and figure out logistics to purchase these new items for it to be worth the gamble of being a success or a complete failure.

I have been watching him for years. Love the reviews. I have to say lately he seems very angry. The titles reflect how disappointed he is before ever getting to the food. It’s great to have a negative review, but I really don’t like the titles reflecting that. I hope it’s just because fast food has sucked but lately somehow gotten even worse, and not just him following youtube trends to gain more clicks.
I feel the same. For me, anything over 10 minutes and I speed it up to 1.5 speed. I barely notice and saved roughly 20 min off of it. This is also continued so it seems like there will be like 3 or more videos covering various subjects.
My kid has come across his videos several times, the algorithm absolutely pushes his stuff to kids. I haven’t known about him for very long, but he does create some interesting videos. Never watched any that were giveaways or stuff but I have seen some of the contest and destination ones. They were obviously edited videos, but it’s a shame to also hear the games and people used are all setup as well. Guess we’re about to add another horrible YT personality to the canceled list?
10·2 months agoI just learned about this from John Oliver. The episode came out about a month ago. Doesn’t sound like a great idea to go after them, of course…
Servers would probably be way easier than workstations if you ask me. If they were virtual, just bring up the remote console and you can do it all remotely. Even if they were physical I would hope they have an IP KVM attached to each server so they can also remotely access them as well. 450 sucks but at least they theoretically could have done every one of them without going anywhere.
There are also options to do workstations as well, but almost nobody ever uses those services so those probably need to be touched one by one.
3·2 months agoI used to use Subsonic, but it’s become too outdated for me sadly. I switched to a fork Navidrome which updates a few times a year and enjoy the improvements it’s been providing. I use it with the mobile app Symfonium and love that they are both improving the API to add additional features and options over what Subsonic offered. I run it on my Synology in Docker so you should have no issues either.
Everything I do is manual, I don’t really have duplicates unless I get singles then get the album once it releases. Even then, unless the single comes with extra bonus tracks (seems to be a lost past time, never see this anymore) I will delete the singles after.
Here is the forum post I originally found years ago to setup music picard to tag multiple genres, which is the only setup that I have that took extra effort and not just use out of the box defaults.
I have a library that’s been growing for about 20 years now. I don’t think I got too serious until around 2009, which is when I discovered music servers to host my library and quickly realized how bad its structure was. It took years of me getting folders done correctly followed by then working on tags. Automation scared me to much since the results were not always 100%. Once it was done I have kept a system to keep it that way the best I can.
So for me once I get new content I use the app tagscanner to edit everything to the way I like, then I drop them into music Picard were I found a tutorial online a few years ago to set it up to just edit music genres. I found the one thing I never got right was music genres so finding this tool was incredible. Took months to run large sections of the library though. Now I got every track labeled with up to 5 genre tags. Once that is done I change folder names to what I want, drop them into my music directory folder which is root > artist > album (don’t care about year since it’s tagged). Scan music into my musicbee app and if any are missing covers I right click and tell it to find them. Then do a scan with navidrome to add it all there.
It’s only a little over a year old by now and even the first release was better than most of the stuff out there, but what it is today makes it better than anything I have ever used before on my phone and that includes premium apps like Spotify. At this point, I can’t even think of stuff I would need anymore, but I can’t wait to see what the next year brings.
Another note, the developer also created yatse, which I used over a decade ago as my remote control for kodi. Also equally as awesome as this is. He is very good at what he does, haha.
242·5 months agoI agree, I only came here in July after they finally followed through with pulling the plug on 3rd party apps. This place has grown a lot in 1 year. Still needs more communities for the smaller hobbies, plus less memes and political content, and it would be perfect. 99% of everyone I talk with here is super nice and helpful as well.
I currently use Navidrome as well, but I really don’t use smart playlists like that. For me, I use Symfonium on Android, which offers a ton of options and is incredible. In all my years of using a personal server to host music, this app has been the best by a lot. As for desktop apps, I don’t use them much, but when I do, I use Musicbee, which also offers unlimited customization if you’re willing to put time into it. It used to have a subsonic plug-in, but I have no idea if it’s still active. I just use the local file location and treat it as its own entity. If the subsonic plug-in still works, it may allow you to do what you want since everything seems possible in Musicbee from my experience.
4·8 months agoNot referring to the portal, I still have no idea why it exists. This is a recent leak of a new handheld.

Yes, it’s just a leak, but I hope it’s true.

I even saw an article yesterday indicating Sony is developing something as well. 2 years away, but still, I never thought they were going to try again after the psp and Vita failure (failure is subjective, I still love my psp). I fully believe the success of the steam deck has revived there interest in it as well.
Only specialty places, and that makes me sad… Mars, Maltesers, and Flake bars are my favorite things I never get to have due to availability. In the end I think it’s a good thing I can only have these like once a year if I am lucky.
Thank you, I will try this out. I did subscribe to a lot of stuff and kind of wondered what the point was since I didn’t see much of it. Guess this is why. Still getting used to the little differences from reddit.
Maybe I am doing it wrong but for me I see everything and only blocking a community let’s me no longer see it. I started doing that but only to communities I know I will never like the content. Stuff like news is a mixed bag.
I use a combo of Roku and Firesticks through the house. Since I have a raspberry pi with pihole on it all the ads and telemetry is blocked, or at least majority of it is.
