I fear we're going the idiocracy route. Lower and lower intelligence of the population in general.

The removal of the custom thumbnail is refreshing. No more wired reactions with an arrow pointing at something.

I'm going to give this a try. The sponsorblock people have great ideas!

I'm realizing that a few weeks ago I wanted a lot of people to flock to Lemmy and away from Reddit. At this point I just don't think about Reddit anymore and find myself hoping Lemmy doesn't get too popular because of everything that comes with that (trolls, meme posters, bots)

There's currently a bug with "hot" and "active" where old posts remain at the top. I don't remember the details but it's getting fixed in v.0.18 (which is already in release candidate 4).

There are two solutions until the fix is released:

  • get your server admin to reboot the server everyone in a while. This seems to temporarily refresh the content.
  • use "new" or "top day". That's what I've been doing.

If I'm not mistaken, you can download your logs directly from the dashboard under manage > troubleshooting.

Is it giving you any kind of on-screen message? What about the logs? Is this Direct Play or Transcoding?

I know some players don't handle HDR very well, but that's usually related to bad tonemapping.

Also a Plex lifetime user. I tried jellyfin not too long ago to see what the fuss was all about. I had heard that they handled her tonemapping better.

The interface is different but more or less just as good as Plex. It's definitely more for the person that likes to dive in the details of the config of their server. For example, you need to setup your own domain for external users to connect to. It's not done automatically like on Plex.

The focus on your content vs the "free" content Plex shoves in our face is nice I must admit.

Just a question of preference. In the end I stuck it out with Plex... For now.

Shhhhhh 🤫 we don't talk about the other use.

Rewatched it recently and found it didn't age so well. The homophobic slurs are really jarring. Different times I guess.

I've found CloudFlare tunnels to be really useful. You can restrict who can have access to your apps outside your nextwork. You can also leave it completely open if you want.

When Reddit said moderator tools were exempt from the API pricing, did they mention the tools would stay as is?

I'm assuming not since the mods are still protesting.

I'm out of the loop of the details regarding the impact on mod tools.

I can only imagine that 5his wasn't a recent interview, but I know it's not the case. He's completely lost it. Very out of touch with what made Reddit Reddit.
