I usr it every day its great.

In theory one day its going to be too much for our current bandwidth. We are no where near that even with single user instances.

There are ways of making things much more efficient. Piefed for example bundles up votes so the API doesn’t get hit with millions of upvotes all separately. Peertube has P2P video sharing so the more people host/view videos, it actually gets faster. Theres a ton of others. But it sounds like a future issue.

Thats the idea! You just have to get them off the store and download them somehow.

It looks like its not working for me.

coo see you there!

Calibre is what I would take a look at. There is a web version that has a couple of different setups. for docker this looks interesting:

https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-calibre-web

Ive also used yunohost (mostly for ease of use and backups) here: https://apps.yunohost.org/app/calibreweb

Its basically the same thing either way.

Im seeing a huge increase in people using stoat. And its been fun.

If anyone is interested in Retro Games: https://stt.gg/GJh5JHy2

am I right in understanding that I can host my library of ebooks on my home server then point a client at that server so I have access to my full library without having to save the books locally on device?

Some do this and some dont. I personally find ebooks to be so small that it doesnt matter, but some people use the server client to keep track of where they were at on certain books, helpwith their large collection, share with others of the family, etc…etc… And I think books with pictures such as manga, magazines, or other such take up more room so it might make sense if you have a lot of those.

I personally like having the system auto-update my device with new books and convert into nice to read formats for my custom devices. It works out really well.

• The Wandering Inn book 17 - Lady of Fire . So far I am enjoying it. Its my soap opera guilty pleasure. Theres some parts I dont care for. The push into government is something I could care less about. But the personal stories keep me coming back.
• The Heart Grows - by Damaged - https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/51893/the-heart-grows I keep up with the series. The characters and writing style keeps me going back. Lots of good world building.
• The Hundred Reigns [Timeloop LitRPG] by Maxime J. Durand (Void Herald) . I basically like everything Void Herald publishes. Hes push into the more grittier side of writing has me wanting to read more and more. I cant wait to see what happens in the story.

A long time ago, I was in an apartment that had a bike trail with only one road crossing it at one point.

I could get to work, get groceries, and a couple of other things all from my bike. It was an awesome 2 years. I would put on my headphones and in 10 minutes get to where I wanted to go without any of the issues car drivers have.

Im jealous of people that have that but for their entire city.

I had no idea this was a thing. Interesting. I can see from liability why this is not something they dont want to touch, being a general purpose instance.

I think lemmy/fediverse needs a place where if you try and subscribe to something blocked, you get a post/page explaining why they did the thing. Its going to confuse new users otherwise.

Oh nice thanks!

Both are great. NeoVim is better /s

I miss ipconfig. I had to make an alias just for it that I load up on new machines because its part of the muscle memory.

How interesting. Ive never seen this before.

calibre is pretty great. I also have a kobo and its the reason I can load/convert a lot of what I read.

Its a combo of my os, pip, and thier requirements file.

Im seeing @[email protected] not showing up on my local instance when I subscribed.

Shows up in piefed so I may have to look at my logs or something: https://piefed.social/u/[email protected]

I could not get it running on my local Linux machine. Looks like some error involving one of the packages. A shame. Added an issue to the board. Ill take a look in a bit after they fix the bugs.

It would make a good website to be honest. Most people will probably only want a one off of their home city.

I found https://citytoposter.com/ which seems neat. Not perfect though.

So realistically, what can we do? Where are the best places to move to?
