I am the administrator of Laguna.chat.
I sirt it manually. I just rip a CD, edit its metadata with MusicBrainz Picard then place all the MP3’s in a folder for just the book and then move it to the folder of the author.
Once scanned by audiobookshelf I modify the metadata a bit more and then let audiobookshelf combine the book to one file.
Probably welcoming, not every Reddit employee stands behind the decisions made by their management.
If they enjoy to browse Lemmy more then Reddit it doesn’t automatically make them unloyal to their job or a enemy of Lemmy.
I use duplicacy to backup to my local NAS and to Storj.io. In case of a fire I’m always able to restore my files. Storj.io is cheap, easy to access from any location and your files are stored and duplicated on multiple different locations.
I have used duplicity before but restoring from a new installation takes a while, as duplicity has to reanalyze the storage.
What a journalistical mistake, you can’t directly compare a group of countries with a single country. In this case fallen behind means in money. Which is quite a bad assumption.
Audiobookshelf is da bomb! You are going to have a great time while installing it, using it and sharing it with friends and family.
If you need help just send me a DM.
First of all, I’m not a lawyer or a legal consultant, just a instance admin that wants to make sure that his instance complies.
Lemmy does not store any PII (birthdates, legal names, addresses,securitynumbers). But users are able to share whatever they want. And that can be a problem.
Check out my instances legal page: https://Laguna.chat/legal
In the future I want to make sure that my instances content can only be shared by GDPR respecting instances.
Fairphone 4 running /e/OS. I love the modularity, quality and robustness. Just the fact that if I drop my screen I can just replace it for €80 using my own hands.
/e/OS is still in development, which you sometimes notice, but I love its privacy focused aspects. It is decoupled from Google, includes a tracker monitor and blocker, an appstore that can download apps from the Google Play store anonymously and best of all the developers do deliver. All their releases are well tested.
The only thing I struggle with are in app purchases. If they use the Google Play platform they just won’t work.
I bought this phone from Murena, which is a branch of the /e/Foundation that sells devices with /e/OS preinstalled.
I accidentally posted using the wrong account. I tried to delete the other post which seemed to work on the instance but doesn’t seem the federate.
I am a fan of Namecheap.They have lots of exotic domains. Domains are easy to manage, free domain privacy but their support is really slow and a bit incompetent.
For local domains, like: .UK, .US, .DE, I register there locally. Thus making sure that all my service providers are capable if handling the local privacy laws.
For DNS I use cloudflare.
That’s great. I really want to play Apex.
Well the gaming on Linux scene is quite big. Most triple AAA games without anticheat work. The anticheat systems are changing to allow Linux. Check out ProtonDB or Lutris.
Contabo and NetCup are really cheap. But only if you use their shared VPS option. If you are lucky the CPU steal is low.
