Maybe switching some of them onto a cheap seed box replica would be better? They have high in/out allowances.

I was so excited about Shelly when I first discovered it. Ordered a ton of stuff and started swapping over. The reliability was awful. I have a giant box of them that I don’t know what to do with.

I really liked their stuff, but things have been out of stock lately. Their lightbulbs only lasted a year and they stopped selling them. I’m concerned they are having supply chain issues.

Still using Insteon. Nothing else is as reliable. Works even if the Wi-Fi router is down. Their hub talks to Home Assistant and that integration has been rock solid. Under the new owners, the hardware is better than ever. But I have 18 year-old light switches and plug-in modules still working flawlessly even after moving them to three different houses.

What sort of bugs are you experiencing? I’m using the official Jellyfin app and it’s been extremely stable on all my Apple devices. But I noticed a while ago that videos that were not MPEG were problematic so I converted all the AVI and WMV and WEBM to MP4 and it has been much more reliable. Scrubbing and previews have worked much better also

I really like Orange Host. Good service and reliable and based in Iceland. https://www.orangehost.com/web-hosting

I would be the most concerned about the music. The MPAA exists solely to sue consumers and seems to have no other real purpose. Probably best to scrub the soundtracks.

That’s good. I thought I had some lying around but every time I look it’s not there.

I would at least wait several years before you sell it. Make sure you have thoroughly unhooked yourself from that domain. Keep an email box open there to collect any legit messages

I would love to see a return to curated link collections. Each person’s hobbies and expertise represented in links to the places they contribute, the repositories they are part of, the resources they depend on, and the information sources they consider reliable.

If you added some very basic support for verifying and following links that change, and something to prevent unauthorized AI bot scraping, and shipped it in a docker container that would run on small hardware like this, maybe an alternative grassroots internet could re-emerge.

If it’s just so you personally can access it away from home, use tailscale. Less risky than running a publicly exposed server.

Our world in a nutshell.

I run my Jellyfin on a Synology NAS and it connects to Tailscale on boot. (Doesn’t require any of their cloud stuff to be active, either). Maybe a cheap/used NAS is your answer?

K&T Host does Lemmy and it works great. Their support is stellar.

You could do regular manual blinds with solar powered Sunsa motorized wands.

I’ve had mine for 5 years now they work great with HA (once you get past the setup)

I got a Dawarich instance running yesterday, so far it is pretty good. Getting it running over SSL was an absolute nightmare but now that it’s working the tracking is pretty powerful.

Brilliant, love these options. I think Dawarich looks fun, and really powerful data gathering that is mapped to places and summarized, which is very cool

So many good options! Ya’ll are the best

Not liquid enough.
