Check out immich, I use that self hosted and it’s exactly like Google photos. It even has optional facial recognition.

People have already engaged. There’s nothing left to say to this other than I wholeheartedly disagree and this is a bigger deal than you’re making it out to be.

Hard agree

Many of the games listed here have old or dead links, and you can’t sort by rating either. I had a very bad time finding games using this site.

I kind of figured but it’s such a meme in the GT community that I couldn’t help myself lol.

Oh my god it’s greg from gregtech. I thought for sure you’d have keepinventory off.

Yeah their other stuff was even worse. They had a mug, a t-shirt and a hoodie. Those 3 things had cheap letters put on that looked like they would come off in a couple washes. I only got the hat because it had a patch that couldn’t wash off. It’s all very generic and low effort.

They had problems selling it on gear.playstation.com, I had to contact like 3 support people and they eventually submitted a manual order directly to the warehouse (?). They said they had an order to remove certain items from the site but it hadn’t gone through yet. They didn’t specify which items, but I’m sure you can make a good guess.

Edit: The title is just a meme, but I did legitimately buy one of these.

*arr stack and chill

Hi

My substandard pizza is like $4, edible crust isn’t worth the difference when an upgrade is slightly less substandard pizza.

No script lets you individually allow js on certain sites, even specific sources. Block all by default, allow safe sites or temporarily allow other sites based on need. I started doing that this year and it hasn’t been nearly as much trouble as I thought it would be.

Exactly, so use Proton :P

I haven’t noticed since I started exclusively using plex for all of my media except YouTube. Highly recommend.

Ah damn. I use sharex but was wanting to switch to Linux. Is there a unanimously agreed upon best replacement for sharex? Might as well try flameshot.

You have Monday and Tuesday as your regular days off. I’m enjoying my honorary Friday night haha.

This makes me think. By now, werewolves and vampires are mythological beings we use as entertainment and find great joy in discussing even though we know they’re not real. Hundreds of years from now, maybe popular culture (D&D 86e or something) will be filled with Jewish Space Lasers.

That would be great, but I also do like having chat channels in addition to forum channels. And voice chat is one of the most important parts of the whole thing, but I didn’t mention those because matrix does text and voice chat just as well as discord. And I agree discord is popular among younger people. Though all of the active people in my community are in their 20’s through 40’s, I think we have maybe 1 or 2 people under 18 which we technically do not allow but we have exceptions for them.

Most of our members we met through online gaming, and it’s a lot easier to get a gamer to join discord than it is a website based forum or a platform they have never joined (matrix, etc).

Mostly to do with the permissions system. I want a hierarchical set of categories and channels, and I want to be able to set one user as a privileged user, and instantly get access to all of those channels, or some of them, depending on the permissions settings. I also want some users to be able to see some channels, but not all, with only a single join action. In discord you join the “server” and you get all channels unless permissions specify otherwise. Then when you get a role, you may be able to instantly see and use several other channels. Some servers let you choose your own roles, and manually give you others, to customize what you can see and interact with.

With matrix there are… permissions. But they can’t be inherited by a room from some sort of category, it’s hard or impossible to automatically hide some rooms from users who join a space, with an option to instantly give them access to those rooms with an easily configurable toggle. Rooms tend to act like their own space sometimes, and each can have their own invite which is annoying. I want them to act as a collection under a single membership, just like you can join a single discord server, and whether or not you see them, all channels are contained in that server and getting access to those channels is a matter of role permissions. I also vaguely remember having trouble with the admin stuff and adding other admins/moderators to my matrix space, but I can’t remember what problems I had with that.

Basically it’s hard to make a large matrix space with many many rooms that have different purposes. Not to mention the lack of forum channels, those are required for my type of large community.

I have a few hundred people in my community. I imagine it’s much worse with larger communities.

Edit: now that I think about it, my moderator team even looked up some of the missing features, and the matrix devs had stated that they are not planned, and that is not the direction they want to take matrix in. Which is fine, but that means it has a completely different use case than something like discord for communities.

I run a large community, it’s not just a matter of asking people to contact me elsewhere. You can’t uproot a community and bring it somewhere else, and I wouldn’t be able to at all because of matrix’s and revolt’s lack of permissions systems, bots, and other things that are unique to discord. I would welcome a viable alternative. I’ve spent many hours trying to make matrix work with the functionality I need, and it’s simply not possible.

As far as the link goes, I’m not sure if those rules mean the links themselves must not contain tracking, or that the website on the other end must not contain tracking. You can have youtube links that themselves have no tracking information in it. You can’t just ban links to any site with tracking, you’d just have nothing you can link to.

Edit: the rule also says “isn’t great”. That’s not the same as “isn’t allowed”. Forcing someone onto a frontend that either doesn’t work for them or is annoying to use I think is worse than letting users redirect themselves using a “tracking filled website” link.
