Navidrome is still the best music server, even with all of its limitations. For what it’s worth, the developer is currently working on features intended to support multiple music libraries. It’s going to happen eventually.

Does nextcloud deck have recurring tasks yet? I didn’t think it did.
+1 for long-ass backup script. First dump the databases with the appropriate command. Currently, I have only MariaDB and Postgres instances. Then, I use Borg to backup the database dumps and the docker volumes.
Database SQL dumps compress very well. I haven’t had any problems yet
Testify!
I always thought that the word “island” was just short for “isolated land” – There has to be some reason there’s an ‘s’ in there right?. But some etymologist told me it didn’t come to be in that manner.
v1.105.1 is already out. Apparently there was a critical bug in v1.105.0 to do with external libraries.
I wanted to follow up here because I became aware of a pretty good solution for this. It’s called pine pods and it’s an open source self-hosted service that also syncs with GPodder (or Nextcloud’s version of it) so it will keep AntennaPod and itself synched.
I currently use AntennaPod with NextCloud’s version of GPodderSync; which is…adequate.
My ultimate solution would be one where a self-hosted app that tracks and download my podcasts, and then proxy them with some sync mechanism to an android app, but keep them as separate shows with artwork and stuff rather than consolidate them into one feed. I could then choose to listen on the self-hosted web interface or the Android app, and they would be kept in sync.
Using pencils to manually rewind cassette tapes.
If using open source projects and sharing my experience by helping others on forums and logging detailed bugs when I find them counts as contribution, then everyday.
I’m a software dev myself, but I have enough on my plate with my day job and two kids that have to be taken to all manner of activities. I don’t know how all these people find the time to work on free software, probably for little to no compensation, but my hat is off to all of you, wherever you are.
GoToSocial is pretty good, but it has some fundamental limitations like being unable to follow hashtags and not having a web client of its own. I currently have a self-hosted instances of both Mastodon and GoToSocial (for testing purposes), but I mostly use the Mastodon one.
Bookstack is what I self host, but this is the best pure markdown editor I’ve found: https://markdownlivepreview.com/
I am using a normal desktop case with an external usb-c 8-bay JBOD drive enclosure from Mediasonic. I’m using mdadm to combine the drives with RAID-6. I know I’m not getting the performance that I could with native SATA, but it can still saturate my 1Gbps network, so it’s good enough for serving video, audio, and some other web-based apps.
I have investigated many, many subsonic compatible apps for one as full featured as DSub. Tempo looks great, but does it have Chromecast and Android Auto clients? Those are both necessities for me.
The fact that DSub has all of these and hasn’t really been in active development for years speaks volumes about its quality.
I will keep a close eye on Tempo, though!
Facebook can get fucked. They offer even less to me than YouTube.
Plot twist: they’re allergic to nuts and this was attempted murder.
I’ve been using it for about 1.5 - 2 years. It’s always been there for me.
I use AntennaPod as well. I cast from it all the time.
I remember running Slackware and having to recompile the kernel for just about any hardware you added. I configured a box to be used as a router before routers were something you could get commonly at Best Buy.
I was taking comp. sci. at university and all our work was done on Sparc workstations. Having a Unix-like machine at home was a great help during that time
