I went ahead and just deleted my entire pictrs cache and will definitely disable caching other servers images when it becomes available.

I still use it but I have to say the fact that the page auto-refreshes when you leave the app and come back drives me bonkers.

Ya im not sure what the deal with the hate is. ChatGPT gives you an excellent starting point and if you give it good feedback and direction you can actually churn out some pretty decent code with it.

Yes and thats my point. The $10 a month is likely not sustainable because of their contracts with record labels.

I guess I don’t really know exactly how their model works, but I’m guessing that is only for independent artists. I bet they paid big bucks to the major record labels.

Pretty much inevitable I’ve been amazed they went this long. $10 just does not seem sustainable.

Besides the privacy aspect of it all, I just know in 5 years they will declare the camera a security problem and shut it off. I want a porch camera that lasts for 20 years.

Yep, while other were complaining about issues it was smooth sailing for me.

On the flip side, discovering new communities is a pain, and whenever i subscribe to a new community it can take hours to start populating comments.

you could try Bookstack

If you don’t mind switching to Tidal, you can do that with Plex. Otherwise, I don’t think it’s possible.

linkding was one for me. It sounded like a great idea at first, but, I never used it. Shut it down after a couple months.

I use it for gaming with friend groups, but would gladly get off it if my friends would too. Sadly that is a near impossibility. lol

Discord is flat out garbage as a forum. Once you pass say even 15 people, it becomes a total mess of posts burying other posts, you can never find anything. I have no idea why everyone wants to use it for something it was never meant to be.

I did it. So far I’ve noticed a few things, for example you have to populate/federate the communities yourself, and it can take a long time. It took hours to retrieve and catch up all the lemmy.world posts. I expect it to be an ongoing thing. When you first connect to a community, it downloads the first 20 posts, but all the comments are empty.

The plus side though is it is very fast for me. And nobody can delete my profile.

Right now I’m using Plexamp. Really nice app, offline features work really well. Sonic Analysis is awesome. Only issue I have is it crashed sometimes when I’m using Google maps.

Did you try the docker-compose file referenced in these instructions? It worked first try for me. The hardest part was proxying externally. I’m used to using SWAG so I had to get the nginx config working with SWAG.
