oh wow, not in a long time…well over a decade…almost 2! i gave up on live tv around then
im usin kodi/jellyfin (plex is proprietary) mostly for the ‘pseudotv’ plugin… so i can have a cable-like system from my local storage
why do i feel like this gets reinvented every…oh 18 months as some brand new thing.
i swear ive seen ‘biodegradable’ 6-pack ring stories going back to the 80s
with everything being web-based, windows is slowly turning into a fancy dummy term/thinclient. exactly the control businesses want.
linux on the other hand is being fleshed out as a true desktop pc with all the customization most of us expect of a daily driver.
its been suggested… i think its called ‘community groups’ or something like it. you could aggregate any community subscriptions into an arbitrary group
it was suggested as a fix for all the same-topic different instance issue… you could add the ‘cats’ community from all the different servers into one group. would fit your needs it sounds like.
why ask why, try bud dry
hey, i can see it now! thanks!
i dont see the resemblance
its in active development, for starters.
the point of mbin wasnt originally differentiation of any kind, it was that the lone kbin dev did not share duties, or actually develop on a normal timeframe. this behavior kept kbin from flourishing and implementing all kinds of suggested, developed PRs.
it was forked to mbin as a community project where anyone who wants to contribute basically can by committee instead lone stewardship. you would need to check the repo for all the changes per version… but the best part is, its an active dev group.
hell they could have called it anything… seems like they couldnt get past their egos to see the value in a new designation
not really. kbin is kinda dead. long live mbin
i hope so. its part of the reason i run an instance. to give people a place to migrate to, but still be able to contact their peeps.
well, kbin is somewhat defunct. mbin is under active development, and many of these things are on their radar. moderation tools are coming along, user list is not really an issue. they even got mfa workin!
these applications and the environments they are building are in their infancy. instance admins cannot expect a mature product, or that they wont need to get their fingers dirty to implement features they want. lemmy is at what, 0.19.4?
the image caching/filtering is good example of an ongoing concern 'verse-wide. as the lemmy devs pointed out, if this is a solid concern as an admin you would implement file scanning. if you absolutely want to use lemmy and need a user list, build it.
this shit is not turn-key
e. ive been running mbin at https://moist.catsweat.com almost a year
is it hard to… ya know… hypothetically obtain one of these cheaper, mexican imported evs? askin for a huh friend
naw, what you do is write a small exe to play “youre the best” by joe espesito through the pcspeaker at 15% volume than you can trigger remotely…randomly until the user goes mad
“doesnt anyone else Hear that?!”
my favorite bit was how no one at microsoft actually understood their own licensing pricing. for decades, you could call microsoft for pricing and get different answer from people in cubicles next to each other or even from your own rep.
it was as if they were making it up as needed.
id watch it. the live action scooby doo was way better than i expected
