Its the “new hype tech product background” gradient lol

Oh interesting, i am not super familar with zfs’ tools, so thats pretty cool! Ill have to look at that for my storage array.

How has zfs replaced rsync for you? One is a filesystem, and the other is a filesyncing tool. Does zfs do something im not aware of lol?

YNAB is a life changer. If you buy into the way they orient budgeting, its amazing. I think their envelope style budgeting is the easiest way ive budgeted before, but i know its not for everyone.

I found someones old internet shrine about them a few weeks ago, they really are crazy interesting. And definitely of the cosmic horror variety lol

I would like to kill a billionaire. Just once, as a treat.

Yea im pretty sure flatpak suports bundles that you can install directly, just like an appimage

I just had to switch my work computer from Arch to Ubuntu becusse they want MDM on all computers now, and flatpaks are litetally the only reason i can tolerate it.

I now prioritise getting stuff from flatpaks, then the repos, and if they dont exist i use Distrobox to export any app thats only on the AUR for example.

Bitwarden is so good. I cant be bothered to self host it tbh, but ill gladly throw money their way for premium for having the best cloud-hosted PW manager

Just setup cert-manager for a client at our work thats moving to a Kubernetes cluster. Setup the ACME issuer using DNS Cloudflare challenges, its awesome how simple it is to even get internal hostnames with certs.

Ads like this really arent all that scumny my dude, i mean at least IMO lol.

You gotta pay the creator to use the app. Sync isnt free, You either pay with ads, or you pay with your buckaroos. Thats just how it works. And its pretty transparent. No trying to dupe you, hes not secretly selling your data (at least as far as i know). Either view ads so he gets paid, or pay him directly. I dont see anything wrong with this business model. The issue i have with ads is the intrusiveness of them, or the stealth of them. Reddits ads are scummy because they look like reddit posts, thats not cool.

Implementing ads after getting a user base (like in your lemmy.world example) is different because they are changing the model. If i were to join an instance that started off with ads, id be less miffed because if i like it enough i can stay and view ads / pay, or i would move to a different instance. I wouldnt call it scummy. I would understand that they gotta pay bills to keep that server on, and thats how they decided to do it.

For what its worth, i am a FOSS guy all the way, and take all opportunity to block ads. But im also willing to pay for software that i think deserves it. I donate to my lemmy instance, and have paid for Sync Ultra, because they are both great and the maintainers deserve to get paid :)

I also have a foldable, and forgot how much i missed using Sync because of the foldable support. Got it today and am in love all over again lol

Hugo all the way for me. I’m not the type to write my own themes, so I have no issues there. But being able to write my own snippets and whatnot is fantastic, and I love being able to write my posts in markdown. I have two sites running Hugo and I love it!

For real. Crowdsec, a crowd sourced blocklist / basic IPS system doesnt really have a living forum. You ask question through unindexable discord threads… so often times I cant just google an issue i am having with the app. I have to open up my damn Discord account while at work to get answers.

Its awful.
