The article doesn’t explain how way exit works

The only comparable I was able to find is Bitwig Studio, but it’s quite expensive and I wasn’t doing so much music so I stopped making electronic music instead.

Yeah, the only problem is ai have PieFed open constantly, my RSS reader only once a month or even less.

Thanks for posting the links to those week in fediverse articles. It’s always a good overview.

Yeah it’s bad. Most of the points made in that article are valid.

And once Firefox is gone, all the LibreWolfs and IronFoxs are gone too.

Right now https://jeena.github.io/recoder/ which I just released and here is why (copied from the website):

🎬 Why Recoder?

I used to edit family videos in Kdenlive without a problem — it handled footage from all our devices without complaining. But then I switched to DaVinci Resolve, and suddenly nothing worked right. My Sony Alpha 7C, my Galaxy S24, and my wife’s iPhone all produced files that Resolve couldn’t handle without transcoding.

😤 Too Much Fuss, Too Many Steps

Every time I wanted to edit, I had to hunt down the right ffmpeg settings and manually run them on each video — a frustrating and repetitive task.

My typical workflow is simple: I create one folder per event on an external HDD and drop in videos from all our cameras. A script renames the files based on the date and time so I can easily sort them. But for Resolve, everything has to be transcoded to DNxHD — which only supports resolutions like 1920×1080 and 1280×720.

🔄 Vertical Videos? Extra Pain

That also meant vertical videos couldn’t work. So now, I rotate them during transcoding to preserve resolution and rotate them back in Resolve during editing.

✨ Enter Recoder

I built Recoder to automate this annoying step — so I could spend more time editing memories and less time fiddling with command-line tools.

I thought they hopped on trumps post truth wagon and removed all the fact checkers, why are they making a fuzz about this specific topic?

They want humans back but only in a gig economy as far as I remember.

You can always add them as a external library

Yeah I saw that they don’t want to start. Need to find an alternative on how to install the android SDK.

Ah, my terminal is probably not high enough

How did you know?!

Urgh I didn’t know about the license change, that’s a bummer. How come every project with ‘Open’ in it’s name goes a similar route and becomes not open?

Now it’s freeware with available source, but you can’t build anything on top of it.

Retirement seems nice. I hope I’ll get there some day before I die.

You could install peertube and share other peoples traffic.

Good.

Some examples:

• Lemmy: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ansible/blob/main/templates/docker-compose.yml#L81
• Firefox Sync: https://github.com/mozilla-services/syncstorage-rs/blob/master/docker-compose.mysql.yaml#L13
• TinyTinyRSS: https://gitlab.tt-rss.org/tt-rss/tt-rss/-/blob/master/docker-compose.yml?ref_type=heads#L10
• Mastodon: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/blob/main/docker-compose.yml#L5
• PeerTube: https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/blob/develop/support/docker/production/docker-compose.yml#L71

and many more.

Isn’t my dad the hosting provider? I ordered the hardware, he connected it to his switch and his electricity and pressed the button to start it the first time. From there on I logged in to his VPN and set up the server like I would at Hetzner.

But you’re right it doesn’t really make a difference. I feel the only difference it makes for me where I post my questions on Lemmy if it is in a !selfhosting community or a !linux community.

From a feeling perspective, even if I use Hetzners cloud, I feel I self host my single user PieFed instance (and matrix, my other websites, mastodon, etc.) because I have to preform basically the same steps as for things I’m really hosting at home like open-webui, immich, peertube.

But then you can’t just use the containers provided by the service developers and have to figure out how to redo their container which in the end is more work than just run it manually.

Where is the tipping point though? If I have a server at my parents house, they live in Germany and I in Korea, does my dad host it then because he is paying for the electricity and the access to the internet and makes sure those things work?
