Your rationale for going Pop was my exact one. I knew I wanted the bleeding edge, but this was a device I was going to (mostly) daily drive. I wanted it to be reliable. And Pop fixed that for me and didn’t force my hand with shoving Snaps down my throat.

Glad to have another join the ranks!

Tuya was also supposedly reworking their API/integration to allow for local control, though idk if that ever happened.

Depending on the hardware, you could totally allow access to port 53 via a firewall rule. Unifi does this transparently if you configure a DNS server running on a vlan other than the one you’re connected to.

Tbh no clue. Never saw it again, never heard about it again haha.

Shouldn’t this account be flagged as a bot account? Or am I missing the marker that says it is?

There definitely is a reason to collect telemetry with user consent. Not everyone will go out of their way to report on issues, or there may be features that are underdeveloped that users may use more often than they expect and they want to move resources from focusing on one aspect of the OS to another. As long as it’s done with consent and is an opt-in system it’s fine. I get that this not the case for this Intel one, but I’m speaking generally for development as a whole.

There are reasons for data collection. But having it be opt out instead of opt in is the more evil of the two choices.

Fedora, from what I last heard, is doing the same thing for new installs. You gonna go send your pitchfork over that way too?

I’m still using Windows on my gaming rig, and Pop on my laptop, and each have their own quirks.

You made me exhale heavily through my nostrils. Well played.

I don’t agree that there’s a big difference, though. Yes, one has much more of a base for their claims than the other, but both defeds are based largely on the personal opinions of the administrators of the instances, whether they’re politically motivated or rooted in the desire to not have to moderate and micromanage the content posted from that instance. In that way, both of these are the same decision made on the same grounds.

I’m restating their reasoning. Not speaking firsthand on whether or not they are. Sorry, should have clarified.

Try telling that to the lemmyers (lemmings?) In this Technology thread that were clowning mastodon.art for blocking social.bbc for BBC’s history of transphobic rhetoric, considering there are a decent amount of transgender people (and other LGBTQIA+ identifying people) are members of their instance. Same situation, definitely not the same reaction.

EDIT: It was in Technology on lemdro.id, not Fediverse. EDIT 2: Spelling

Ah good ol Grafo. Chloevely was short but good.

Lol as bad as it is, just reading what’s output to stdout. Worst case, tailing it via a terminal. I do want/need to actually implement a proper solution at some point, but I haven’t actually pulled the trigger on beginning the hunt for a solution yet.

I don’t use the Memory app specifically, just a photos. As far as browsing my backed up gallery, Immich winds hands down between that and NextCloud. The gallery and tagging id the closest to Google photos I’ve come in a long time.

You can, but only have one app (Immich or whatever you use to back up to NC) handle uploads. Right now I am doubling up but I have enough spare space that it isn’t affecting me, so I don’t mind.

Yeah that was my point. That’s why NC is my main and Immich is my secondary.

Been backing up to NextCloud using PhotoSync on iOS and Android the last few years. I also recently implemented Immich, and although that means doubled up photo backup, it’s nice to test out and witness firsthand just how much Immich is improving with every release.

Don’t judge the project based on that. It’s genuinely a quality application once you get it up and running.
