Offline hours? Is that something that happens often enough to need a work around?

Kinda? My bare bones initial self hosted media streaming setup was put together by my partner. It’s no longer bare bones, because I’ve since upgraded it, added new functionality and I keep it going.

I use digikam with sidecar files on my main photo editing PC.

We sync this directory with a media server on the local network that enables all of the local devices to access the photos and tags. In theory, it means we could run digikam on another device as well, and sync data between them via updates to the sidecar files, but in practice, we don’t do this and the media server is effectively read only.

Then, we sync the media server images with a photoprism instance that we have running on external hosting. Photoprism recognises the keywords and sidecar data from digikam, which lets me search and access the images from anywhere.

“Has a future” in this context means “Streaming media without explicit ownership rights will continue to be here/relevant in to the future, unlike the idea of ‘owning’ digital media”

Old Intel NUC running external drives via USB C is exactly our setup. Jellyfin + Navidrome and other misc stuff

I was hoping there was something else out there at the moment, but if there isn’t, it’s really good news that it’s coming to Navidrome. I’ll be patient :)

Yep, I use Symfonium too, and it does exactly what I need, but only on Android! I’m looking for something to drive the music at home too, which means I need either a windows client, or a linux client with a web enabled GUI.

I tried Musicbee, but I couldn’t get the subsonic plugin to show the music in the Musicbee library. It exposed the music files, but none of the metadata I used to build my playlists from. If I could get Musicbee pulling ratings and last played information over the subsonic API, it would be perfect!

A lot of redditors hate reddit

And even when they get it right, if they don’t explicitly have something to flag the person as trans, then the data doesn’t get accounted for in crime statistics.

And speaking as a trans person, the last people I want to know that I’m transgender are the police, so even self under-reporting could be a factor

The villification is why the reported numbers are so low.

So many of us are robbed of our identity in death.

There are proportionaly more trans people in richer countries

There are proportionally more openly identified trans people in richer countries

It’s not a “misfeature” though. The inherent nature of decentralisation is that there is no single “true” view of the network. You can only ever see part of it, and you ultimately have to curate that view so that it fits your needs. This is part of that.

No more than anywhere else on the fediverse

Yep, but that’s true of keyword search on all fediverse platforms, and unlike lemmy, you can follow micro blog fedi accounts from kbin, so you can federate non group content in more readily

lemmy is the more mature platform, whilst kbin is newer and more feature rich.

What it amounts to is that kbin can do things that lemmy can’t do, but the things that they both do, lemmy tends to do better. And as kbin is effectively in alpha at the moment, it doesn’t have much documentation, making installation and configuration a challenge.

The biggest point of difference in features is that kbin is aware of other fediverse content in a way lemmy isn’t. kbin and lemmy both talk to each other really well, but kbin also natively supports other types of fediverse groups (gup.pe, friendica and chirp). kbin also lets you see non threadiverse content, by attaching hashtags to groups. So if you set up say a cycling group on kbin, you can also make the group watch the #cycling tag, any any mastodon or other micoblogging content will appear on a special tab in your cycling group.
