Better at what? Being science fiction or fantasy?

That has its drawbacks too though, federating with many, many instances will eventually cause strain.

I do want more growth via instances, but imo it’s more like a double edge sword than the salvation of a platform.

Don’t expect perpetual growth from the fediverse for one good reason:

It would cost more money.

Lemmy is self hosted and there are people who use their own personal money to host these things and have a certain amount of activity.

Doubling the users would double the cost but it would not double the usefulness for the instance owner.

I don’t get it either, does the water holder want to water the flowers? Cause otherwise it’s still a bad bucket

Cool, so do you take ghost money?

Uhhh, no.

Then why did you let these ghosts in? Exorcists are a thing you know.

Can someone explain to me why we have such a shortage in Canada when it’s simple supply and demand.

If supply is low, can’t the province run healthcare just pay more or even just lower tuition for new doctors?

It sounds similar to the other labour shortages where they refuse to pay more and act like they’ve tried everything.

Yeah the whole of generated AI feels like legal piracy (that they charge for) based on how they train their data

Hi,

I’m trying to find a way to have my iPhone’s photos be automatically (or even manually) backed up/synced with my home server.

I heard about photo prism here and got it up and running, however I could not find a free app that lets you sync. Photo sync is their main recommendation and it puts high quality photo backup behind premium.

Is there any solution that lets you backup your photos through home wifi?

Thanks in advance.

Edit: thanks to the suggestions, I found this handy chart listing many and comparing them: https://meichthys.github.io/foss_photo_libraries/

Just thought more people should know about this cause… CGP Grey is awesome.

Sorry to post something that should be in the you should know community… but that’s in lemmy.world which would take this down.

Please let me know if I should post this somewhere else.

Hi,

I recently built a new gaming computer and have been contemplating about the OS.

I prefer to move away from windows given obvious reasons and do like using Linux, but my experience with my steam deck has taught me that pirating games in Linux is hit or miss.

I played around with windows LTSC and honestly, seems like windows without the bloatware.

So question is, how is game pirating on Linux (in a desktop, not steam deck).

Is it as smooth as windows or should I just say fuck it and accept that my gaming computer has to stay windows for another generation?

 

I’ll see myself out.

 

They are honestly both good, but can’t beat the native ios experience.
