How have they doubled their prices?

HDD manufacturers have been increasing their prices as of late for the same products that were previously cheaper

Nope. Most recent delta is a decrease of $0.0000022 per MB. And the general trend has been decreasing for decades.

my users can watch on their mobile devices for free using a license I paid for once close to a decade ago.

You sound like a boomer talking about the house they bought decades ago for $75,000.

It’s not the same at all.

Plex practically doubled their prices to access features that users previously had for free.

Can’t remember the last time a HDD manufacturer put previously free features behind a paywall or when a Mullvad doubled its prices.

Not a dumb question at all. There isn’t any software associated with my DAS. It attaches via a USB and mounts like a regular drive. It does have its own power supply so it stays on even when the computer is shut down. Then when the computer restarts, the drive mounts again.

It’s basically a giant attached hard drive.

Please don’t turn this community into a meme dumping ground. You can go to r/piracy for that.

I have a qnap tr-004 das. Works great. Raid5 configuration. Attached to my server. AMA.

This looks neat. Thanks for sharing.

I’d start with proxmox.

What distro are you using? JF recommends Ubuntu.

FWIW, I found TechHut’s Jellyfin YouTube tutorials super easy to follow when I was just starting out. He also has a video on FStab which you might eventually find handy. I haven’t watched this stuff in long time though so it might be outdated. https://www.youtube.com/c/TechHutHD

i literally have to spell everything out

Yes. You do. That’s just the way it goes.

It doesn’t matter if you’re doing OSS or looking for venture capital, you need to sell your project/product to users. In an OSS project, prospective users need to understand why they should invest their time. You always need an elevator pitch or one liner. In github, the elevator pitch is the “About” section on the right hand side of the page (on desktop).

If you want to see what a good sales job looks like for Open Source, check out hoarder. It’s one of the best I’ve seen and certainly one of the main reasons it has received over 13 thousand stars in about one year.

Most of us started with the TRaSH Guides.

Also it’s not Linux or Windows; it’s Docker (which works on both Linux and Windows).

Also check out YouTube. There are a lot of great tutorials on there.

Here you go.

You can use yt-dlp to download just the audio stream. After you install it, open your terminal and run:

yt-dlp -x --audio-format mp3 https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLLHW_tnxUzXEbQqtEVK0EyvYKM2yC4fsr

Better to use something like ultra.cc. Their Tank Streaming or App Vault plans are what you should look at.

Thank you!

Honestly there are only so many clickbait headlines a guy can take in a day. I’ve reached my quota. Can some good person or bot tl;dr this please?

Mentioning Five Filters because no one has mentioned it yet. It will pull the full text of the articles and present them to you in your RSS reader (or FreshRSS) so you don’t have to navigate to a browser to read the article. Everything takes place in your native RSS app. I use it as a docker container. Actually, I create a stack with FreshRSS and Five Filters in the stack.

Five Filters has a paid service, but they also have a free docker app for people who want to self-host. https://github.com/heussd/fivefilters-full-text-rss-docker

I’m still searching for a good iOS reader app for FreshRSS.

I appreciate your effort here & the screenshots. Unfortunately, this isn’t what I was looking for. This just imports a “dumb” feed and doesn’t actually integrate with the API. Integrating with FreshRSS’ API, (the app OP mentioned), allows the RSS reader to interoperate with the FreshRSS application. For example, if I read an article on my mobile device, it will be marked as read on FreshRSS. So if I later pull up my feed on Newsboat (on my linux machine) or Readrops (my android tablet), those same articles won’t be presented to me again. Also, if I’ve made any customizations regarding my home feed in FreshRSS those will also be reflected in these other RSS Readers. That’s why the API is the preferred way to connect to these other readers.

I just didn’t see a place for a user/API key input within feeeed.

I couldn’t get this to work with FreshRSS. Do you know how to integrate it with the FreshRSS api?

I’m an American. Native English speaker. The subtitles are 10/10 for The Bureau. It just depends on if your friends like to watch shows that are subtitled.

Question about browsers: Do you have a preference of Firefox, Fennec or Iceraven?

Thanks for the tip about Web Archives. I’ll put that on for sure. Was considering sideloading Bypass Paywalls Clean and they mentioned Iceraven, which I had never heard of.

Edit: BPC link goes to a *.ru TLD. Link is also on the BPC wikipedia page. They previously got booted from gitlab and github.
