On one hand it is nice to see companies give back.

On the other hand, their revenue was $249 million in 2023 and their income after expenses/taxes was 8 million.

• 120,000 / 249,000,000 = 0.048% of revenue.
• 120,000 / 8,000,000 = 1.5% of their income.

It just seems like a small amount to give back for how much they are bringing in.

You're not connected to wifi or vpn from the looks of it. jellyfin is hosted on your local network. You need to be connected to that network for any device you want to access it. The most direct way is to connect via wifi. If you want access from outside your house you'll need to look into opening a remote connection via something like cloudflare tunnel

Wait, organic is a forprofit publicly traded company?

Yeah, this is a surprise. And its even called out in the open letter

The Organic Maps project has been built and promoted under the premise of being an open community project, so it's troubling to discover that the majority of shareholders consider it to be their sole property. [...] (see Addendum for the details)

Then in Addendum:

The role of Organic Maps OÜ

It's a for-profit company (an LLC basically) registered in Estonia:

ariregister.rik.ee/eng/company/16225385/Organic-Ma...

The company holds key project assets, e.g. the trademark and the app store accounts. git.omaps.dev/organicmaps/organicmaps/src/branch/m... states that "The primary purpose of the entity is to shield the project's members from personal liability and to ensure the legal protection of the project's assets."

Until recently there was never a mention that the shareholders treat their shares as their personal investment. Even that explanation document was only added to project's repository 4 months ago - before that the only brief mention of Organic Maps OÜ's existence was in the footer of the https://organicmaps.app/ website, so the most of users and contributors had no idea about its role and ownership structure.

Roman @rtsisyk holds 1/3 (33%) of shares, Viktor @vng holds 2/3 (66%). Alexander @biodranik is not a registered shareholder, but allegedly Viktor holds his 1/3 (33%) nominally.

Interesting that it sounds like it is immediately overwriting the whole primary drive rather than trying to exfiltrate any data (or anything else) first

Logseq to some extent, but it's set up to be a journal/ meeting notes where you tag pages, add documents, etc. it would be up to how you've tagged things. Does have a graph view of your pages and whiteboard feature.

Personally it wasn't exactly what i wanted out of a PKM but it is really powerful. It's intended to handle taking notes efficiently from meetings and then somewhat self organizing the notes as long as you tag stuff.

Foundry was the 2nd thing i started self hosting (the first being pihole). Have had it running for 5 years now.

Other than that i only recently started expanding my self hosting:

• tandoor recipes
• navidrome (for music, mentioning it since it isn't the typical media server recommendation)
• personal knowledge management (pkm) static website that i build with hugo
• umami analytics
• Remark42 for comment system on one of my internal static websites
• a few smaller things that i built. One is a discord bot from before i started hating discord, and then a few web apps that i haven't open sourced yet

Python is case sensitive. I think they're saying their coworkers are writing case insensitive code which is causing errors (perhaps writing myFunction and then calling it via myfunction which would result in an undefined error)

Without knowing what reddit is doing, I'm not sure. A JS redirect could be detected, but if OPs paid shortener service is working then reddit is probably working off a simple domain block list. In that case you could use throw away domains.

But JS redirect, proxy response, etc all could just become a game of cat and mouse. Just depends how motivated either side is. But given how big reddit is, i think you'd have the advantage at least in the beginning. Just gets expensive since each time your domain gets blocked you'll be paying to register a new one.

I'm not familiar with the reddit filtering but have you tried using cloudflare page rules? You can try capturing everything after the .tld and then forward it to a lemmy server. So for instance somedomain.tld/12345 could forward to lemmy.world/post/12345. If reddit is checking links for 301 redirects to lemmy though then that wouldn't work.

A more advanced approach would be to use a cloudflare worker to do a proxy response so the status code is returned as 200 OK instead of 301 redirect. I haven't tried that but i think that would be much harder for them to block and you could always make more elaborate urls to make it harder to find obvious lemmy-like structure

I would use cloudflare pages (or any forge 'pages' feature) before using tunnels for a static website

Ubunutu for a server in ~2019.

Arch for my workstation Jan 2025

Well just speaking for myself, i use git without a forge for personal stuff because i was already familiar with git and it fits my needs. No need to learn another version control system for some basic projects i throw together
