As to filling up the drives so fast, have you considered transcoding it to a smaller format (such as HEVC/H.265) in real time? I know that would require quite some CPU power. Even H.264 is likely to improve on camera native formats, as those often need to encode the videos with embedded/low-power CPUs. Do you need to retain the footage beyond 3 months?

I found nextcloud easier to set up than many other services, plus it comes with cloud file storage and other goodies as a bonus.

It is even easy on such obscure platforms as NetBSD in an nvmm-backed qemu virtual machine runnning on a NetBSD host.

(EDIT: well, it wasn't really trivial, the database (PostgreSQL in my case) setup and connection is not necessarily obvious to someone who hasn't done it before, but the fact that it works without real complications on very diverse platforms is a testament to its clean code.)

But that's the whole point: the is no centralised organisation. Which is the reason most of us are here. Duplication is just an unavoidable side-effect.

And it's not as if reddit were immune from that. Lots of similarly named subreddits on the same topic.

So that's not something that is "to be done". (Unless you meant TBH: to be honest.)

Quite like it. Jerboa is usable despite its early development state.

I miss and probably will continue to miss some of the smaller niche communities, which are really only viable on huge servers/networks. Notably /flying and /NetBSD. There probably aren't enough active users to create thriving communities on both reddit and lemmy. Although /r/flying participates in the blackout, I expect most redditors there will stay. I used the site on desktop most of the time, too, and I don't see myself cutting all ties, either.

So, ambivalent, I'd say. I'll see what the mobile app situation will be in a few weeks; Infinity has worked well for me.

Ok. Anyway, I took the dive and created a small niche group here and just see how it goes. Nothing going on yet. As would be expected.

Ok, so what are you trying to say? I should not create a new group? This one is on feddit.de, as far as I understand how lemmy works. But I'm totally new.

I also signed up to Mastodon, mostly to support the digitalcourage.social server, but probably won't be using it a lot. I didn't use Twitter, either, but Reddit. I will probably continue to use /r/flying and /r/synthesizer, as they are so niche that I cannot expect anything comparable here.

I'll have to figure out how to post with Mastodon account on Lemmy.
