I think it's because Jellyfin still needs some polish.

It's getting better every day, though. I run both in parallel and usually use Jellyfin, but my family uses Plex for now.

Ah, excellent, thanks. That's one of the things I use most in Mint.

It could be that I misunderstood, but I mean something like Mint's feature where you can have it do something like this: "Always rename 'YRBNK PMT' as 'Your Bank Payment' and categorize as Credit Card Payment".

I've been checking YNAB out. I really like that it has an API subscribers can use.

One of my complaints is that it doesn't seem to have rule-based categorization, but I may just write a script (or find someone else's) that interacts with the API.

I use Ubuntu with no complaints, but Debian is probably better, like others are saying. I wouldn't use Fedora for this.

  • Audiobookshelf - Self-hosted Audible. I cannot believe how smooth this is. I set up the docker container, tweaked the ID3 tags on my audiobooks (to group series), and that was it. The Android app is listed as alpha, but it has been nearly flawless for me. I am astonished.
  • Tailscale - A slick low-config VPN solution. Probably everybody knew about this except for me, but I recently tried it and it's great. I had to tweak several things to fit my exact setup, but once I figured it out, it has been exactly what I hoped for. No more messing with dynamic DNS or opening ports. I just start the client and I'm home. I'm hoping I'll have some extra time soon, and if so I'll try to go full FOSS and attempt to use Headscale on a VPS.

Unfortunately, no, you just need training data on children in general and training data with legal porn, and these tools can combine it.

It's already being done, which is disgusting but not surprising.

People have worried about this for a long time. I remember a subplot of a sci-fi series that got into this. (I think it was The Lost Fleet, 15 years ago).

A few I haven't seen mentioned:

  • Moon+ Reader - My favorite ebook reader of all time.
  • Tea Time - Simple timer widgets
  • Simple Time Tracker - Track what you do
  • NES.emu, Snes9x EX+, M64+ FZ - Emulators
  • Thunder - Lemmy
  • Root Explorer - file explorer
  • Lichess - Chess, free of ads, no fees. Almost entirely FOSS.

Also +1 to the usual favorites: Firefox, Termux, Nova, etc.

I think my problem is trying to run docker at the same time. Docker messes heavily with iptables and makes it a real pain.

I did this as well, but I'm wondering if it was the wrong call. It's harder to work with firewalls (particularly if docker is involved), and I've struggled with stuff like SyncThing.

Most likely more learning could solve it, but I wonder if I should switch to a dedicated router OS where more support resources are available.

Kubuntu currently is working really well for me. I'm not a hardcore Linux user (used it lightly for many years, daily driver for only couple), so it's nice to use Ubuntu where there's plenty of online answers. Plus I like KDE. So Kubuntu is a good fit.

I recently tried Fedora for a while, but I just had problem after problem with my hardware. It was good aside from that.

I agree.

I liked the simplicity of Audacity, but every change is destructive, so any changes that involve multiple steps are a problem. For example, consider this sequence: 1) remove noise, 2) add reverb 3) change pitch 4) trim ends 5) oh shoot, I want to change reverb settings.

With a full DAW like Reaper, steps 1, 2, and 3 are adding effects but not changing the original audio. So if you want to tweak the settings or remove the effect, it's no problem.

There's many other benefits, but this is the issue that really motivated me to move to Reaper.
