Yeah maybe I got so used to SSD’s that I can’t remember the leap between SSD’s and HDD’s.
An as you said the difference between M.2 isn’t that much of a difference in game. There probably lies my bias.

Does it really make that of a difference? Sure I use SSD’s for a long time now but haven’t seen that much of a speed improvement over HDD’s in games. Even with a m.2, haven’t seen any improvement.
However data transfer speed is another story !
Yep ! No-ads, no-sponsor, no-shit.
You even don’t need to self-host, just disable piped proxy, enable local extraction, use HLS and a good VPN.
Sure it’s not as anonymous and sometime I need to disable my VPN, but that’s only temporarily, until they find a new loophole in youtoube’s api.
That’s not piped nor invidious backend’s fault, just YouTube doing his cat and mouse thing…
Thank you :)) ! I have the same question as @umbrella if your have any other insights to share !
how is varlink better than dbus to justify that change?
Someone a short ELI ? I read the article and the comments… But I have no idea what this is about.
Maybe someone has an article that explains for someone not being educated as computer scientist ?
Nobody ever talking about lychee ?
Yes okay it’s not GPL or written in a fancy new language (PHP is still alive xD). But it’s simple, elegant, no UX bloat, no ML or IA stuff… Just a plain simple self-hosted photo manager.
One thing I really liked about it, you can import you external photo’s with .xmp files, just one checkbox away.
The tag feature is simple but working as expected. Nothing fancy but it does best what’s it’s supposed to do !!
Call me old boomer but I really like the simplicity of lychee. It’s a bit like how reading an article from miniflux or wallabag… Simple html files without bloating your eyes or your brain…
Just my 2c, nothing to see here !
In case you missed the point 🤙
To expand on my previous comment I dug a bit deeper the rabbit hole with exiftool to showcase how powerful meta tags
are over conventional tags
. I was curious how It would work and find an “universal” embedded tag system that works nearly on any software.
First thing first,from my personal research there are 4 important types of metadata fields:
It’s also possible to copy one over to the other. The most important ones are IPTC
and XMP
which are read by most image manager. XPkeywords
and MDItemUserTags
are OS specific to windows and macos respectively.
After some reading and fiddling around I used the following commands:
exiftool -IPTC:Keywords="Phil's Exif" Wallpapers/image_proxy3.jpg
exiftool -XMP:Subject+=one Wallpapers/image_proxy3.jpg
exiftool -XMP:Subject+=two Wallpapers/image_proxy3.jpg
exiftool -EXIF:XPKeywords="tagtest" Wallpapers/image_proxy3.jpg
exiftool -MacOS:MDItemUserTags+=tagging Wallpapers/image_proxy3.jpg
I spun up a lychee docker container to test if my tags are automatically recognized:
What does that mean ? Does are embedded meta tags that works with every software capable of reading the IPTC or XMP metadata. Those tags will follow your pictures rather than being bound to a specific software database. So your tags are portable and embedded into you files which is in my opinion a better long term solution.
There’s probably way more to it and something that could be further explored is to export your metadata as .xmp
file, add those tags into the OS (XPKeywords, MDItemUserTags), bash script to manipulates even further…
Hope it helps to give you a sneak peak on what exiftool is capable. I’m a noob with this tool but it already shines and shows it’s power and capabilities with some basic commands.
Here are some resources if you want to give it a try and follow my trails:

An other solution could be exiftool by Phil Harvey. Don’t judge by how the website looks… It’s probably the best and most complete tool to edit the metadata directly into your images (and way to much other formats xD).
Even though it’s very well documented, exiftool is very complex and there’s a lot to read and grasp before getting comfortable with it. There’s always the forum if you have any question, but before asking the forum go through the FAQ (yes I know it’s huge… But as starting point look at number 11) and search a similar question in the forum.
Here I found a topic that looks like what you’re a looking for:
wow ! Not OP, but thank you for such a dedicated answer ! 🫶👍
Emby which already had music support.
Didn’t knew that ! My bad. Thanks for the precision !
I dunno… Jellyfin does great as a Video media player/streaming platform. I prefer to not have everything in the same basket.
Also, this is better for Dev, so they only have to concentrate to one type of thing. I would rather suggest navidrome as a music server and Tempo as a music client for android !!
Tempo doesn’t get updated so much (every few months) but he/she takes his time to make his player functional and very pleasing to the eyes.
We are in the mess that we are because less than 50% people vote in the first place.
Even if 90% people vote, if they only have choice between a turd or a piece of shit, that’s not really a choice 🫠
I just recently learned about azireVPN.
Any thoughts?
Azire looks great ! I’m interested on why you choose azire over protonVPN?
I have a self-hosted Baikal server with self-signed CA on Android 14 and it works.
However, I didn’t had to add the certificate to Davx⁵ itself. Adding a rootCA into your device and your reverse proxy handling the request should work as expected over https.
Those kind of things are difficult to troubleshoot, this could be:
We need more infos about your setup:
Yeaaah I already played a bit arround with step-ca ! Right now a make a mini-CA with openssl.
When I get more comfortable with how everything works together I will surely give step-ca another try.
Maybe all package managers default to libtorrent 2.0.X, but that’s not true when downloading from the website.
Maybe you are a windows user?
Close enough… Got MacOS, Windows and EndeavourOS and there’s also an appimage available on their site so it’s not only because you’re a “Windows user”.
Can’t argue against that.
However, I prefer local domain names accessible via Wireguard with self-signed certs. I like to understand how everything works under the hood !
Also, I’m broke AF and buying a domain name (even cheap ones) are out of my budget :(.
I hope this is a smooth release, I do not want to bork my EndeavourOS. It took so much time to customize it to my personal taste !!
