I assume you’ve never used Linux long enough to get a grip. You would get there if you use it long enough.
However, operating systems are just tools. Use which one is easy for you. If you have no spare time to learn a new OS, just use what you know. Though Microsoft’s latest shenanigans really force some people to switch to other OSes.
Pricetags are absurd because they don’t have competition.
Yeah it has a simple UI for watching as well. It’s really an all-in-one solution.
If they can get away with this instead of total closure, I see this as a save. A weighty one.
I see. I recommended that because it’s kinda like rolling release. I haven’t used openSUSE as a server but I remember people who use from Reddit self-hosted.
You can also try Void Linux.
You can use Debian Testing.
Tube Archivist perhaps?
Well, while that’s the main reason, there are indeed some side benefits as well. I guess the first one that came to my mind is, I got rid of a lot of spams. Mostly because my Gmail address was in lots of breached websites. I also deleted any unnecessary accounts at variety of websites, because of these I haven’t been in a breach scandal since 2019 (That’s the year I finalized my transition to Tutanota). I use it on my government accounts, banking accounts and any other formal accounts, or the ones I trust. For the rest, I use email alias services and if I get a spam or even an annoying mail through that, I can just stop it there and I forget about them.
Also it’s not just warm fuzzies. Privacy is a basic human right and it should stay that way on the internet as well. So it’s nice to know to be freed of personalized ads hell, at least from the voluntarily part. Can’t really do anything for the involuntarily part besides GDPR. Big corporations getting our personal data is not different from someone watching my house with a binoculars, same level of creepiness. I don’t think any sane mind would be comfortable knowing this.
I’m a simple man. Just knowing some entity is not munching my mail data is an enough reason for me.
Congrats!
It’s a slow process. Took me 2 and a half year to completely move away from Gmail. Worth it.
Ask “are you sure?” and it will apologize right away.
I guess that’s what happened to one of my old websites. It became a some weird Chinese website :/
OsmAnd may have lots of features but it’s heavy and clunky. Organic Maps on the other hand is quite light and very fast. If you don’t need the some features OsmAnd has, Organic Maps is a way better experience.
Always has been.
Yeah, that would be nice for the running seasons I guess. Maybe even a couple years worth seasons since most of the traffic will come from those.
Sorry for the confusion. Don’t take my words literally, I’m not an expert on databases. I use JSON for my job and it’s enough for me, so use what database your project needs. But by full-fledged I meant completely leaning on databases which may slow some things down for the server side. However I now checked PostgreSQL and it seems much better for large datasets, so I don’t think that would be a concern for you.
Well, since 100k titles would make a pretty big database, at least storing the metadata like years, seasons, genres etc as hardcoded could make it run faster than going full-fledged JSON, at least I meant that. However this will be an open source project and there will be localizations, so now it doesn’t look like a good idea to me somehow.
That’s a good analogy.
