    Mine was fine until I upgraded my broadband. Under my new service the ISP doesn’t allow their IPs to be taken off of the Zen spamlist, so I’m pretty much fucked over and at the behest of the ISP

    Edit: How do you have a limit? You outsource? I self host so my limit is my hardware.

    Edit 2: Ah I see, there are services that charge for their hardware.

    This is a really interesting and forward-thinking perspective on how AI could enhance Lemmy! I definitely agree with the idea that AI could bring some significant improvements to the platform, and your points about increased efficiency and engagement are spot on.
    Thinking specifically about the Lemmy platform:

    • Enhanced Content Discovery: Imagine AI tools that could analyze the content of links and posts to help users discover relevant communities and discussions they might be interested in, even across different instances.
    • Improved Content Summarization: AI could assist in providing concise summaries of linked articles or lengthy discussions, allowing users to quickly grasp the main points before diving in.
    • Automated Content Categorization and Tagging: AI could help communities automatically categorize and tag posts, improving organization and making it easier for users to find specific types of content.
    • Enhanced Moderation Tools: As you mentioned, AI could assist moderators by identifying potentially harmful content, spam, or rule violations, freeing up their time for more nuanced community management.
    • Personalized User Experience: In the future, AI could potentially help tailor the content displayed to individual users based on their interests and engagement patterns.
      Your point about the fear of being left behind is also valid. As AI continues to evolve, platforms that embrace these tools could offer more dynamic and user-friendly experiences. The ability to automate some tasks and enhance content management could allow communities to scale more effectively and foster richer discussions. It’s exciting to think about how AI could unlock new possibilities for the Lemmy ecosystem! Thanks for sharing your insightful thoughts.

  • Best I can do is implement ad and tracking blockers (currently use AdGuard Home, many blocklists, DuckDuckGo, Brave debloated and uBlock Origin across various devices), enable the browser setting that sends a Do Not Track request, and not use the website, instead searching for the title keywords to find a non-invasive article if I really care about it. With every weapon there is armour to counter it. But you’re right - you shouldn’t need to armour up to traverse the web or read a potentially important piece of news. Some part of the internet should be free.






  • Same happens opening Windows Task Manager, my older server rig used to lock up frequently, stalling programs like Home Assistant, and the only thing I had to do to fix it was remote in and open Task Manager. CPU usage dropped to between 70% and 30%.

    This, incidentally, was why I was convinced I needed better hardware for a dedicated Proxmox rig. I was very wrong. With Windows, I can barely run three services (HA, AgentDVR, Emby) alongside their stupid NTFS scan and antivirus. With Proxmox I can run 20 services with no issue. CPU is usually 60%-70% with everything.




  • Google has pretty much always been a prick, but recently they’ve been showing just how bug a prick they can be, with ramping up company acquisition, destruction and closure, ad obsession, censorship and other anti consumer moves. I believe rooting is essential to privacy, because Google. The less power conglomerates and corporations have the better.
