Thanks for mentioning running costs, I was curious about that. How much more do you think the NUC is costing you compared to a Pi?

Finally someone mentions a product name. I am so sick of these “uh duuuh, there are better alternatives out there, hurhur” commenters who name not a single one.

I’ve been using it as my main keyboard for a while now. It does work well enough, but yes, lacks some features and I am also concerned why its not updated anymore.

Yeah, I still have it working with the workaround of compiling it with my own API key, but decided not to update this any more. When it stops working like that I am out, not that I actually use it that much anymore.

Looks interesting, is the android app available any other way than the playstore? On the github page I can only see files for windows and linux, maybe I am missing something obvious here.

Well, its maybe not very safe since the app saves your login details. In my case I don’t care since my server is not accessible online, just in our home intranet. But it is super useful if you have some commands you repeatedly run. I’ve been wanting to setup a script to run my backup process fully automated so I could just start it via the app, haven’t had time to do that yet.

Similar, I have a raspberry pi running nextcloud for storage and jellyfin as a mediaserver and I do a lot via phone too. Actually a lot of times I use an app called Raspi check which can send command line inputs that you can save and just tap to send them immediately. Like rebooting for example.

Try Seal. Its a standalone app for downloading with yt-dlp.

Last I tried, 1-2 months ago, voice navigation was not working properly for me, somehow very rudimentary output like just saying “next left” or something.

Also since I don’t have a phone holder I don’t look at the screen while driving in the car, so I turn of the screen and Organic Maps does not give any voice output anymore then.

Osmand+ works better in both cases.

There’s dozens of us! I started using it while I wrote my thesis, running a backup like every hour while writing.

I almost never see rdiff-backup in such threads, so I am bringing it up now. Somehow I really like how it works and provides incremental backup with folder structures and file access still accessible directly. Works well enough for me.

That’s weird. When I look up Libretube I can find it in my f-droid app. Says it needs Android 5.0 or higher, maybe your version is too old so you cannot see it?

Not sure how long ago you tested it, but there is now an alternative Android app called Findroid which I like much more than the official app.

You know, its not that hard to just try and google “intro skipper jellyfin” since its actually the name of it, but here you go https://github.com/ConfusedPolarBear/intro-skipper

I don’t think there is any plan from Jellyfin to support pre-converting from what I remember reading. It is going to be quite resource-intense either way, but you might be able to schedule something during a time you wouldn’t use the computer.

That said, what kind of machine you got? Just asking because it is not unpopular to use a raspberry pi as a server, but converting media on it will not work very well.

If you want to share those downloads in an easy netflix-like way you should consider a small homeserver with Jellyfin. Even a newer raspberry pi is strong enough for streaming to 2 or maybe 3 people at the same time, unless files need transcoding to different codecs.
