Holy crap. I don’t, but after seeing that I think I’ll need to start

I’m concerned about when governments get ahold of usable quantum computers.

We’ll always be one step ahead of the bad guys. Fortunately we have places like this where like-minded people can gather who understand the dangers.

Are you seeing any errors in the logs?

I have run both Plex and Jellyfin and I much prefer Jellyfin. I got sick of Plex content being interjected into my menus and feed. Plex also had issues seeing my server which was inconvenient. I now run Jellyfin with Infuse as my client. Love it so far.

• Backblaze B2 for my most important stuff. Encrypted of course
• Backup HDDs and M-Discs stored at friend’s house

Dumb question I know, but do I leave this running on my instance or on my own computer?

Doing your part!

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. It’s fun we are at a stage in which we can define what we want this community to be like not just technologically but as people. Also note this can be done on an instance by instance basis, too.

Just an idea. You could try hosting and using these apps on a VPS from a cloud provider to find out what your needs are.

What are some examples for when you’d use this?

I love this idea. It raises some issues to think about, too. Like, who “owns” that data? Would Reddit file a lawsuit against the Lemmy instance arguing that the data belongs to Reddit? Does the data belong to the users who posted? What TOS do we agree to when signing up for a Reddit account? Are we giving them ownership of all content we post?

Setting up Lemmy is pretty straightforward, especially if you use the recommended ansible method. You could do a brief self-host and if it works for you keep it around.
