So you’re saying that you spend like 50 GB or so for every movie in your library? That’s unbelievably impractical. What if you want to download some locally to your phone or laptop for a flight, you have to pick the one or two movies that you think you’re gonna watch. I keep movies in 1080p at about 3 gigs or so. I just flew out to Denver and back and was happy with the dozen movies I was able to download locally for the trip.
Dude it’s like billions of miles away and 50 years old, give it a break

Right. I mean, I looked into this a few years ago when I set it up and just accepted my fate
You should definitely set up pihole but I don’t think it’ll block ads on streaming apps unless I’m wrong and someone can point me to something that explains how I can set that up.
I have a Synology NAS, and while their Synology Photos is really good, it’s no match for Google Photos. It’s not their fault though, any self-hosted solution is going to be harder to share photos and do collaborative albums and such. And Google Photos image and face recognition is just not matched. I backup my entire photo library to Synology Photos but most of them are also in Google Photos for ease of access and sharing.
You may not like this answer but our solution to this is a Google Photos album, locked down so it’s invite only. Paired with a social media vigilance keeping an eye out for unauthorized posts. We’ve only had to treated to kick someone out of the album once. It works well for us. Especially at family events, people post the photos they take too so we have access and they now know not to post on social media.
I think it’d be a huge win for privacy. People don’t understand how much data google has on them or what’s possible to do with it. This will illustrate it exactly and hopefully open people’s eyes to switching to privacy focused alternatives.
The best thing I can say about Beeper Mini is that almost no one noticed I was using it: blue bubbles just started appearing — no lost messages to speak of.
For all the bitching and moaning about green bubbles, no one even noticed the blue one?
Stop trying to bring iMessage to Android!
Once a picture is taken and compressed into a jpeg (or whatever) why is there a need for any extra support beyond “sending an image”?

Nah. Fuck em. I don’t need iMessage.

Can my wife and I both add stuff to the same list via a Google home? And then will it sync quickly if we’re both in different parts of the grocery store checking items off?
I can’t wait for Proton to ship Drive for Linux just so we can get a different complaint as the top comment on every Proton thread
