If you are willing to follow the self-hosted route metube is a browser based converter and has yt-dlp as backend :) easy to use (once you get everything setup !).

No scam, virus issues, can even download a whole playlist, video…

imo a monorepo is better for retrieving information than if you split it out. Forgejo search does not work across repos, and imo even if you used a provider that does, it is always more complex to have to look in many places vs 1. I would advise you try putting all your personal scripts in one place rather than spread them around. I only give my apps a seperate repo when i am ready to share them with others and i need that clear boundary for access.

Thanks for the tip ! Yeah, there goes my idea to host forgejo to the drain. If I can’t search across repos that’s a big NO ! I thought to use repos like a book and separate everything according specific subjects :/. Humm, maybe I should give Git-server + mdBook a try like someone suggested below.

I keep a note called _focus that i go to when i am overwhelmed. It contains my “seven W’s”, which are links to separate notes which are purposefully kept simple.

Haha, that’s a nice way to refocus your mind on what’s important ! Thanks for sharing your personal way to refocus on what’s important ! 💖

I have already tried most if not all alternatives proposed by alternativeto.net. Joplin and logseq are both great but they have some limitations that breaks my workflow.

• Logseq is mostly bullet points
• Joplin i can’t remember why I didn’t liked it :/
• Zim is maybe to barebone?

Thank you for your insight !

Hmm, I don’t have experience with hosting Forgejo, but my intuition tells me that because it has relatively many features, that its administration is more involved than if you only host a Git Server.

Yeah that’s what I’m afraid of… The maintenance seems a bit complex and it seems to be solved with a hosted git server :) Seems promising I will give it a try !

Thank you !!

Thank you :) I have hidden my post In case someone was already writing something. I will delete it after a few hours and I’ve already posted it back to PKMS. Sorry I didn’t used PKMS as keyword :/.

To answer your question… Yeah I suppose analog note-taking is probably the best, You can write without any limitation in every direction !

Yeah :) I recently switched to a private tracker and qbittorrent was way to much cluttered with public trackers.

If you are on different private trackers and try to keep it clean and easier to find what torrent belongs to what private tracker, its better ton only have those tracker in your list.

I had the same question and somehow found a way to clear all trackers but on the client… So I have no idea if this is going to work in the web UI.

Select all your torrents => right click => trackers => and remove all the lines you want to remove.

Oho? Didn’t knew that. Thanks for the info ! Do you know what caused the residential IP block ?

• Outside of EU?
• To much API calls from the same source?
• Something else?

I mean, I don’t see way they would block residential IPs with normal api calls from the same source. Or are they full enforcing the account thing on everyone?

Self-hosted piped/invidious still working great if you want to follow this route. Everything from no-ads/sponsor block/comments works without any issues.

One downside however, is that you’re exposing your own public IP to Google/YouTube :/.

The only thing I’d recommend against are pre-built NASes. Theyre proprietary AF and so overpriced for what you get if you don’t need the handholding of the consumer NAS software.

The moment people realize a NAS is just a small factor desktop with a lot of space with good Ethernet speed, their eyes widen up the same way people realized the cloud is just someone else’s computer.

A NAS is just a small desktop computer. If you have a motherboard/CPU/ram/Ethernet/case and a lot of SSDs/HDDs you are good to go.

Just don’t bother to buy something marketed as NAS. It’s expensive and less modular than any desktop PC.

Just my opinion.

What do you mean by showstopper? I only encode my shows into AV1/opus and I never had any transcoding happening on any of my devices.

It’s well supported on any recent Browser compared to x264/x265… specially 10bit encodes. And software decoding is nearly present on any recent device.

Dunno about 4k though, I haven’t the necessary screen resolution to play any 4k content… But for 1080p, AV1 is the way to go IMO.

• Free open/source
• Any browser supported
• Better compression
• Same objective quality with lower bitrate
• A lot of cool open source project arround AV1

It has it’s own quirks for sure (like every codec) but it’s far from a bad codec. I’m not a specialist on the subject but after a few months of testing/comparing/encoding… I settled with AV1 because it was comparative better than x264/x265.

I found out that you need to allow All files access for Gallery or that info box won’t show up. See my response somewhere in the post :)

I found the solution after digging their GitHub repo.

You have to allow All files access for Gallery:

deleted by creator

Can confirm, I do not have that option. Latest version with Obtainium.

Yeah ffmpeg is powerful but far from easy to master and get It right when working with encoding.

Wow you triggered a lot of vim users !

Maybe give micro a shot :) It’s nano but more sane defaults and comes with customization in mind.

FFMpeg Simple and underrated? Not sure about that.

Nothing fancy but I found an old RPI3 and want to selfhost Vaultwarden and piped on that thing to give my parents a way to watch YouTube without those nasty ads and give them a proper and easy way to store their password. (Over wireguard tunnel)

Also If the universe aligns buy a N100 or 200? To host my own router/switch setup and finally take advantage of my 5Gbit fiber 🫤. I still need to figure out how I get WiFi AP to work with a N100…

Not much but I have a lot other things to figure out but mostly software wise :).
