    The internet is full of bots pounding at your machines to get in. It is only a matter of time until the breach Jellyfin.

    If you are talking about brute force attacks for your password, then use a good password… and something like fail2ban to block ips that are spamming you.

    This point doesn’t exactly match, but: public services like google auth don’t require users use vpns. They have a lot more money to keep stuff secure, but you may see my point… auth isn’t too trivial of a feature to keep secure nowadays. They implement similar protections, something to block spammers and make users have good passwords (if you dont use a good password, you are still vulnerable on any service).


  • Wow you have totally changed my mind about my original post!

    Serious though, just here for discussion, but it seems that there’s a lot of sheep here that dont question anything or try to expand upon their knowledge… which is a problem, why can’t you reply with something constructive?

    Keep reading your headlines that fuel your anger if that’s what you want, but don’t reply to people that oppose your views if you have nothing to add.

    You had a chance with your reply to help me and possibly others understand your viewpoint more, but all you have done is make me hate u lol.

    Tangent warning thats too late







  • An admirable goal, even though I’m pretty sure current science says it’s not possible. I don’t think he’s smart, but maybe the actual smart people working on this will get somewhere, and if that helps people, that’s good.

    Might not get anywhere, but I suppose it’s worth a try (assuming the academics involved think there’s a good reason).

    At face value, it does seem like an invasion of privacy, if there’s no consent to share medical records, etc.

    p.s. the nazi comments are kinda gross, if they wanted to exterminate disabled people, they surely wouldn’t need to make headlines about them gathering data, it could be a private affair.


  • the only thing I miss is the big preview window in the file manager

    I may be misinterpreting you, but I think this is a thing with Dolphin. It has a preview pane, which supports all the file types I commonly interact with (F11), which can be dragged to resize bigger or smaller.

    I haven’t used any preview thing on Windows, which is why I think I may be misunderstanding.

    Anyways if you haven’t tried Dolphin, maybe it has a solution for you (made by kde project, but I believe it should be installable for any desktop environment).

  • I don’t think a vpn and mail providers can relate in this scenario.

    I have heard in the past that authorities have forced (possibly proton, but I forget) to basically wiretap incoming mail before proton can encrypt it for storage on the users account (because pretty much no one sends encrypted mail in a way that only the receiver can read it).

    The only data other than that, that they store is ip logs (when forced to, I believe) and recovery email addresses. They are not able to present existing encrypted mail to authorities (from before a wiretap).

    This seems overblown, I don’t think theres more they can do. Users have to start sending encrypted mail from their inbox, then the wiretapping won’t be an issue (proton address to proton address can work like this I think).



  • That article is stupid. Any company that receives a “legally binding order” has to comply with it… what would you expect?

    Most companies aren’t going to commit a crime to protect a user (like that one dude who ran an email service and destroyed it when he was required to hand over data, forgot his name!!!). If they did, they’d be out of business…

    (The article isn’t exactly dumb, but it doesn’t address this properly in my opinion. The outrage over it seems dumb to me. The government will force companies to do whatever it wants, be mad at the gov not the corpo in this case when its to apprehend a journalist or whatever… i understand if its a terrorist or similar, but this specific case may be more poopy om the gov behalf)




  • Thanks for your reply, I will definitely keep that in mind if Seafile fails to meet any critera moving on, but yeah your last point is also right, it would probably be a big pain to migrate out at this point with all my data for multiple users here.

    It seems a lot has been modernising recently, I didn’t know they were also using Go, but hopefully they continue with it for new code.


  • NextCloud being so slow forced me to migrate to Seafile.

    Seafile being less one-stop-shoppy made me not use it so much, but whenever I do it is always fast and responsive (unlike nextcloud, where 80% of the time I was looking at the loading indicator). Looking it up now though, it looks like it has a lot of new features I haven’t yet tried so I’m probably gonna start using it more now.

    Only downside with Seafile is it’s deduplication (for me), because it stops me from easily accessing files directly (always gotta use a client). Likely a benefit for most though and I do rarely need to access a file directly on disk, just when I do, it’d be an easy shortcut for whatever I’m doing.



  • I have no source, but I remember seeing a graph of where iPhones sell and places like China/India were 80% android phones (mostly Samsung I think).

    I don’t think the asian marketplace puts Apple products in such high regard as the US.

    Samsung phones are still premium, I think they appeal more in other countries.

    I see what you mean though with 20% of just China being almost the US population, but they are still losing 300m customers.
