    I always thought this and all the other sites like it were just SEO bait. The quality of the alternatives is no better than random, though I guess you can discover software you didn't know existed. One example: I'm always looking for an alternative to Roon. Like Plex for music, plus you can add in tidal or qobuz, so you can essentially listen to anything on your own library, or the streaming services, from anywhere. It also has an incredible metadata system, letting you view for example, all the players on a jazz album, view bios of every one, and easily start to check out some new music that way. It's unbelievably flawed and poorly run though.

    What is alternativeto.net's suggestion as a replacement? Fucking VLC Media player. The only real contender is PlexAmp, or if you want something similar but only for classical music (and without self hosting your own library), there's idagio. results like that make me think it's totally useless

    Thanks! They've all evolved quite a bit. I've been on Logseq since I wrote this though I'm starting to feel its faults. The main being the syncing is somewhat laborious, and waiting to confirm that your device is synced can be super prohibitive to its use. It's a large friction point that makes popping it open to jot a note, to do, or other such thing a lot harder than it should be! Capacities is working to become offline-first. I liked it quite a bit when I first discovered it but it was online only and no mobile app. Now it's becoming a strong contender for my next move. Obsidian is also a lot more polished than when I last checked it out, and if you have a computer you can use to selfhost a couchdb instance, you can get lightning fast syncing for free. in the PKMS community we're spoiled for choice, but everything is missing one feature or other that we truly need 😂

    Capacities is now fully offline capable! A short comparison between capacities, anytype, obsidian and logseq

    I've liked Capacities a lot but never used it as my main PKMS because it was online only and didn't have a mobile app. They've been on a roll recently, adding a very polished mobile app, and now the latest update has added offline mode. I've tested on my cell phone by closing the app, turning off all radios, and opening again. It works like a charm! I then edited a note, closed the app, turned on my data and opened the app again and it handled it just as expected. very impressive! The mobile app needs some love though it is still pretty new. I would say Capacities and Anytype have similar app experiences, with Logseq and Obsidian being somewhat less refined. The syncing is also very fast - capacities takes about 4-5 seconds, while obsidian (with obsidian livesync and a selfhosted couchdb) takes 3-4, and anytype being just a touch faster usually being around 3 seconds to sync. Logseq gets a dishonorable mention here, often taking over 15 seconds to sync, and often requiring opening and closing the app the sync. between anytype, obsidian, and capacities, startup time is pretty good. logseq takes a dogs age to start up and then finish syncing. This could be because I have a larger graph with logseq, but I would say it's small-medium if anything. Capacities also has editable transclusion which is a prerequisite for me to check out a PKMS. it allows you to embed a note within another note and edit right there. Logseq has it built in but the implementation is very very clunky, especially on mobile. It takes up a lot of extra space. Obsidian doesn't have it out of the box, but the Make.md community plugin is unbelievably good! It's one of my favorite implementations of transclusion, and it works on mobile. I especially like that *any* link can be expanded to view its full content, just by clicking an arrow to the right of the link. you can also make full embeds as well. Capacities has really nice implementation of transclusion as well with one *major* caveat. embeds are not viewable on the mobile app! I probably will wait to switch over until this is addressed. Transclusion is unfortunately not supported on anytype at this time. This adds another polished app that fits 4 of my primary criteria for a PKMS: cross-platform, offline capable (full read and write), fast syncing under 30 seconds, and editable transclusion.

    1. Anti capitalism is just anti capitalism. That's not a theory for how a society free from capitalism should work. Those theories will of course be diverse, and there will be disagreement.

    2. Divide and conquer works for detroying social movements, and is one of the ruling classes favorite weapons of class warfare. It's easy to get agitators to derail the conversation or movement as a whole. There are fundamental differences in what anti capitalists believe should be done and how power should be distributed. I don't believe all leftists think the same thing, but I believe that the vast majority of "leftist infighting" is just agitation by the ruling class.

    On Fast-Travel in video games

    I know this isn't strictly related to patient gaming, but I think it fits the ethos of this community and I can't think of a better choir to preach to. The director of Dragon's Dogma II made the following statement regarding limiting or removing fast travel >Just give it a try. Travel is boring? That's not true. It's only an issue because your game is boring. All you have to do is make travel fun I think this is fairly compelling. Though I will say, I don't think the answer is to limit fast travel. The real limitations developers should be placing should be on filler quests that have you traveling from point a to point b and then back with some slight pretext as to why you're doing so. It's not fast travel that's the issue so much as mission design and the manners in which the player is compelled to cross the game world. Metroidvanias are a great example of how to allow for fast travel while still making traveling around the game world compelling. The latest Metroid, Metroid Dread, was really fantastic in this aspect. You have this sense of progression and exploration *even* as you're backtracking. Would removing fast travel from Metroid Dread have made it any better? I don't think so. The inclusion of fast travel feels thematic. You have to work for it so it feels like an achievement to unlock. It augments the game. So in short, I agree with some of the sentiment expressed, with regards to lazy gameplay design being boring. I disagree with the opinion that fast travel necessarily is boring, or causes lazy desing.

    Trying to put isp router in bridge mode, very much in over my head

    Hi all, I thought it would be as simple as flicking a switch to change from router to bridge mode and plug in my own router, and that couldn't have been further from the truth :( My ISP provides a huawei hg8145v5. I ordered a static IP from them as well. They gave me full access to the router to be able to put it in bridge mode. The router I'd like to handle all actual routing is an asus zenwifi xd8. The setup I'm going for is `ISP ONT/Router > Asus Zenwifi XD6 -> TrendNet 10g unmanaged switch -> NAS, PC, server` So in the isp router, I set it to bridge mode and connected it to the wan port of the asus router, then connected LAN 1 of the asus router to my 10g switch. basically just inserting the asus router in the chain that had been working before. I had no internet at all. Strangely, the asus reports that the internet is connected, but the speed test on the qos section cannot connect whatsoever. I thought it might have something to do with the static IP, so I tried setting the static IP assigned to me to the WAN IP, used the same subnet mask the isp router had assigned, and set the isp router as the gateway. Same exact thing. Basically everything I tried resulted in either a "connected" status yet no internet, or a "disconnected" status. I'd really appreciate some help. I really though I'd just change the isp router to bridge mode and I'd be smooth sailing but I've basically blown up my network. Also for some reason, the windows network tab is not finding my NAS anymore. I can only connect by typing its local ip or mapping a drive, but I used to be able to go to the network in window explorer and my nas would show up there and I could just access everything I wanted that way. anyway, I'd appreciate any help. i've been at this for literally the entire day and am only now reaching out for help. Thanks!

From what I've gathered, a VPS is a good way to get around this so I got the basic $1/mo Racknerd KVM VPS. I'd like a performant way to manage this with low latency being ideal. That is my primary goal. From what I've researched, wireguard would be the most performant way to make that connection. I'd like to be able to access my NAS's primary IP or even set up reverse proxies so I can access it from outside the network, without sending all my network traffic through the NAS. I was under the impression tailscale did this but for some reason when I have tailscale active on my macbook, speedtests show major lag over 100ms. - I've heard wireguard was the most performant but anything will do with the goal of accessing my NAS. The maximum I need is to be able to stream 4k hdr/dolby atmos content from my NAS. - My second goal is to set up Unbound, Blocky and maybe have a fallback to quad9. I'd also like my devices to be able to use this externally. I set up a basic version of this today using [this guide](https://github.com/rajannpatel/Pi-Hole-on-Google-Compute-Engine-Free-Tier-with-Full-Tunnel-and-Split-Tunnel-Wireguard-VPN-Configs/blob/master/REASONS.md). However upon more investigation, I've learned Blocky causes much less latency than pihole. I went down a rabbit hole, researching nextdns, dnsfilter, etc. I think Blocky and Unbound will be great, but I'm more interested in the goal than the technology used to get there. I'm primarily interested in a low latency content/ad/tracker/malicious blocker that's available on and off my network. - Would it introduce less latency to run this locally off my NAS, and have a separate version set up in the cloud for when I'm away from home? I'll happily do this if there's any tangible benefit. My routing setup is ISP modem/router -> asus zenwifi router-> 10g switch, then my PC and NAS. All connected by cable. - Is there a way to set this up with the primary goal of having external access to my NAS? I feel like there's a way to kill two birds with one stone with this. Like maybe having the DNS resolve my NAS's internal IP to the VPS external IP which will then forward traffic requesting that IP address to the NAS somehow (not sure how exactly to accomplish this, or if it's possible). - I set this up originally on GCP due the guide I followed mentioning performance benefits. I'd be willing to host all this on the VPS if that's possible, but would prioritize high availability, reliability and low latency, which I believe GCP would give me better than my budget VPS. Strangely, the latency when connected to the current setup, GRC DNS benchmark is showing 100+ ms latency, while with it deactivated I get about 50ms average. - My third and kinda stretch goal is to host my website and side projects with the help of the VPS since I'll most likely not be using all the storage, bandwidth or computing power from just my primary and secondary goals. I currently host using github pages and redirect to my domain using cloudflare. I had my projects hosted on heroku. It seems like there's a heroku free tier popping up and then quickly enshittifying every other week so it just seems more reliable to host it myself. - - It goes without saying that I'd like to have this be as secure as possible as I've read lots of self hosting horror stories. My priorities are security, cost, reliability, performance in that order. I think hosting unbound/blocky on the VPS would make for a more elegant and easy to maintain solution, but I'm not 100% sure of the reliability and performance of Racknerd's budget level VPS offerings. - So to retierate, I'd like to access my NAS which is behind a CGNAT externally, set up ad/tracker/malicious content blocking, and host my website/projects, with security, cost,reliability and performance in mind. I think I want to use something like NPM, pfsense, blocky, unbound, authentik, fail2ban, and wireguard. either divided between free tier cloud hosts like GCP and oracle, and my VPS for less critical stuff like NAS access, or just put it all on the VPS if that's easier. I've done an absolute boatload of research to try and educate myself, which I've not included here because this would make this already lengthy post even longer. That said I'm still very noobish with all of this and appreciate any advice!

    Trying to install blendos alongside other linux installs. Doesn't show up in boot menu

    This is on a uefi system. I do manual partitioning and select fat32 drive with 1g for Boot and a 100gb brtfs partition for System. I have Fedora, Endeavour and PopOS installed on the same drive in different partitions and they all show up in the boot menu and boot just fine. Blendos doesn't show up. I've reinstalled several times and nothing.

    Using a NAS as a primary storage location

    Hi all, I'm testing out different distros and I'm giving them just 20gbs for the main install partition, with the aim to have everything stored on the NAS. Is there recommended way to do this? I'm thinking just making a symlink to a location on my NAS but I'm concerned that'll cause some unforeseen complications. Would really appreciate any advice!

    The "Liquid Tree" is Very Cool Actually youtu.be

    Scientists in Belgrade came up with the idea of "planting" large tanks of water and algae in places where trees can't grow. The tanks are 10-50x more efficient than a normal tree for the space it takes up and is in general highly sustainable, even creating excellent fertilizer in the process. You can skip about halfway through the video for the actual information about them.

    Linux beginner, want to install OS on my NAS

    Hi all, I'm currently experimenting with different distros using virtualbox. My set up is Workstation PC - QNAP TB to 10g NIC - 10g switch - Synology 1621+ NAS. The connection between the NAS and the PC is equal to about a gen 3 SSD. I do see one particular place where there may be an issue: the qnap adapter needs drivers of some sort to able to act as a nic. But maybe there's a way to still tell my bios to boot into my nas? or maybe I could make a little partition that only activates the nic and from there boot into the nas? I also can just connect a 2.5g directly between my computer and nas, but that would end up being really slow, slower than many of the single hard drives I have in my nas. What I'd like to do is run my chosen distro(s) from my PC but have them install on the NAS itself. Essentially I'll all the storage for the OS on the NAS, but have access to my workstation's more performant ram, cpu and GPU. Is this possible? Also, I'm looking at nobara, endeavour, mint, mx linux. May look into opensuse and alpine at some point as well. Primary purpose will be for general browsing/research and programming. Some gaming if it's possible. my long term goal is, once gaming is stable enough on linux, switch entirely over to linux and only use windows for games/media creation/music production that can't be done on linux, but daily drive linux.

    workspaces like vivaldi?

    Hey everyone. I'm just migrating to floorp (first time maining firefox in 15 years) and I'm wondering if there's any good workspaces extensions. I think I've tried them all, but i've found nothing that let's me handle workspaces across multiple windows the way vivaldi does. Basically what I want is workspaces the way vivaldi handles them. You can create a workspace and add tabs to it. you can select to open a workspace in a new window so when you close the window that workspace is saved and you can reopen it whenever you want. What I've found with the workspace extensions I've tried so far is that when you open a new window, none of your workspaces are saved, so it's like a blank workspace. Floorp has workspaces but it only works for one window at a time. Does anyone have suggestions how I could replicate vivaldi's workspaces functionaltiy without going back to that browser?

    Piggybacking off the selfhosting email post earlier, does anyone have experience self hosting anon addy?

    I'd really like to use the service and in fact I wish I'd been using it forever. But I want to do it right and self host it. It's just, maybe the most complicated thing I've ever seen. Does it require self hosting your own email server as well? If you already own a domain, does that make the process easier? is Anon Addy the only service like this? Also I'd love to integrate with bitwarden, so when I create a new account for some website, I can automatically create a new email address. (idk if there's any reason to do this, just think it could be cool) To piggyback further, I've been wondering if having my own domain would help me get around my double nat issue not allowing me to make reverse proxies. Thanks in advance to the community! Edit: I think I have a solution! Bitwarden actually [has these integrations](https://bitwarden.com/help/generator/#tab-forward-email-3Uj911RtQsJD9OAhUuoKrz) already and it's relatively new. duckduck go just doesn't work. I tried forwardemail and that site is filled with dark patterns so you think the free account is worth a damn until you're already invested time into setting it up. At the last minute it tells you you can't use it with bitwarden on the free account. The others are at least up front about their pricing. forwardemail.net doesn't even have a pricing page. Sending emails from the masked addresses is also paywalled. pretty much all functionality on forwardemail.net is paywalled, but they hide it from you the best they can, so fuck that company. I spoke too soon. There's no option that isn't paid. So I guess back to self hosting anonaddy Edit: I finally got duckduckgo email working with bitwarden integration. It now generates a random email for me automatically! **Edit edit: Found a good solution:** There are two solid solutions I think for this problem: Bitwarden + SimpleLogin integration. Ends up being about $40/year. The SimpleLogin integration is more limited as it just generates a generic hash. Pass gives you more flexibility - it adds the domain followed by a hash. It's cheaper by a few bucks if you pay per year. or Proton Pass ($48/year, or $36/year if paying for 2 years, or if you have proton unlimited ($8/mo), it's included What' nice is that the email address alias generator is built in and has a lot more options. It's cheaper if you pay for 2 years or already have proton unlimited. Both have stellar track records.

    Some *real* benchmarks on Bun (compared with Node) -- It only wins *sometimes*, but it's mostly a fail www.youtube.com

    [Piped](https://piped.kavin.rocks/watch?v=EVMMoDWN79E) Great watch but to summarize: * Bun beats Node/Yarn for package installation * Somewhat better API/DX in some ways. * Loses poorly in testing performance * Tons of incompatibility issues/performance issues in other areas. General summary: Just don't use Bun yet, seems like it needs some more time in the oven.

    connection/certificate errors from DSM. Package center, QC, and much more unavailable. (Synology ds1621+)

    ## Update (FIXED) a dev from synology fixed it by running 'update-ca-certificates.sh' from the /etc/ssl/certs folder as root. Not sure if he somehow moved that file into my nas manually if that's included functionality. either way it was a really simple fix that only took them like 3 weeks to address. ---- Original post ----- A couple days ago I randomly received this notification email: "System is busy and unable to deliver the diagnostic data. Please try again later." there's no info in the body. When I received the email I checked my DSM dashboard and it was unreachable, but my docker ccontainers were still running and I was able to SSH to the machine. I tried to reset it and it didn't reset for around 20 minutes (i think maybe something to do with virtual machine manager because after logging back in and restarting, this was holding up the restart process). I restarted by holding it down until it powered down and started up again It has been exhibiting odd behavior: I cannot access the package manager, Security advisor, quickconnect, support center, push service under notifications, sign in on the notification > email page on control panel, it does nothing, synology account section of the control panel, active insight, DSM update, all are giving me errors that imply some broken connection, certificate, or networking issue. I tried to update a docker container and I can't access the registry. It's giving me an error: "Error response from daemon: Get "https://registry-1.docker.io/v2/": x509: certificate signed by unknown authority" Trying to access synology photos from my phone also gives an invalid certificate error I have made no changes to my router or system or anything. I can ping all the services here from SSH: https://kb.synology.com/en-global/DSM/tutorial/What_websites_does_Synology_NAS_connect_to_when_running_services_or_updating_software I'm worried that I somehow got attacked. I've been trying to figure out how to connect to this thing with my double nat situation which has made it impossible to access from outside without tailscale. I just don't understand what's happening. My worst fear is that maybe someone hacked in and modified my dsm install to mess with it or something. IDK. I reached out to synology support a couple days ago but they responded with the most generic tech support questions: > > you attempted to access DSM using various devices or web browsers? Are there any indications of hardware-related issues? > > Are there any third-party applications or packages installed on your Synology device that might be affecting its performance? > > Can you access the Synology device's interface directly, or is the problem limited to accessing DSM? > > Have you encountered any recent power outages or disruptions that might have influenced the current situation? > > I saw on [this thread](https://www.synoforum.com/threads/ds-220-connection-failed-please-check-your-internet-connection.10327/page-2#posts) some people having errors that sound very similar but they all got them resolved around the same time

You don't feel like a bull in a chinashop like you do in logseq or even siyuan to a degree. That said, logseq still wins in one very small but *very* important department, and that's swiping to adjust indentation. may seem small but if indentation is buried behind several menus, it's just painful when your'e in the middle of jotting down some important notes. That said logseq mobile is broken (at least for me) > > - ### Collaboration: no one wins, though anytype is focusing on this > > - Most likely will have to choose another program, probably something that isn't offline first. For this there are a million great options > > - ### Best overall: Anytype. > > - Being able to create a type is awesome. Then having multiple templates off that type, and "collections/sets" to allow organizing lists of those projects with fairly strong filters and sorting is great. This ability, while exists on logseq, requires knowledge of some programming languages. I think called datalog. In SiYuan I don't believe it's possible. One quick sidenote about SiYuan though, it's a fantastic app and the developers/maintainers work at a blinding pace. One time I made a comment about the line spacing on their english forum, liuyun.io, and the developer answered within a few minutes stating that it was already fixed and in the upcoming version. Anything said about SiYuan is liable to change at a moment's notice (but in a good way!) > > - ### Best for early/initial braindump: Logseq > > - With its infinite outliner, logseq is fantastic for braindumping quick and dirty prototypes to be fleshed out more fully in another PKMS. I definitely don't think Logseq is the best for projects, but it's definitely not worthlesss > > - ### Best price: Anytype (for now). Anytype is free. > > - It will be free forever if you decide to selfhost. They will almost certainly add paid plan to use their synving infrastructure (which they implemented brand new for the work they're going to do on collaboration soon) > > - ### Privacy: Logseq, Anytype. > > - Both can avoid the company's servers completely if you set it up that way. Anytype will required self hosting which for now is not very good because to use the mobile ios app selfhosted, you need to compile through xcode and sideload it onto your device...yeah that's a blocker. Logseq is possible to avoid completely their servers, but it's a worse experience. it's hard to set up. And I believe that their syncing is locked to allow them to eventually offer a premium plan. Anytype's syncing mechanism is up on their github right now. >
