Actually with a Synology NAS you don’t need Plex, they have a built in equivalent called DS Video with apps for Apple TV, iOS, Android, etc!
I’ve had an Nvidia shield in the past as well and it works reasonably well, but the video experience is definitely better on the Apple TV. The Android boxes make more sense if you want a place to install emulators that also occasionally streams.
Keep your Apple TV and use it as a streaming client for whatever you stand up on the backend. Personally I have a Synology NAS that I love and I use the net to get all my content. Use the net. 😉
It’s more than slight! I ran a 3090 in an eGPU for a while and it lost around 40% of performance compared to when it was in my case.
Yea, what is the expected use in this case?
Cool, then I’m dropping GM from my list of cars that I’ll buy or rent. CarPlay is a must have in 2023, just like a backup camera. Literally nobody wants your shitty car OS thing, it’s guaranteed to be way worse than iOS and Android.
Seems like this ought to be a dealbreaker for many.
I doubt it’s about paying Apple or Google, so um much as their ability to extort car owners to pay them. Nobody in their right mind will buy the $10/month Bullshit Subscription ™ from GM when they can just plug in their phone and use Waze.
Edit: seems Apple doesnt charge automakers so it’s definitely about extorting you for money.
Well, none. One assumes the aspiration is to implement Cocoa, to allow GUI apps to run.

I’m not sure I have an opinion, honestly. They’re the largest instance at least from the perspective of communities followed from federate.cc, we have more people subscribed to stuff @lemmy.world than anywhere else. I can tell they’re having technical issues due to the scale of the instance, given the frequent downtime and slow responsiveness of the website. I think this is more Lemmy’s fault than theirs.
But I too don’t know much about its governance or policies. We’ve yet to have any issue with one of our members misbehaving, so I haven’t run up against the administration of any other instance.
Instance operator here! I self-host a small Lemmy instance for developers and tech savvy folks.
The short version is that it totally depends on your home instance, so it’s too general to reason about, really. Lemmy itself doesn’t keep track of your IP, but there are move moving parts than that, like the reverse proxy, potentially CDN/object store, potentially web server…. etc. That’s all up to the instance, and the admins are capable of tweaking that stuff to log or not as they see fit.
It’s worth noting that some jurisdictions legally require server operators to keep this data.
So TLDR - if you trust your instance administrators, and the country and state/province they host it in, then maybe not. Otherwise, assume you are not anonymous on Lemmy.
Fair, although I personally use Safari on macOS/iOS and Firefox on Windows/Linux. If you’re interested, it’s fairly easy to sync between them with https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/addon/icloud-bookmarks/.
Because Safari is chock fill of strong privacy features, just like Firefox. It’s a very good browser, if you’re using Apple devices, especially with the forthcoming OS updates.
Apple may be a greedy corporation, however, as they make their money selling you expensive hardware and a premium experience, they are not incentivised to monetise user data.
Google has the opposite incentive given they make money at all from Chrome or Android, other than advertising. Arguably they barely make any money at all, other than advising… so of course they’ll track you.
Ridiculous. Time to switch to Safari or Firefox, folks.
Anyone know if this work is tracked anywhere? I’m suddenly really suspicious of continuing to run my own instance.
Glad you found it helpful!
I really hate this trend of making absolutely everything a web view / Electron.
I, for one, can’t wait to read Apricot bar code architecture
Found the Romanian! 😁
