  • The problem is that there isn’t really anywhere to Exodus to. I already know people here on Lemmy are going to say Matrix but that’s just not an option. It’s trash, the protocol was designed by idiot neck beards that have never heard the term UX. Pretty much everything was done in a way that while technically speaking is efficient makes it unbelievably tedious to actually use and in some cases just outright annoying ensuring that users will never want to use it. Most recent example is forcing device verification, it is technically correct, it is better from a security standpoint it is better from a verifiability standpoint. But for the average user who could not give less of a shit about that it is nothing more than something that pisses them off and annoys them every single time they open the application because despite the fact that they should be remembering at least in my testing it almost never does and I have to put in my stupid key every single God damn time especially if I’m using it in the browser.

    Teamspeakers trying to rebuild itself to be more Discord like but it’s still in early beta and not at all ready for it so that’s not an option, and everything else is pretty much either just as shit or just as likely to implement this tomorrow as Discord




  • It’s because people lack the ability to subjectively look at all possible aspects of life. They latch on to one thing that’s better and say that means the entire country is better. For example China objectively has better public transportation and infrastructure around things like internet and cellular despite also being an absolutely massive land mass. Pretty much anywhere has objectively better health care than the USA. So if those things have been causing them grief lately in their life they are going to latch on to that and declare that the country that has the better that is better in general even if there are other aspects not related to those subjects that would ultimately make life much worse





  • Was surprised to see this here. But yes absolutely, they are expensive don’t get me wrong. But they are worth it. Their shit just works, i have their washer and heat pump dryer, dishwasher, and CX1 canister vacuum. Each are the best version of that thing I’ve ever used. Dishwasher will clean anything no rinse/soak needed even for baked on pasta or cheese, vacuum is powerful but also shockingly quiet, dryer sips power (700w avg load) but dries everything just fine.

    Had em for the years now, i am NOT gentle with the vacuum i drag it outside to clean the car and other various things it’s not really for, toss it around use it as a footstool sometimes and it shows no signs of the wear. You get what you pay for with them




  • I mean it WOULD work you would just need a von on every device you wanted to use.

    The REAL answer is never host them DIRECTLY, always use a reverse proxy like nginx. Many projects (i believe jellyfin is one of them) explicitly recommend this for better security. Which it looks like you did so congrats

    For extra bonus points you can setup nginx to run as a non privileged user and use iptables to forward the lower ports (80/443). A pain but closes out a large chunk of nginx as a risk.
