It's actually amusing. It's a sub for capturing genuine, or thoughtful, or informative replies from people with nearly pornographic names, like RimJobSteve.

Yeah I don't understand why some subs didn't migrate to a Lemmy instance and then shut the sun down. Like, antiwork and workreform are primed to be a federated community out of billionaires control...

I think we might see more migration after the Reddit apps die on July 1st

I'm in it for the long haul, the first federated service I've used that felt like a true replacement for it's centralized counterpart.

I wouldnt use .local as that's also used by apples Bonjour service if I recall correctly. I use .internal which Google and Facebook currently use for microservice stuff. So the odds it ever becomes a tld are almost null.

My switch to ff coincided with on boarding to Lemmy. Id love to attempt to host my own sync server at some point.

I think this could lead to better stability over time and less over head. One thing that was no fun to discover was, when my instance was down, I couldn't auth with my account to browse other instances.

The thing I'm not sure about though is, why would you only run an auth only instance and what incentives do the users have to join yours over someone else's?

That's a very specific but relevant tip!

Thanks for the info!

It's so funny because you can watch the show on the pokemon app but it has the same issue. The seasons are broken up weird, they have weird names. I think they have indigo league and orange islands and that's it. But it's not a "streaming service" by any stretch.

I'll look into jellyfin. I might just try and run it off my PC for now until I have a device I can chuck into my rack.

Haha this comment is keeping it real. That's a good point. I've never looked into a plexshare before. I'll have to look it up.

I think I salvaged like 6 of them. I'd have to dig them out of a box for a good count.

This is true... I have a feeling my PC is pretty power hungry. I'll see how hard it would be to get my PC to WoL. I could have it boot up on a schedule and then power off on a schedule.

I can always migrate off it later.
