A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

We are pleased to announce the first release candidate preview release of Jellyfin 10.11.0!

This is a preview release, intended for those interested in testing 10.11.0 before it's final public release. We welcome testers to help find as many bugs as we can before the final release.

As always, please ensure you stop your Jellyfin server and take a full backup before upgrading!

WIP release notes: https://notes.jellyfin.org/v10.11.0_features

This is the first release that uses the new EF Core database mapper. If you'd like to help test this release, please remember to remove all plugins to make debugging logs as easy as possible.

I'm serious, there's so much lazy posting on Lemmy regarding software releases.

  • no mention of what the software is or does ✔️
  • no mention of what's interesting about the software or this release. ✔️

Jellyfin is quite a big name, but still, the pattern is clear.

I have to admit, it's something I'd like to see done a bit better (not that I'd be the one posting about it typically)

"Crocoslut version 12 released!"

Uh... great?

Though sometimes you go to the website and it's not much better.

Dude yes. Among my comments you'll see that I ranted about this for a few days in the comments of another post. That's even worse, when you can't even find out for yourself.

Crocoslut really started going downhill after the license change and conversion to nodejs in v9.

Crocoslut is yesterday. AlligatorAlly is the more friendly fork!

We could have a tag for things like this (if tags are a thing on lemmy) or a required prefix, such as "Software release: ".

I do like to see an announcement for things I use and have slow release schedule.
