Hosting on your own hardware is much more fun though! In most cases it's safer too, you don't really need to worry about much as long as you dont portforward your ssh port & don't run programs as root.
I would say it's cheaper as well, but that depends on how expensive the static ip lease is per month.
The internet is full of bots pounding at your machines to get in. It is only a matter of time until the breach Jellyfin.
If you are talking about brute force attacks for your password, then use a good password.. and something like fail2ban to block ips that are spamming you.
This point doesn't exactly match, but: public services like google auth don't require users use vpns. They have a lot more money to keep stuff secure, but you may see my point.. auth isn't too trivial of a feature to keep secure nowadays. They implement similar protections, something to block spammers and make users have good passwords (if you dont use a good password, you are still vulnerable on any service).
the only thing I miss is the big preview window in the file manager
I may be misinterpreting you, but I think this is a thing with Dolphin. It has a preview pane, which supports all the file types I commonly interact with (F11), which can be dragged to resize bigger or smaller.
I haven't used any preview thing on Windows, which is why I think I may be misunderstanding.
Anyways if you haven't tried Dolphin, maybe it has a solution for you (made by kde project, but I believe it should be installable for any desktop environment).
The problem is unfettered access, not access at all.
Thanks for your reply, I will definitely keep that in mind if Seafile fails to meet any critera moving on, but yeah your last point is also right, it would probably be a big pain to migrate out at this point with all my data for multiple users here.
It seems a lot has been modernising recently, I didn't know they were also using Go, but hopefully they continue with it for new code.
NextCloud being so slow forced me to migrate to Seafile.
Seafile being less one-stop-shoppy made me not use it so much, but whenever I do it is always fast and responsive (unlike nextcloud, where 80% of the time I was looking at the loading indicator). Looking it up now though, it looks like it has a lot of new features I haven't yet tried so I'm probably gonna start using it more now.
Only downside with Seafile is it's deduplication (for me), because it stops me from easily accessing files directly (always gotta use a client). Likely a benefit for most though and I do rarely need to access a file directly on disk, just when I do, it'd be an easy shortcut for whatever I'm doing.
Lol I agree. The value is horrendous when you spec one of their products to have decent storage/ram, but nevertheless can't fault the speed of their ARM chips.
I have no source, but I remember seeing a graph of where iPhones sell and places like China/India were 80% android phones (mostly Samsung I think).
I don't think the asian marketplace puts Apple products in such high regard as the US.
Samsung phones are still premium, I think they appeal more in other countries.
I see what you mean though with 20% of just China being almost the US population, but they are still losing 300m customers.
Hehe that is funny, sadly I think the US is Apples biggest market, so they probably wouldn't want to let go and give up any marketshare.
US usually is the most important market for most (international) companies I believe.
underpowered trash
I hate to say it, but it's actually quite powerful trash that they produce.
Either of us deliberately destroy data: locked up.
Company exec does the same: slap on the butt and a $2 fine.
We should all be on the same playing field!
