You mean worse?

TBF, that should be the conclusion in all contexts where “AI” are cconcerned.

Have you tried the Wayback machine?

Right, it was the local filesharing part (like at a W/LAN party) that I wanted to recommend pirate box for, so I overlooked the other functions 🙂

Either way, bookmarked your GH repo for future reference, excellent project!

Oh hey, this is just what I was looking for recently! I wanted to recommend PirateBox to another thread on here, but realised it was eol’ed six years back. This is pretty much similar usage, right?

Even simpler, I love it! 👍

Simplest possible solution, Occam’s Inventory 😄

I use markdown extensively, but I’m honestly not fond of its tables function (which I assume you use for this purpose?). It works, but it’s a bit static in my experience. Do you run up against the same, or is it actually an advantage in your use case?

Agreed, Nextcloud has gone from a lean little personal cloud to a hulking enterprise hub.

If you’re after something that’ll just sync your files between devices, try Syncthing. If you need files available online, maybe something like filestash or, like somebody else suggested, SFTPgo.

There are also tiny, lean calendar and contact server apps out there if you decide you need those. After self hosting NC for years I’m really happy spreading out the tasks over dedicated services rather than having all my eggs in one basket.

I’d completely forgotten about those. Can we bring back “the right to air gap”?

+1 re WiFi. As I recall, with older laptops you may have to dig around to find some WiFi drivers for Debian — but they’re most likely there, just not in the default repo.

Well, you can use/link a mastodon account if you already have one.

Yeah, that’s what I did. I meant the feature set gave me more possibilities than I could handle 😄

According to their documentation:

login with other Fediverse identity and import social graph

• supported servers: Mastodon/Pleroma/Firefish/GoToSocial/Pixelfed/friendica/Takahē

It’s pretty cool in that it allows cataloguing more media types than just books, so that’s a leg up over Bookwyrm. IIRC it also pulls item information from relevant (open API) databases, so you get the synopsis etc filled in?

For me starting a new account that also made it kind of overwhelming. I’ve never catalogued my books anywhere, so the possibility of doing that, and input watched film, TV shows, etc — suddenly my media habits turned into a bit of a chore 🙂

Oh, never actually tried Bookwyrm, but I’d expected it would have a social aspect as well? That seems like a lost opportunity.

[Edited to add:] Have you had a look at NeoDb? Also a tracker, but apparently with more social aspects —

users can share their collections, publish microblogs, and engage with others in the Fediverse

I only had superficial experience with NeoDb, so can’t say with certainty if a Lemmy community and threads for individual books may be better for you.

Scratching my head over this as well. Yes, it might diminish casual discovery uptake that the app isn’t in the Play Store, but for this target group I think most users would be comfortable downloading the app from Fdroid.

The larger issue with closing down the entire project including notification servers(!?) is probably a tell that there have been other factors weighing on the developer?

Either way, if the source code is openly available maybe others will pick up development in a way that isn’t as vulnerable to corporate policy changes.

Nope. The actual purpose functionality seems unclear to me.

Edited.

Plume isn’t currently actively maintained, unfortunately. It’s right below the fold of the page you linked 😞

As for customisability, I think writefreely has some different themes to choose from, they’re just hidden away in the docs or on github.

Advertisers can stake their PRE [crypto tokens] to a keyword, and whichever advertiser stakes the most tokens will have its ads displayed when a user searches on the term selected. Advertisers confer the most external value on PRE, so their success is very important to the ecosystem.

So crypto currency and advertising? Hard pass.

Ah, makes sense!

As in a folder of text files? Because that’s what I’m doing. Syncing across devices with Syncthing and editing/adding files with whatever markdown editor works best in each platform.

I’ve tried LocalSend for this, but I usually end up using more reliable ways like Syncthing (not instantly transfered, but at a decent speed) or sending myself the file on Element for Matrix (as good as instantaneous).
