I’ve been running my own, it’s mostly automated now. I started a yacy instance as well so not only am I aggregating bigger websites, I’m including the sites I crawled myself and the other sites available on yacy through it’s huge p2p search functionality. In this little way, I’m trying to make sure my search isn’t totally dominated by corporate search.
Tbh, yacy is 1000x harder to keep running than searxng.
Been picking up hot wheels games for my son recently. The monster truck game just came up for 70% off, putting it right in the zone I’m willing to pay.
I’m amenable to luanti with voxelibre.
Though I don’t like the rebranding. Luanti sounds like a product you’d hear about in a drug commercial. “Side effects of luanti may include chronic flatulence, erectile dysfunction, and death”
Honestly, I consider the Japanese ecosystem to be very healthy. You have low risk webnovels, turn them into higher risk novels, higher risk manga, higher risk anime, and finally highest risk movies and video games. In this way, new blood is always entering the ecosystem, compared to the stagnant Western ecosystem which lacks a low and medium tier to test risks.
That’ll be one hundred and fifty dollars, please.
Big question is: how many of us are funding foss projects?
It isn’t difficult, and with how popular some are, it wouldn’t be long before the projects could hire one or more full time devs at good rates.
I support a few big projects I use every month through liberapay.
This really seems like an AI generated article to, in a very complicated way, describe of what was until fairly recently just the status quo.
Until fairly recently, if you had network attached storage you could just play the media off of the network storage. That’s just how it worked. People playing media through the command line is something people have been doing for decades. What happened later was the introduction of services like jellyfin that would streamline the process.
Overall, other than the extremely hyperbolic language promising to completely change your life by letting you do things the way that they were done decades ago, it reads like “you may not like cars, but let me introduce you to an amazing new technology known as walking” presented without any irony.
Always has been.
Even if you like who’s in charge right now, they could change how they act or they could be replaced.
They could shut us down or do a lot of things, but it’s harder to break 10,000 servers than one.
