Personally I don't trust myself with self-hosting something as important as photos. It would probably be fine, but I'm willing to pay for someone else to manage the infrastructure.

Very happy Ente user here! It's a great alternative to Google Photos and Immich (since I think photos are too important to self-host).

They have an easy guide for migrating from Google Photos (basically they can import a Takeout export directly).

I've got it installed on my phone with automatic backups enabled. It had no issues with duplicates from both Takeout and the existing photos on my phone. (I even did the upload twice due to running out of space the first time, and there were no dupes). The app has a pretty similar design to Google Photos, so it feels familiar. It also supports Google's version of "live photos".

You can create links to share albums or individual photos, and you can also add people to your plan.

I enabled the local machine learning analysis and, while it's not perfect, it does make for a pretty nice searching experience.

Thank you!

Thank you!

Keep in mind that his private communications have leaked. He talked about what a monster Trump is for making immigrants feel unwelcome and unsafe.

Source for this?

I think people are talking about that because it's one of the criticisms against Biden in the first debate. Now Trump is the old, tired, crazy man who shouldn't be in this race, never mind running the country.

Preach! I need all my keyboard shortcuts, dammit.

I recommend listening to The Dollop episode about the New York Oysters. It's crazy (as are most of their episodes!).

Thank you! God the official site is so bad.

That looks like Thunder! You should check out the latest version; it has an improved Block Management page.

I prefer just about every third-party UI to the official one...

Don't forget Playlet for Roku!

• Windows: FreeTube
• Android: NewPipe
• Roku: Playlet

The trifecta!

It was the famous interview where they asked her why Americans couldn't find the United States on a map. It went viral at the time.

EDIT: Someone posted the video: https://lemmy.world/comment/12139126

Admittedly one of the benefits of Reddit was the extensive modding community that kept on top of things like this. In some news communities they would remove duplicate stories, even from different sources, for exactly the reasons you mentioned. Of course they could be overzealous too. :)

Thank you, I missed that!

Is my client bugging or is this comment empty?

is anyone aware of how to properly link comments on lemmy?

As far as I know, there is no way right now. There's some discussion of having a more agnostic identifier here, but seemingly no movement yet.

The best you can get right now is using an extension like Instance Assistant for Lemmy, but that only helps you, not the person you're responding to.

That said, if you use a mobile app (I use Thunder) it will usually handle post/comment links in-app, so it doesn't matter what instance they link to.
