I’d love too if I knew how to do that. I still have lots of things to learn and do before putting my toes on these waters, but I’m glad you showed some interest even to mention an integration with other tools. Thanks for that.

I’m here to find what people think about the project and I’ve found pretty interesting to see their reactions and yours is one of them

haha that’s ok bro, have you rant. I’m a Mr. complainer myself. Although, I’ve been trying really hard lately to avoid “unnecessary or premature criticism” and this shit is one of the hardest things I’ve ever tried. Regarding the security concerns, I absolutely agree with you that this is top priority and mandatory. That’s why we set testing environments for this type of things, right? There’s a common feeling that I’ve noticed from the tech community regarding the usage of AI that to me is similar to “musicians vs DJs” or “classical musicians vs Jazz”, I’m sorry if this analogy isn’t the best one, but these are the communities that I’m more familiar with. Some are really opened, others are absolutely against and concerned (rightly so to some degree) and others fall in the middle. I think what we’re experiencing is more of a huge paradigm change, a clash of personalities and the natural fear of the unknown and changes. Maybe the most excited people are really the ones who knows very little and have no idea of the negative potential of these tools or perhaps the so skeptical ones are those who don’t know yet how to reconcile this shift and what to make out it. Who knows? I’ll end up with my rant too… I hate the “enshitification” of the internet content because of AI lol. I’ve read somewhere that the AI text have surpassed the human generate one in the web :,( Lots of people have claimed that my comments “look like AI”… as if they would be that good at identifying it anyways. I’m not a bot by the way. I just found that Lemmy feels more genuine than Reddit (let’s leave this rant to another time).

Peace bro!

Haha, don’t worry, brother. I hardly ever get defensive, especially in the virtual world. We’re good.

I did start using Portainer and I’m continuing with it—I like it very much. Most of my apps are isolated in a dedicated LXC. I know it might sound counterproductive or even exaggerated, but I like it that way. I had a basic bash script that would text me whenever a new version of Jellyfin was available so I could check it out and update it. I started wondering how annoying it would be to copy that script for every app… so why not centralize it?

That’s when I thought, “Maybe I could use AI and see if it can build a simple app.” It was more about having fun with the tool and seeing what I could do without knowing much. Besides all the valid technical critiques, I think the end result was pretty decent and cool. It kind of allowed me to create something I could only dream of or go bankrupt paying someone to build. I’m sure there are other applications from more reputable sources that do the same, but I think the feeling of bringing an idea into reality is a really good one. Maybe now I can rethink about how to structure a new project, how to avoid some pitfalls and create something even more useful… or at least create a proof of concept so someone else can do it properly. Let’s keep in touch

Funny enough, teaching is my area of expertise, so I think I get where you’re coming from. But I also think it’s important to remember that there are a ton of ways to learn, and at the end of the day, only the person learning knows how deep they want to go with a given topic. That comment, “We aren’t your teachers, and what you need is instruction,” kinda comes off as condescending, but maybe I’m just reading it wrong. “We” means a lot of people, but not everyone.

I’m sure the books you suggested are great for building the basics, but assuming what someone’s willing to do or not just based on a quick post doesn’t really take the full picture into account. It’s like drawing. You don’t need to be the next Da Vinci just because you enjoy it. You can have fun, draw simple stuff, and share it with people. You might not end up in a museum, but that’s totally fine. Not everyone needs to be an expert to enjoy what they do. However, learning the basics definitely helps to draw better, right?

Totally agree with that. I was trying to keep things as simple as possible, but there was always a new thing to try. I’m currently not implementing anything new, just focusing on enhancing what is already there.

Sounds great, I’ve just released a small update after some feedback here. There’s still a lot to be done, but let me know what you think once you test it.

That’s pretty cool, I’ve never heard about newreleases.io I might take a look at it later. Thanks

That’s actually a good idea. I was thinking about getting the features “working” as intended. I’ll give it a try to the “explain back” method and see how it goes. Thanks

I hate bots, for real… I kind of miss the old days of internet where we could jump in a forum or any community to talk and connect with people. But I kind of get the point of building mechanisms to reduce the “bots infestation”. Things are definitely more complex to visually and/or auditory impaired people. But at least, Lemmy isn’t as annoying as Reddit and people sound genuine.
