Does Proton count as a temporary email?

Does Proton count as a temporary email? - Lemmy.World

I have a friend who is trying to set up an account on Lemmy, but they don’t like to use their real email, so they use aliases from Proton. Are such aliases allowed for making accounts on Lemmy.World?

What is the one year message limit on the Matrix server?

What is the one year message limit on the Matrix server? - Lemmy.World

I have read in the TOS for the Matrix server that all messages are deleted after one year. If I am talking with someone, does that mean that messages that are older than a year are deleted on my side, or both sides of the conversation? What if the chat is E2EE? If I am using a device that is signed in and has seen old messages, are they removed from that device too?

Bot vs Bridge vs Appservice vs Integration?

Bot vs Bridge vs Appservice vs Integration? - Lemmy.World

I have heard these words used a lot in Matrix documentation. Here’s what I think they mean: * Bot: Like a Discord or Slack bot, can be run off of a normal account on a homeserver (no homeserver hosting required) * Bridge: Connects Matrix and another messaging service, self-hosted homeserver seems to be required * Integration: Another name for a Bot, or is it something displayed in Matrix clients (ex: Element has n Etherpad integration)??? * Appservice: A better bot??? There’s also the whole language around bridges (puppeting, plumbing, etc.), but that’s for another question.

How can I migrate saves/states from Delta to Lemuroid/Retroarch (maybe) of Gameboy games?

How can I migrate saves/states from Delta to Lemuroid/Retroarch (maybe) of Gameboy games? - Lemmy.World

I have been using Delta on iOS for my Gameboy gaming, and I have now moved to Android and am now trying to use Lemuroid. It doesn’t accept Delta’s .sav files, and instead uses .gb.slot1/.gb.slot2/etc. files. Is there a way to convert between them?

Is there a way to export a Docker container's configuration?

Is there a way to export a Docker container's configuration? - Lemmy.World

I have a NAS where I tested to see if some apps could run on it without a server. They overloaded the CPU, so I am now wanting to move them over to a more powerful workstation. I’m used to Compose files/configs, but it seems that my NAS uses plain Docker. Is there a way to extract the configs/long terminal setup commands? I have Portainer installed, if that makes it easier.

SMB, FTP, or NFS for NAS + server?

https://lemmy.world/post/16159990

SMB, FTP, or NFS for NAS + server? - Lemmy.World

I am running a NAS that needs to connect to a server (the NAS isn’t powerful enough). I also need to connect my NAS to a Windows, Mac, and Linux device (Linux being the most important, then Mac, then Windows). Out of SMB, FTP, and NFS, which one would be the best, quickest, and most secure for my situation? My NAS supports multiple sharing protocols, but I don’t want to deal with mixed up permissions and conflicts later on.

Are the following NAS options okay for live transcoding?

Are the following NAS options okay for live transcoding? - Lemmy.World

I am setting up a new Jellyfin server, and I am looking at using a NAS to host it through Docker. However, I don’t want to make the mistake of forgetting about the power needed for live transcoding (MKV 480p -> MP4 (I haven’t set up a good conversion method yet)). Are any of the following NAS options okay for standalone Jellyfin? If not, are there any cheap (CAD$200/USD$150 max) NUCs/computers/servers that are good for live transcoding? - Asustor Drivestor 4 AS1104T - Asustor Drivestor 4 Pro AS3304T - Asustor Drivestor 4 Pro Gen2 AS3304T v2 - Synology DS423

What's a good NAS and server system under CAD$900 (USD$658)?

What's a good NAS and server system under CAD$900 (USD$658)? - Lemmy.World

I am currently using an old laptop (circa 2015) with a 250GB SSD in it, and 4GB of RAM. It runs Fedora 39 Server, and only hosts a Jellyfin instance through Docker right now (though I want to use Nextcloud later too). There is only 15GB of storage left on it, and the CPU is constantly overloaded (due to forced transcoding). I happen to have a lot of 500GB 3.5" HDDs laying around, and I want to use them in RAID 5. What hardware would be good for having 4 HDDs, and running Jellyfin and Nextcloud in Docker? I’m okay with either having just a 4-bay NAS (as long as it can handle transcoding (MKV 480p -> MP4)), or having a 4-bay NAS and a server/computer/NUC. I only have a budget of CAD$900 (USD$658 as of writing), but I am willing to go to CAD$1000 if absolutely necessary.

Should I keep paying for Proton?

https://lemmy.world/post/15113222

Should I keep paying for Proton? - Lemmy.World

I moved over to Proton from Google because I liked the idea of having an alias for each service. After two months and a Mail Plus trial, I now pay for Proton Unlimited. I use Mail (due to alias linking), Calendar, and Pass often. I don’t really use VPN that much (although it is useful sometimes), and Drive is just too slow. I didn’t have any issues with Google, and I liked using Gmail and Calendar. Proton also doesn’t have watch apps, so I have to add my calendars through iCal to Google Calendar for my watch. It feels to me like I’m just overpaying now. Should I move back to Google for mail and calendar? I’m probably going to keep Pass (it seems just a bit too expensive compared to Bitwarden, though).

Is it that difficult to run Mastodon over Docker?

https://lemmy.world/post/14835855

Is it that difficult to run Mastodon over Docker? - Lemmy.World

I am used to simple things running on Docker (Jellyfin, Nextcloud, etc.) I am looking at running my own personal Mastodon instance (maybe share it with a few friends and family), but I like using Docker. Looking at install guides, the steps required seem to be much harder than just editing docker-compose.yml and running the container. Is it actually that difficult to set up Mastodon, or is there a better guide? I can’t just use Yunohost/CasaOS because I am using a VPS to host this.
