Title.

The situation is basically this:

• NFS works, it's very fast, keeps the xattrs but if used without Kerberos it's not secure. If used with Kerberos it works, but has a ticket that expires and forces me to reenter the credentials frequently in order to use it. If there was a way to use NFS with Kerberos and save the credentials NFS would be the perfect solution.

• Samba works fine too, also keeps the xattrs but I had some troubles with filenames (mainly with some special characters, emoji, etc). Besides, as both my server and my clients run Linux I prefer to avoid it if I have the choice.

• sshfs would be the natural choice, not as fast as NFS but it's pretty secure, I already use it in most of my network shares but I just can't find a way to make it preserve the files xattrs.

Do you guys have any suggestions or maybe any other options that I might use?

Hello all,

A couple of questions about Cantata.

It hasn't been developed for a while now. Will it eventually just stop working or there's any way to at least port it to qt6, without new features, just keeping the basic functionality?

I have the habit of star most of the songs I listen to, so that it's become easier to, for example, create smart playlists. In the case I can use Cantata no more is it possible to export somehow this data? Let's say that it stops working and I switch to something else (say, Navidrome or some equivalent). Will I be able to export my preferences, stars, playlists, favorites, etc?

As title says.

I've followed this guide, everything is working as desired but I got myself thinking if it'd be possible in the future to add a second nvme (I have a 1 TB nvme now). I've googled a little but all that I found so far apparently was about expanding the very same drive used in the installation, not adding a second one.

Could anyone more experienced tell me if that's is possible in this context and, if so, point me in the right direction?

Hello, all. Does Boost has any option to save the position I'm currently in? It's pretty annoying when I'm reading some post, need to switch apps and when come back to Boost it just goes all up to the top again.

In fact I know it's possible because I've seen this feature in other Lemmy apps, so I imagined Boost already had and I was just missing some further configuration?

Not sure if that's the right place to ask, but I used to use Boost for Reddit and I was able to follow people (I don't know if this was a Reddit or a Boost feature).

Is it possible to follow users in Lemmy? The only options I see are to either block or msg user.

I usually copy the links of the attached files I want and then use the corresponding tool to download them (gallery-dl, yt-dlp, whatever).

I noticed that there's an option "Copy Permalink" on the menu. The thing is this option links to the post itself (something like https://lemmy.world/post/1631662, for example), which doesn't work when there are external files attached to the post (files from Reddit, Youtube, etc). So that I have to necessarily go the post and only then I'll have the desired link.

Would it be possible to add an option "Copy Link" to the menu which links to the attached data and not the permanent post? It would be much appreciated.
