For those that want an RTS game that doesn't require a high APM, I'd recommend Supreme Commander Forged Alliance (FAF) and the Sins of a Solar Empire Games (which requires an even lower APM).

I know there are different use cases for each, but generally do people prefer self hosted nextcloud, proton docs, or libre office?

Are they on Deezer? If so, look into deemix-gui.

[-] gccalvin@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago

Deezer (paid for flac - lossless files) + Deemix-gui + Jellyfin + Symfonium works quite well. Though you need to have a media server, so not exactly a drop-in replacement.

I don't own P3 Reloaded, but is this sort of like the additional content that usually comes in Persona 4 Golden and Persona 5 Royal? Shouldn't this have been included in the P3 Reloaded release?

My main point was that if there's one subreddit that should of migrated fully to lemmy... it would be them. Practice what you preach. Granted they are probably one of the larger communities here on lemmy.

Meanwhile.. At r/selfhosted...

Usually, I'd aim for the cloud environments for public resources (serving more than like 20 people), as the traffic won't be hitting your home network.

Additionally, selfhosting a public service like Lemmy on your home environment probably wouldn't have the same uptime or reliability, as I only have one strong ISP signal, and no backup generator.

However, pricing wise, selfhosting at home is much cheaper for the processing power you get.

I think that is more complicated, as the channels need to generate revenue. Additionally, videos take up much more storage, and there is no option to select an instance like Lemmy. I only see options to selfhost.

If you register a domain with Cloudflare or Route 53, and that service goes down, do your records stay active in the DNS servers? What if the DNS servers go down, I know a lot of people use 8.8.8.8, so if Google's server goes down, then DNS fails?

What are the potential point of failures for having your own domain?

Voice channels similar to discord and Teamspeak, where you don't need to "call" the people you want to talk to, you just join the channel. Is this a feature in Matrix?

Thanks.

I was thinking what if we switched to a fediverse Youtube replacement, such as PeerTube. However, I don't think this would work. For one, because there are no ads, there's no money being made, and creators would have to be backed by donations. Not sure how much money that would bring in.

Additionally, the difference between a "creator" on lemmy/subreddit (creating a community) vs a "creator" on youtube (uploads videos) is that I can be a creator without hosting an instance here. Looks like if I wanted to upload videos to PeerTube, I'd need to make my own instance or pay for one. Maybe if there was an option to select an instance just like here on lemmy, but videos take waaayy more disk space and processing to stream than text and a few images. Could be cool to host yourself though.

So if I made my own Lemmy instance, and subscribed to !selfhosted, does that mean if Lemmy.world went down, the !selfhosted community is still up?

I see why they recommend not using SQLite lol.

So if I only run one Matrix/Synapse instance for my private group, does any of the matrix decentalized technology effect me? I would only have one instance, and my users will probably only be connected to my instance. Though if I'm understanding correctly, it sounds like if I subscribed to another instance, all of the chat communication on that entire instance is copied to my server as well? Does this include files? Sounds like it would use a lot of extra disk space.

As r/selfhosted seems to have shutdown due to the reddit api changes (rip), I wanted to see if anyone has worked with these services before?

How do they compare to Discord and how hard is it to maintain, as the setup looks pretty in depth for matrix and synapse. How did you convince your user base to use it over Discord.

I've hosted TS3 for about 8 years and are looking for alternatives, as we have to use Discord for screen sharing.

Thanks!
