Hi faithful selfhosters!

I am looking for a solution that i can host, that will serve some tutorial and demo videos. But what it really needs is:

  • the ability to chop the video into chunks, and labels them with the topic. i think youtube calls them chapters?
  • Being able to upload the transcript, so that the content of the video is searchable too.

I dont think i need to have the transcript timed to the video (i guess that would be subtitles!), but being able to use the transcript and chapters as a method of searching.

I have looked at peertube, but i do not think it has that feature.

cheers

There are definitely a lot of different wine specific grapes. not as familiar with fruit grapes. typically only drink grapes.

Just as a nitpick. I assume you meant foul?

Hi all,

I want to host my own matrix server, so that i can run bridges to all the other (stupid) messaging apps.

I am looking for any advice or experience in choosing which server to run, and if you know of any good tutorials, run throughs, etc. i typically would like a lighter instance, as i expect about 3 users, with 2 of us needing bridging.

  • dendrite
  • synapse
  • conduit
  • construct

and then the addition of bridges, (Signal, WA, Messenger and hopefully SMS).

I am fairly self sufficient when it comes to self hosting, and i run everything on linux, in docker, proxied by Nginx proxy manager. but typically prefer stuff that works more or less out of the box.

Thanks all!

Jurassic Park. I was young and watched it at the cinema. I was limp with terror. On my mother's lap.

I don't remember any nightmares after, but still remember the t-rex and the car scene as particularly terrifying

A clean up would be nice, maybe something where if there are no subscribers, or local user actions on a community (votes, comments) after a while it starts to remove them.

i have just seen that gfycat is shutting down. i love sticking in a GIF, but would love a way to keep and categorise my gifs, and be able to embed/copy them into my banter.

Anyone know of something that could do it?

cheers

well, there are a few things:

  1. using the app to take photos (in a scan sort of mode, where it trims it to be at right angles), really quick and easy, no matter where i am.
  2. remote access - i can view all of my documents where ever i am.
  3. easy & sophisticated search. I have my documents assigned to people (me, wife, child, etc). I also assigned them to things like payslips, tax, shares, legal documents, education docs, receipts, etc. it also helps to automatically tag them to some degree of accuracy
  4. Automatic dating, it is quite good at picking out the date of the document, as seperate to the upload date. and it is easily updatable if it is wrong
  5. OCR - the documents content is searchable!
  6. Ease of tax time. I have some financial year views that make it really easy for me to do my tax (Australia), and i dont need to go hunting for paper that has faded in the heat and is no longer legible.
  7. folders - the documents are placed in a folder structure of your choosing. if you change the details in the document meta-data, it will move it to the correct place.

so, whilst a folder structure would work. this is SOOO much easier, and provides much more functionality as it is not just storage. it also has WAF!

As far as changed your life, there are not too many that i really love, that made a massive difference to how i do things. But there is one:

Paperless_ngx

ALL of my paper work, receipts, transcripts, tax, shares, council rates. Everything goes in there. We no longer have paper lieing everywhere (well, my wife is another matter, still keeps grocery shopping reciepts...). when i get soimething in the mail, i used the paperless app to "scan" it, upload it, then bin the paper.

An actual life change that i didn't know i needed.
