I admit that I screwed up somehow. I got eager and followed an old search result. Not sure how to fix that or if it is worth it.

I actually don’t know. It was a one and done snap install.

No P2P with free Proton.

It isn’t that I am unwilling to pay. I am incapable.

This is a step forward, but actually using DistroBox is confusing. I’m at the low end of an intermediate user here and don’t see a direct way to get the .deb pkg.

Nothing specific right now. I’m just trying to get some protection. I’ll do what it takes!

Yeah, no. As soon as I looked into this it requires subscription. Also, the GUI is suspiciously old. Like GNOME from 15+ years ago old.

Maybe I’m blind, maybe it’s me viewing this on a phone, but I legitimately can’t tell the difference.

I’m sure. However, I am not in a position to self host and videos are huge unless you post them as webm which some people might even report you for.

I post a fair amount of video edits. I’ve had quite a few people say that video playback is far from ideal for not just Lemmy, but the Fediverse as a whole. Is this mostly a 3rd party app thing, or a backend issue? I haven’t had much issue myself, but enough people have mentioned it that there is likely an issue somewhere down the line.

Things like this are why I am mostly glad to still be using xbmc on my original hacked Xbox. Not much space and I have to deal with FTP, but it still works a treat.

Don’t forget that, being Canadian news, it pisses off and hemorrhages money from Meta passively.
