Mr Robot’s soundtrack is awesome, I remember the agonizing years waiting for the final volume to come out through all the red tape

Absolutely worth it

Aurora on my work machine, Bazzite on my home machine haha

Beets is one solution, and I also recommend taking a look at Musicbrainz Picard. It’s a more graphical and user friendly way (though more manual) to identify, organize, tag, and sort music into a preferred format. It’s what I use on all my Bandcamp purchases to clean up metadata and add things like lyrics before it automatically throws it into the right folder

You just bounced so high it took a little time to fall back down

In addition to autorenaming Picard can also auto organize into folders. So any time I buy new music, I run it through Picard to ensure metadata is correct, grab lyrics, and put it in the right folder that is then picked up by my self hosted navidrome

Just one?

Portal - Self Esteem Fund by Kelly Bailey

The volumes this song speaks through it’s atmosphere is incredible. The raw emotions and feelings of isolation are better conveyed through this song than words ever can in my opinion

My scrobbles say I’ve listened to this single song for more than 9 hours over the years… I have so many emotions bottled up in this song lol

That’s fair. And in the case of Immich, the photos are automatically backed up to my computer so if I lose my phone I don’t lose the images, but I totally understand wanting something exclusively on the phone (Immich can let you browse photos local on your phone, but I don’t think it indexes them for searching by person/object). Unfortunately I’m not sure something like that exists, especially since the machine learning for identifying people/objects in pictures is pretty computationally intensive.

I wish you luck in your search! I agree that would be a great app to have

I’m sorry, I’m not entirely sure what you mean. All my photos are on my local hard drive on my computer at home, and I just point immich at that folder.

Once it boots up, immich doesn’t need internet to function, except for the first time you use image processing (the machine learning to search for things inside of images) and geocoding (putting the images on a map). Once it downloads those for the first time immich can run completely offline on your local computer. If you wish, you can open immich so you can connect to it from another device, such as a phone, but your images/data never leaves your device

That is completely fair, and part of that is on me since I spend so much time in self hosting communities where such a recommendation isn’t too out of the ordinary, while it’s way out of scope for what most people are looking for

Having a more user friendly and approachable way to do stuff like this would be very helpful

Immich lets you do this

https://immich.app/docs/features/searching/

For example here’s me searching for “forest”. But it also supports looking for people (even multiple people in the same image), places, dates, or combinations of all of them. It’ll also look for text in images. The link has more examples

All hosted and processed on my local computer, and connected to the mobile app

Hmmm, it works for me. Here’s the raw link in case it helps: https://github.com/Freika/dawarich

Dawarich has support for this. Be aware it is under very active development and has semi-frequent breaking changes though (No data loss, just manual steps to upgrade).

For example, here’s my recent trip to Austin for the Counter-Strike Major:

And with regular routing:

It technically works offline because you can record your location and load it afterwards, but I use it by ingesting my location that is tracked by Home Assistant

Thank you!

Do you have a link? I heard about this one but haven’t found a sharable link yet

Thank you for the suggestion! I’ve been trying it out for a few days now and it is my new favorite app in terms of design. I’m having a strange problem where it keeps logging me out every couple days, but other than that I love it

I use Tiny Tiny RSS (https://tt-rss.org/) on desktop, and while they have an official mobile app, I’ve been enjoying Read You on Android

They’ve been working on the redesign for awhile now, but the version everyone’s used to (Teamspeak 3) still works perfectly fine. TS3 clients can connect to new Teamspeak servers, and new Teamspeak clients can connect to old teamspeak servers, just without the new features like screen share

My group still uses TS3 on a daily basis on a self hosted server

That last part is a huge reason why I’m taking RSS more seriously. I don’t want my information to be limited to what happens to get picked up by the news cycle or worse chosen by the algorithm. I’d much rather get the information from the source. So that definitely meets the criteria :D

Uh oh I might be subscribing to all of these! Thank you very much!

And wow that low tech magazine site is beautiful
