Plex is also on the route of enshittitfication. Jellyfin is the better recommendation imo. A variety of apps that can connect to it too, for either streaming or music.
For music libraries:
Very Neat! Saving this to my wishlist 🙌
Ok good to know, it does seem like there is some standard across browsers for a maximum cookie lifetime of 400 at least.
Do you have a cookie extension in specifc you would recommend?
It’s about having options, not excluding any other projects at all. Yes Librewolf is great, but for some, like myself, its too strict.
I did, all I found was how to define the cookielife time by yourself, not what the default value is… :<
I found this thread discussing it, they found the maximum lifespan to be around 400 days for the different browsers. However Google Docs state that it can be longer than 400 days if specified correctly. https://discourse.mozilla.org/t/cookie-maximum-lifespan/105916/5
As far as I have understood it those are two different things; Cookie lifetime(locally on your device), as well as the servers cookie, reffered to as company/vendors retention period, e.g. how long they are allowed to keep your data for.
Thanks for sharing, wasn’t aware of this channel yet. A lot of very relevant videos for me to watch forward 😊
Definitely a very valid point! I have a server I can back up to aswell, just gotta set it up as you say 👌
Thanks for the explanation, I luckily solved this with just “basic” changes of permissions in dolphin actually haha, but defo good to know that chattr has these capabilities for future references. Appriciate it 🌻
Thanks for insight!
Yeah actually this was more simple thanI had imagined, I simply changed it so that the owner(me) can only view the folder and not edit. Which totally works in my use case. Thought it would have been more difficult than just changing this tbh, thanks!
Its honestly not that bad installing apps on these distros. Yeah the main one is flatpak, secondly appimages as easy as ever, and any other app can be installed via distrobox and exported if needed. If not that, then apps can also be layered onto the system if needed.
Ultimately it boils down to user preferences, but considering the growth and popularity of Immutable versions of distros, I would be surprised to not see a few more attempts from the Arch side of Linux.
Thanks I might try this! However does this allow for reads/writes from the system? Considering this is a folder for games, the files are constantly changing, such as the game save files etc…
Thanks for your input! This is defo something i do need to learn from indeed. This happened on a pretty fresh install too, the only program linked to that specific folder/path, was Bottles, as I need it for running the executeable for the game. No addtional drives or mounts (other than what Bottles is responsible for). However I would still like to be able to “lock” folders just to prevent my own sillyness from deleting it again.
not excluding Librewolf, just sharing options.
I don’t view the ghacks.net article as badpress myself after reading it. Also the System1 deal, which is no longer a thing, is the same company who bought Startpage, which is still recommended over at privacyguides.org
It all boils down to user preferences right. Some users prefer the maxium amount of control, while others, including myself, only use the pc for gaming and browsing, so I’d rather have a system that cannot be broken by myself and not deal with updates etc…
I personally went with a P15 model and have been beyond happy with mine. Got that numpad too 🙌
