Dude, I have YouTube music and I literally am not able to change or upgrade to YouTube premium. They don’t let me, it links me to a useless empty page with no options. I don’t even know what the price is like. This whole subscription thing is a mess.

I solved it by using YouTube revanced and have all premium functions and more. On desktop I wrote my own player. It’s so much better because their website is a mess. At this point do I really want to pay for features I know I won’t use?

The --delete flag is already in there so it should empty the camera_backup folder, but the robocopy will copy every single photo back into it the next run.

Ah, I am not familiar at all with Windows, so I honestly wouldn’t know. Does the Immich CLI even work on Windows?

But going off by the comments and the parts I understand, I guess it could kinda work, assuming that the arguments are all correct. Although, it will try to upload all photos every time, regardless if Immich already has them or not. Which is not ideal but I believe Immich will filter out duplicated photos. But it’s worth checking if it’s indeed smart enough to do that.

For the Immich command it will upload the files to an album called “Camera_Backup”. Not sure if that’s what you want. If not, then remove the -a flag. If you want to upload it to a specific album, then instead add ‘-A albumname’ (edit: I realize I might be wrong here. If you have multiple folders in Syncthing you’re backing up it will work differently)

I understand you. I also don’t use the auto upload feature as it’s creating more problems for me to solve than what it fixes. I already had Syncthing running anyway so I currently use that combo (except I manually sort through my photos on a semi-weekly basis before I upload it to Immich).

If you want, I can cook up a little Python script you could stick into Cron to do all the tasks you described. I haven’t worked with the Immich CLI yet but I’m sure I can figure it out. Send me a message if you’re interested. I will probably use it myself as well.

With ublock origin I haven’t encountered popups for weeks. They update pretty much every day to keep on top of the YouTube changes.

The only time I really got popups was when another extention I had was making ad changing modifications to YouTube which I didn’t realize at that time.

The first time it paused my YouTube video inside Firefox when a call came in on my phone, it blew my mind. And then when the call ended, it just casually resumed the video. I love it. That, the clipboard syncing and easy sharing of files between devices make it absolutely awesome to have.

Isn’t app development a recurring cost? It’s not like you just work on it for a bit and just forget about it once you got a version out. Especially if it’s using a service (lemmy) that is still in development and is constantly changing.

I get that on hot after only 5 posts. Everything after that is a minimum of 1 year old, and only the first 3-5 post are recent. It’s kinda funny reading the comments on those posts as there are a lot of lost people commenting on it right now, thinking it’s something recent.

I don’t know about it. Look even at the usernames. It’s @name@instance.addr, it’s structured like an email. Even for instances, /c/piracy is not a thing, it is !piracy@lemmy.ml in Lemmy world. Even Mastadon has the same structure of name@instance.

Every community has their own sets of rules, own set of moderators and culture. If you don’t like how one is moderated, go to another one (basically how reddit works too, except there you need to change to name to make an alternate community)

Regarding not being able to make new communities: We’re all federated. What’s wrong with making a community on a different instance with your lemmy.ml account?

I know that feeling lol.

I have a love/hate relationship with my Google speaker. Some examples that have happened:

“Hey google, set the temperature to 21 degrees”

google: “Sure. Setting the heater to 71 degrees!”

And

me: hey google, start a timer for ten minutes

google: okay, starting a 10 minute timer

me: perfect

google: okay, consider it cancelled

me: …

Might I point out the reason why people might react so offended by it? You have your opinions. And that is fine. Nobody can tell you your opinions are invalid. But if you look back to your message, your opinions are stated as hard facts:

They’re often very loud

they demand your attention constantly

they’re always in your space

Dogs are just exhausting.

I understand what you mean with this. But it kind of reads similar to someone saying something like “All Americans are dumb”. And then when everyone gets offended by it they be like “It’s just my opinion, why is everyone angry at me?”. And of course people get angry, You get all the responses from people who have an American friend, and THAT person isn’t dumb! So of course your facts are invalid!

Anyway. Not a dig at you in any way. Thought I’d just let you know how it reads.

Same! So much better this way. I wrote my own program so it just automatically downloads new videos from channels I’ve told it I’m interested in, and then it puts it in the appropriate Jellyfin folder. Way more reliable this way, I don’t miss videos. And I don’t care if my internet shits the bed, it can take however long it wants to take to download and once it’s there I can even watch it even with no internet. I even implemented sponsorblock in it so Jellyfin automatically skips sponsored segments.

That only works if they’re actually discoverable when you search for them, so you can pick the correct one. On reddit if you search for a specific thing, you get a list of all possible subreddits in one go. On lemmy… it really depends on the instance you’re on, and if anyone else on your instance has discovered the other communities yet. You never know if the search results are complete. Even https://browse.feddit.de is not always showing all the communities I noticed.

And even now I have to keep rechecking communities/interests I have already subscribed too because new duplicates get made all the time with new instances showing up.
