Did you enable home assistant discovery since you were doing a manual installation?

AlternateRoute,

Odd I have done the full setup several times As I run pure dockers / separate HA, Mosquito MQTT and Zigbee2mqtt and the devices all just auto discover and appear in HA has devices with entities with full control.

Anything with magic, super powers, monsters, daemons, aliens tends to be terrifying from a common persons point of view. Parasyte is rather disturbing even for the main character. The only answer in that one seems to be go live alone in the woods / hope for a quick death vs being infected.

AlternateRoute,

Parasyte en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parasyte

There is a maga, anime and a live action movie.

Not really… Nearly every phpBB, SMF, Invision forum etc is a separate self hosted community and they get indexed. Hell even small ones like one of my gaming guilds ranked high for specific key words.

For SEO to work well you need clear links to clear topics, and it helps to have automatic metada also to assist indexing.

Having google compatible site maps assists in crawling the site.

AlternateRoute,

You can still do SEO (search engine optimization) but making sure all the prefered metadata is there, sitemaps etc… It improves your rank.

Isn’t going to put you at the top, that is the job of the content but it can be the difference between being on page one or not.

Since you only listed apple platforms you can also just use the built in options for both password management and 2FA.

Edit: support.apple.com/en-ca/guide/iphone/…/ios

There are even plugins for browser on windows for it if needed.

Lacks advanced family password sharing and other features but it is hard to beat for ease of use for an individual who mostly uses apple devices.

AlternateRoute,

They released a Chrome and Edge extension to support 3rd party browsers about a year ago. I have never tried it but I noted it lets you be cross platform with the password feature.

AlternateRoute, (edited )

WebDAV is a very old and very technical protocol to setup. The average user just wants to get the app and have it work everywhere.

I did run keypass for many years but the janky sync (it is better now) was one of the driving forces for me to change.

These days group password sharing among my family is a key feature (Netflix,Disney+) which is another feature found in some of the newer passwords managers.

AlternateRoute,

Most RJ-45 connectors (without a boot on them)… The connector only fits one way, the orientation is clear on both ends while holding, looking or even by feel if you have to do it blind and it locks into place easily. Only issue is how fragile the clocking part is, which boots are supposed to help protect but make more difficult to use.

I like reversible connectors like lighting and USB-C but I find them too small and fragile in general and they are not very satisfying to connect.

I have a special hate for connectors that are HARD to blind connect or even tell at a distance like USB-A, HDMI and Displayport which are ether rectangles or slightly not rectangles that are close enough that is hard to tell in the dark behind a device.

I have a strong dislike for connectors with thumb screws, but like locking connectors like Centronics or as noted RJ11 or RJ45.

AlternateRoute,

More and more I have been using the Bing “chat” search. It does a search, filters through the results and summarizes the answer with links to the sites it found them on.

For certain types of search it is a huge time saver of scrolling through results to find answers on various pages.

Over all bing search it self isn’t bad.

AlternateRoute,

If it isn’t open / free / private there is a % of the community that will not even try it.

Just like on Reddit lots of negative energy in some subs.

Hardly saying bing is amazing only that lately I have been drawn to trying it more since the chat based search that allows follow ups in natural language.

Google bards equivalent is only available in the US and just this last week the UK so I can’t try it out.

However over all I agree that more and more google search results have more adds and the good results pushed further and further down.

AlternateRoute,

The “preview” for the chat feature requires the app or edge on desktop currently but I do find myself turning to it every time I get frustrated with a google search these days.

Less disappointing is probably the best discrimination as you said.

AlternateRoute,

Slay the spire is kind of a style choice. Dev art mode is bad however and kinda funny lol.

I feel like /c/memes has taught us a valuable lesson today: Would it make sense to develop a feature to block a comm from our feed for a selectable unit of time (1 hour, 1 day, etc.)?

Even if we’re subscribed to them? Could a temp block exist in conjunction with a subscription? I love c/memes but holy shit no matter which sort I select by they’ve managed to overwhelm my feed.

AlternateRoute,

it isn’t just /c/memes looking at the global feed I felt like I was blocking meme related communities for a while yesterday.

I think the core app needs some simple text filters for communities and posts or hopefully some of the client apps will implement that a number of the meme subs at least have the word meme in their name.

Same could be said for NSFW subs, but we at least have a global toggle for those at if they have been correctly tagged.

AlternateRoute,

Slay the Spire 187 hrs and counting. No where near the time I see others have put into single games.

AlternateRoute,

More that I just don’t spend as much time playing games these days.

I really like it however as it is one of a few games in my collection I can just randomly play for a few min and leave or hours at a time.

What are some ways Lemmy could be destabilized?

If Lemmy were to become a serious major threat to giant cash-cows like Reddit, it would be in their best interest to de-stabilize the communities here. I think it’s best that we think of ways Lemmy could be taken advantage of, so we can best prepare ourselves for potentially what could come....

AlternateRoute,

Needs more mature identity security, spam protection and moderation tools.

I generally browse only my subscriptions which is fine but every time I go into browsing all I get hit with memes and all sorts of random crap so I am constantly blocking committees to clean up the feed.

Have you had any bad experiences with people on Lemmy?

I was recently talking to some friends about Lemmy and the whole Fediverse idea, as it seemed like a really cool part of the Internet. As I was talking about it, though, I realized how unusually friendly this whole place is, and I joked that I “surprisingly haven’t found any bigotry.”...

AlternateRoute,

If you don’t hate Twitter, Reddit, Threads you must love them and are the enemy.

Lots of us vs them hate on this platform like many others. You arnt allowed to have a nuanced opinion or conversation about some things.
