BlackEco, 6 months ago to piracy in Prime is adding ads to their streaming service

It was already bad enough when they advertised for their own shows at the beginning of episodes…

Anyway, I stopped subscribing to Prime years ago, didn’t want to give my money to Amazon unless I have no other place to purchase some items.

Mine is Rémi, because when I told my partner the robot’s brand (Dreame) they heard “Rémi”. Since then it stuck.

Proper links to communities mentioned by OP:

• !lemmybewholesome
• !upliftingnews

By any chance, have you set database.pool_size in lemmy.hjson? You could try increasing the number to see if it improves performance

BlackEco, 6 months ago to lemmy_support in Lemmy Ansible 1.3.0 (Lemmy v0.19.0) update dramatically reduced performance of instance

doesn’t have any changes which would cause performance impact

There’s Lemmy 0.19.0’s persistent federation queue which brings a much higher database load, this could be why OP reports reduced performance.

Unless you backed up you database right before the upgrade, I don’t think you can downgrade as the database schema has been migrated while upgrading to Lemmy 0.19.0.

The downtime mentioned in the README is the database migration, which can take quite some time on some instances (it took 5-10 minutes on mine).

Well, I honestly don’t know, maybe you’re right

BlackEco, 7 months ago to asklemmy in Lemmy reboot frequency

I second that. I want to add that you might miss new posts and comments while your instance reboots, you want to keep reboots to a minimum.

It mutes pre and post ads, it unfortunately cannot skip them.

Weird. Have you tried removing 0 0 at the end of your fstab entry? This option is not supported on recent NFS versions

BlackEco, 7 months ago to piracy in Advice on blocking Youtube ads.

I set up iSponsorBlockTV on my NAS: it connects to the YouTube app on your TV (as would your smartphone app) and mutes ads and skips sponsored segments.

Initial setup is a bit arcane, but once it’s done it works perfectly!

What error message do you have (if any) when you try to mount your folder (sudo mount /home/pi/mount/NAS)
