   This project was started when Subsonic became closed-source in 2016 (which made me very upset). I wasn't too excited about using that API at the time. Nowadays, OpenSubsonic looks like a protocol worth supporting so I will be looking i

   Not at the moment, although this fits well into the project scope.

   In Firefox, go to Hamburger menu -> Settings -> General -> Language and appearance. There is a big three-button setup with Automatic/Light/Dark options (where Automatic is your OS-wide choice).

   After 30 years of using and developing for Windows, the last straw was the repeated full screen ads pushing Windows 11. A couple months ago, I took the plunge and built an AMD desktop w/ NixOS. Goodbye forever Microsoft. Now I get to l

   Re: 7 I think in the end all the videos did upload successfully, but the client UI stopped reporting progress at some point. A couple more suggestions: - Would like a select-all button instead of clicking videos 1 by 1 - An option to switch

    Thank you! Some feedback after using it for a few minutes: - When clicking the "+ create" menu, left-clicking whitespace on the page does not close the dropdown - Home page takes very long to list videos (even with a single video)

    Incredible timing, I was just looking for somewhere to store and share my video game clips. This looks more appealing (cheaper) than Streamable. I love that there is a Linux Appimage but does it also work with just a browser?

    For the simplest use cases, I can plug Polaris[1] which I have been maintaining for many years. Pros: - Very reliable - Very performant - Works well with large collections - Trivial setup - FOSS Cons: - Small featureset

    I have the opposite experience. LocalStorage can leak between tests and that has been an issue for years: https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/2695

    I've played a couple of these games (Opus Magnum, EXAPUNKS). What I liked about them is that they distill the experience of software engineering to "just the fun problem solving" part. In these games, you don't write RFC

    Just gave this a whirl and it's pretty neat! Some feedback: - App looks very pretty. Highlights are the subtle animations when scrolling long lists in the Library, and using album art in individual rows. - I like the output of the visu

    Iron is very much abandoned, I would not recommend it. I agree Actix and Rocket are the more common picks!

    FFXIV is a single linear game, which gets prolonged by regular expansion packs (Heavensward, Stormblood, Shadowbringers, and now Endwalker coming out this year). To progress, you have to play the base game and then the expansion packs in th

    This website has been making the rounds on social media for a few days - it's not just a HN sample. I agree it is still a heavily biased sample though.

    As a hobbyist Flutter user, I would like to be excited for this release. However, this announcement page does not do a very good job at highlighting changes and new features from Flutter 1. The only concrete feature mentioned is the web pla
