What is a service you host you never knew you needed?

I second paperless-ngx. I've gotten rid of almost all paper docs, just scan everything in. It makes taxes so much easier because I can easily filter year to year for comparisons.

@[email protected] no. I use the app service one. It works well, but it's basically for bridging public channels. The Mautrix bridges all work very well. I've used the Facebook one in the past. It's just the limits those platforms put on the bridge (e.g. banning or locking account) that can be a problem. If your bridge is connecting from the same place as you normally connect to Discord from, you should be fine.

Happens to be more useful than I originally thought.

A puppeting (personal account) Discord bridge basically requires your own homeserver. You are trusting the homeserver owner / bridge host fully with your Discord account.
It is technically against Discord ToS. While I don't think anyone's been banned yet, several people have started receiving warnings that they "spammed", most of them after sending an attachment. These warnings are on your account for 2 years, and could contribute to an account ban.
Voice chat is not, and probably will not be supported.
Do NOT bridge a "large" server. You are essentially re-hosting the chats, which can be extremely taxing for large and active Discord servers.

I use mine for a single channel in a "medium-size" server (~2k people), a friend group server, DMs, and a few channels that follow a bunch of announcement channels on other servers.

Recipe manager and meal planner which can pull recipes from the web. I started using it after a few recipes on sites disappeared. My families most used app (besides plex).

I use mautrix/discord, it can work in both puppeting (sign into your account) mode and relay (bot account with webhooks) mode.

Easily set up, and easily attached to other things. Simple notifications about whatever is needed, like service health or updates, new posts on public platforms, etc. A simple curl is plenty to send and receive notifications, and it works on Android without requiring FCM (Google infrastructure).

You've just made me waste the next 2 days, because this sounds great! Only thing I'm a bit hesitant about is trusting all bridge makers. I'm a bit more aware that I use a lot of FOSS where it could be easy for the dev's to just go rogue. But that's still better than giving it away to some closed source company.

Bump and definitely saving this thread!

For low end dum-dums like me, https://sabre.io/baikal/ is a simpler, but very stable caldav solution. I bet Radicale has more features, but did I mention being low end?

I installed this at my work. Became pretty popular

why use jellyseer? what are the advantages of it compared to just using jellyfin.

[email protected]

You can't request media?

[email protected]

It supports bog standard Oauth2. Easy to integrate into Nextcloud for example.

[email protected]

They do different things.

Jellyfin plays the media, jellyseer lets me see what films and tv shows are upcoming and select it to be downloaded when I get some time.

A clone of 12ft.io but the old version before they got into beef with the New York Times and kneecapped it. It doesn’t work on every single article with a paywall but it works on the overwhelming majority (including New York Times articles)

And it doesn’t really count because I knew I’d use it but komga+komf+fmd2. I list it though because I didn’t realize I’d use this stack so much. I can now read with my phone, my laptop, my ereader, etc. tachiyomi/mihon works, reading progress is synced, and I never have to visit one of those garbage manga aggregation sites ever again

Thx. So far the mautirx ines have worked flawlessly for me. I got blocked once, years ago by WhatsApp when I first set it up. No issues after that, so I'm not really afraid of getting banned. And I'm not planning to use the apps or website much after I got the bridge running. That is if it offers all the features and I don't have a reason anymore to log in myself...

[email protected]

Thank you very much. I'm going to set it up then.

[email protected]

Same thing for me. I couldn’t get radical running and baikal was easy
