GStreamer is a library for constructing graphs of media-handling components. The applications it supports range from simple Ogg/Vorbis playback, audio/video streaming to complex audio (mixing) and video (non-linear editing) processing.

It’s more of a glue that can connect multiple media things together

So vesktop it still is

You might be able to turn off sleep indication (nlinking power led) in bios btw:)

No, the commenter ommited a lot of information, it’s not full Nitro, it’s just the features that can be enabled/worked around client-side, see my comment under the parent one.

To clarify about the fake nitro plugin of Vencord/Vesktop:

It’s not Nitro, it just enables some features you get with nitro, mainly better streaming quality and being able to “send” emojis from any server (this is all it does, cant use any emoji reacts nor send bigger files or server boost).

Also

About the emojis, the custom/other server emojis are sent as image links which discord will render but it is not a native discord emoji and will format differently when used inline.
It also does nothing for custom emoji reacts.

About streaming, Discord uses webrtc, that usually means P2P streaming which in turn means that the streaming client can send whatever they want (as long as the receiving clients understand it) and discord servers can’t say no. It’s not server authoritative communication, discord without nitro just hides the UI options, vencord gives them back.

whats the rest then?

Not wrong, it is shady. Though the NTDEV guy behind it does have some (sparse) information on their patreon about how and what tools, mainly seems to be done with osdbuilder. Comes down to trust as with anything on internet, I just need to run chkdsk.exe on drives from time to time and the smaller it is the better.

Tiny11 iso

Quick google search it seems your only options for HA are Xiaomi scales with bluetooth paired to a mcu with esphome.

The closest thing with the remote stuff and media will probably be https://libreelec.tv/

There is also Tiny11 iso flying around somewhere which is a lot smaller and less resource heavy then usual windows vm.

I would really recommend just trying it out too (when RL time allows), all of the low-level stuff is often well hidden or not required to deal with unless you need it, well most of it is and everything having mostly one solution is a nice refresh compared to the hells of scripted languages.

- A long time python dev.

“Import-time” execution was a huge mistake.

Your use-case and situation seems very close to mine except I specifically do not host communities.

First of all, you can run as many services from single nginx as you want (or can handle), usually you do this by having each service on it’s own (sub)domain and routing it all to the same IP, nginx then proxies the requests to the corresponding service running locally on a given port (see nginx reverse proxy).

I would definitely recommend docker images unless you have specific needs, afaik the ansible recipe installs and manages a docker compose project too (unless they also added official bare-bones ansible setup). Might be wrong here, I do docker and manage it myself, updating is usually a file edit and two commands away.

About the VPS being enough - from my monitoring, every foreign subscribed community increases the load, with bigger/more active communities increasing it more.
The main limiting resource for my setup is disk space, sometime ago I’ve calculated my database size is increasing about 1G per month with about 500 subscribed communities and that’s only the postgresql database size without any media. The stats from my s3 provider (you can host images locally too), hint that I am gaining 1-5GBs of media per month.

I don’t have any metrics how much the amount of active users drains the server as my instance is intentionally small, but I can imagine that having 10-100-1000 active users at the same time would drastically increase the load of at least postgres as well as increase the bandwith.

And about my setup for comparison, I am renting a dedicated server from Hetzner (AX41-NVMe) running a bunch of other services as well (minecraft server, factorio server, file sharing service, …) and as of the last 30 days my monitoring reports the “average” load average (same for all 1/5/15m) being around 1 core (out of 12 core processor, 6*2 smt).
Memory is sitting at about 50% month average out of 64G.
Though, most of the services are really under-utilized (minecraft) or don’t require much (factorio).

Rule of thumb, if your users subscribe to a lot of outside communities expect at least increased disk space consumption, at worst also increased bandwidth and load.
If any of your hosted communities get popular on the wider fediverse, definitely expect increased bandwith and load - more servers hitting your server with more data (upvotes, comments, edits…) means nginx, lemmy and postgres also need to process more.
At baseline there will be a lot of a spiky but small chatter from other instances and the biggest resource drain will be postgres.

I wouldn’t personally go into this with anything less then 4 vCPUs, 32G of RAM and non-shared/virtual storage (disk latency kills postgres performance).

You might have more success with something like wireguard tunnel for escape hatch/reverse tunnel.
I did the forever reverse ssh tunnel once and it wasn’t really stable.

Note: Amds Zero RPM is getting support in 6.13 kernel.

I guess quality and sometimes s(p)eed for older/niche pieces, also no dmca bots tracking private trackers so in theory you don’t need a vpn.

After some amount of pain with sushi belts, I’ve just stolen the design from Nilaus with passthrough filtering splitters and bots, so very much similar to your setup but two main belts.

https://youtu.be/qr_Lep5UCJU?t=37m2s

Not at pc so don’t have a BP but basically like this:

The outter belt is the overflow that goes through an array of speed boosted recyclers and the output goes back to the inner main as priority input.
You do have to account for the secondary outputs of the recycled overflow, so green circs, iron and copper plates, iron ore etc

Edit: the item filter of the storage chests must match the filter of the respective splitters (obviously), like this bots will prioritize these chests for both requests and “storage”. Edit2: it is ready for quality upcycling but we didn’t have time/felt like it at the moment

afaik this is configured in pictrs service and each instance has it set differently
