Otter@lemmy.caOPto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•A sovereign Microsoft 365 alternative: Nextcloud and IONOS join forces - NextcloudEnglish2·6 days agoI think they’re looking for local “AI” anyway. Since those work directly on your machine, there’s no concern around trust (nothing leaves your device) and the resource cost is whatever your hardware uses, or was already using.
There are some concerns still with local models, such as any biases in the training data that was used, but for image classification it wouldn’t be that bad.
There is also !localllama@sh.itjust.works :)
crossposting between the communities can help grow both
Exciting! You could also share this on !fediverse@lemmy.world and similar communities ( !fediverse@lemmy.ml, !fediverse@piefed.social)
edit: I see it’s already posted on piefed.social :)
Otter@lemmy.cato Selfhosted@lemmy.world•I've been working on a guide to Pocket alternativesEnglish6·14 days agoBeing able to compare between options would help me pick which one I want to use :)
Alternatively, a way to filter the full list would be helpful. That way I can select the items that I need and see everything that has what I need.
This for example:

Thank you for putting it together though!

@mesamunefire@piefed.social does anything show up when you log in to GitHub and check billing?

Otter@lemmy.cato WomensStuff@lazysoci.al•Lemmy is not a good space for women or a women's community.English10·26 days agoI have also heard good things about https://beehaw.org/ in that regard (both are excellent instances, I’m not suggesting one over the other)
I hope you and the community here is able to find a place that meets your needs! I enjoy reading and learning from the posts in this community
Otter@lemmy.cato Privacy@lemmy.ml•Recent commits suggest Signal is preparing a paid subscription for backups.English111·1 month agoI commented this in the other thread, sharing it here as well
I’ve been waiting for this feature for a while actually 😅
When I last saw people talking about it, there were rumors that there would be a reasonable free backup (ex. up to 1 Gb) with relatively cheap paid options above that. I scrolled through the GitHub link and couldn’t confirm or deny if this is still/actually the case.
Backups are the #1 pain point for friends that tried to switch to Signal, especially for those on iOS. I have a local backup + sync setup for my own phone, but it’s a lot to expect for the average casual user to set up.
Whatsapp has backups to Google Drive, which is better than nothing but not ideal. It’s time Signal had a reliable backup method for casual users
Otter@lemmy.caOPto Boost For Lemmy@lemmy.world•[feature request] Support for Piefed instancesEnglish2·1 month agoI made another comment in this thread. I find that it is more similar to Mbin (the successor to Kbin), but it’s somewhat more popular right now.
There is a comparison of the features here: https://lemmy.ca/post/45413094/16944475
Otter@lemmy.caOPto Boost For Lemmy@lemmy.world•[feature request] Support for Piefed instancesEnglish9·1 month agoIt has some quality of life features that people seem to like, which Lemmy doesn’t have yet. I’m still getting familiar with it myself. I’ve heard that blocks work better, and that it lets you follow Mastodon/Pixelfed users.
It’s made by a different team, and since it’s built with Python & Flask, I imagine development is much faster compared to Lemmy (Rust).

It’s working for me, and so maybe it came back?
Do you have a cat cafe or shelter/rescue nearby?
It’s not the same thing, but it might quench your thirst somewhat
Cool!
I love the UI for this one, it’s unique compared to the others
