    I don’t have some objective reason personally, I just don’t like web apps for 90℅ of things.

    me neither, but the discord app is a webapp just as well. the difference is that it runs its own browser engine, and so uses more system memory, and that it has free access to everything in your computer (and your local network), including your files, the audio devices, and lots more information on how you use it.

    I’m curious does the web app allow for pass-through audio devices (an audio interface) or things like voicemeeter?

    I’m not sure, I don’t understand what do you mean by pass through audio devices. what do you use it for?

    if you want to access NTFS partitions on linux, you should turn off “fast startup” in windows. control panel, energy saving, “choose what the power button does” menu. (so intuitive, eh?)

    when that’s ticked in, it will always just hibernate the system after logging out, and that’s a nono, and a big one if dualbooting (even just 2 windowses)

    you don’t need to make the windows, just alttab while dragging. and maybe you already have open the directory in another window so why browse there again in the browser’s file picker.

    probably not a big deal, but definitely not a small issue either

    750 Ti, and the driver is still garbage. on plasma wayland had to turn off window previews on taskbar for the environment to not freeze randomly. a kernel update earlier there was an 80% chance the whole thing would crash after login on the firsf frame of the desktop, or before that. gamescope has problems thanks to nvidua unique things: FSR is pure blackness but even without that, games are tearing and slow while even a test animation like vkcube maxes out a cpu core of a cpu that’s not nearly that bad. and that’s just been the product of a single week of linux usage on the desktop.

    The good news is this still works despite no updates it does everything it used to. There is almost zero reason to update any working NAS if it is behind a firewall.

    if all users and devices on the network are well behaved and don’t install every random app, even if from the play store, then yeah, it’s less of a risk


  • no, it isn’t for

    • matrix, because if the servers ever connect again, the message will get through. this is what’s called an “eventually consistent” system
    • any mainstream and semi-mainstream messengers, where there is a single server (from the users’ point of view), and the message just can’t get lost (randomly)

    the client shouldn’t be dealing with issues between servers. that’s the servers responsibility. if the server has told the client that it got the message, what is there anymore for the client to do?

    The issue with AP objects not making it to other clients / servers is more about federation discovery.

    I don’t think so. if you know the recipient, you know it’s servername too. and then your server can forward it to theirs.

    I think the problem here is that messages are not always delivered.
