  • I don’t think you’re overexaggerating the potential backlash at all; especially on Lemmy.

    I don’t either, like you said, ‘especially on Lemmy.’ The thing is, AI assisted anything is unavoidable. Even in the case of longstanding, well established projects, we’re seeing AI being involved to some extent or the other. Like you, I’ve used AI to create a small handful of things for my server. One would be when I log in via SSH, there is a banner that pulls a random song from Navidrome’s playlists and displays it on the MOTD. For instance, today’s is:

    🎵 SONG OF THE DAY

    Blues Garage by Marco Tansini

    I did make my code available here with the stipulation that it works on my machine, buyer beware, as it were. But I’d never purport to maintain it even tho I released it. For one, I don’t have the patience to wade through mounds of criticism, and requests for other options. That patience left me decades ago.

    instead they’d rather sit on the internet and criticize other people’s methods of coping with overload.

    Preach it! Dev toils away at creating an app. Dev releases it to the public for free with no obligations whatsoever, to even consider it. Dev gets hammered for a variety of things including AI. Go make your own app and release it to the public and see how that goes. It’s a mote/beam kind of thing.





  • but what I tend to see is one or two people here saying that Jellyfin devs don’t recommend exposing it publicly

    I think what the devs are saying is ‘don’t expose Jellyfin to the public in an unsafe manner’. I don’t run Jellyfin, but can confirm what you’ve read here. In that vein, don’t expose anything to the public in an unsafe manner.


  • Question: Is there a hard limit for playlists? Reason being, I have a rather large collection I have converted from the physical media to flac. I have a playlist that is edging 100k songs. When I try to play it in the Navidrome UI, it takes at least 5+ minutes to even begin to play, and then forwarding to another song is neigh impossible. I can play other playlists smaller than that in the UI. Feishin, which is indirectly routed through Cloudflare, and not taping the local IP of the server, has no issues playing the playlist in question. Substreamer, iOS, has no problem either.

    Specs:

    Optiplex 7020 i7-49790 32 GB RAM

    …which seems like it would be sufficient.
