Otter@lemmy.caOPto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•A sovereign Microsoft 365 alternative: Nextcloud and IONOS join forces - NextcloudEnglish3·5 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.
Hi, it looks like your post got posted twice and is getting reported. You could delete one of them?
There is also !localllama@sh.itjust.works :)
crossposting between the communities can help grow both
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:
Otter@lemmy.cato Selfhosted@lemmy.world•I've been working on a guide to Pocket alternativesEnglish12·14 days agoIt would be cool if there was a table to compare them with, since right now you’d have to open each of them to check.
Thank you for putting it together though!

Would Aurora be a better recommendation these days?

Evidently, he’d wandered into the daycare center from the surrounding forest and found a perfectly cozy spot to rest his head.
Neat

It seems that there are a few common types of sounds
- O-live: English, Basque, Dutch, Czech, etc. Potentially even Albanian and Japanese which kept the “Oh-Lee…” Portion
- Zay-Toon: Arabic, Azerbaijani, Farsi, the language you are learning
Then some unique ones that still might fit into those bins:
-
Marathi is listed as “Jai-fa-la”, which is still somewhat similar to the second type
-
someone commented Gan-lan, which seems to be different
I don’t think they need a specific answer, but rather they want to comment on the different variations
Since the PieFed API was only enabled recently, there aren’t that many apps out yet. !interstellar@kbin.earth is the one that people recommend right now. Voyager has plans to add it.
As more people use it, hopefully more apps will support it :)
Someone else already gave a decent explanation :)
Can you try these two guide pages and see if they help? They have some diagrams
https://fedecan.ca/en/guide/get-started
https://fedecan.ca/en/guide/lemmy/for-users/detailed-overview
So lemmy.ca and piefed.ca have different feeds altogether when I view them, are they two separate things then
They are two separate platforms, made by different teams. The feeds look different for a few reasons
- piefed.ca is brand new and so it is missing a lot of the content. As people start using it, the default logged out feed will start to look closer to other instances
- An instance only pulls the content that its users are subscribed to. When you make an account on an instance and you are the first person to subscribe to a community, hitting subscribe will tell your instance to start pulling in those posts. That is why every instance will be slightly different regardless.
I’m not really clear on how communicating freely between them works
Unlike Lemmy and Mastodon, which are somewhat different formats (posts in communities) vs. short text posts on a user’s profile), Lemmy and PieFed are more or less the same. So it should be a lot closer in experience. Whatever you can subscribe to, comment on, or vote on within lemmy.ca, you should be able to do the same on piefed.ca
Especially because we are running both instances, and so they will have similar block lists.
It’s nice timing! Looking forward to seeing you and your instance in the world of pie :)
Otter@lemmy.cato Privacy@lemmy.ml•Recent commits suggest Signal is preparing a paid subscription for backups.English101·1 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
Cool!
I love the UI for this one, it’s unique compared to the others
