Everything is declared, from packages to configuration, and then I can put it in a git repo locked to versions. If something breaks on updates, you have free rollbacks. Which means you can’t screw up too much. Also it has almost all the software.

Id suggest rust, gets you a step closer to the hardware and a bit of a different paradigm than Java while still feeling high level.
Came for this. Stayed for the other comments.
I guess I’d agree. I’m just quite pessimistic and view that almost all people are quite corrupted and checks and balances of a sort reign it in.
I’m gonna go out on a limb here and say power does corrupt. For almost all of history, any sort of power eventually comes with corruption. Its kinda the human condition. That being said, I do think there are ways of minimizing that corruption and defending against it.
Yea that’s basically sonarr with a downloader like transmission. Which are separate from jellyfin. Go here to learn for to set it all up. servarr
They keep the data to themselves as it is their secret sauce to deliver ads.
I don’t think that’s entirely true. They won’t sell direct data, but through their ad and search systems your ads can drill down to very specific people and thus you know about them. It’s still crappy. It’s kinda unfair I think to outright say they don’t sell your data. You data is their core money maker. It’s just in a round about way. Sure maybe it doesn’t bother you, but in my opinion, the collection of data is the core problem with modern technology, not even just the internet. Data is extremely powerful and valuable.
Wait, I did wake up at 4am today… Shoot
Except I see a million memes compared to anything else
Except that’s what happened with xmpp. Google and WhatsApp and Facebook all used to be xmpp. Once they had most their users they started ignoring the protocol and people who had regular xmpp servers we’re viewed as weird by the rest of society since they couldn’t see certain things and then to “fix” that, Google and Facebook stopped interoperating with xmpp and people said “hurray, no more broken stuff, thank you our giant tech overlords!”
Been remodeling a house that we just bought and this has been a my experience as well. I just enjoy making things. Software, home automations, wood, anything. The joy of building. I think that’s what it is.
