Most people will probably disagree and say that I shouldn't be here if I don't like it, but yeah, like the title said. I switched over from Reddit for various reasons, and at first it was nice, but now it's making me depressed just casually browsing Lemmy. Everything here is so drab and negative, sometimes even downright hateful. Everything sucks, here's a list of companies you should never use, here's people that do horrible things, here's a bunch of complaints about stuff. This is why the world sucks, this is why your favourite thing is actually stupid, this is why you shouldn't enjoy xyz anymore.

At least half of the content on Lemmy is about American politics or how they affect the rest of the world, even on meme and shitpost subs you can't escape from the constant barrage of politically charged content. And when it's not American politics it's American lifestyle, like I get that america dominates the internet but I sincerely do not give a shit about your egg prices or your celebrities when I'm browsing memes to wind down.

And on top of that there's a distinct arrogance that permeates the fediverse, where people act like they're better than others for being conscious, and you're stupid for not boycotting 99 percent of brands and eating vegan and ditching cars and using european FOSS applications on refurbished Linux devices, etc.

Honestly I'm baffled when people ask stuff like "why don't more people join Lemmy?" Because I honestly would not recommend it to my friends. While it's nice in some ways, it is also so very exhausting, and for me personally, worse for my mental health than Reddit ever was.

Rant over and obligatory disclaimer: I did not mean to insult anyone, I don't have anything against the ideologies and lifestyles mentioned in my post, I simply wanted to share my personal opinions.

I've spent too many hours googling this stuff without a solution in sight that I'm able to understand.

I am moderately new to selfhosting, especially the networking aspect. To put it simply, all I want is to be able to access my services through Tailscale by using subdomain.mydomain.com.

I have gotten so far to point my domain to my Tailscale IP (using Cloudflare's DNS), so that I don't have to copy paste the Tailscale IP, but that means I still have to type in the ports to the services. Between the posts saying Tailscale can handle this, to the ones saying Synology can do it, and the remaining posts saying to use a reverse proxy (and the ones saying reverse proxy are a bad idea because of Synology stuff) I am now very lost. The terminology is exhausting and everyone is already so knowledgeable that they skip the basic steps and go straight to complex, short answers.

I'd like to keep using Tailscale, as I don't want to deal with security issues and SSL certificates and all that, and if possible I'd like to avoid using a reverse proxy such as npm or Caddy if there's a built in Tailscale/Synology solution that works.

To me more services just means more stuff that can break, and I really just want this stuff to work without fiddling with it.

Thanks for any help you can provide

I am at my wits end with this and kindly ask for assistance.

I cannot for the life of me decide on how to set up my music library for the foreseeable future:

• I started out having my library on my local pc, managed by MediaMonkey
• As I bought a NAS, I moved my library to it and used Navidrome to stream it to an android app (Synfonium)
• This meant that I'd lose the MediaMonkey management, but I thought for now I'd just manually transfer new songs/playlists over to the NAS when needed
• As I started streaming with Navidrome, I noticed that the speeds were really bad and music often buffered (no idea why, Jellyfin works fine), so I cached all the songs offline
• This made me think that I don't even need Navidrome since at that point I could just copy the music files to my phone if they're gonna be offline anyway, but then I don't have a backup on the NAS

And now I'm kinda lost, unsure what the best way to handle this is. I'd like to keep MediaMonkey in the flow for library and playlist management, and streaming is pretty cool for those times where I'm listening on other devices. However, having the music on my NAS just seems to create an extra middleman. What's most important to me is a smooth mobile experience, with a good UI and no interruptions, as that is where I listen to music 95% of the time.

How do you do it ? Any suggestions for how to future proof my setup without too much of a hassle (still kinda new to all this stuff)? For reference I don't have a huge music library, maybe a few dozen GB, so it still fits easily on my phone.

Sorry if this was too long or doesn't fit the subreddit, but I hope someone can enlighten me.

And if so, would they get more prison time / a larger fine?

Ich gehe stark davon aus das ich in dieser Community dafür kein positive Reaktion kriegen werde, aber egal.

Wenn ich hier die ganzen Posts und Beschwerden lese werde ich immer ein bisschen verärgert, da konstant auf andere Verkehrsteilnehmer geschissen wird, ohne jemals zu adressieren wie die Mehrheit der Fahrradfahrer sich selber als Verkehrsteilnehmer verhält. Ich fahre sowohl Auto als Fahrrad regelmäßig, und es ist keine Übertreibung wenn ich behaupte das nicht mal 20 Prozent der Fahrradfahrer auf der Strasse sich ordentlich an die Regeln halten. Man fährt über rot, schlängelt sich gefährlich durch Stau, wechselt konstant vom Bürgersteig auf die Strasse so wie es gerade passt, und scheint einfach grundsätzlich das Motto zu haben "ich halte mich an die Gesetze, ausser wenn es gerade doof ist". Sogar wenn ich mit Freunden Fahrrad fahre, regen die sich immer darüber auf das ich bei rot tatsächlich warte weil es ja "eh egal ist".

Vieles muss noch getan werden um Städte besser für Fahrräder zu gestalten, und ich bin grundsätzlich pro weniger Autos, aber ein wichtiger Schritt meiner Meinung nach damit Leute anfangen Fahrradfahrer wirklich ernst zu nehmen auf der Strasse, ist wenn diese einsehen das sie keinen Sonderstatus haben nur weil sie ein kleineres und agileres Fahrzeug steuern.

Und damit möchte ich nicht sagen das Autofahrer (und fussgänger) heilige sind. Ich weiss wie gefährlich und idiotisch Menschen sein können, und wie gefährlich es ist nicht die Person in der Tonnenschweren stahlbox zu sein, jedoch bin ich fest davon überzeugt das wenn man ebenbürtig behandelt werden will, man sich auch am die gleichen Regeln halten soll, egal wie nervig das gerade ist. Ich fahre ja auch nicht im Auto über rot nur weil gerade niemand anders an der Kreuzung ist.

Und bevor jetzt Leute kommen die sagen "Aber ich mach das ja nicht", schön. Trotzdem passiert es vielleicht bei einem von 10 Malen, das ich einen Fahrradfahrer sehe der ordentlich fährt, so selten das ich mich teilweise richtig freue wenn es endlich mal passiert, denn das macht es auch für mich einfacher die Person mit Abstand und Vorsicht zu behandeln, wenn sie sich nicht unvorhersehbar und impulsiv verhält.
