What platform you on?

Definitely this. I run a home lab, six servers, and I use Synology Photos because it’s so much better than the self hosted alternatives.

I have no skin in the game for the app itself, I just saw your post on the “front page” while scrolling and shitting….

there are 30,000 files

I’m more intrigued why you appear to be managing this with files. Why not use a database?

Edit: you’re also not handling misses very well. I just tried a random string and got the below error. That doesn’t tell me if it was my fault or a server error.

An error occurred while processing your request. Please try again later.

If you’re talking about a SimpleLogin, you CAN email from it. I forget the exact terminology (I can check if you need) but you can generate a forward address that you email and the receiver (Spotify) will see it as If you have emailed from your forwarding address.

So somebody wanted to broaden their understanding by asking a simple question and you decided to be a dick?

Maybe they didn’t have time to read the article and thought somebody would help.

What you mean

What you mean

I did end up creating an account, but I’m not sure about posting my handle here as I want to keep the things separate (especially as I’m using my name on mastodon).

Aha! Sounds like we just have different definitions of “content creator”, that just sounds like a normal account to me.

This was probably just me confusing things =]. I used to post all my blog posts etc on Twitter, but I have no intention of doing that on Mastodon. I didn't spend enough time ensuring there was a distinction between the two platforms.

Fyi it’s also a custom to make an intro post when you join, tag it with #introduction and just let people know what to expect from your account. Load it up with the relevant tags so people watching them find your account, it’s usually a good way to kick things off and get some initial followers.

Ah ok, thanks! I have already started posting but I'll do that anyway. Thanks :)

Thanks! Maybe I’ll give it a go then!

I assume this one? https://lemmy.ml/post/1855875

Edit: it’s mostly people assuming they lost the domain. I’ve seen nothing confirmed yet.
