Doesn’t xmpp require a constant connection?

Looking at and/or incorporating Navidrome might be helpful.

At least for the first year.

Rust is straight up better than C. It’s safer and less prone to errors.

It’s not feasible to convert the entire Linux codebase at once. So your options are to either have a mixed codebase, or stick with effectively Cobol into 2020.

Also, do we just trust all these random libraries? Not just about malicious code, but also what kind of quality/usability are you including?

Big companies do not want to trust open package repositories. They attempt to take countermeasures (but how much can you do?)

The huge benefit of the standard library is that I can always trust it, and it will always be the idiomatic way to do things.

At the time, everything HTTP was supposed to be public.

Especially on mobile.

Its Ubuntu 24.04. When I started it, it took quite awhile and then said “there as a problem, please log out”.

Now that I’ve got it started (where I’m posting from now), it still refuses to arrange my monitors. And I have no idea what this 5th, 13.3" monitor is supposed to be.

It looks like my issues are related to this hardware. I guess that’s understandable. I thought this hardware would be transparent to the OS, and apparently it’s not.

If I hit apply here, it will fail and put them back in a line. I’ll also get around 4 fps and no cursor on the additional monitors.

I installed a fresh copy of, I believe, Debian. Wayland, for some reason, couldn’t handle 4 monitors, with one above the other three.

Not the issue I expected on a fresh install. Oh, and the biggest issue I had with Windows was copied straight into Linux. I want my (single) taskbar on a monitor that isn’t my primary.

I’m currently back to Windows. It was already going to be a rough transition, and missing the ideas I was looking for while also adding complications just hasn’t made it worth it.

Mumble is another strong, open source, self-hosted option.

You can get a RaspPi instead, and after a year or two you’ll have saved enough electricity to have paid for itself.
