As a python developer and user of websites, please no. The web is already a slow mess and my laptop is already spinning up fans on some websites that really shouldn’t do anything much more complicated than load text and images from a database and display them. CPython would make it exponentially worse. At least pick a sensible performance focused implementation.
Literally who gives a shit about Twitter at this point.
why linux will never be a viable solution on the desktop
Has been pretty viable for me for the last 7 years or so.
why self hosting will never take off
Literally who cares, the community stands to gain nothing from another few million novice users who don’t even know or care to learn how to formulate a question or usable bug report.
inb4 zoomers unironically want this
Other people’s computers. Never forget.
Right, but still nobody is forcing you to continue in a job which it turns out is not a good fit for you. I for my part would consider working on SpaceX rockets a dream job but I know I need at least 16h of downtime every day and a weekend, so that is just not gonna happen.
And even if other company cultures are not as mercifully transparent, IMHO complaining about having to mutilate yourself when you could have just as well simply quit and not mutilate yourself is a bit much.
edit: And I’m not saying a company with this sigma grindset bullshit work culture is perfectly fine. It’s not! That’s why it makes even less sense to me to pour your lifeblood into it when this crap doesn’t suit you.
But honestly, explain how this makes sense please. Why would anyone physically harm themselves to be able to stay with a company that’s apparently filled with assholes anyway. Money? There’s no paycheck large enough to make me slash my leg for it (edit: well, of course not none whatsoever…but nothing within an order of magnitude of a realistic salary). And surely unemployment benefits must be a thing in Canada too to keep you alive while looking for another job (in case you really feel you have to leave before finding something else).
Sorry but that sounds like bullshit. There is no logical sequence of actions leading from “your employer being an asshole” into “you having to slash your leg open” which wouldn’t first pass through “handing in your notice”. Unless you are a literal slave.
I dislike censorship more than I dislike having to constantly see posts by tankies and nazis, but only barely. I don’t want to have to advocate for defederation from obvious loony instances if there’s a possibility to just block them individually. There’s just not a single user or community I am interested in reading the opinions of with @lemmygrad.ml in their handle - it’s a perfect heuristic. So why not allow me to use it?
extraordinary claims, extraordinary evidence, yadda yadda
Docker containers usually have a negligible performance overhead compared to bare metal. Certainly it won’t make or break jellyfin usability whether it is running in a container or not.
Some further advantages in addition to the ones you mentioned:
edit: obviously you should still practice good security practices like requiring HTTPS, geoblocking etc. if you are open to the internet. Luckily there’s a fantastic container which pairs perfectly with the (imho preferrable) linuxserver/jellyfin container which provides this: linuxserver/swag. Just FYI
From a purely logical standpoint, given the number of strippers and porn stars out there, that statement must be true. It’s not quite something I can wrap my head around though.
