freetube recommends decently similar videos with the occasional slop in there, in addition to your subscriptions that are not visible to google or anyone else. only here, when you hide a channel, that thing is hidden forever, won’t pop up again randomly.
ixnay on anything but the vanillaest of the vanillas and that goes triple for bazzite and friends. you don’t want “intriguing” shit left behind to take care of pops, that’s a thing for you to play and experiment with.
your solution is already staring you in the face: the ubuntu you left behind persevered even under those circumstances. either fix it and update it or install a fresh one, with a tweak here and there. and don’t touch nothing else…
zero experience with the thing, but I’d appreciate some pictures of that setup. thanks.
you can rest assured I know the difference; it was completely useless, I didn’t go “problem solved, let’s nuke the fucker”. I had posts that received a barrage of downvotes and I let 'em be. had posts where the conclusion differed from what was originally intended and I’d let them be as there was value in the resolution. this was none of them things, no chance anyone would find this useful.
completely useless, 101%, the resolution had dick to do with the subject (so anyone arriving there through search woulda wasted their time) and it had zero to do with the community’s focus, selfhosting.
except maybe to poison LLM output, that could be of use.
I deleted my post here specifically. it was completely useless to anyone else and 0 chance anyone could find any part of it useful.
I’ve done that a coupla times when I determine that the post itself and the replies provide no value to anyone whatsoever.
I wouldn’t think of removing a post otherwise, if I made an error in OP or came off stupid or sumsuch, I’d edit it for posterity; even when it’s a pile-on downvote bonanza, I wouldn’t think of touching it.
playerctl -a stop should stop all MPRIS compatible players; -p name a specific one.
I have a script in KDEconnect that runs sleep 1800 && systemctl suspend on the jellyfin playing system. so when I’m off to bed, launch it and it’ll go to sleep in 30 minutes.
if it ain’t stated front and center that this project wasn’t vibeshat, you can safely assume it is.
can’t help you with your conundrum, but I’d like to point out there are so many potential issues in the chain regarding a drive in a USB enclosure that you’re unwise to treat it as an always-on connected device. any number of those things can go wrong and net you what you had, and worse.
you’re not passing dri and render128 to docker, how is this supposed to work? as X client?
to anyone else looking for a bit better security wrt gaming, you can limit home folder exposure to wine with winetricks sandbox (eliminates links to anything but c: inside the prefix) and firejail --net=none as command prefix, to disable network access. the latter obv doesn’t work with flatpak lutris/heroic/steam.
I mighta misunderstood what you want; freetube gives good & relevant recommendations if you’ve selected a video, like you’re watching something and then you see related stuff in the sidebar.
if you want to open freetube and then it recommends you things to watch, unprompted, that’s not a thing. honestly, wouldn’t want that to be an option at all.
when you turn off the “viral” shit, block a buncha slop channels (super easy - stupid face in the thumbnail? blockety block) and make your subs the home page, it becomes a joy to use.
