I am currently rocking a Shanling M2X which I bought secondhand for €75,- from the local classified ad websites.

Officially supports up the 512Gb but according some reviews it can do up to 2Tb microSD cards ( https://headfonics.com/shanling-m2x-review/ ). I currently have a music collection of about the same size. The Shanling M2X can drive all the IEMs I throw at it, has enough file system support to read just about anything and has WiFi and Bluetooth. Although the WiFi can only be used to wirelessly sync files (which can be a pro but also a con, depending on how you look at it).

However if you don’t feel like going secondhand, Shanling offers a whole bunch of devices meant for offline playback of local files.

Theoretically, support for that could be coming… Emby (where Jellyfin is based on) always used their own layer for interacting with a SQLite database. All that custom made logic is currently being swapped out for EF Core. EF Core is a DotNet library for interacting with databases and EFCore that also supports MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQL Server besides SQLite.

So my guess is that, once all that work is completed, support of other database can be added.

For a little bit of context. I am currently running Jellyfin on Btrfs and there is quite a performance impact due to CoW. If 2 clients decide to browse the libraries, both clients grind to a near standstill with regards to being able to see things. So I am following this work with quite some interest.

I found an IRL example of posting from Mastodon to Lemmy. https://toot.wales/@TedWard/110525084569783103 and https://feddit.nl/post/21098.

I just tried it out on one of my posts on @[email protected] using my own Mastodon account @ mastodon.online.

So: This is the thread plus the reply on the within Lemmy: https://feddit.nl/comment/64732 and this is the response on the Mastodon side of things: https://mastodon.online/users/SuitedUpDev/statuses/110533351473236807

I don’t know where I found it, but I did find one thread by person that experimenting with posting from Mastodon to Lemmy.

They both operate on the same protocol called ActivityPub. So that mean it is possible for Lemmy users to interact with Kbin communities (or magazines, as they call them) and for Kbin users to interact with our communities.

Technically it’s also possible for Mastodon (since that also uses ActivityPub) user’s to reply to posts here… It’s not very user friendly, but it is possible.

I am all for spawning up your own instances. The thing is, that’s not always feasible for everybody. Hence my comment ;-)

I am not on lemmy.ml but I have gone through the great Twitter migration. But yes, the servers are most likely smoking right now with all the extra traffic. Not to mention the fact that the underlying code isn’t tested for this amount traffic.

Moral of the story, patience. Server upgrades are on its way and additional code fixes will happen 😊

Yes… I know that Mastodon also has this “issue”. You can migrate to a new profile, and on your old profile it was say something like “this person has moved to X”, but you can not move your post history.

When life gives you lemons, you make Lemmy? 🤔

Thank you!

Just out of curiosity, where can I find those stats?
