  • Even if an external company makes it, they can add an open source mandate if they want. The US DoD is starting to mandate the usage of open standards for their contractors to increase inter compatibility and ability to extend those systems.

    Open source software has some value like making it easier for analysts to find security issues and the act of open sourcing software usually leads organisations to raise the quality because they don’t want to be ashamed of the code. Plus imagine the clout gained by a dev who got a bug fix merged in that millions of citizens get to use.

    A newer release, v0.6.30 is already released to fix an issue with OneDrive integration.

    Looks like they finally finally made their slim image tag smaller than the main image:

    ghcr.io/open-webui/open-webui:v0.6.30-slim    7c61b17433e8   46 hours ago    4.3GB
    ghcr.io/open-webui/open-webui:v0.6.30         c1ac444c0471   46 hours ago    4.82GB
    

    Though only saving .5GB of space is not very slim. I use OpenWebUI in my home lab, but this issue just made me question the quality of the project a tiny bit.






  • Gluetun doesn’t make any sense here. You’re forcing all the traffic for from Jellyfin to go through Mullvad, but you need to be able to connect to Jellyfin because Jellyfin is a service you connect to.

    Since your Tailscale is host network mounted, you’ll be able to expose your Docker network subnets over Tailscale then access Jellyfin. This is done via the TS_SUBNETS env variable. Docker will use a 172.16.0.0/12 subnet.

    You probably intend to gluetun your downloading software, not Jellyfin.







  • So I had a chance to try this out. It wasn’t on Google Play Store, only F-Droid. There isn’t really SSO support, you either login with User/Password or a token. Instead, I login with my browser, get the token and paste it in. That works fine, but an ideal world is just pop up an browser WebView and go through the flow, then grab the token. Maybe it was intentional, but PaperlessShare registered as an Open handler for PDFs and the share menu, whereas this is only share menu. This seems to mean that I need to grant file access, whereas the open handler didn’t need that I think.

    Overall, it does the job and gets my docs uploaded.


  • My prediction is that manually reviewing user creation won’t scale to a high level and unless systems develop spam detection and reputation management similar to email then it’s not going to be limited to just one or two bad instances.

    Its trivial to create my own instance with a new domain and there’s no limitations against sending ActivityPub messages to a server. Unfortunately the simplest fix is for big instances to restrict what instances can communicate to it, but that causes centralization.

    Plus, we don’t need to be huge. There’s no benefit from it.

    The benefit is breadth and depth of communities. Reddit is great because if you are interested in a topic, there’s a bunch of people talking about it.
