A lot of the small cheap knockdowns aren’t metal, they are LDF or maybe MDF.

Ply is solid choice, I’d recommend an L bracket for the corners, 8 in total. For the casters get at least one locking, it’ll save some headache. I’d also get at least one vent or blank 1RU plate to make sure you’re lining up right between the rails, and to mount the rails with enough room top/bottom. A second set of rails for the back will let you double up on mounting front and back to make better use of the space if you’ve got low-depth devices to put in there.

Have fun!

Oof

A great domain name, too

(yes, that happened).

What was the site? With .af I bet it was a fun name

just that FOSS has problems unique to it that are rarely acknowledged.

None of the issues you’ve noted are unique to open source though.

All the FOSS offerings I can think of that are “too big to fail” have big corporate support

…

businesses don’t have that luxury. That’s why they use proprietary software.

Youre missing a few key things here.

• TONS of proprietary applications go years without work or effort
• TONS of proprietary applications/solutions get abandoned, leaving businesses and consumers to scramble for a solution.
• If the business relies on open source, they can contribute to that project.
• An open source solution also means continuity and the ability to fork when abandoned, proprietary solutions that are abandoned are just gone.

I wouldn’t put much agreement toward your argument for proprietary here, because I’ve seen (and had to deal with) proprietary solutions being abandoned with no workable solution available, especially as the current generation of proprietary solutions require a license server or other cloud-connected back end in order to work.

So when they get abandoned, its just over.

So no, this argument against open source for business has no merits IMO.

Which apps for Lemmy have a form of karma.

Voyager, for example, tracks how much you have upvoted or downvoted each user, which is so highly localized I can’t consider it a karma system.

The person you replied to is probably mad because they get down voted a lot for being shitty.

Probably any with tags is what they mean, considering I have them tagged as a transphobe, I’m sure lots of people have.

There is a whole lot to jellyfin that mpv doesnt cover.

I’m glad youre enjoying the setup, but its hardly a replacement for jellyfin in the vast majority of cases.
