Have been for a while. Decided to try to make a fake Facebook account mid-laat year to use marketplace since it’s the dominant platform in my area. As soon as I saw this I just closed the browser tab.

I’m guessing you don’t have kids.

Maybe they have kids…?

Now this is a good idea.

I thought with this for years. It’s unreliable and buggy on Android and iPhone. I caved and paid for some photo sync app and it’s been super stable.

That or folder sync on Android. Then feed into immich or photosphere.

I spent many nights running diff and comparing sources and destinations and md5sums and so on

Agree, but this is why I do both. Sometimes I listen to my local stuff and having a great time because it’s more refined

I didn’t read your entire post (sorry it was long 😅) but have you heard of lorawan? It’s a low powered long distance mesh network technology. I believe that’s what the helium project uses.

Lol it would break so much shit they just couldn’t.

Never. Same with GPUs. AI destroyed jobs, the gaming market, and customer service

Yup. Bs headline.

Have the lifetime since like 2012, every time a post like this surfaces I wonder if the contents of it are finally going to force my hand to use jellyfin instead
