That's great to hear! I'm still trying to wrap my head around the federation concept itself so if you don't mind, I have a question for you. In the event the site did go under (which it seems like is not the case, yay!) what happens to our account? Will we have to create a new account on another instance? If so, will we be able to use the same username?
I did that in my garage a few years back to tinker around with linux servers. Just don't make the same mistake I did and buy the cheapest SSD on eBay. My friend group still hasn't forgiven me for letting our minecraft server get corrupted lol.
That's definitely where I went wrong. The sad part is I did make an effort to backup the mc server weekly. I had a cron job that would bring the minecraft server down, export the SQL db's for plugins, and copy the world / other config files into a tar.gz file and copy it to a hard drive raid also running on the server. I knew having raid wasn't a backup in itself, and also running it on the same server wasn't doing me any favors. The problem was the archive files were incomplete, but I didn't realize that until the SSD died and I went to restore the archive file. Still not really sure why they weren't complete archive files. I still have them, just can't open them. It's weird though, when I first set it up they totally worked.
Hashing! Why didn't I think of that when I created the original backup script haha. Low key might go write a new backup script and incorporate that. I'm running another private mc server for some friends, this time in the cloud cause I didn't want to deal with another crash. I would like to bring it back to running in my garage sometime.
Haha, I discovered him during Covid. I logged into Pandora one day and found some very old channels(?) I had created. Something Corporate came on and I was hooked!
Hey same! I got the notification in the app today and decided to make the leap to lemmy. Really hoping this takes off and come July 1st I'll be accustomed to using this platform instead.
A couple weeks ago I setup HDHomeRun for OTA access through Jellyfin. I was only getting a few channels (shocker...) so I tried dabbling with IPTV. I found this GitHub repository: iptv-org/iptv. It has an overwhelming number of channels. To be honest, there were too many channels so I deleted them all lol. Curious if anyone else has any recommendations. I'm mostly interested in watching football, so anything that would carry NFL games would be of high interest to me.

What are we listening to today?
Thought I'd see who's about and whether we could get a thread going on music recommendations from what we're jamming today....
Do you use reddit mostly through the app or web?
Because I only use web, on mobile and desktop. I can't live without adblock.

Are there recommended iptv providers by users?
