You can also selfhost it and get the premium features for free.

If you enjoy researching, tinkering and customizing everything exactly how you envision it then build a custom one. If you "just" want to use the thing and run some docker containers then buy a NAS. From what you wrote I think a NAS is what you are looking for, especially the low maintenance part. Just make sure it's not the most basic one, so it actually has the power to run what you need.

The one great thing about Synology NAS is that most things are right there in the UI or package center. You can just install them without researching 100 different alternatives, and configure them in the UI instead of config files. What's not there can be installed just like on a custom server, because it is just a regular server after all. You also get good customer support if something doesn't work, especially useful when you're not as knowledgeable in everything yet.

Idk why you're being downvoted, you are 100% correct!

Don't drag vampires into this! My boy Astarion tried it only once and kept his word since then!

Just create a script that calls all the update commands. That's how computers work. Your apt/dnf/whatever command also calls many other commands to do its job.

And broke all the time, and was a nightmare for devs to create and maintain packages for multiple distros, and was hard to find packages outside the official repos, and could create a package version hell, and had only a very rudimentary permission system.

Change is sometimes not a bad thing, you know?!

Ok this kinda works, ty!

But there still seems to be some issues with the relative font scaling. I have to crank up the base font size quite a bit in order to get a decent size for the editor, but then fonts are huge in all the other places. It can be fixed for posts and comments since they have their own options for it, but not for UI elements like the settings menu.

I think what's missing is a dedicated setting for the editor font scaling, or making it the same as post/comment font size.

Thank you for your great work! :)

The one issue I have is that the text is very small while composing comments, and I haven't found a setting to change that.

Here is a screenshot.

One idea: Community owners can link their community with another, like friend requests between communities. From that point they act like one community with multiple owners. Everything is duplicated, and that includes removing content and banning users. Client side apps can show them as one community.

YT addons generally don't work on Piped, but some of the most popular ones are already built in, like SponsorBlock, DeArrow and Dislike. It does show comments, but you can't post any comments yourself. HDR videos should work since it's just pulling the video files directly from YT servers.

You can just try it out, simply replace "www.youtube.com" with "piped.video" in any YT video or channel url.

It does say "No Virus" in big letters, so what could go wrong?
