Update: it works surprisingly well. I linked it to my Jellyfin server and the music is played very well, even on the go and even if the song quality is lossless. I haven’t quite figured out which UI design I prefer, still testing things out, but so far, I might consider a purchase

Judging by the reviews on the app store, it’s at least a 5-buck one-time purchase and not a subscription as well as a worthy purchase. I’ll give this a try

I rrecently built a home server and tried getting into Navidrome, but I kinda disliked the UI - didn’t feel as intuitive to me and kinda clunky. How do you listen to your music primarily? If on a phone, do you have an app to stream the music to you?

I wanted to get into Qobuz but couldn’t ultimately because the higher-res streaming killed my cellular. The app would freeze constantly when and music wouldn’t load properly when I’d try to stream it instead of playback downloaded music. I like the idea and it’s awesome that it’s higher-res music, but my phone couldn’t handle it

Oh, I missed that one. That’s a huge bump

Considering that ThinkPads are as beloved as they are for their repairability, I would have assumed Lenovo to score higher

Uhhh, maybe? I don’t quite know what these mean tbh and where I’d want to input that command at the bottom

TIL

It felt natural to call it velcro because that’s how I’ve always heard it being called, but I didn’t know it’s a brand name. German has a proper noun for these, and I assumed velcro is the direct translation

So velcro straps kinda, gotcha 👍🏻

Can’t quite find what you’re describing but the labels look cute

How do I do that for longer cables? As you can see, the distance between the ports isn’t too long but the cables are. I don’t wanna break any of the cables by mistake. Any ideas?

Possibly. It’s what the technician suggested getting if I’m on a budget

I guess my point still stands :D

Not looking forward to getting one, but I’ll deal with it should it come to that I guess D:

That’s such a huge compliment, thank you 😱✨ I hoped that my post might inspire someone, but I didn’t actually expect that to happen that quickly :)

I’m still very very new to this, so I’m probably doing stuff wrong - using guides like I did you could do all that too, I’m sure :)

The battery life isn’t amazing, but it never really was even when the laptop was younger. Maybe like a couple hours, likely less today

Okay, I see what you’re saying :D I’ll think about it the next time I need to do some tinkering. Might come in handy the next time I break something which is likely happening soon :P

Now that would be pretty nice

Thanks for the encouragement - I’ll give it a try! :)

I’ll get to seeding 8-)

I definitely see the value in documenting what I’m doing. What constitutes a documentation-worthy action to you? I feel like I could get lost in the sauce a little :D
