Is the old rentry.co megathread being deprecated?

I liked this app, but it forced auto update without an option to disable so I switched back to Telegram FOSS.

at least one of the pair needs a open port. people with open ports can download from you, the ones with closed ports can’t.

ed2k is still alive? like there are any real users?

just get an older thinkpad and remove the wifi/bt module

wasn’t autoplay here since like win98 or so though?

can’t seem to find this in the megathread, is this a safe site?

tbh I’ve never heard of that program at all. Could you share the link?

run pihole (or something similar) locally behind that vpn

never heard of them. i just use mobilism or 4pda

My understanding is that someone with port forwarding can find one without, but not the other way around. I enabled port forwarding for a while (without VPN) and my upload increased a lot. Though I’m a bit scared with my IP being linked to it so it’s off for now…

By web based I mean they’re not a native desktop program and such.

Just curious, but is there anything that provides background sync on iOS except iCloud?

Thanks. I’ve actually already seen it, but it wasn’t enough as it only listed web hosted solutions and I found most of them lacking for my needs. Thankfully others’ comments below are pretty inspiring :)

Thanks. I should try making my requirements clearer. I’m curious, is there a reason you use Resilio despite it being proprietary over other solutions(like rsync scripts)?

Seems like I’ll be going on a setup pretty similar to this. Thanks!

That’s great, I never knew Photoprism can detect and work with digikam’s sidecar files. Thanks for sharing.

Seems like Syncthing is loved by many :) Not too sure how much it’d differ from rsync scripts, but I’ll give it a try. Thanks!

I don’t have that much data now, I usually lack storage (or computer equipments in general) so I tend to not store much. Those laptops have about 1TB storage each so that would hopefully be enough for me now. As they’re old and have ODD I can also have two drives on one, but I’m not sure if that’s needed for me now. I’d avoid external drives as they aren’t really reliable.

I see. Thanks for sharing your setup :)
