Thanks for your reply, I will definitely keep that in mind if Seafile fails to meet any critera moving on, but yeah your last point is also right, it would probably be a big pain to migrate out at this point with all my data for multiple users here.

It seems a lot has been modernising recently, I didn’t know they were also using Go, but hopefully they continue with it for new code.

The problem is that content rights holders setup bots that track who is torrenting media that they own (all the peers they can connect to).

Then they use your ip to ask your ISP to stop you.

As far as i am aware (and possibly wrong), magnet links aren’t any more secure than using a .torrent file, it’s just another form of it that can be easily clicked (or copied) to open in your client (i’ve never looked but it might just be a link containing the info that would be in the torrent file).

NextCloud being so slow forced me to migrate to Seafile.

Seafile being less one-stop-shoppy made me not use it so much, but whenever I do it is always fast and responsive (unlike nextcloud, where 80% of the time I was looking at the loading indicator). Looking it up now though, it looks like it has a lot of new features I haven’t yet tried so I’m probably gonna start using it more now.

Only downside with Seafile is it’s deduplication (for me), because it stops me from easily accessing files directly (always gotta use a client). Likely a benefit for most though and I do rarely need to access a file directly on disk, just when I do, it’d be an easy shortcut for whatever I’m doing.

Depending on where you live, it may not matter if you don’t use a VPN, you could possibly research what usually happens in your area?

Many people never get warnings, others ignore them and nothing happens.

Usually nothing happens because ISPs don’t care if you torrent, it wastes their time and resources when studios/content owners send dmcas (or whatever) and they have to send a warning. I bet the warnings are just automated for most isps so they can mostly ignore them. ISPs also don’t want to punish their customers because then they’ll lose revenue by cutting you off.

(The ignoring part is heresay, i’m just combining info i’ve heard over the years and experience)

Some (most?) countries it’s not illegal to torrent copyrighted content either, unless you distribute it (seed).

Lol I agree. The value is horrendous when you spec one of their products to have decent storage/ram, but nevertheless can’t fault the speed of their ARM chips.

I have no source, but I remember seeing a graph of where iPhones sell and places like China/India were 80% android phones (mostly Samsung I think).

I don’t think the asian marketplace puts Apple products in such high regard as the US.

Samsung phones are still premium, I think they appeal more in other countries.

I see what you mean though with 20% of just China being almost the US population, but they are still losing 300m customers.

Hehe that is funny, sadly I think the US is Apples biggest market, so they probably wouldn’t want to let go and give up any marketshare.

US usually is the most important market for most (international) companies I believe.

underpowered trash

I hate to say it, but it’s actually quite powerful trash that they produce.

Of course, I run EndeavourOS. My guess is that nowadays it doesn’t matter if you run amd or nvidia (likely won’t run into problems with either).

I’m not sure about the specific AI apps you mention, but from my personal experience the “AMD works way better than Nvidia on Linux” mindset is no longer a thing.

When I upgraded to a new gpu a few years ago, I first got an AMD gpu because of that mindset that was all over the internet (I believed them), but for the life of me I couldn’t get games to run properly with it. A week later I traded it for an Nvidia card and it just works.

I do suffer from system wake from sleep issues that I think are the nvidia drivers fault, but atleast I can play games if I decide to.
