Nextcloud Hub 8 is now available
  • What did you replace it with? In my case I love my Nextcloud because I have my calendar, adress book, tasks, notes, RSS feed, etc. all in one app but I'm interested to hear alternatives to it

  • German Coal Mines Emit 184x More Methane Than Reported to UN, Ember Says
  • It was never the Green party shutting down nuclear reactors but the conservatives in reaction to Fukushima. One of them even threated to resign if this doesn't happen. But now they blame it in the Green party because they are populists not caring about the truth.

  • What phone brand do you like the best?
  • I think if Fairphones get GrapheneOS support, it would be a no brainer for many. A phone you can repair yourself, which is fairly produced, with the safety and the absence of Google from GrapheneOS would be a good combo

  • I’m very picky
  • A bit off topic but I'm thinking about switching to Dvorak or Colemak and I'm concerned with the tactile bumps on the J and F keycaps. Did you leave them where they so you still got that tactile reference? Or did you switch them so they actually represent they layout?

  • Screen turns off for a second every now and then and mouse movement doesn't match witch display poll rate

    Hello, I use Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS and I got a strange problem without knowingly changing anything: Every now and then my primary display turns black for a second and then back on. My secondary display is working fine. My speakers are also connected to the display, so I'll hear a sound from them when it happens. I can't make out exactly what causes the turning off/on, but when I don't touch anything, it happens less frequently than when I'm working, switches windows, etc. Furthermore while my display works well with 144Hz refresh rate, my mouse input works at a noticably much lower refresh rate. I tried restarting my PC and replugging my DP-Cable and power cables. I'm relatively new to Linux so I don't know what the causes could be. I hope someone can help me :)

    Infinity for Reddit's latest update...
  • I'm generally willing to pay for a service (I donate to Open Source Projects I regularly use) because of course there are server costs, development costs, etc. But in this case and after all that Reddit has done to its user base it would be a very bad signal to give them money for it... I like Infinity for reddit and would love to have an Infinity for Lemmy

  • Selfhosting Location History
  • I agree, the first two problems are rather easy to solve with phonetrack or any other of the tracking apps like µlogger, Owntracks, Traccar, etc. and nextcloud or the backend you provided. What is the reason that the simple heatmap is not ideal? Does it also lag or are you looking for filters functionality, etc.? The data pre processing must be challenging cause thats the part really seperating the self hosted solutions to Google's one. If one could pre process the data on a nextcloud server and could render it on a map without significant lags, that would be really cool. Maybe I'll try to work on that in the future when I got more advanced in programming.

  • Selfhosting Location History

    Hello, I'm looking for a good tool to selfhost some kind of location history similar to Google's one. To have some data I can test the tools with, I merged every of my bicylce and hiking tours to one GPX file containing 7000km worth of travel. Then I tried this tool, but it really lags with so much data and every move and every zoom takes some seconds to load. Next I tried the "Phonetrack" app on my nextcloud instance, but this as well lags and I have to activate every track manually and they are color coded. I really like the connection between the phonetrack app on my Android and the nextcloud app, but I am afraid that I'll eventually run into the same performance problem when I gathered enough data. I've seen that theres OwnTracks, but it seems you have to set up your own server and I don't want to pay extra next to my nextcloud subscription. Do you know of any kind of location history tool I can use that can handle big amounts of data?

    EDIT: I now found a solution I'm very happy with: I still use the Phonetrack app with my Nextcloud and komoot to track my biking/hiking tours. I found a python program that downloads all my komoot tours (https://github.com/ThePBone/KomootGPX) in a folder on my Linux Desktop. I also mounted my nextcloud to my Linux filesystem, so I'd have access to the Phonetrack exports. I wrote a Java program that takes all the gpx files and converts them to a JSON file similar to the original Google Location History JSon file. That all happens automatically once in a week with an anacronjob. Finally I use this tool (https://github.com/theopolisme/location-history-visualizer) to visualize all the data. I've not run into performance issues with this unlike with the other apps I tried. I plan to change this program so I don't have to got through the steps with selecting the file, etc. but this is my current implementation that I'm very happy with. Just leave me a message if you need my Java file to achieve the same :)
