    1. Are you running as the systemd service?
    2. “Find” as in it doesn’t know where your folders are or “find” as in you told it where the media is but they’re not showing up? If former, configure your libraries in the UI. If latter, check logs, its probably a permissions issue.
    3. Can you log in to the webui from the host machine itself? If so but not other devices on the LAN, then there’s a probably a setting somewhere that’s set to 127.0.0.1 that should be 0.0.0.0.








  • Regarding the specific issues mentioned: Nvidia support is subpar on Linux. There’s many distros that are specifically designed to handle all the graphics support for gaming and Ubuntu isn’t one of them.

    Little bit of lore here: When I first started using Linux Nvidia support was better than ATI because they actually bothered to maintain a proprietary Linux driver. There were open source drivers for both but they weren’t performant. The proprietary ATI driver existed but it was maintained by one dude and required a goat sacrifice to install correctly. Since then, however, maybe after AMD bought ATI, they started investing in the open source driver. After that the open source driver just works and competes with the proprietary Nvidia driver. After that I’ve been brand loyal to AMD.

    LibreWolf chewing up 3.2Gb is regrettably just normal for a modern browser. Firefox and Chrome will do this too. I’d be genuinely impressed though if Vivaldi has avoided that.


  • Not much for open source solutions. A simple captcha however would cost scrapers more to crack than Anubis.

    But when it comes to “real” bot management solutions: The least invasive solutions will try to match User-Agent and other headers against the TLS fingerprint and block if they don’t match. More invasive solutions will fingerprint your browser and even your GPU, then either block you or issue you a tracking cookie which is often pinned to your IP and user-agent. Both of those solutions require a large base of data to know what real and fake traffic actually looks like. Only large hosting providers like CloudFlare and Akamai have that data and can provide those sorts of solutions.

    Costs of solving PoW for Anubis is absolutely not a factor in any AI companies budget. Just the costs of answering one question is millions of times more expensive than running sha256sum for Anubis.

    Just in case you’re being glib and mean the businesses will go under regardless of Anubis: most of these are coming from China. China absolutely will keep running these companies at a loss for the sake of strategic development.

    This is what I’ve kept saying about POW being a shit bot management tactic. Its a flat tax across all users, real or fake. The fake users are making money to access your site and will just eat the added expense. You can raise the tax to cost more than what your data is worth to them, but that also affects your real users. Nothing about Anubis even attempts to differentiate between bots and real users.

    If the bots take the time, they can set up a pipeline to solve Anubis tokens outside of the browser more efficiently than real users.
