Oh I nearly forgot but specifically Prime Video is indeed a service that allows direct movie downloads, thanks for the suggestions!
Altough…now that I’ve looked at it more closely and if I understood it correctly:
I’ll try it out as soon as I can, but if true then this is just a horrible experience.
Often times on this sub there’s always an alternative being proposed, so I’m a bit shocked that this time most of the answers are simply “no”.
I have nothing against buying what I enjoy. But I also want to use my own streaming service (be it Plex or Jellyfin), I want to watch it offline, I want to not live in fear that it gets taken away, and most importantly I want to know that atleast 50% of my money rightfully goes to the artists of said content.
As I’ve said in another comment, it’s shocking that even the notoriously copyright-obsessed music industry allows retailers to sell high quality digital copies, while the film-industry just plainly doesn’t.
Not OP, but here’s my experience: It’s very rare on my end and happens while browsing for posts that link to a website. I wouldn’t really classifiy this as high priority, since I suspect that it’s the fault of the website, and the wording of the error message in Eternity simply leads one to believe that it’s exclusively Eternity’s fault for not loading the image. Here’s an example in Eternity:
And here is the same post in the web UI:
Happens to me as well, but differs from link to link. 90% work :)
Of course! I’m too deep into Linux now, and how could I switch back to the old ways when the Linux community is just so incredibly kind like this :P
About the search tip, I read somewhere that Bazzite is a skin of a skin of a skin. So in general I’ll remember to search for the upstream base if I can’t find anything, got it.
Oh and seriously, please don’t search for the other three, I know how tedious it can be and you’ve helped more than enough. I even got NordVPN working thanks to your link, so I’m more than satisfied! Armed with this new knowledge I’ll do the rest myself, and I was also planning to switch to ProtonVPN anyways, that’s one way of solving it :) But again, a huge thank you for helping me out!
Thanks for the encouraging words! That’s actually very relatable and I hope that moment comes soon. But I’m also learning new stuff about Linux on an almost hourly basis and it’s a lot of fun. Oh, and it’s so rewarding when something finally works!
Hey!
So I’ve managed to find the time and install tlp and I’m already hugely grateful for that. You were right, and it was really just as easy as typing “sudo rpm-ostree install tlp” and it worked just like it would with apt or dnf. 1/5 done!
But sadly the other ones weren’t so easy.
I’ve basically accepted my fate and given up on these last three programs, and it’s largely my fault for wanting to install stuff that hasn’t been made to work on an OS like Bazzite just yet. But maybe you can spot a rookie mistake or something that might help me again! Regardless of that, a huge thanks for your help and I’m glad I’ve got some programs to work while also learning something new along the way :)
Just wanted to chime in and give a +1 to Anytype. While I haven’t self-hosted the backup node and I can’t help you with that just yet, the fact that a free, P2P decentralized, end-to-end encrypted and source-available notes app like Anytype even exists is awesome!
I’d be curious to see if you manage to get the backup node up and running 👀
Thank you so much for the hint, I sporadically read the word “rpm-ostree” but never thought that it was related to my issue. I’ll do some research on it tomorrow and keep you updated!
Very insightful, thanks. All this does seem very fishy at best. Best to stick with LibreOffice then.
Not an expert, but I think they’re actually Latvian.
Damn, you’ve definitely put in the work. Thank you for providing such a detailed feedback, meaning that thanks to you this is now the most up to date resource on how to move from Note Station to Joplin for future peeps that have your same problem!
I think you can rest assured that you’ve made the best choice in moving to a more flexible format now, regardless of any future “Joplin vs. Obsidian vs. whatever” discussions that might come up. Because if you’re annoyed with Note Station now, I can absolutely guarantee that moving decades worth of .nsx notes for all your family, potentially manually, would have been hell on earth in the future.
One last experiment, now that you can: Let’s say you wanna move from Joplin to Obsidian tomorrow. These are the #1 and #2 results when searching for “Import Joplin to Obsidian”. Just take a look. It’s almost comically easy compared to now, so I’d say bright times are ahead :)
Ahh yes, the well known dilemma of “data portability”, also know as “If you can’t leave with your stuff, you might as well stay with us”. That’s something I’d definitively recommend you look out for in the future, here, I’ll make the first step for you [for Joplin]:
As for your problem at hand, imma be honest chief, it’s not going to be perfect. You have two options, but both of those options will require that you manually adjust some notes, that’s just a consequence of today’s world in which different note apps are built completely different and there not being a universally agreed on format that can easily contain all the contents of a single note in one file. Synology using their weird format doesn’t make it easier either so you’re going to have to put in the work to break out of that file format first. This is true regardless if you ultimately decide to switch to Obsidian, SilverBullet, MoeMemos, Nextcloud Notes, you name it. With Joplin at least, you’ll be able to automate the import of 98,9% of all your notes, but even that still means that you’ll have to manually adjust some notes. Here are your options:
Automate the process:
Copy-paste each note:
Lastly, my personal experience: I moved from Google Keep to Joplin and I know nothing about scripts or code, so I copy-pasted most of my notes manually into Joplin, downloaded the attachments and added them manually, then reformatted the notes manually. It was a pain in the ass. But nowhere near as painful as importing 1000, 20’000, hell possibly 100’000 notes that will probably accumulate in the years to come. Importing them in a different note app would be straight up inhuman or at the very least impossible without a script, so I’d personally recommend you and your family make the switch to a more flexible file format right now, while you still can.
Good luck!
Dope! Lemmy know (;) if you have other questions.
Hey!
Correct me if I’m wrong, but Joplin has all of what you’re asking for and if you self-host, even a few more big things like note sharing and note collaboration.
As for multiple users: You can have multiple users (“Profiles”) locally inside the app, or if you mean different accounts altogether, you can indeed have and manage them all in your own self-hosted Joplin server instance. Again, Joplin has collaboration and that necessarily entails more than one user/account! But we might mean two different things, happy to help in either case :P
Edit: added collaboration.
I may or may not have been in you exact situation for a while :)
If it’s not too much of a hassle, let us know what you end up doing!
Hey, thanks for the suggestion! The website does work for me (although the web-app doesn’t, yeah). As for the project: Decentralized sharing, on-chain DRM, p2p social features and payments? The project seems ambitious to say the least. Although many of its features stand in stark contrast with what Disney, Apple and co. currently exploit, so I doubt they would ever have the motivation to join in.
I’m going to follow its development for sure, thanks again for shining a light on it.
