Depends on what they settle on, especially for screen sharing. Many downscale content for people with weaker connections.

I currently have a Raspberry Pi 3 B+ but I’m aware it’s a bit old and is ARM so I’m thinking of buying a Pi 5.

The Pi 5 lacks a H264 hardware encoder/decoder, making it unsuitable for most streaming/transcoding purposes.

The EU store ships from the EU with warranty, support, etc. for quite a hefty premium. I ordered from the global store which ships from Hong Kong. Paid ~500€ a year ago (including taxes).

The display looks great and mine doesn’t have the stuck pixel or the buggy lines issue you experienced

They have since fixed that.

though I do have very noticeable ghosting artifacts

Unfortunately just the nature of the technology. If you’re just reading, DU4:3 works the best, for manga I use the full G:4 mode with screen refresh for every page flip enabled.

I wrote some custom profiles for each (Default, Book, Manga, Notes, Notes (Landscape) which I have on my desktop, I can send you the scripts if you want.

Couldn’t find a good way to use browsers on it yet since they all smooth scroll instead of jumping in fixed intervals.

I left mine running over night with KOReader open, Nextcloud in background, no suspend and it took 20 hours and 10 minutes to go from 100% to 10%.

As @poweruser@lemmy.sdf.org wrote, there is a pretty significant phantom drain where it loses about 15% per day when suspended.

I have used the same tip for a year and it’s still fine. It also comes with 2 tip replacement and all of the generic pens for EMR screens work on the Pinenote.

Can’t say much about the battery life but I’m going to leave it running once it’s fully charged and report back.

I have one, I wrote a small review for it last year: https://domistyle.gitlab.io/pinenote-2024/ (enable autoplay so the videos play).

You can test Xournal++ and KOReader on any Linux desktop, it’s what works best on the PineNote right now.

They also have an active Matrix group where the main developers are present.

I don’t hate LTT but they are mostly an entertainment channel nowadays, not a review channel.

Their reviews are focused on sponsored products, sometimes wrong and most of the time don’t go into much depth. Not to mention the countless ads, sponsorships and clickbait.

If somebody likes them, more power to them, but I don’t go to LTT when I need information about something.

I can’t speak for client capabilities on Apple devices, but what’s your server hardware? CPU or GPU transcoding?

I have an AMD GPU in my server and have no issues transcoding AV1 and H265 for my lesser capable clients.

You can also setup Jellyfin in parallel to Plex and give it a whirl.

Sir, this is a /c/selfhosted.

2027/2032 is still some time away.

However, accessibility features provided by third-party applications may be worse in some aspects. Please open a bug report if you have any special requirements that we don’t cover yet! This is an active topic we’re very interested in improving.

Let them know what you need.

I bought a Model 3 SR+ in 2019 because it was pretty much the only decent option, also still driving it.

BYD and other Chinese brands were not available here yet and German manufacturers were asleep at the wheel.

The best coming out of Germany at that time were repurposed chassis from ICE cars, with all the flaws that brings. The Leaf lacked water cooling on the batteries.

The best alternative at that time was a classic Hyundai Ioniq but it had a 28 kWh battery where as the Model 3 SR+ had a 52 kWh battery for 10.000€ more.

Since you own an e-Golf, just to put some numbers on this. (e-Golf left, Model 3 SR+ right)

• Efficiency: 168 Wh/km vs 146 Wh/km
• Battery: 32 kWh vs 52 kWh
• Fast charging: 39 kW vs 105 kW (later patched to 170 kW peak)
• Acceleration: 9.6s vs 5.6s 0-100
• Weight: 1615 kg vs 1700 kg
• Price: 32.000€ vs 45.000€
• Charger network: Whatever ionity was doing vs Superchargers

Do you mean Zigbee in general or the ZBT-2?

In addition to these guys knowing what they are doing and pushing firmware updates straight through Home Assistant, every purchase also supports the Open Home Foundation.

I’m pretty sure you can achieve similar performance with cheaper dongles.

When they first released ZHA the interface was very barebones compared to Z2M. I saw the current Home Assistant interface in their stream on the ZBT-2 and it looks a lot more like a proper Zigbee interface now.

I don’t think there is going to be much of a performance difference between ZHA and Z2M, mostly just how you interact with it.

I have been waiting for them to release the Zigbee equivalent to their ZWA-2. Ordered one.

Does anybody use Zigbee directly in Home Assistant? I’m currently still on Zigbee2MQTT but I’m wondering if I should switch over to the Zigbee integration in Home Assistant.

Yes, but that doesn’t help you with the large providers (Gmail, Outlook, …) unfortunately.

I finally moved my mail server from Hetzner to my homelab.

Pretty smooth sailing so far. For now I’m using Scaleway for outgoing mails since I can’t set a PTR record here but I might just try sending a few without PTR to see how other providers react.

Does it do replaygain? The only feature I’m lacking on desktop Finamp right now.
