I currently use the official audiobookshelf app. It’s really slow and buggy for me. Every time I open it, it says it’s disconnected from the server. Then I have to click a button for it to reconnect.

What makes you say that?

They pulled the Signal messages from an iPhone… https://www.forbes.com/sites/larsdaniel/2026/04/10/fbi-pulled-deleted-signal-messages-from-an-iphone-without-breaking-encryption/

I would use a passphrase instead of a password. Make it a meaningful phrase and it’ll be hard to forget.

I had a password that I committed to muscle memory once… and then my muscle memory disappeared and my brain memory didn’t remember it… and… it was not good… 😅

Passphrase 1000% I’ve never had trouble remembering my passphrase.

Master Password hint be extremely obvious

Given that Bitwarden is on the cloud, where the whole world can access it, I’d say no…

you could set up an emergency access

Oooh, huh. TIL https://bitwarden.com/help/emergency-access/

I switched from Spotify to Navidrome+local radio. When I’m in the car, it’s been 100% radio recently.

I actually like a lot of the music on my local radio stations. Yes, it’s 10 songs on a loop, but they gradually change out the 10 songs. So 6 months from now it’s slightly different 10 songs. I also get to spend more time with each song, which lets me learn the lyrics or notice different parts of the song better.

Yes, there are ads and talking, but it’s not all bad. I like the ads for local businesses, restaurants, or events. The talking gets annoying sometimes, but most of the time it’s fine or, dare I say, even enjoyable. When the ads/talking gets too much, I just change the station. There are like 4-5 stations I cycle through. If they’re all annoying, then I just turn the radio down for a minute.

I also discover new songs from the radio that later I add to Navidrome.

Overall, pretty happy not paying for Spotify and not having to use my phone.

Tailscale is just more reliable and mature in my experience

What sort of issues have you run into? I’m currently on Tailscale, but was considering Netbird because it’s open source. (Also, I hate that Tailscale requires me to create an account with Big Tech to login.)

They seem pretty close in terms of features, at least in the simple cases.

Honestly, yeah. Lots of people in my town would probably be onboard and justify it. “This is a good thing because the radical left is crazy!”

Disagree with the US not being an ethnostate. If you’re not white, then it does feel like an ethnostate. I was born here, but I’ve always been made to feel that this isn’t my country. I’m a guest here. I’m tolerated (in the blue states), but not welcome. I’m constantly getting news that half the country hates people like me and wants me to leave (again, born here!)

But, uh, yeah, if you’re white or white-passing, then yeah, the US is your ethnostate. 👍

Is it safe to update yet? I just noticed 2.6.0 was released on the 19th and then a few hours later 2.6.1 was released…
