TBH it has not really been an issue for me. My biggest real beef is just that I prefer just having regular text files in /var/log instead of using journalctl. And I feel like it’s a Microsoft-style monolith that flies in the face of the Unix philosophy that I honor and revere.

Use any distro you like! Just make sure it is without systemd

I was being a bit loose. You can video record people in public – just not audio. Any audio on your video recording device makes it illegal.

There are 13 US states like this

As an American, I look forward to when Americans fire Mr Trump after publication of supportive “shared secrets” to Jeffrey Epstein and illegal placement of Ghislane Maxwell into a country club prison

Where I live, recording someone without their consent – even in public – is a crime.

I have personally argued both sides on this. Over time I have come to favor it.

EDIT: some background

It’s mindblowing how early in the game Windows became enshittified

“OMG you got a new CPU and harddrive, maybe this is a pirated copy…”

TBH I chose Funkwhale for my solution because it looked easy and out of the box, I just add a single Docker and subdomain to my existing site.

It wound up being more or less what you describe.

I may well follow OP’s guide and nuke my Funkwhale despite the work I put into it and the fact that it does basically work for its intended purpose

Question: did you consider Funkwhale , and if so why did you choose this other stack instead?

EDIT: fix link sry
