There are two types, by map and token to conform to different usecases.

Ahh, ok… I’m seeing the docs.

ShareType: type of share

    token: token-based share (do not require user authentication)
    map: map-based share (requires user authentication)

Ahh, ok. So whether you need authentication or not.

There are also two different storage types, csv and files.

And the docs for that…

CSV

One CSV file containing one row per sharing config, separated by ; and containing header with columns from above.

If given, properties are stored in JSON format in CSV.
Files

File-based configuration store is using encoded PathOrToken as filename for each config. File contains the data stored as "dict" in binary Python "pickle" format (same is also used for item cache files).

So if you want plaintext vs binary storage.

you have to edit your config file with the ‘[sharing]’ section.

Would you mind sharing your config, pretty please. 🙏

Yeah, I’m aware of Headscale. I even think it’s cool that Tailscale isn’t trying to kill them: https://tailscale.com/opensource#encouraging-headscale

Tailscale is Canadian

Ah, nice. I actually didn’t realize that. They are also open source friendly https://tailscale.com/opensource I don’t hate Tailscale, btw. They seem nice.

But, I like Netbird lets you self-host the server components. And, an important feature for me, is that Netbird doesn’t require me to create an account with Big Tech to use the service. Right now I created a dummy account with GitHub just to use Tailscale, Netbird just allows me to create a username and password. E-Z P-Z. No extra hoops to jump through.

After switching to Netbird, I’ll be able to get completely off of GitHub.

Nope. I’m trying to move further away from US proprietary tech, not towards it. I’m currently using Tailscale, but I’m looking at moving to Netbird because it’s open source and European.

Sounds like an AI SlopTuber.

for why using it “responsibly” is super hard, even if you’re an expert. We’re hardwired to take mental shortcuts, so we might not even realize we’re using heuristics or falling for cognitive biases when fact checking the AI.

but used responsibly

That’s like the most incredibly hard part of all of this. Everything is aligned so that you don’t use it responsibly. And it’s really hard to guard against this.

Just a few days ago, I was pairing with a coworker and he was using Claude to do a bunch of stuff. He didn’t check any of it. I thought he was gonna check stuff before pushing stuff… And nope! I said, “Wait, shouldn’t we review the changes to make sure they’re correct?” And he said, “Nah, it’s probably fine. I trust it. Plus, even if it’s wrong, we’ll just blame the AI and we can just fix it later.”

…

Yes, checking the work would have negated all of the “time saved” and he was being a lazy fuck.

People who don’t like coding or engineering use this and they are not interested in using this responsibly.

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/

Just ordered a Sony Xperia with SailfishOS! I hope you’re right! 🤞

(FYI just in case: SailfishOS is NOT an Android fork! I didn’t realize this until recently.)

What’s the point of YouTube premium again? uBlock Origin works on laptops, tablets, and phones. Smart Tube works on TVs.

Is there some live sports thing that it’s bundled with or something?

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!”

Stupid click-bait headline. It makes it sound like Wikipedia has an AI agent, “Wikipedia’s AI agent”.

Wikipedia’s AI agent row likely just the beginning of the bot-ocalypse

Should be this:
