What is a feasibility to implement IPFS for lemmys image hosting?

We have a bunch of instances hosting basically the same images multiple times. Using IPFS we could increase the availability of images for users with almost no cost to instances. I have heard rumors that pict-rs can’t be easily scaled up due file system based storage and would need a rewrite....

How to use CRT as extra monitor?

I have a Triniton Wega (480i) that I’d like to use as a separate monitor for streaming VHS rips and pixely PC games. My computer is a Win11 machine with a 2080, and I just tried usb-c output of the 2080->hdmi->component converter->TV and (to no one’s surprise) it didn’t work.

Why don't I see the newer phones in the Lineage OS list?

I’m starting to see not as many newer mobiles in the Lineage OS list as I used to.
