  • Right now I’m using Synology Surveillance Station, but I’d like to replace it (or just supplement it) with Frigate.

    I’ve succeeded in setting Frigate up with two cameras and person detection turned on (though no Coral accelerator, so it’s slow and ressource hungry), but now I can’t figure out how to get Home Assistant notifications once a person is detected while my “Home Mode” toggle is turned off in home Assistant.

    I’m not good at actually making things happen in HA. I’ve managed to make lights turn on and off via MQTT (output from RTL_433 which listens to some wireless light switches I have), but that’s more or less it.





  • The “mod virus problem” will never truly be solved. New infected mods are always popping up, and always will be. It’s an easy way for hackers to infect computers, since kids blindly install random mods all the time. Only install trusted and well-known mods, and only download them from trusted sources, to minimize risk.


  • but not every instance is necessarily running Lemmy right? Or are all the different sites like beehaw and kbin and such also running Llemmy?

    Most instances are running Lemmy (the software). Kbin (the software) is an alternative to Lemmy (the software), though they can speak to one another, because they both use the ActivityPub protocol (same as Mastodon, PeerTube, Pixelfed, and so on). Kbin is much younger than Lemmy, but eventually more instances running Kbin will show up.
