Relay for Reddit app stays as one of the few remaining third party apps for Reddit and they are forced to go to a subscription model but the cost of such a subscription is related to how many API calls per user are done.

This screenshot was taken from the yet working patched Sync for Reddit app.

    Relay has a reason to charge a monthly fee, and sync does not.

      A developer wanting to get something in return for their work is a reason. It’s also an option for the user. Sync offers a one time payment for Ad Free and for their “Plus” features. It also has the option for a monthly subscription.

        135$ for the full app… sync is like the star citizen of lemmy apps

                Id suggest Proxmox as a great starter, some amazing scripts out there, supports some GPUs passed through to containers and VMs with tweaks

                    Proxmox Helper Scripts are an easy way to get a homelab setup, I’ve found its as complex as you want it to be:

                    https://tteck.github.io/Proxmox/

                    Easy to make a ZFS pool and share that to a container / VM. Pass-through a GPU to a VM / Container for transcoding. Plenty of tutorials online for these features.

                    I’m running some old hardware on my setup currently, 64gb ddr4 x99 platform with no issues and planning on moving to a more recent Intel consumer platform.

                    OMV can be run in a VM / Container on proxmox, but I find that’s redundant for a single node when using ZFS.

                    I feel the small hump in initial configuration of proxmox is worth the payoff for long-term expandability.

                    Saying so my views may be skewed as I migrated from w10 pro to proxmox, I’ve delt with some issues (from my lack of understanding of the platform), had some complete rebuilds of containers and am still dealing with the pains of having upgraded to the unstable channel; trying to migrate back to the stable channel.

                    All proxmox aside I’m planning on moving everything over to nixos after having it installed on my desktop and laptop for a few weeks now.
