Yep. I have an instance I self-host to power a "cookbooks -> scanner -> images -> OCR -> indexed search" tool I built for myself. The whole thing is pretty much just a few bash scripts thinly wired into a Meilisearch instance, but the utility is helpful when looking for a recipe from my collection.

I've been working on contributing options in my neighbourhood. I use

[out:json][timeout:25];

// Food-ish amenities
(
  nwr["amenity"~"^(bakery|fast_food|restaurant|cafe|pub|biergarten|ice_cream|food_court)$"]({{bbox}});
)->.all_food;

// Items that already have diet:vegan tags
(
  nwr.all_food["diet:vegan"];
)->.has_vegan;

// Output the difference
(
  .all_food;
  - .has_vegan;
);

out body;
>;
out skel qt;

to locate, check menus, and update.

My post may well be tainted by my growing frustration with HappyCow growing increasingly out of date in my region. I frequently find restaurants listed that have long since closed and new restaurants not listed at all. But criticism in my workaround and its deficiencies has been wholeheartedly acknowledged and appreciated.

As a counterpoint to no proxmox, I get a lot of utility in being able to entirely destroy and reprovision VMs. I get it adds a layer of complexity, but it's not without its merits!

With respect to the media, you can mount the volume as read only, preventing Jellyfin from accidentally wiping your underlying content.

Honestly, I'd argue it's about both.

Imagine being a staunch supporter of party X that gets involved in a scandal. 90% of the MPs defend the scandal, while 90% of the party X voters oppose it. With proportional representation the party could split and voters could support party X2 and actually have a voice.

As it stands, voters get fucked with a "keep supporting us or you're letting your enemy win". I think the above applies to Liberals, Conservatives, whomever.
