E-mail client alternatives to Outlook (Windows and Android) (lemmy.world)

Ever since I’ve came to the company as a sole Sys admin (where there was none before) I’ve tried to keep it simple as possible… everyone has MS Office Home&Business, I’ll move everyone to Outlook from the damn Windows Live Mail… and sure thing, I’ll also install Outlook on their phones whoever wants to have Email access on their phones.

And it’s been a mess… people on Windows complaining that they dislike the new Search inside Outlook, sometimes when they try to start it up it doesn’t even open but hangs as a dead process so I had to put a shortcut on their desktop that does ‘taskkill /IM outlook.exe’… it happens on both old Windows 10 setups and brand new Windows 11 setups of all kinds… Also they’re pushing their new look a bit by bit and I’m thinking of migrating to something else before it even happens

On Android sometimes it has hard time syncing with IMAP and the search is also broken… it doesn’t work at all if only one IMAP account is logged in, so I had to login a dummy IMAP email account as a second one because only then you get the search option of which directories to search for and only then it works… idk how else to explain this but I found many people complaining about the same thing and using a solution like this for years…

So, what are your top alternatives for Email clients? It doesn’t have to be free (but a one time payment would be preferable), but it has to be a stable and simple experience for the workers on both Windows and Android. Body

Which LAN/WiFi Zigbee coordinators are good for ZHA? (EU, Aliexpress) (lemmy.world)
 

Can you recommend me any good LAN/WiFi Zigbee coordinators for Home Assistants ZHA? Most preferable which can be ordered from Aliexpress or somewhere in the EU

Bonus question: are WiFi coordinators usually that much worse than LAN coordinators even if they're directly next to the WiFi router?

Downgrading FLAC albums to 320kbps in c/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

I'd go for MP3 V0 instead of 320kbps. Most will agree that the quality is the same but the size difference is quite noticable. I mean as long as you're going lossy, you might as well be efficient with it and not throw away space.

I tried Lidarr but gave up on it and I'm just using Beets right now for organizing and converting my stuff. I don't download music so often and a bit manual work isn't an issue for me. I use FDK AAC and encode everything to VBR4 which is then available in Navidrome, but keep the FLACs of course.

What are the best anime tracking sites? in c/anime@lemmy.ml

Sub integer rating sounds like a nice thing! Sometimes I miss the 0.5 step and simple 1-10 ain't really enough. I've used more rigorous scoring to achieve a better view of what I liked more on MAL which is a good thing, but nevertheless, I still miss that .5 I just might give Anilist a shot, I hope it supports importing from MAL

What are the best anime tracking sites? (lemmy.world)
 

Hello guys! I'm wondering what you guys are using and which anime tracking sites do you deem the best. Currently I'm using MyAnimeList, used AniDB but later on still returned to MAL even though AniDB seems more advanced. Not saying that MAL is bad, but I'm wondering if there are any alternatives worth using/supporting instead

I use Reolink Dorbell PoE. I had issues setting it up with Shinobi and AgentDVR but had issues with RTSP streams because it would record for some time and then the recordings would break all the time. Then I realized it works properly with an HTTP link rather than a RTSP stream.

Though that's before the firmware upgrades were released. Have you tried upgrading the firmware?
