Of all the things you could do with your finite existence in this world, you choose to dispute the name of an open source selfhhostable bookmarking app
🤦♀️
Legally required to. If you don't protect your trademark, you lose it.
Is this even true or just a myth? From what I know, law doesn't actually mandate people to be jerkasses. Also at least in sane countries, you can't trademark words that are in the dictionary like "hoard" or "hoarder", since by definition they have prior art.

Good try, but I don't read MBA hallucinations or AI slop.
Well, Google is free, you can find the information if you like.
Nah, I chose DDG and got a better result, but thanks!
Rebuttal, it's called "hoarder"
And apple is called Apple.
I didn't say the law is good.
The company trying to enforce the trademark is not called hoarder nor do they have any apps called hoarder.
Oh good! Then they have no case and will lose.
They did not lose. The maintainer of Hoarder had to rebrand to KaraKeep, hence this post.
They didn't son win either, the dispute is ongoing.
Then they had a case
This looks really cool. Can anyone explain to me if a headless chrome browser is dangerous the way a regular chrome browser is? I'm only hesitant because I don't know
Almost. You want to make sure to keep it as up-to-date as you would a regular Chrome browser. It does almost everything a regular Chrome does, including running arbitrary scripts on websites.
Makes sense. The videos I saw about setting it up mentioned a headless chrome browser. But I'm new to self-hosting and didn't know if it had to be chrome or if you could use a better option, since you can use an OLLAMA instead of chatgpt for example
@ItJustDonn @486 Hang on, this runs chromium as root? That seems like a _really_ bad idea. And unnecessary, since there's a hoarder user installed later in the script...
