#veilamp

Got #veilamp running inside a Debian #incus container. And a #nix flake sort of working (though the window chrome is off). Learned a bit about alsa and pipewire. Why do I have to make everything difficult? 😅 I need to build up a library again! I've gotten complacent stream-ripping most of my music with #NewPipe. Which works (but for how long) and quality is garbage. Projects like this make you want to become the net we should have had. It makes me want to do better. The world needs #veilid now more than ever.

For those trying out #Veilamp for the first time, here’s a helpful hint! When sharing your library with friends, you need to do two things: 1.) select what you want to share. It’s done via playlists, so select the playlist(s) you want to share and click the share button. 2.) set up the mutual authorization - either provide your friend your friend code, or have them provide theirs - consuming it sets up mutual authorization which allows the streaming to work. After that, you’re all set!

#Veilamp really kicks the llamas arse!
