Hey self-hosting people!
Is there any agreed collective term for distros like @yunohost or @freedomboxfndn which are specifically designed to turn a PC into a self-hosting server with a graphical interface for setting up services?
A self-hosting OS? Something else?
Techies of the Fediverse, can you help me out here? I have a 3rd generation #Chromecast which has been factory reset and I'm trying to reconnect it to wifi. Supposedly the way to set up a fresh Chromecast and connect it to wifi is with the Google Home app... but the Home app stubbornly refuses to detect the thing, even if I connect my phone to the Chromecast's own wireless network. I tried going through Google's documentation but it's hard to navigate and has little to suggest.
Does anyone have a creative way I can try to activate this thing? Or other troubleshooting suggestions?
Alternatively, if I don't wind up getting it working: any recommendations for an alternate, preferably non-Google, device to buy and hook up to my TV as a replacement? Ideally something that supports the Google Cast protocol (since it's a very convenient way to get stuff to show up on my TV), but I'm open to losing that capability.
I find it really hard to mask in English, no matter how much coaching I do of sentences, and try to add some pleasant stuff, it still comes across as too direct and weird it seems.
I wonder how people natively speaking english does this, maybe they just are more aware of how much overly polite language are needed and naturally feel less exhausted about having to put it in everywhere?
Any advice to get this running on Linux Mint for a noob? Missed out on playing this back in the day and sounds like something fun to try out while I wait for some medical stuff.
