Hello wizard,
May I ask what ur favorite "document management system" is (hopefully containerized in docker)?
Not a wizard, but I'm finding my docker configuration of paperless-ngx to meet my minimal needs.
Thanks!
There are several document management systems (DMS) that can be used on Debian and Android and can be synchronized using Syncthing. Here are some options:
Paperless-ngx:
Mayan EDMS:
LetoDMS:
ProjectSend:
These systems can be synchronized with Syncthing by setting up shared folders that are monitored and processed by the DMS. Syncthing itself supports the synchronization of metadata and can be used on various platforms, including Debian and Android.
Ist that just LLM slop?
Its slop if its useless or wrong. If it is i will come back and edit it. I need to test it first.
I guess if people want to read answers generated by an LLM, they would just ask one.
... And now they can skip one step! Win!
The anti-AI morons on Lemmy can’t or won’t tell the difference. They think “slop” is just a term for any LLM-generated (or refined) content. There’s no nuance to their thinking at all. They don’t assess the quality of the information provided or how the tool is actually being used.
Given the sources don’t really back up the content, I think it’s safe to say this is slop. You should probably proof AI slop before you white knight it next time.
The question was about document management systems that can be run in docker. The LLM response listed four document management systems that can be run in docker.
Was it a perfect response? No.
Was it a useful response? Yes.
Was it a better contribution to the discussion than yours? Lol.
The current thread is about AI slop, not DMS. You helped create the branch we’re on. You said “people on Lemmy can’t tell slop from useful info.” I said “this is AI slop because the sources don’t match,” assuming that I wouldn’t have to explain the hallucinations (fabrications is a bit better here) because that usually comes with slop. Since the current thread is about whether or not slop is meaningful, I have no idea what you added by saying “hey I attacked someone for not liking AI then attacked someone else for a refutation of the AI that I was white knighting.”
The thread was actually about document management systems
Yawn.
Thanks... but I wanted advice from a wizard, not one of their electric golems
As far as Linux and free software are concerned, I am one of the wizards. LLMs won't go away. The question is how you use them. The knowledge they contain far surpasses mine. I ask good questions and extract the knowledge I can use.
As the 'wizard' in this little tale, I can't really expand on what the golem has suggested, if self-hosted and open source is what you're after. They seem like solid suggestions as a starting point.
My experience is more in the 'enterprise' realm, dealing with tools like SharePoint or Oracle Webcenter - neither of which I would recommend. Ever. To anyone. Even if I hate them.
For my personal IKM needs I'm more focused on notes and relationships between concepts, and less on documents. I'm quite liking Obsidian, which I've switched to recently after giving up on Evernote.
Was surprised I didn't see Paperless mentioned yet, there's a few plug-ins to add LLM support for auto naming/tagging too
