Literally just some guy

@freamon
I started using SyncThing. Highly recommended.
@string_cat

@jaackf
SyncThing. It's the best sort of selfhosted program. You set it up once and then never think about it because it just keeps quietly doing what you wanted.

Wikis can be great if you've got a few folks that need to coordinate information.

An RSS reader/aggregator.

Arch Linux ARM is technically a separate project

@MangoPenguin
If you're scripting it yourself, https://www.complete.org/dar/ gives a few extra niceties over just zip files or tarballs.
Thank @jgoerzen for the nice summary.

@redcalcium
Really? Not .local? Why is it the default on so much?

@andybug
I've been working on using Guix. Theoretically, I love the idea, but there's definitely some learning curve.
@swordsmanluke

@mfat
https://yunohost.org/ is an attempt to fill that gap, but it's missing a key feature. Anything that wants to be broadly adopted will have to be appified these days.

@Lateralking
A VPN is an attack vector, too, and as @vegetaaaaaaa said, it's not like you can slouch on hardening ssh regardless of where it listens.

It also adds complexity. One more thing to go wrong.

Do what you like, of course. Your devices, your choice.

I see it from over here in Mastodon land. Interestingly, all the timestamps look ok from here.

Edit: guess I'm testing editing to correct a typo. :dancing_panda:

@MarioBarisa
Not...overly? Many can't run a mainline kernel. Most have lackluster performance.

If you already have one, it's meeting your needs, and you're not bothered with the flash storage failing, carry on. But you really are better off scrounging a junk laptop/workstation in most other cases.

That said, I've also had that bite me. Some of those are junked for a reason and they can be flaky. Availability can differ in your area. 🤷‍♂️ Use what works for you.

@Secret300
I'm pretty sure I've seen OpenAFS used for this.

Honestly, though, put your dotfiles & other text in version control and anything binary in SyncThing. It's going to be way less headache.

@letbelight
18650s are a standard size. Several companies make decent ones.

It's like taking AA cells, but lithium.

@Jamie
Using a dotfiles manager makes it a little easier to avoid, even if it's just GNU Stow.

@Sandbag

@czardestructo I like the tidiness of this.

@sifrmoja
Ah, yep. Now that you say it. Thanks for cluing me in.
@redcalcium @zephyr

@takeda
Thanks for sharing. Always good to learn more.
@sam @SJ_Zero @selfhosted

@BaldProphet
What's the smallest container around? How much RAM would that take?

edit: FROM scratch let's you run bare binaries on Docker.

Would be very interesting to see how far that could get. What sort of payload/task would be interesting for all those containers?

It doesn't require it, but you can't send password reset or emergency access emails without it.

@veer66
One is that it's a shell script, so it feels like there's less to learn. The accuracy of that can be debated.

I've not packaged RPMs in a fair while, so I can't make a more thorough comparison.

I just use grayscale PNGs, myself. optipng usually takes them down to a decent size.

You can do what's called "dual boot" where both (or even more than 2) OSes are available and you pick which to use at boot.

@mrXYZ
Unless you're doing something very unusual, you're not going to end up with many AUR packages. I've run Arch on SBCs without much trouble.

There are severely steps in between Gnome/KDE and Awesome. XFCE and Enlightenment are more user friendly options that are still quite lightweight.

Have you used Linux lately? It really doesn't take any more time than anything else.

Certainly, let's look for more ways to improve, but I've not had a need to fiddle with hardware configs in a while.

I count 2 personal laptops, a desktop, and a couple RasPis that just worked for me. One laptop had suspend issues in Windows that went away with Linux, which surprised the hell out of me.

My work laptop (Windows 11) needed GPU drivers reinstalled and increasingly acts up with docking and suspend.

Maybe I've lucked into good hardware or something.

@luthis
I used it for gaming for years, but eventually I realized I was never switching back. I'd found games that ran native.

@FunkyClown Use what you like! I'm not here to proselytize.

@TheHolm
You may want to check out https://forgejo.org/. It's a fork of Gitea that's Fediverse-enabled.
@GatoB

@muddybulldog
After using a small install script of my own for a while, I switched to yadm. It's nice because it's a shell script, so no need to compile on different architectures/UNIXen.

@DidacticDumbass
You can set Debian to prefer installing from stable unless you explicitly request otherwise. That works on a per-package basis.

Presumably you could do the same with any apt-based distro, but I've not tried it.

There's not really a magic bullet here. The current answer is to prepare a PDF outside of paperless and feed it in: https://github.com/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx/discussions/367

mpflanzer on that Issue is working on a file merging feature, but it's not ready yet.

@gedhrel
wasm sandboxes can take IPs? Regardless, if we're just talking density, I can put multiple IPs on a single interface or create a ton of virtual interfaces. That's boring, though.

@Atemu
Webp is much better, as long as your target reader(s) support it.
