Some day in the future when I have more time I’d like to keel going: https://github.com/jeena/JNotes

I use exactly those you mention and the lack of journals on desktop is weird. Because of that I started implementing a notes app myself but never finished it.

So the goal is to replace YouTube with non-video content not just replacing it with a different ui or provider. That sounds more doable. Good to hear that it improved.

I have a baby at home and that makes it impossible to keep up with all the updates. Reading the release notes? God damn, I’m glad I have the time hit the update button once a month and then pray to god that it doesn’t break anything. If it does then it’ll take months before I have time to investigate.

This led me to abonden HA from the summer house already. My dad’s HA has been turned off for three months too because I just can’t find the time to fix it, and at home it’s running but I have only one type of ZigBee things still working, other things are just broken like my script showing random pictures on the TV.

I really wish for a LTS version. I don’t have those problems on my Server where I run Ubuntu 22.04 LTS.

See https://community.home-assistant.io/t/what-the-heck-about-a-long-term-support-lts-release/219705

I wish HA would have LTS versions, I would absolutely run it, like I do on my servers.

Nextcloud it just too heavy I totally agree, and everything feels slow and sluggish.

For just files I use Syncthing and couldn’t be happier, it just works in the background without a central server just syncs the files between phones, PCs and laptops by itself. I set it up like 5 years ago when I had enough of Nextcloud and to be honest most of the time I forget that I have it, but I use it every day to sync my password database for KeePassXC, my music, my private and work documents between all my devices.

You’re misunderstanding what I wrote, because:

People leave the platform: “I don’t get why this upsets anyone, it’s his platform”.

Is exactly the opposite of what I was trying to say with:

he is not forcing you to use his platform

you can just leave, there are so many alternatives available, if you don’t then you are part of the problem, giving him power and putting more money into his pockets. In fact you should have seen the writing on the wall many years ago and latest when he bought it.

Being upset about this now after he did so many worse things is just silly.

So what, it’s his platform, he can do whatever he wants on it, he paid a lot of money for it.

I really don’t get why this would upset anyone, he is not forcing you to use his platform.

I don’t. I even removed analytics from my website which doesn’t even have comments. It doesn’t give me satisfaction at all.

Upvotes, it seems so random what gets upvoted anyway so most of the time it’s not because of the quality of my post.

Comments, yes that one I like because I get to see other peoples view on the topic which I’m interested in.

I’m not sure how easy it is to get to contribute to Lemmy, they are very big and have to move slow not to break things fo very many users.

I’m part of PieFed https://join.piefed.social/ which is still very small and fast to implement changes. The developers meet in a matrix chat and we know we have a lot to fix when it comes to UX and are eager to work with people knowledgable in this field.

If you’re interested and have some time over I would introduce you to the other guys.

Thanks for posting this clarification. This way it makes total sense. After 3 days even if I forgot to save something I probably don`t remember about it.

Because coreboot is the only way for us to be in full control of the hardware. Any other way there is microcode which is closed source and we have no idea what it is doing. It has full control to everything.

What do you plan to do on that graphics card? Is that 20GB VRAM? That sounds nice, but not being a NVIDIA it lacks at least the CUDA cores which are necessary for many AI use cases which I have.

So how would you make a homage at an old jobs by bringing it into the now times without copying the joke and replacing parts of it?

I guess you never watched Robot Wars?

Most of the time the VPS provider offers some backup solution. It’s not only about your configuration files which can easily be recreated, but about all the user data like pictures databases, etc. Which once lost can’t be recovered.

Best practice is a 3-2-1 backup: https://www.backblaze.com/blog/the-3-2-1-backup-strategy/

But you could back up your stuff on your laptop if you want, it’s not such a bad idea actually. For that you trigger the backup script from your laptop, you can do it automatically there too. This makes sure that the laptop is on while you’re doing the backup.

The easiest way is a crown job and a bash file which runs a couple of rsync commands to get specific files and directories from the server via ssh.

A more involved way would be a backup system like restic, which does a lot of things for you but is a bit more involved to set up.

I’m hosting my own server and my own bridges. Some of the bridges are rock solid and I never need to do anything other than keeping them updated like the discord, the signal, the Telegram and Slack ones.

Others I installed but they are breaking now and then and I have to fiddle with them like FB messanger, WhatsApp.

The third category is the ones that theoretically should work but I can’t get them to work like WeChat or Kakao Chat, because they are in a bad shape, outdated or like in WeChats case my account is flagged to not be able to do that for some reason.

And then there are the chats which have no way to be integrated like Instagram I think.

From what I understand beeper is just a matrix server with all those bridges installed and they configure update and run them making shire that everything works. And to be honest, that is a lot of work and it’s a good value proposition.

But yes you’re right they need to decrypt your chats on their server so that the bridge can deliver the messages. Actually I made a video explaining it a while ago about Element One which is doing it in the same way: https://tube.jeena.net/w/rYhp4ZT5Ykw1aBGqMr62KG

Keep it just in your head until Elon Musk forces Neural link on everyone, then you’re fucked.
