bluegandalf@lemmy.mlto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Any non-tech-background self-hosters?English5·1 year agoBackground in biology and insurance - major career transition but yes, I love self-hosting! Have about 37 services running!
They’ve redefined privacy to be privacy from everyone except themselves, and then indoctrinated people that they are the most privacy conscious company.
bluegandalf@lemmy.mlOPto Privacy@lemmy.ml•Is waiting for the Pixel Tablet 2 my only option?1·1 year agoI’m in the UK - pretty good. Haven’t had any major issues, using Lebara and EE
bluegandalf@lemmy.mlOPto Privacy@lemmy.ml•Is waiting for the Pixel Tablet 2 my only option?2·1 year agoYeah, I did consider it - you can see the last point in the original post - basically I feel these are extremely underpowered and I’m not sure about Linux’s support for hardware and whether its truly tablet ready. I’d love to hear any opinions on the contrary if you’ve used these devices though
bluegandalf@lemmy.mlOPto Privacy@lemmy.ml•Is waiting for the Pixel Tablet 2 my only option?3·1 year agoI’m pretty happy with my Pixel 6 for now, and carrying around that bulky phone doesn’t make sense for me personally.
bluegandalf@lemmy.mlOPto Privacy@lemmy.ml•Is waiting for the Pixel Tablet 2 my only option?5·1 year agoCool. I guess I’ll have to reconsider the current Pixel tablet again then - without the dock though, don’t think that’s worth it. Thanks!
bluegandalf@lemmy.mlOPto Privacy@lemmy.ml•Is waiting for the Pixel Tablet 2 my only option?5·1 year agoDo you have the dock too? Is that at all helpful?
bluegandalf@lemmy.mlto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•How much maintenance do you find your self-hosting involves?English2·1 year ago30 docker stacks
5mins a day involving updates and checking github for release notes
15 minutes a day “acquiring” stuff for the server
bluegandalf@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.ml•Fairphone Fairbuds launch with replaceable batteries, titanium drivers and ANC31·2 years agoIs their app open source?
bluegandalf@lemmy.mlto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Notification when new app versions are releasedEnglish2·2 years agoCheck out WhatsupDocker. I use the same to inform me of updates. It is self-hostable as well. I then use the WUD widget for homepage to let me know that there’s an update available on my dashboard
bluegandalf@lemmy.mlto Privacy@lemmy.ml•Which apps began to interoperate with FB Messenger?8·2 years agoHas there been official communication from Signal that they won’t?
Pop!_OS in mid 2021. Switched to Fedora GNOME in mid 2022, haven’t looked back, but am looking forward to Fedora COSMIC.
For software I’d recommend using Frigate for ally the processing and then integrating it with Home Assistant.
bluegandalf@lemmy.mlto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Sync files and Joplin notes on local network as well as mobile dataEnglish3·2 years agoYou can deploy the Joplin sync server using docker on a VPS or any other computer always on. I’ve been using it for about a year now, without issues, though I’m now transitioning to Notesnook now.
bluegandalf@lemmy.mlto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•what's your experience with paperless?English12·2 years agoI had a lot of false starts with having to upload and tag >3000 documents initially. Finally made the leap and did it in December. I now use it regularly, but am still getting used to the new dynamic, but that’s a transitional thing. Overall, enjoy it and look forward to more features!
The mobile app is a separate project, and is meant as a companion app rather than full fledged, which I understand. Though, it is still lacking.

Stores - Obtainium & Aurora Store
Social Media - Clipious(for Invidious/YouTube), Infinity for Reddit, Eternity for Lemmy, Tusky for Mastodon
bluegandalf@lemmy.mlto Open Source@lemmy.ml•OSS-Blacklist: A blacklist for keeping track of OSS hostile companies/organizations3·2 years agoThey open source all of their clients (when not in beta). They maintain multiple open source cryptographic libraries, in multiple languages, which a lot of developers and companies go on to use. They have a yearly fundraiser for open source and digital rights groups, which they contribute a $100,000 to each year.
Just because their server code is not open source, doesn’t mean they don’t support open source. It’s not an all or nothing situation. Binary thinking and classification is a very dangerous and naïve way to look at things.
bluegandalf@lemmy.mlto Open Source@lemmy.ml•OSS-Blacklist: A blacklist for keeping track of OSS hostile companies/organizations8·2 years agoIt might be a good idea to do the exact opposite I.e. make a OSS whitelist. It will be much easier to maintain given the scale of applications/services/products.
Take a look at Linkding. Run the latest-plus version to archive pages and get reader mode features. You can use Linkdy as the Android app for it. I’m unsure about the RSS features though.
I think a separate FreshRSS container would be better for that though, and you can use ReadYou as the Android app.
