Every where and any where. They are a mix of PDF and epub.

For me:

• Card/CalDAV baikal : so that I can sync my calendar and address book across phone, tablet, workstation, and laptop
• Messaging prosody/synapse : private chatting with family.
• File sync Nextcloud : for access to various files. This is the only one that has worked consistently for me. Syncthing et al would constantly lose connection and the file I needed wouldn’t be there. Works fantastic for syncing Joplin notes.
• VPN wireguard : to access things remotely and securely
• Audiobooks audiobooksheld : I have a ridiculously large audio book library and enjoy listening to them when driving. This way I don’t have to preload my phone.
• Ebooks calibreweb : another large library. I have separate instances for different types: Magazines, regular books, RPG/gamebooks.
• Version control forgejo : for coding and creative writing projects.
• bookmarks shaarli : I find myself using this less and less. I use Firefox’s built-in sync, so I’m thinking about switching to separating selfhosting that instead of shaarli.
• Photos Synology : looking forward to immich getting stable. Once they get past regular breathing changes I’ll move over to that.

I have stopped using most of the services that got me into selfhosting. Things like rss and wikis. I try new things from time to time but kill them if I don’t find myself using them regularly or if the maintenance cost is more than the value add.

You should also be able to disable the repo from within the Software store app

If you have another USB drive, I think you should be able to load the wifi drivers from that when using the netinstall. I am pretty sure I remember doing that 15 years ago.

Gnome because it is the default in my district, works right out of the box and I’m too old to fart around with customizing things anymore.

I just want to get to work.

If I remember correctly, in a previous blog pretty, they started that k-9 would continue to be updated with the same functionality. There was something else other than branding that was going to be different but it wasn’t consequential (at least not enough for me to remember).

I really should do another review. I’ve had my Framework for about the same time. Most of the time it is hooked up to my dock and a 4 port KVM. My biggest annoyance is that switching back to my Framework on the KVM it often doesn’t wake up or properly display. My work computers running Windows rarely have that issue and my Linux desktop never does. (I run Linux on the Framework.) I suspect that there is a setting I need to adjust for diving to keep it from going into hibernation, but I haven’t put that much effort into it yet.

When not docked, my biggest issue is the touchpad. I think some form of dirt got into it and the clicking doesn’t always register. But I’m too lazy to fix.

And if I watch videos it gets pretty hot. Again, there are probably things I could do to fix that.

So, really the laptop is great, I’m just a shitty owner/user.

My hinges are not the floppy ones.

I’m not sure about libre office, but Excel has lookup and lookup. I’ve not personally used those. But might be of help.

I have the same issue. I want something simple but has encryption, native mobile apps for both Android and iOS, and threading. Facebook style posts with comments would be great.

For now we’re using matrix and element bc I can find anything better. Unless something more compelling comes along we’ll probably migrate to something xmpp based like snikket.

Has anyone tried selfhosting ente photos? Curious how well it works.

I was thinking a desktop app. I’ve played with imapnotes3 and jtxboard.

Yeah, me too. Whenever Fedora made the move to Wayland by default for Gnome.

Don’t leave us hanging, what is this mystical notes app that syncs over imap?

I hope they really do it. I’d love notes in Thunderbird.

I got this last year and it has traveled up and down the East Coast, as well to the South West. Gone by plane and car. I have used it with my Surface laptop running Windows for work, my personal Framework 13 running Fedora Linux, and my Nintendo switch.

Is it great? I don’t know, but it works.

Joplin has a plug-in that can grab todos and reveal them all in one spot. You can use tags with it as well. Although I believe it only works on desktop? I haven’t tried on phone/tablet. https://github.com/CalebJohn/joplin-inline-todo#readme

I’m in the same boat.

Past: My notes are all over the place. Some are in paper notebooks, on scraps of paper, index cards. Some are plain text files, some are markdown; dumped into random folders (had some in my yyyy/mm/dd folders for my journaling, some in project folders) some are on a wiki, some in redmine, some in openproject. I’ve tried different bug tracking apps, but as mentioned, they (like project management apps) are too burdensome.

Current: For now I am using Joplin for my active notes (and slowly migrating historical notes as I have energy). I have a top level notebook for my homelab, then a subnotebook broken down by subject (infrastructure, app/service, hardware), then individual pages for each specific item (host os setup, vpn, application, etc). On those individual pages, I have it sectioned out; Goal, Research notes, Actions taken, results.

• Personal Notes
• Journal
• Inbox
• Homelab
  • Infrastructure
    • Host OS
    • VPN
    • NFS
  • Services
    • Radicale
    • Audiobookshelf
    • etc
  • Hardware
    • node 1
    • node 2
    • node 3
    • router

Future step: Once I have something figured out and ready for “prod”, I will be wiping it out and redoing it all through ansible. I’ll take that playbook and a clean markdown doc with the important details and put them in git. That way I can rebuild it later if there is a tragedy.

I lucked out. When I was ready to pull the trigger it was just a couple of weeks before the next batch shipped. Got mine in just a few weeks.

I love my Framework. It may not feel as polished physically as the XPS. If you can find one in the wild to touch and try, I would recommend doing so.
