Yes, and that's why I switched to Kagi

As someone that uses FreeBSD as its main server, it's kinda the other way around haha

Wait and see you distrohopping every month for years ending up in a boring stable distro.

In Brazil I only see more and more places adopting it, does not seem a failure

 

What are you using as a Google photos alternative? Currently I'm using Nextcloud but I'm thinking of switching to a more dedicated solution.

I mainly need to upload photos from my device automatically, have an UI to see and classify them, albuns and sharing.

To be honest, no. I run in a Truenas Jail, and its stable for me. Just a bit slow for big files sometimes.

2024 will be the year of ARM on desktops!

I host it in a Truenas BSD Jail, and the process was as straightforward as compiling and running any other Rust / Postgres project. Which error did you get?

I think the point is too many users following threads users as is it more likely to find a friend there than on Fediverse for example. Which will require more compute resources and storage

If you remove the app-platform role from Nextcloud by separately hosting the individual apps, what benefit do you get from having both Nextcloud and File Browser?

Nothing really. For almost any Nextcloud feature out there, you can find a server app that does the same.

But that's the point in my opinion. I don't want to waste time managing tons of apps if I can manage one Nextcloud instance. Nextcloud basically decides for me what's the best way to get those features running, so I don't need to figure out myself.

Now if you're into self hosting one container for each feature, go for it, no reason to not do so.

Anyone that has video drivers and flatpak should work in your case. If you dislike Ubuntu and don't like the direction, usually poops and mint are the ones recommended.

 

I'm exploring some options to see if it's viable to self host my email account. Currently I have:

  • A home server that I can host the entire email stack but I cannot open the SMTP port there
  • An AWS account where I can create a VM with SMTP ports open to the internet and reverse DNS support, also I have a domain and AWS SES configured and approved to send emails

Ideally I would want to send and receive from my home server, but that is not possible, so I'm exploring some alternatives:

For receiving emails:

  • Cheap VM with postfix and my home server with dovecot, essentially forwarding all emails to my home server where I want them to be. I don't know if this setup works tho.

  • Keep everything in a VM, with the downside that I'll need to do extra work there as it will have all my data. If possible I don't want to go that route.

For sending emails:

  • Sending from the same VM receiving emails, and have everything managed

  • Use AWS SES to send emails in my behalf

Any input or opinion is appreciated. I'm currently exploring options, I haven't made any decisions, so if you have a better alternative feel fee to share.

Thanks!
