I mostly use postgres so I created myself a small docker image, which has the postgres client, restic and cron. It also gets a small bash script which executes pg_dump and then restic to backup the dump. pg_dump can be used while the database is used so no issues there. Restic stores the backup in a volume which points to an NFS share on my NAS. This script is called periodically by cron.

I use this image to start a backup-service alongside every database. So it's part of the docker-compose.yml

Sure! I'll try to do it today but I can't promise to get to it

I quickly threw together a repository. But please keep in mind that I made some changes to it, to be able to publish it, and it is a combination of 3 different custom solutions that I made for myself. I have not tested it, so use at your own risk :D But if something is broken, just tell me and I try to fix it.

Which RSS aggregator do you use? I cannot seem to find one that works for me.

I cannot stand google news any more, too much spam, clickbait and advertisement. So I decided to try to selfhost an RSS aggregator to make myself a news feed that I would be comfortable with. Being RSS such an "ancient" thing I thought there will be many mature systems, but I'm not sure that's the case.....

I use FreshRSS with FeedMe and I'm pretty happy with it. Though many local news pages here decided to become assholes and use click bait titles and teaser texts now like "Big car crash! This important main road is closed down". So no real filtering possible and you again have to open the article to find out where you probably don't want to drive to.

But still you can define as many filters as you want and save them:
FreshRSS

You then also can "share" these filters and subscribe to them separately in your reader app if you want.

I found search results surprisingly bad when I had to use is on another computer. I use Kagi (and yes it costs money but I rather pay that than pay with my data) which gives me way more accurate results. Google might have been the best search engine until a few years ago but from my experience it is not anymore.

That's not true. They use their own index

I moved my acocunt temporarily because feddit is not working correctly as you might know. Idk why the hate but I'm not affiliated with them by any means, just a happy user.

Undaunted ,

That's indeed very shitty and shady of them and I actually might contact their support about that. Thanks for pointing that out!
