They've redefined privacy to be privacy from everyone except themselves, and then indoctrinated people that they are the most privacy conscious company.

bluegandalf OP , 1 month ago to Privacy in Is waiting for the Pixel Tablet 2 my only option?

I'm in the UK - pretty good. Haven't had any major issues, using Lebara and EE

bluegandalf OP , 1 month ago to Privacy in Is waiting for the Pixel Tablet 2 my only option?

Yeah, 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 OP , 1 month ago to Privacy in Is waiting for the Pixel Tablet 2 my only option?

I'm pretty happy with my Pixel 6 for now, and carrying around that bulky phone doesn't make sense for me personally.

bluegandalf OP , 1 month ago to Privacy in Is waiting for the Pixel Tablet 2 my only option?

Cool. 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 OP , 1 month ago to Privacy in Is waiting for the Pixel Tablet 2 my only option?

Do you have the dock too? Is that at all helpful?

bluegandalf , 2 months ago to Selfhosted in How much maintenance do you find your self-hosting involves?

30 docker stacks

5mins a day involving updates and checking github for release notes

15 minutes a day "acquiring" stuff for the server

bluegandalf , 2 months ago to Selfhosted in Notification when new app versions are released

Check 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 , 3 months ago to Privacy in Which apps began to interoperate with FB Messenger?

Has there been official communication from Signal that they won't?

bluegandalf , 3 months ago to Privacy in Self hosted security cameras?

For software I'd recommend using Frigate for ally the processing and then integrating it with Home Assistant.

bluegandalf , 4 months ago to Selfhosted in Sync files and Joplin notes on local network as well as mobile data

You 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 , 4 months ago to Selfhosted in what's your experience with paperless?

I 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.
