Take out the hard drive out of your laptop and put the drive for the server in it, install Debian using the built in monitor and keyboard of your laptop.

Coming to terms with no longer having privacy and control over my technology

I miss the days of VHS and DVD shelfs in homes, for example. If you bought the tapes and had them in your home, no corporate entity could alter those tapes without your consent, monitor how many times you watch them, sell your data to whomever they please without your knowledge, roll out new mandatory conditions to a 'user...

I've a Dreame L10s Ultra flashed with it, very happy with my purchase. A bit scary to install everything but if you read the instructions before doing it you should be fine :)

On Linux I use NewsFlash

RSS Guard seems to have support for Google Reader API, so FreshRSS is also supported. It's also a Qt application. You can also find other clients on the 3rd party clients page of FreshRSS

There are a lot of different methodes you could try. I think the easiest is to connect both systems with a (mesh)VPN like Wireguard, ZeroTier or Tailscale. Then you can simply copy stuff over using rsync -a (archive mode) with a cronjob or using special tools like Borg backup, kopia, etc

I don't think there is an app for something like that, but maybe you can try using Penpot in a browser?

I had the same issue with my Anonaddy alias, I just made an alias using my domain name and works fine now. It's unfortunate that so many project are on shithub.

Self Hosted IFTTT RSS Replacement

A couple of years ago, IFTTT did a thing where they asked people to sign up to premium and they could pay whatever they like and could keep the service forever. I didn't use many of the services, but thought it made sense to try and preserve something so useful for in case I did need it. In the meantime, I would allow it to...

n8n.io is great, but not open source.

Wiki for android packages

Another post made me wonder if there is some kind of wiki or website for android packages with descriptions that can/should be removed via adb. Back when I had a bloated phone, about 3 years back, I remember how much of a pain in the ass this was and had to go through XDA developers and reddit posts just to get the info on which...

You can use Universal Android Debloater. Most apps have a description of what it does and if it's safe to remove or not. Already debloated a few Samsung phones with it, works great :)

I use deemon to download my music from Deezer (free account only supports 128kb/s, this is enough for me though).

For the music server I tried both Jellyfin with the Finamp app and Navidrome with the Tempo app on Android.

For desktop app for both I use SonixD/Feishin (crossplatform)

Both where fantastic solutions but I stuck with Navidrome as it was easier to share playlists. (As an URL for non registered users or as public playlist for all registered users)

My setup is as following:
Hypervisor: Proxmox VE
NAS: TrueNAS Scale (where all music is stored)

1 LXC container with Deemon installed that downloads music in mounted NFS share from TrueNAS

1 VM with Navidrome installed in Docker with the music folder mounted with NFS

You don't have to use such a setup, you can perfectly do this on your existing PC with Windows, MacOS or Linux with DE. Or server OS like Linux with CLI, OpenMediaVault, TrueNAS Scale or unRAID

I use 1984.hosting, they are an independent VPS provider that runs on 100% green energy. Already customer with them for 2 years. Last year I moved my email hosting to them (unlimited domain names and storage).

No KYC
They accept bitcoin and monero

A few months ago I bought a second hand Nvidia Shield TV (€40), flashed LineageOS on it. Very happy with the device, especially the performance.

I use Jellyfin, SmartTubeNext and some VOD TV apps from my country. I've Adguard Home on my Proxmox server (can also be a Raspberry Pi) that I use for DNS adblocking, so we can watch VOD TV without any ads. Works really well :)

We've switched to this from cable TV and my family loves it, we can watch anything we want without any ads and FREE!

Only problem (not for me) is that Netflix doesn't work on it without GAPPS.

What software do you use for the thin client part? I'm really happy with Moonlight, just Wayland support (no cursor) is a little broken.
