I’ve been using Firefox install via obtainium straight from the Mozilla repo.

This website allows you do email files to kobo

You can change the store on the Kobo to become to your selfhosted calibre library

If you use a KDE desktop

Many tutorials available for this

Security in layers.

All your services should be using https. Vaultwarden in particular won’t even run without https unless you bypass a bunch of security measures.

This is how to setup local only and external https, I highly recommend this as a baseline setup for every homelab. It allows you to choose how much security you want on a per app basis and makes adding new apps trivially easy.

Anyone with the knowledge to self host will quickly discover 3-2-1. If they choose to follow it, that’s on them but data loss won’t be from ignorance

Borg backup to borgbase is not very expensive and borg will encrypt the data plus the vault is also encrypted

Keep vaultwarden behind wireguard for local only access then also use https certs and good master password. Very secure like this

Use aegis, export the keys and then reimport them every time you switch. Trusting your second factor to a cloud is a disaster waiting to happen.

If you want to get fancy setup your own cloud server (nextcloud, Seafile, owncloud etc) and set the backup folder for aegis to the self hosted cloud for easy restore every time you switch ROMs.

FWIW collabora and open office can integrate with other clouds like Seafile and owncloud Infinite scale. So even without NextCloud it can be used. It can also be used stand alone.

If you are willing to spend a bit more upfront, I bought a mini PC in 2017 and installed opnsense on it. It’s still rock solid. For wifi, I use a separate ap (a ubiquity UAP that I bought in 2015) and it is also going strong. Almost a decade of rock solid performance easily beats out any other router I’ve owned in terms of both performance and cost.

Does anyone know if these ai chips will be good at transcoding (jellyfin) or facial detection on a security camera (frigate). Seems these might be good for homelabers.

This right here. I tried to join Mastodon today.

Download the most recommended app, Moshidon

Open app and get asked which instance i want to join. There are no suggestions.

Do a search for instances and pick one, go to the website and register with email and password. Requires email confirmation. Still waiting on the email confirmation link, 4 hrs later and 2 resends.

Literally haven’t been able to sign up yet.

Even if it had worked, the workflow would have been to change back to the app, type out the instance then re-login.

I’m not sure how anyone expects anyone other than the most hardcore to sign up for these services. Maybe that’s the point but if the point is to grow the user sign up process to significant overall

Mastodon being 65% was a surprise to me for sure. What’s the best mastodon app?

Also how do I use it efficiently for tech related news and info? I never got into twitter.

Edit: I should probably specify for Android

Ya bazzite is based on fedora with an immutable file system, so it’s called fedora atomic. Fedora atomic then has variants like bazzite, universal blue etc.

I’m curious if the baseline fedora desktop would have the same issues.

Multi refresh rate on monitors is a relatively new thing for Linux so bugs are still being ironed out. It sucks that things like these are still not at parity with windows but it’s improving.

Interesting. If you have some time, might be worth trying to live USB boot drive of something like fedora desktop kde spin or pop_os cosmic DE just to see if the issue persists for other distros.

I’m theory this should be working now, it’s too bad it isn’t. My desktop is a 4 monitor setup that I’m hoping to move to a fedora based distro as well.

Did you use bazzite with gnome or kde? If I recall correctly, kde plasma 6.1 has support for multi monitor with different refresh

That’s really awesome.

Does an old version of Ms office like 2010, 2013 or 2016 work with this?

Self hosted AI seems like an intriguing option for those capable of running it. Naturally this will always be more complex than paying someone else to host it for you but it seems like that’s that only way if you care about privacy

Use the multi container extension for Firefox and have all your Google stuff in one container, banks in another, social media in another etc.
