afaik you just listed features that the printer I mentioned (or if I am wrong, other similar printers) supports

it’s my bad for not mentioning all possible workflows, I was just a bit lazy and thinking of my personal documents only, which do not work well with further smart automation, because my batches are highly irregular. So the more manual approach is the best for me currently. Maybe possible with some future AI integration.

please elaborate

put 100 sheets on the tray, it scans them all and either puts them all into a single pdf or multiple pdfs. Then you split / merge them in software.

You could buy an automatic scanner that takes a stack of docs and dumps the files to a network share.

afaik I’m on an older version of https://github.com/distribution/distribution/pkgs/container/distribution

my compose somehow doesn’t have much info … i should have made more notes

i selfhost a pullthrough docker repository, so every container I use is stored in there and can be pulled offline.

I backup the whole / with borg

It has insane deduplication and compression and it creates a structure kind of like git, so you can have lots of incrimental versions without using much space.

It does sound like one, but it isn’t. Ignoring the differences in UX:

Passkey

• Per-service key pair, unique per domain, Identity bound only to that specific account on that site
• Challengeresponse via WebAuthn
• Trust anchored only in the target service (no external CA)
• Private key sealed in OS / secure hardware keystore

Certificate login

• Single global identity usable across many services
• TLS client authentication with certificates
• Trust established via certificate authorities and chain validation
• Private key stored in exportable file or smartcard

I think OP is talking about auth in services that you selfhost.

For example elster.de forces you to sign in with one of the many passwordless methods, which includes: entering a username and uploading a cert file.

But most selfhosted services only have username/password logins (if any).
