OK, I didn’t read the full text but I saw self-hostable alternative to Google Timeline and Hona Assistant and I’m sold!

Google timeline once genuenly helped me get my Swedish citizenship, but it also freaked me out how much data Google had about me.

I had to write down when I left the country and when I came back for the last 5 years or so, and without timeline it would not been possible because during that time I traveled abroad at least twice a Mont for a year.

Anyway it sounds very cool especially because I’m already having Home assistant set up for this but it doesn’t have this timeline functionality.

FairScan, very cool, I was looking for something like that. I already use Paperless.

I hope you get rich!

Does it really work on stage? For me the only reason I bring my 4x10 is so I can hear myself on stage independent of how incompetent the sound-person is in that random venue to mix the monitors so people can hear themselves.

I wish we had a all ages venue here I miss going to concerts and I’d love to bring my kids.

Yes I always have it on, both when I’m at home and away. The problem is that when I try to pay something with Samsung Pay, the Samsung Pay app tells me to turn off the VPN before I can use it.

That sounds too good to be true :D I’m also really interested in Graphene OS but I never pulled the trigger. Perhaps I need to buy some used pixel to try if all the things work which I need.

But those services detect that I have VPN on and force me to turn it off, otherwise they just exit.

So how do you deal with the fact that So many services on the phone tell you to turn off VPN to use them? I’m turning the VPN off and on several times a day on my phone and am always annoyed about it, because I need it on so I can get notifications and calls from my parents home network.

But every time I need to pay with Samsung Pay I have to turn it off, every time I want to log in to a government website I have to use this 2FA PASS app here in Korea and I have to turn the VPN off.

So often I forget to turn it on again, it’s so annoying, that this alone makes me want to put my stuff directly on the internet without a VPN and just keep stuff updated.

I installed Jellyfin on my Synology and it works very well for a bit and then it gets stuck and Synology stopps the Docker container and you need to start it again. So every time me and the wife sit down to watch a movie it doesn’t work, while when I test it then it works. I had to switch to rygel on my PC quickly so that we could watch the movie this day.

That sounds like a Passkey

If you don’t want to mess with SSL you can do the same with port 80.

Just use port 443 or 80 and use sub domains and a reverse proxy for each of your services.

For example:

https://rss.example.com/ goes to port 443 on your server where you run a nginx with letsencrypt. You set up a vhost for this subdomain which then internally proxies to your IP adress and port for freshrss.

I have it like that: https://rss.jeena.net/ and https://piefed.jeena.net/ and https://toot.jeena.net/ and so on.

Nextcloud it just too heavy I totally agree, and everything feels slow and sluggish.

For just files I use Syncthing and couldn’t be happier, it just works in the background without a central server just syncs the files between phones, PCs and laptops by itself. I set it up like 5 years ago when I had enough of Nextcloud and to be honest most of the time I forget that I have it, but I use it every day to sync my password database for KeePassXC, my music, my private and work documents between all my devices.
