Thanks for the encouraging words! That’s actually very relatable and I hope that moment comes soon. But I’m also learning new stuff about Linux on an almost hourly basis and it’s a lot of fun. Oh, and it’s so rewarding when something finally works!
Hey!
So I’ve managed to find the time and install tlp and I’m already hugely grateful for that. You were right, and it was really just as easy as typing “sudo rpm-ostree install tlp” and it worked just like it would with apt or dnf. 1/5 done!
But sadly the other ones weren’t so easy.
I’ve basically accepted my fate and given up on these last three programs, and it’s largely my fault for wanting to install stuff that hasn’t been made to work on an OS like Bazzite just yet. But maybe you can spot a rookie mistake or something that might help me again! Regardless of that, a huge thanks for your help and I’m glad I’ve got some programs to work while also learning something new along the way :)
Just wanted to chime in and give a +1 to Anytype. While I haven’t self-hosted the backup node and I can’t help you with that just yet, the fact that a free, P2P decentralized, end-to-end encrypted and source-available notes app like Anytype even exists is awesome!
I’d be curious to see if you manage to get the backup node up and running 👀
Hey db0 and mods!
Since you’re just humans and we never know if the insults are slowly getting to you or you’re just having doubts, I want to give a voice to the lurkers in here and reiterate one thing: I feel exceptionally well taken care of in this instance! I’m extremely happy to be a part of it, I don’t even know what a downtime is and I don’t see much drama or toxicity if any at all. I’m simply loving Lemmy (yes, seriously!), I’m loving my time on it and I can just focus on following the communities I’m passionate in, which is the main point of Lemmy. I’m also aware that this does not happen without considerable hard work from the people behind it. So while I’m sure most of it goes unnoticed, I hope to at least convey with this that it’s not taken for granted or unappreciated in the slightest bit. A very big thanks to you all (and I try to donate where I can) <3
As for my personal experience, whenever a hexbear post makes it into my feed it’s mostly an overly aggressive political take or straight up trolling. It reminds me of the League of Legends kind of humour: It’s supposed to be a joke, but it’s not explicitly spelled out that it’s a joke and it attacks the individual. It’s a mix of aggressive trolling and just straight up toxicity. You just never know if you’re supposed to take it serious or not. But I personally like to have a choice if I eventually want to block them or not, and I feel like having a choice is one of the common threads between FOSS, Linux, the fediverse, self-hosting, piracy and so on.
But, while I do appreciate this, it isn’t crucial to my experience on Lemmy. So, if at any time this balance is taking too much of a toll on you guys, it wouldn’t be a big deal for me if we would “lose contact” with hexbear. Last thing I want is to slowly cook your sanity bit by bit, with each passing day a bit more, over something that is frankly not that important. I’d rather prefer you focus on what you love doing, be that doing technical stuff, improving the instance, memeing around, learning new stuff or simply discussing things with other people in peace. Life is much too short to argue with people, and over the internet it’s even worse!
Thank you so much for the hint, I sporadically read the word “rpm-ostree” but never thought that it was related to my issue. I’ll do some research on it tomorrow and keep you updated!
Very insightful, thanks. All this does seem very fishy at best. Best to stick with LibreOffice then.
Not an expert, but I think they’re actually Latvian.
Hey!
Correct me if I’m wrong, but Joplin has all of what you’re asking for and if you self-host, even a few more big things like note sharing and note collaboration.
As for multiple users: You can have multiple users (“Profiles”) locally inside the app, or if you mean different accounts altogether, you can indeed have and manage them all in your own self-hosted Joplin server instance. Again, Joplin has collaboration and that necessarily entails more than one user/account! But we might mean two different things, happy to help in either case :P
Edit: added collaboration.
Why stop there, we could make a religion out of this!
Have you tried simply uninstalling and reinstalling?
I’ll see myself out…
I may or may not have been in you exact situation for a while :)
If it’s not too much of a hassle, let us know what you end up doing!
My fellow self-hosting noob, I gotchu!
Here are three solutions that are easy as pie:
P.s. There’s a Joplin community on Lemmy too, at !joplinapp@sopuli.xyz. Happy syncing!
Edit: Hell, here’s a fourth solution: Just use something like the FOSS app Round Sync and set it up so that it backs up your local Syncthing folder to a cloud of your choice (like those mentioned above) every 24h, or 2h, or even every 15 minutes. That way, once you come home and power on your laptop, your phone will automatically sync all your notes via Syncthing, but in the event that you lose your phone, you will have a “checkpoint” as recent as you want it to be. This way, you don’t have to change your current setup and at the same time you’re prepared in case something bad does happen. And in my case seeing that “Joplin Notes: Backup Completed” notification every 24h is something beautiful.
I don’t know anything about what you just asked but man, if there’s such a thing as a well formatted post, then this is it!
Yes it does work with 3rd party add-ons too!
Stremio web > log-in with your account > all your extensions should automagically be installed in your Stremio web. Then open the content you like and share the link in the address bar.
It’s the same on the recipient’s side: They will be able to see the stream you shared, but since they’re guests at first they won’t have any additional add-on installed apart from the opensubtitles add-on that is preinstalled on every account. If you want them to have a specific add-on on top of the stream, they will have to install it on their end first (no account required), then press on your link. Or they can just create an account, install the add-ons once and they’ll always have them ready for when you send them the link. Or you just give them your account and they’ll have all your same add-ons instantly. If you need help troubleshooting something, you can DM me.
P.s. I’m sure you could set-up a native Stremio server, give your friends access through a VPN, share your Plex or other solutions. But you asked for a way to share your Stremio content through a link and this is the fastest way possible.
Good on ya, with that much storage I would do that too :P
I’m about to build my first NAS, and intend to start with 8TB - for family backups, photos, music, TV shows, and self-hosted apps. That’s why the thought of dedicating 3TB, or ~1/3 of my entire storage, to music alone sounds nuts in the eyes of a beginner like me😂
But I guess it’s true what they say: Storage grows with time! Although I don’t wanna know how many songs you’ll have when I catch up to your current number…
Hol’ up: Let’s say the average size for a song (in FLAC format) is 30MB. 125k × 30 = 3’750’000 MB, or 3TB+!
Thas a lot of storage. O.o
The difference might be that Stremio-web works :P
Jokes aside, I sadly can’t help you on the technical side, all I know is that Stremio web works, no setup required. I went to Stremio-web, logged-in, chose my favourite public domain 1963 movie “Terror”, pressed play and copied the link from the address bar to my clipboard. I then shared that link to three different friends that did not have Stremio and they were all able to watch it, independently. I’d share the link here, but it contains my RD API token, so I’d rather not…
Peario works in a similar fashion, the only difference being that it would coordinate the three streams to keep them continuously synced up.
Of course! I’m too deep into Linux now, and how could I switch back to the old ways when the Linux community is just so incredibly kind like this :P
About the search tip, I read somewhere that Bazzite is a skin of a skin of a skin. So in general I’ll remember to search for the upstream base if I can’t find anything, got it.
Oh and seriously, please don’t search for the other three, I know how tedious it can be and you’ve helped more than enough. I even got NordVPN working thanks to your link, so I’m more than satisfied! Armed with this new knowledge I’ll do the rest myself, and I was also planning to switch to ProtonVPN anyways, that’s one way of solving it :) But again, a huge thank you for helping me out!
