Randy deemed the switch to not be premium enough

Mine does this too! He’d bring the toy right to my feet the first few times, then it’ll drop it increasingly further away from me

As in “does have a somewhat modern flatpak package version that won’t cause issues with stuff off flathub”

I’ll dig it up and try it, thanks!

At least does stable support Flatpaks now? Got an old T60 I might get out of retirement, because fuck buying a computer these days

Here’s the obligatory upvote for referencing http.cat

Oh wow I didnt know retroarch had WebDAV!

How about the “private notes” chat on Signal?

The real question is, “which one of the gazillion voice chat apps can properly filter audio without a lengthy setup that my mongoloid friends will skip?”

I am the guy moving the group to different apps and platforms, some follow more reluctantly but in the end we stick together. We’ve jumped from TS2 to Skype, Dolby Axon, Mumble, Hangouts, Discord, Mumble and back to Discord. Now I’m getting a strong whiff of enshittification, and I’m weighing my options. We’re about 10-12 but mostly 4 or 5 active at a time.

Jami, Matrix, Jitsi, Rocket and again ol reliable Mumble… It’d be nice if mumble had screen share and a better automatic audio setup, so far the best quality of vc over any other app/service.

I’ll check out Movim I saw named in the comments, any other hidden gem I should try?

This! I’d say that the best we can do is educate. Over the last 20 years people got taught to be lazy and go with the herd. They don’t want to change, all their stuff is already “in the cloud” and “I don’t have time to go tinker with that nerd stuff, I need something that works”.

– some of my friends and acquaintances 2025

We’ve spent last few months playing Enshrouded. The dedicated server is a resource hog tho, even on an empty server it’d use a ton of CPU time. Still lots of fun with a few friends exploring and building stuff

Trackmania can be self hosted? I’d love a friends-only score board and custom track rotations

Add Lepton to the list!

I have an old i5 Mac mini (2011 I think) as a backup for infrastructure stuff (proxy, home assistant, pihole). If something goes terribly wrong I can just plug it in and start it. All the LXCs are copies of my main proxmox rig, albeit a bit outdated (BC I don’t leave it plugged in). I know I could do better with proxmox’s HA but seems like another thing I’d be on the hook to keep maintaining.

The normal account (dafault) is the only monetized option, giving 100mb of free space.

I did a quick check on the self hosted option in the beginning and same, seemed too convoluted and decided to stick with the local method, since I tested it (turning phone WiFi off) and it was still syncing (via tailscale)

On the upside, I tested the import/export features and seemed rather solid, so you can always create a new local account (save the seed phrase!) And bring your stuff back into it.

I have nginx set up for limited stuff, most of my selfhosted services I kept behind tailscale.

The only big con I found against it, it’s hard to switch between the self-hosted and “normal” vaults. I should test if I can have another copy (eg appimage) with separate settings for that.

I am heavily using the local-only mode but I’ve also recommended it to some normie friends, so sharing vaults in different modes becomes a hassle

Edit: tldr, I’m using the “local only” mode but since I have tailscale, everywhere is LAN ;)

I know this is a rather necro-y post, but I’m surprised nobody mentioned anytype. I’ve been using it for the last 2 months and I’m slowly moving my notes off obsidian, as well as my journal off logseq/nextcloud.

I went in a bit weary, the webpage looks like the typical startup project ready to pull the rug off your feet at any point, but there’s a self-hosted option and even a local-only mode that syncs devices across your LAN.

I normally tell it straight from why I got interested on it: “I like my stuff being mine”

https://file.pizza/ just because the pizza toppings URLs are fun and nasty

You say that, but I’ve seen so many dodgy iot devices… Specially deploying PiHole you start to see so much random traffic from stupid stuff like a smartplug or a TV box

I recently finished something like this at home, npmplus+pihole. I’ll never do it again, and the moment it breaks I’ll go back to just using Tailscale’s MagicDNS
