Have you asked whether they’d be okay with a dual-boot? I recently started work as well (gamedev) and while most of the studio is on Windows I was able to set up a NixOS install for productivity (and to test the game on more configs).

You can’t self-host Ghost? I’d like to stay on the same domain indeed, not wanting to also mess up folks subscribed to RSS.

Awesome! Once this is out, I think I will migrate my blog from WriteFreely to Ghost. I hope I can reduce disruption for existing followers though…

Thank you! It definitely does, I will be using that Restic article for sure! I actually use NixOS on my main laptop, which I found via Vimjoyer’s videos. It’s great, though I wish documentation for more advanced usage was more readily available. I started making the server, currently my biggest roadblock is testing the infrastructure without going live (I made the flake generate a VM for now but it takes a long time to build it every edit and I can’t even get ssh working) and figuring out how I’ll eventually install it with minimal downtime.

I want to move my whole server to NixOS. It’s gotten to the point where I have no idea where all the Ubuntu config files went, and handling half of it via Docker vs baremetal. I hope this will allow me to set up proper backups as well, and maybe get better at Nix! I started a few days ago using the VM feature, but it’s tricky to work on for now, perhaps I haven’t found the right workflow.

Awesome! I now know the next show we’ll watch when we finally coordinate to finish Breaking Bad off my Jellyfin instance :)

(unrelated to piracy, though I agree with the main point of the post) I loved Le Bureau des Légendes! Are these shows well-subtitled/dubbed? That’s what prevents me from sharing them with my English-speaking friends usually, the language barrier is too great and it’s not as usual to watch a subtitled French show than a kdrama f.e

Thanks for the recommendation! Using it now, works great. Do you know whether development ia continued anywhere? It doesn’t look to have been updated in many years, but F-Droid doesn’t mark it as unmaintained.

Something I can use to browse GitHub repositories, reply to and create issues, and get notifications for issues on my own repos.

Do you mean Obtainium? I use it to download apps not available on F-Droid, but I can’t use it to actually browse/use GitHub. I will clarify in my OP :)

I really, really hope this leads to development of data portability/server migration options. When I set my homeserver up, I chose Synapse as I didn’t know about the other servers. Now that I do, and would like to switch away because of Synapse’s performance problems and the new CLA stuff, I realize I and all my users are fully locked in, and would have to start from scratch (lose all chats, profiles, etc) to migrate.

Good to know! I had it for data saving since I was on a metered connection, but that’s no longer the case. Will get rid of it. Might still be useful on Android though, no? As for Privacy Badger, I mostly use it for getting rid of embedded widgets like those weird third-party comments on articles and such.

I’m stuck in Cloudflare loops as well, been a week or two. It works in “Private” windows so I’m guessing it’s an addon. I think it might be either uBO, Privacy Badger, IDCAC (fork), or DecentralEyes.
