I use miniflux. To read the feed I use Flux News on android. I don't read the whole feed in the reader, but open the link

I think miniflux supports downloading the source, but I had to do it manually each time when I tried

The first generation Hyundai Ioniq 5 had solar roof (at least some models).

The first gen ioniq 5 also had a very low payload capacity, with stories of families who couldn't legally be in the car at the same time without being over the capacity.

The reason, I'm told, is that supporting the solar roof reduced the payload capacity a lot.

Also, solar cells on a car doesn't make much sense like others have already said.

I use Kvaesitso and have been using it for a long time now.

I wanted a search-based launcher with support for widgets. I was missing some features in the beginning, but I must admit I have forgotten what they were - so I guess that is a good sign 👌

Likes: Good search, OK widget, main screen can be as clean or dirty has you want

My email calendars I leave alone, but I use caldav for personal calendar and tasks.

I use radicale as caldav server, and tasks.org on android and thunderbird on computer. Tasks.org works very well

I also use silverbullet (silverbullet.md) for more complex todo lists

Yes, I have used it for many months. It has been the best solution for my use case for a while. Which is tasks, shopping, planning (trips, ..), recipes, and a simple knowledgebase. It was the offline support that set it apart from some other solutions

I have the files in a syncthing folder, so I can access the files without running silverbullet

My biggest problem is keeping up with all the changes. Zef made some youtube videos that are helpful

For me, it makes the clients disposable. I can reinstall the laptop, desktop, phone and be up and running in no time, without doing backups and preparation. Also it is easy to jump between clients.

The server needs to be backed up though

I would recommend using one of the distros backed by a big company or have very long track records. They are less likely to break on updates, and have a higher chance of supporting any uncommon hardware you may have.

  • Fedora
  • Ubuntu
  • Mint
  • Pop OS

If you have new hardware (e.g. GPU newer than 6 months) you will probably have issues. Follow the recommendations from the hardware supplier, or use something arch based. I used Manjaro a while when I got new hardware.

Besides those tips, you should decide which desktop environment you like best. I prefer gnome, as I enjoy to spend time in apps and not on in settings. Others prefer customization. Have a look at https://youtu.be/09cYQJBgKEs?si=KX8FZeMRcMlPTzG2

Miniflux + News App (lemmy.world)
submitted 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) by conrad82@lemmy.world to c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

I started using miniflux a while back, and enjoy it. Recently I also gave News app on F-droid a try, and the combination of the two is one of the best news reading experiences I've had.

Miniflux: https://miniflux.app/

News app: https://github.com/bubelov/news

Just wanted to share!

EDIT: Based on comment from @refreeze@lemmy.world , I am now mostly using Flux News https://github.com/KevinCFechtel/FluxNews . But I could go either way

I use Debian + Gnome without custom extensions and like it.

I don't use too many programs, so in the overview I have Firefox in position 1, signal in position 2 and steam in 3. Then I use Win+1,2,3 to launch them.

For other programs, I hit Win and then start typing the name and hit enter.

For switching between windows, i use alt-tab or alt-(key above tab). If I have many windows or playing game in full screen, I hit Win-key once and choose the window i want.

I don't use workspaces, never found a good flow. And I rarely miss a taskbar.

I used yadm for a while and liked it. It is a git wrapper that makes git'ing your home folder for config files less messy

Now I don't care so much for keeping settings anymore and use mainly vanilla settings, therefore I stopped using it

I run my containers in an LCX on Proxmox (yes I heard I should use a VM, but it works..)

For data storage (syncthing, jellyfin ..) I make volumes in the LXC. But I was wondering if this is the best way?

I started thinking about restoring backups. The docker backups can get quite large with all the user data. I was wondering if a separate "NAS" VM and NFS shares makes more sense. Then restoring/cloning docker lxc would be faster, for troubleshooting. And the user data I could restore separately.

What do you guys do?

Are the ones I use the most I think

When the first dinosaur bone was discovered, noone had heard about it before and people believed that bones they found before were from some animals

After people knew about dinosaurs they started finding them other places in the world at a rapid pace. Many people thought it was all a hoax

So you know, unless you know about them you don't know what to report. And americans think most about aliens I guess.

That being said, probably there aren't secret aliens around. probably 🫣
