I pay Bitwarden the tenner a year as I have no reason to distrust them and they’re definitely providing a more reliable, securer service than I can self-host.
I also do an encrypted export once per week and store that export to an encrypted cloud based service and an encrypted USB stick. Takes 2 minutes.
Bandcamp is still OK for me and I listen to some fairly obscure stuff.
Just to offer a heads up - there’s a new solution/site which is currently in Beta but is backed by good people (musicians). It needs an influx of music diversity (lots of metal at the moment) but if it gets that when it comes out of beta then it could very well be a good Bandcamp replacament - Ampwall
I can vouch for whisper.cpp . It’s not 100% perfect but it’s good enough to transcribe a half hour podcast with numerous speakers and which requires pretty minimal fixing afterwards.
Looks like yunohost with a nicer interface but less apps and less config options.
Sure, but the body of the post mentions donating to devs and instance owners. I’m being pedantic I know, but I think it would be a more informative post if it’d made clear what the donation numbers refer to and what they don’t.
As an add-on (sort of) to Borg, I was told about Vorta yesterday and installed it to run scheduled, encrypted backups of my local machine to an external drive, but you can also ssh to a remote server if you wish. Works like a dream.
Right. My instance maintainer accepts donations via Ko-fi, which isn’t even listed here.

I think it’s something that app creator invented.

In my own personal experience, Nextcloud;
ActivityPods are being developed. From their website:
What is the main shortcoming of ActivityPub ?
ActivityPub wants to make it possible to create decentralized apps. But to post videos, you need an account on a PeerTube instance. And to post images, you need an account on a PixelFed instance. You must thus handle multiple accounts, with their profile, list of followers, etc.
How does ActivityPods solve this shortcoming ?
With ActivityPods, you have only one profile, one outbox, one inbox and one list of followers - all in a single place. Applications connect to your Pod to post activities, read the inbox and fetch data. And of course they can connect to any existing fediverse application !
Yep, plus a list of reasons why I might want to use it over other Matrix clients.
Calibre on local machine, sharing a database with self-hosted calibre-web, OPDS enabled using a Kobo to read.
I have a Kobo Clara which I installed (free, open source) KOReader on. I also have Calibre installed on a desktop machine with the db for that located on my server (which is in my home, not a VPS). Having the db there means it can also serve the Calibre-web install which is also on the server.
When I first set this up I used Calibre on my desktop to connect over wifi to my Kobo and pushed everything I had straight onto it in one go. Now, as I add new individual books to Calibre, I use the OPDS connection on my Kobo to connect to Calibre-web and pull the new book to my Kobo from there. This means I can access my collection wherever I am in the world.
Also has the huge advantage for me that it actually works. I could never get Syncthing to work no matter how much I tweaked it. This worked instantly.
And the interface is not a mess too.
And it’ll stay that way until people use, and keep using, this space. So, to use an overused phrase, be the change you want to see :)
