Underrated comment

I remember playing Minecraft on Ubuntu 14.04, does that count?

KDE does fractional scaling really well, GNOME has big issues though.

Probably, since GNOME is a poorly written piece of shit

Sounds more like a GNOME problem

Actually, it’s the desktop environment that doesn’t know how to handle scaling. It’s mostly a GNOME issue, I never had any issues on KDE.

Electron and Xwayland don’t cause problems. GNOME is the only source of problems on Linux.

Do you use bash? If not, which one do you use? zsh, fish? Why do you do it?

Mostly fish, because it just feels much more modern than bash, it has good built-in autocomplete and I don’t have to install millions of plugins like of zsh.

Do you write #!/bin/bash or #!/bin/sh? Do you write fish exclusive scripts?

#!/usr/bin/env bash Occasionally I also write fish scripts. Just replace sh with fish.

What should’ve people told you what to do/ use?

zoxide

general advice?

As @crispy_kilt@feddit.de already suggested, use shellcheck.

is it bad practice to create a handful of commands like podup and poddown that replace podman compose up -d and podman compose down or podlog as podman logs -f --tail 20 $1 or podenter for podman exec -it “$1” /bin/sh?

I don’t think so

Complete and utter garbage.

If the machines are on the same network, try LocalSend

Yeah Vultr is great

As far as I can see on their website, they don’t mention end to end encryption or zero-knowledge encryption. If that is true, it means that they are able to read all your emails (and so can the government if they order them to reveal the data). They sometimes use some pretty confusing marketing slag in general. It’s misleading because they advertise things like in-transit TLS encryption, which is standard nowadays. Even Gmail, Outlook, iCloud, Yahoo and other mainstream email providers have this by default. This is nothing special and they hope that people think it means the same as E2EE. If you care about data ownership, you should also care about (end-to-end) encryption. Only when you are the only key holder, you can be sure that no one can access your private stuff.

Sure, you go ahead and try it out for yourself to see if it works. Just wanted to let you know that selfhosting an Email server is not easy. Regarding ethics, I like Proton because they support privacy, open source software, and they never sold out to VC. Their website is accessible via Tor, they accept Bitcoin payments and they actually care about their users. That’s probably the most ethical email provider you can find.

You need to update Pihole

They probably don’t allow email. Most VPS providers (even paid ones) block SMTP port 25.

I wouldn’t actually selfhost email, it’s not particularly easy and there are many issues you will probably encounter. I recommend ProtonMail, it’s $3.50/month if you only need email and for $8/month you also get calendar, cloud storage, a password manager and a great VPN. Also, they are very focused on privacy and encryption and their apps are open source. Alternatively you can go with IVPN or Mullvad, both are great. Digitalocean has been fine in my experience, have you had any issues with it?

You can get it from F-Droid

RustDesk is FOSS, written in Rust and can be selfhosted.

Something like StackOverflow/StackExchange would be nice. Would also like to see a federated platform for designers/artists (some Dribbble or Adobe Behance alternative).

I was just curious. Use whatever works best for you.
