That is Google, not DuckDuckGo?

For most people, a different desktop environment probably makes a bigger difference than a different distro. They won't notice things like a different package manager

Yep, turns out it doesn't insert its own iptables rules like docker does, so the special rules from ufw-docker weren't necessary anymore.

At least podman does not circumvent my firewall (ufw) like docker did. Had to use a workaround to get it to work with docker.

No problem! I also see Restic a lot in this thread, so I'll probably try both at some point

I see many posts asking about what other lemmings are hosting, but I'm curious about your backups.

I'm using duplicity myself, but I'm considering switching to borgbackup when 2.0 is stable. I've had some problems with duplicity. Mainly the initial sync took incredibly long and once a few directories got corrupted (could not get decrypted by gpg anymore).

I run a daily incremental backup and send the encrypted diffs to a cloud storage box. I also use SyncThing to share some files between my phone and other devices, so those get picked up by duplicity on those devices.

One of the main things is that Paperless applies OCR to each uploaded document, so you're not just searching for the message content and metadata, but also the whole content of the document. Maybe some email clients will do this too. It also has a tagging system which can automatically add tags based on document content. Mostly I just like having everything that's relevant in one place, and only what what is relevant. So if I'm looking for concert tickets I don't find the "order confirmed" and other related emails that do not actually contain the tickets.

I'm really happy with Photoprism as well, it's great to have facial recognition without relying on Google Photos

How has your experience hosting your own email been? I often hear that the big providers (Google, Microsoft, etc.) will simply drop your sent mails.

There's so many:

  • Termux: terminal
  • Tailscale: easily allows for setting up a mesh VPN network, completely unbothered by firewals and NAT. Sometimes I fix stuff on my homeserver from my phone with Termux.
  • Tachiyomi: great manga reader, I only hope that sync gets officialy built in (I'm already using SyncYomi).
  • Revolution IRC: IRC client.
  • Nextcloud: backs up photos on my homeserver instead of Google Photos. Sadly uses a lot of battery, probably because I have around 50K images to scan.
  • Jellyfin: streams shows and films from my homeserver.
  • Fedilab: mastodon client.
  • FairEmail: privacy friendly email app.

SyncThing is amazing! I mainly use it to synchronise Obsidian markdown notes between devices, plus general file sharing. It's great how fast it updates
