I just recently learned that openSUSE users also have a lot of stability due to btrfs snapshots, so maybe that’s really the feature I’m looking for. I don’t know much about it, honestly.

I’m been daily driving openSUSE Tumbleweed for almost a year and from my end there are no problems with it. In fact, no problem that can be pinned to the particular distro.

I ran into an audio issue with my Bluetooth Headset in Kernel 6.9 3, with sound profiles not appearing. However, this has now been fixed since 2 kernel updates, (eg.it was a bug in the kernel)

The snapshot feature is awesome and always worked without a hitch when I have been tinkering with stuff I dont know how it works.

It has my recommendation. Good for gaming as its a rolling release with all the new stuff to boot.

Dr. Disrespect?

Oh, remember the good old Nexus 7. Had only a fraction of its performance 1-2 years down the line…

Hahaha. Shit, I didn’t even get that far before the touch digitalizer broke. Maybe 8 months in and dead.

I got mad because my mom bought it in the US. Didn’t sell in my country. What a piece of shit.

Edit: It was made by ASUS!

Everything Dell is just garbage.

I remember subbing to r/dell and all you ever saw was people with problems with Dell/Alienware hardware.

The web browser doesn’t care if the application is behind one, two or three rproxies. If I can still get to your application and guess your password or exploit a known vulnerability in your application then it’s game over.

Right!?

Your castle can have many walls of protection but if you leave the doors/ports open, people/traffic just passes through.

Hehehe. That’s just plain mean.

I use „tasks“ for that. When i prepare to go grocery shopping I go to my fridge, open the completed „shopping“ tasks list and uncomplete what is empty. I then complete them again in the mall. Of course the list is hosted on my server.

A man of culture I see.

Selfhosted task list. There is where we stand united my friend.

I’m not so sure. Can you really trust Big Tech with your data?

Yeah, sure don’t want Skynet built-in on my Linux Distro.

That’s what donations are for.

Also, many opensource services can be selfhosted for free, while the company/developer gets they payment via donations and/or charging a support service fee to enterprises/people.

That and exposure to the homelab community which in turn can lead to future implementation in enterprise.

Except for the statements that Apple is a better option for privacy. Its not.

Any OS or app that is not opensource code can’t be trusted.

Whoogle (through Tor)? ;)

Or searx??

Librewolf and Signal user.

A man of culture I see.

An efficient solution would to just stop using Google’s services all together. That way they can’t spy on you so easily and make a profile from your internet habits.

There are plenty of alternatives to Google services in the opensource realm.

“Core apps” are better on baremetal for seamless system integration.

Just use flatpaks for everything else.

Yeah, maybe Slowroll is better for for that kind of bandwidth limitation. It is still pretty fast paced in the update department.

When I installed Tumbleweed not so long ago, I also had problems. The installer is notorious for giving you an unusable system sometimes, even when using the defaults.

I have been running Tumbleweed “stock” on my desktop for about 10 months now and truth to be told I never had a problem with it, including updates. Rock stable with a nice snapshot feature as a safety net.

That’s why I’ll wait to install Kalpa on the desktop. Just no reason for it.

I have of course run into bugs but those came from KDE. Can’t really blame Tumbleweed for those.

In fact, Tumbleweed is the reason I went all in with Linux and ditched dual booting Windows, as I had been bit pretty hard early on my linux journey with other distros and made me think twice using Linux as a daily-reliable-driver.

Yes, I couldn’t even use whoogle with the free tier as I got ratelimited on normal search queries.

Needless to say that many ppl share the same (proton vpn IP) on the free tier.

Yeah. Docker for servers.

Flatpak for Desktops/Laptops.

Although I currently run my Docker stack on my desktop because my NAS server broke down. But its on servers Docker really shines.

Feel free to take it as a chance to present yourself to the community!

Hello, my name is Zingo and I have a selfhosting addition going back to 2016 when I bought my first NAS with docker capabilities.

Community: Hi Zingo! Welcome!

Thank you.

Currently struggling more than even as it starts to take over my life. I have tried over hundreds of services.

I’ll try to find strength to list some at a later stage in this healing process. Sorry no bonus points. Maybe in the next session.

Thank you all for this awesome support. I would be lost without you. 💓
