kanboard.org with some plugins maybe?
- Comment on FOSS & Self-Hosted fundraising infrastructures 6 days ago:
Currently only the Stripe backend supports recurrent payments by charging a credit card automatically. For Taler I plan to add an invoice like reminder email to simulate something similar.
One time payments are of course supported by both.
- Comment on FOSS & Self-Hosted fundraising infrastructures 6 days ago:
I started working on a modernized Fosspay fork and also got a small NLnet grant to add GNU Taler support to it. Sadly I am extremely busy with another project the next three months, but I expect to make some progress on it before the end of the year.
My repo can be foung here: f-hub.org/Meta/contributron
- Comment on Software for Homeserver router combo 1 week ago:
The R3 isn’t really powerful enough for that.
On small x86 routers you can install Opnsense or IPfire which come with some non-router software to run a reverse-proxy or so. IP fire also allows to run full VMs, but the more advanced features are pretty limited.
Some people also do the reverse and run a full OS on them and then virtualize Opnsense and directly pass through a NIC to that VM.
- Comment on Cost of running a mastodon instance 2 weeks ago:
To give you ballpark figures. Self-hosting will not save you much compared to that.
Software like Akkoma or GoToSocial will save you some CPU and RAM costs, but are more optimized for smaller instances.

No, a good example would have been the Frelimo fight against the Portuguese colonialists in Mozambique that resulted in a declaration of independence and the creation of a new state.
The example of Zimbabwe is is somewhere between that and the relatively reformist transition in South Africa, as Rhodesia (in agreement with their government) briefly reverted to being a British colony on paper to conduct elections which the previous rebel forces won and then formally declared independence from the UK.
I find it highly slanderous to be labled a “Rhodesia lover” for simply stating historical facts. Rhodesia was a racist apartheit state I am absolutly opposed to.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
Please stop lying. I never defend Rhodesia in any shape or form. I simply stated the fact that Zimbabwe is considered the successor state by international law and shared some historical facts that you can also read up on the Wikipedia or any history book.

Down votes are public on Lemmy, and your account alone did enough harrassment, but yes I am pretty sure you also have at least two sock puppet accounts you also use to harrass people.
Get a life, you are embarrassing yourself 🤷
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
The down-vote and reply pattern is clear 🤷
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
They have been following me around on Lemmy the last couple of hours and called me a fascist and liar among many other falsehoods 🤷
- Comment on 2 weeks ago:
This is pretty cool. I hope they will also add GNU Taler support like Flohmarkt itself.
- Comment on self hosted browser sync? 2 weeks ago:
Yeah I wish there was a good answer to that. Floccus at least works ok for bookmarks.
- Comment on Using DVD slot for second 3.5" drive? 3 weeks ago:
AFAIK the “wear” does not mainly come from the spinning, but from temperature changes that make parts slightly expand and contract in size. An always on HDD has pretty constant temperature.
- Comment on Using DVD slot for second 3.5" drive? 3 weeks ago:
Be careful with powering HDDs on and off. That is actually the operation that puts the most strain on them AFAIK. Sadly there is no good rule of thumb when it does more harm than good, but I would guess if you turn it on more than once a week, you are probably doing more harm than good compared to just letting in run. Many people even intentionally turn off sleep-mode in “green” drives so that they don’t shut down automatically.
- Comment on Using DVD slot for second 3.5" drive? 3 weeks ago:
This isn’t about a laptop, but a full desktop case with 5.25" slots. 3.5" fit fine into these with a different kind of adapter.
- Comment on InlineStyle, open fediverse based cloud 3 weeks ago:
I find XMPP much more useful for day-to-day communication with people I know. Matrix has more IRC like public channels, but only a few are sufficiently active compared to Discord or even IRC.
But running an XMPP server is also extremely hassle free and uses little server resources, while running a Matrix server is quite involved and will likely need a beefy dedicated server just for it alone.
- Comment on InlineStyle, open fediverse based cloud 3 weeks ago:
XMPP chat accounts on the same address as Email would be nice.
- Comment on What are some cool projects that I can do with a 1st gen Raspberry Pi? 3 weeks ago:
An IRC server would work, but I think having to deal with 32bit ARM will be too annoying.
- Comment on 🐌 Slow Software for a Burning World 🔥 3 weeks ago:
It is what you make out of it. Basically it is an ActivityPub federated framework with various modules including one for microblogging.

- Comment on Why does Lemmy use "@" instead of ":" like Matrix does? 4 weeks ago:
The bigger question is why Matrix didn’t follow the long established standard for this, which is using @.
But I guess it fits into the general pattern of: Monolithic, Awefully Trendy ReImplementation of XMPP (MATRIX).
P.S.: it’s nice to be able to have your ActivityPub, XMPP and Email all on the same address 👍

Seems like an obvious suggestion, but Nextcloud can do that quite well.

That seems like a fun toy. Thanks for sharing.

- Comment on Building Cheap & Efficient Home Servers with... Laptops? | Hardware Haven 4 weeks ago:
Especially when starting out it can also be quite helpful to have a screen and keyboard attached to the server and not only SSH access.
To prevent battery issues it is often possible to limit the charge level in the bios.

- Comment on U.S. Secretary of Commerce says the ‘new model’ is factory jobs for life—for you, your kids, and your grandkids 4 weeks ago:
The factory owners just copied that from the Prussian model that was meant to train children to be good soldiers. Not that that would be any better…

You could probably approximate some similar with Odoo. It is a big ERP, but all modular, so you can just remove the parts that are too complex.
