Cosmos has a comparison chart if it helps: github.com/azukaar/Cosmos-Server?tab=readme-ov-fi…
Other than that you’ll have to test out what fits your needs best. I use YunoHost and am happy with it, but I don’t expose my services

Good suggestion

I’m playing right now. When Verso tries to recruit Monoco to go to old Lumière, Monoco is like “No thanks, after last time I made a promise to never follow you again”, to which Verso responds “There’ll be lots of fights…”, and Monoco is “I’ll follow you anywhere!”. The delivery is a lot better obviously.

Witcher 3, which I played like 3 months ago. There was this one goofy quest where you had to save a mage by getting a magic book with a weird name that you could abbreviate to GOG. You needed a spell from it to disable the mage’s tower defence and regulatory management system (something along those lines), or DRM for short.
- Comment on Rise of the Tomb Raider -SteamDeck 3 weeks ago:
Got into Expedition 33 this week. Just got to the point where the huge stuffed puppet learned to swim. Gotta say, I don’t get the hype.
I think they tried to souls-likify a JRPG. But it just feels like combat is one QTE challenge after the other. No other mechanic really matters, at least on normal mode. Also it feels like the main story, which seems fresh and intriguing, barely gets glanced over, while interpersonal relationships get a korean drama level exposition.
I’ll tag along for a little while longer because the voice acting is stellar. The rest is meh IMHO
- Comment on Microsoft builds on Recall with Gaming Copilot — fails basic privacy tests 3 weeks ago:
Having this info because of legitimate needs to provide a service and a third party processing it with AI without explicit consent for their benefit is a huge difference.
- Comment on Microsoft builds on Recall with Gaming Copilot — fails basic privacy tests 3 weeks ago:
Of course I am referring to info my teammates would know too. Are you inferring that it’s fine that big corporations are profiling you based on what you’re chatting with your friends about?

To all the people in this thread hyping Linux. Please remember that those screenshots capture you as well if you play with windows users. If this becomes a staple and you refuse to be AI fodder, then multiplayer is pretty much dead to you.
- Comment on Amazon to replace 600,000 US workers by 2033 with robots 3 weeks ago:
In theory this is awesome. Humans aren’t built for menial tasks. All repetitive monotonous tasks should be automated. However, this doesn’t fit our current economic system. Obviously all automation needs to be taxed, so that we don’t have to live this paradox where each technological advancement is a risk to our livelihood.

AVGN did an episode on that game. He liked the cover too.
- Comment on Getting old and would like a better way to track health the self hosted way 4 weeks ago:
I use Track & Graph from F-Droid for a similar purpose. I noticed pretty quickly that the data I want to track just isn’t generic enough to find a tailored app for it. So I setup several reminders through the app to enter the various measurements at set points in time each day and get a nice graph to dislay it.

- Comment on Apple has REMOVED the ICEBlock app from the App Store due to “objectionable content.” 1 month ago:
Call me a conspiracy nut job , but I honestly think we live in a new age where it’s the other way around. Megacorps are creating a situation where governments are set up to fail and then swoop in to save the day “alien earth” style, so everyone can be forced into lifetime indentured service.
- Comment on Apple has REMOVED the ICEBlock app from the App Store due to “objectionable content.” 1 month ago:
While I full heartily agree with you, I’m pessimistic you will ever reach enough people with these alternatives. Even on privacy forums you hear people fervently defending how banking apps are mandatory. Those will never run on anything that isn’t locked down. The eID proposal for the EU is also dependent on Android and iOS.

At the least you would know it’s happening and that you’ve been compromised. A hoster might also be inclined to be a lot more accommodating than you are. And mass imformation requests do happen. You wouldn’t even be targeted if you host locally. The privacy advantages are numerous

Serious question. With inflation absolutely exploding everywhere, stock market being what you just described here, and property ownership being virtually impossible due to big corpos gulping everything up: how is anyone supposed to prevent their money from melting away nowadays?

Financial issues among the general populace due to consolidation of wealth > oligarchs create propaganda that brown people are to blame > uneducated masses vote for authoritarian with empty promises

- Comment on Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week? 4 months ago:
A friend convinced me to pick up RE Village because it suposedly plays more like an FPS than a classical RE horror game. I did beat Dimitrescu recently and I kinda have to disagree with him. There are so many moments that feel very tense because enemies aren’t vulnerable because “magic” so you have to play cat and mouse like in RE 3 with Nemesis. I do like it enough that I’ll keep at it though. Love turning those red rooms blue on the map.

- Comment on The first weekly What Are You Playing? thread! 5 months ago:
Finally starteed playing Kingdom Come Deliverance 1. A lot of the design decisions in the game are antithetic to my idea of fun. But there’s a healthy mkd community and a handfull of QOL mlds later I’m having an absolute blast
- Comment on What games did you get down with over the holiday weekend? 5 months ago:
Finally took it upon myself to play Kingdom Come Deliverance 1. So glad there’s a healthy mod community. It’s a wonderful story with an immersive world and addicting athmosphere. But the mechanics really show the indy roots. A lot of decisions have been made to remove quality of life to increase realism, without actually adding realism. Archery is the best example of this. No aim dot makes sense in a simulation. But why can’t I aim then? I now have about a dozen mods that reintroduce QOL into the game and now I’m properly hooked and having a great time.
