- Comment on What Calendar and To Do solution do you recommend? 1 week ago:
My email calendars I leave alone, but I use caldav for personal calendar and tasks.
I use radicale as caldav server, and tasks.org on android and thunderbird on computer. Tasks.org works very well
I also use silverbullet for more complex todo lists
- Comment on Which RSS aggregator do you use? I cannot seem to find one that works for me. 1 week ago:
I use miniflux, and flux news app on android. It looks nice and works well (i posted about it some time ago lemmy.world/post/9574514 )
I am not missing any features, but I am not doing anything fancy. I have grouped the rss feeds, if that counts as filtering
I have used it for a long time now, and I don’t have an urge to try and find something better, like I do for some other self hosted stuff.
- Comment on In search of software for managing like a helpdesk but in a lite format 4 weeks ago:
I might miss your target, but have you considered tasks.org android app + caldav?
I have been using silverbullet the last few months, but I struggle keeping up with its updates (too bleeding edge at the moment). I has a lot of nice features like all markdown, queries and templates.
Now I am back to tasks.org app + radicale self-hosted caldav server. For tasks it flows so well on android. for windows you need to use something that supports caldav, like thunderbird.
When silverbullet matures and if it is still fast and offline, I might go back. It has a lot of nice stuff going on. I still use for stuff like recipes and travel lists
- Comment on Migrate from nextcloud photo backups to immich? 4 weeks ago:
I used it for a few years, but it broke a few times, and I had to search online and find an
occ
command to fix it. It also could break if you didn’t upgrade regularly and skipped versions. Or you upgraded too quickly before a bug was hotfixed.Maybe it is better now, but I looked into alternatives and found syncthing to be awesome (after I switched from iphone to android). I use samba share for cold storage. Syncthing can take a lot of space since it syncs all the files to all units
- Comment on My take on selfhosted photo management 1 month ago:
I ended up with syncthing + the default gallery app on my samsung galaxy phone. It works well for me.
But I don’t have a crazy amount of images, the phone storage needs to be large enough.
- Comment on SilverBullet: the self-hosted notes app for people with a hacker mindset 2 months ago:
I tried this, but couldn’t find a better editor as android app. The closest I got was Zettel notes. But silverbullet worked better
- Comment on SilverBullet: the self-hosted notes app for people with a hacker mindset 2 months ago:
Yes, I have used it for many months. It has been the best solution for my use case for a while. Which is tasks, shopping, planning (trips, …), recipes, and a simple knowledgebase. It was the offline support that set it apart from some other solutions
I have the files in a syncthing folder, so I can access the files without running silverbullet
My biggest problem is keeping up with all the changes. Zef made some youtube videos that are helpful
- Comment on Webmail client with decent search and large mailbox support? 2 months ago:
I installed k-9 mail / Thunderbird on my android phone and set it to sync all emails, so I have local copy on my phone
- Comment on Fighting with immich 3 months ago:
I also have internal only traffic, but I still use let’s encrypt. I self signed for a couple of years, but switching to proper certificates made things much simpler and better. Especially on mobile. I use a combination of my own domain and caddy. and duckdns, since my domain registrar does not have an api caddy can use, but I can point my domain to my duckdns domain and it works 👍
- Comment on Any good RSS Feed service for self-hosting? 4 months ago:
I too use miniflux and I like it
I made a post some weeks ago lemmy.world/post/9574514
- Comment on Can I build a NAS out of a desktop? [Request] 4 months ago:
This is what I do, using proxmox.
I do something similar to youtu.be/Hu3t8pcq8O0 for the NAS bit. Then I have a VM with docker containers for different services
- Comment on What's your favorite note-taking application? 4 months ago:
I use silverbullet, it is great for tasks and notes! silverbullet.md - the manual itself uses it, so it is both a manual and a demo page
- Comment on Miniflux + News App 4 months ago:
I’m trying it out now 🙂 I didn’t know about this one, thanks!
I miss the swipe to mark as read. Otherwise it looks nice, I’ll try it for a few days!
- Comment on What's the point on hosting RSS reader's? 4 months ago:
For me, it makes the clients disposable. I can reinstall the laptop, desktop, phone and be up and running in no time, without doing backups and preparation. Also it is easy to jump between clients.
The server needs to be backed up though
- Comment on Miniflux + News App 4 months ago:
It works OK from the web page, but scrolling to the next item was a bit wonky for me. Using the swipe mode mis-fired when I was horisontally scrolling code. And double tapping didn’t always work.
The UX feels smoother in News. You also get thumbnail images. And you can open the link to the source directly, which I prefer for some of my feeds. For me, the experience is smoother.

- Comment on Nextcloud vs Syncthing for PKM notes? 5 months ago:
I have used both, and syncthing is the most stable in my opinion. But you will get sync conflicts/ duplicates if you work on the same file
For working on markdown files you should additionally look into silverbullet.md , it’s great 🙂. It has offline mode. But it will also generate duplicates if you edit the same file offline
- Comment on After I’m Gone Backup Solution 5 months ago:
Yes, sorry - I meant the storage space on mobile phone. or a laptop.
- Comment on After I’m Gone Backup Solution 5 months ago:
I don’t have a solution really, but I’m also thinking along your lines.
For files I share with my girlfriend, I have set up syncthing. So my server and our phones have a copy of the files, I like this solution. But it wouldn’t work for large amounts of data.
For my server stuff, it is backed up encrypted on backblaze. so I guess that is lost. Most files are also rsynced onto a usb drive connected to a raspberry pi (not encrypted). So that should be accessible, except for a linux’y filesystem (probably ext4) that doesn’t work on windows
- Comment on Typehere Docker image now on Dockerhub 5 months ago:
I agree. It is under rapid development I replaced memos + markdown file editing with silverbullet some months back and I use it more and more. It has optional offline support
- Comment on Typehere Docker image now on Dockerhub 5 months ago:
Have you considered silverbullet? the documentation uses silverbullet, and is editable (but not persistent) so you can test how it feels
- Comment on RPGs for people who don't like RPGs 6 months ago:
Nice!
In my opinion, the arkham games got progressively better (except origins) - my favorite is Arkham Knight.
- Comment on RPGs for people who don't like RPGs 6 months ago:
Have you looked into the Batman Arkham series? They have great stories, and feel kinda Zelda in that you get new tools as you progress. There are puzzles which I don’t always love, but maybe you do.
There is combat, but you can play on easy. And you upgrade your skills, but it is not very crucial to the experience.
And also maybe portal? Not very rpg, but environment changes as you progress.
- Comment on Simple guide to self hosted authentication? 7 months ago:
I use nforwardauth and caddy for authentication, I think it is one of the simplest solutions github.com/nosduco/nforwardauth
- Comment on Looking for selfhosted app for managing and playing podcasts 7 months ago:
I have used it for a long time, I like it too. I use the local podcast feeds from podgrab into antennapod on android.
In the beginning I used the tags feeds to have a single feed for all podcasts of a certain category. But now I have a feed for each podcast like normal people.
- Comment on Selfhosted private/secure blog/journal 8 months ago:
I did a quick search on their github issue tracker, it looks to me like it supports audio and video
- Comment on Selfhosted private/secure blog/journal 8 months ago:
Hm ok. I know you can attach files. but maybe it is not shown inline.
I am not using it anymore so I can’t check. it doesn’t have offline mode which I need for my use case
- Comment on Selfhosted private/secure blog/journal 8 months ago:
Memos might be a good option for you github.com/usememos/memos
- Comment on Docker compose questions 8 months ago:
Not a direct answer to your question, but I learned a bit by searching github for Dockerfile and docker-compose.yml
- Comment on What do you prefer for a self hosted calendar? 8 months ago:
I also use radicale.
For events with other people I use gmail or mailbox calendar though…
