  I have the same issue. I want something simple but has encryption, native mobile apps for both Android and iOS, and threading. Facebook style posts with comments would be great.

  For now we’re using matrix and element bc I can find anything better. Unless something more compelling comes along we’ll probably migrate to something xmpp based like snikket.

  Has anyone tried selfhosting ente photos? Curious how well it works.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Portable monitor recommendations?⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I got this last year and it has traveled up and down the East Coast, as well to the South West. Gone by plane and car. I have used it with my Surface laptop running Windows for work, my personal Framework 13 running Fedora Linux, and my Nintendo switch.

  Is it great? I don’t know, but it works.

  Joplin has a plug-in that can grab todos and reveal them all in one spot. You can use tags with it as well. Although I believe it only works on desktop? I haven’t tried on phone/tablet. github.com/CalebJohn/joplin-inline-todo#readme

  I’m in the same boat.

  Past: My notes are all over the place. Some are in paper notebooks, on scraps of paper, index cards. Some are plain text files, some are markdown; dumped into random folders (had some in my yyyy/mm/dd folders for my journaling, some in project folders) some are on a wiki, some in redmine, some in openproject. I’ve tried different bug tracking apps, but as mentioned, they (like project management apps) are too burdensome.

  Current: For now I am using Joplin for my active notes (and slowly migrating historical notes as I have energy). I have a top level notebook for my homelab, then a subnotebook broken down by subject (infrastructure, app/service, hardware), then individual pages for each specific item (host os setup, vpn, application, etc). On those individual pages, I have it sectioned out; Goal, Research notes, Actions taken, results.

  • Personal Notes
  • Journal
  • Inbox
  • Homelab
    • Infrastructure
      • Host OS
      • VPN
      • NFS
    • Services
      • Radicale
      • Audiobookshelf
      • etc
    • Hardware
      • node 1
      • node 2
      • node 3
      • router

  Future step: Once I have something figured out and ready for “prod”, I will be wiping it out and redoing it all through ansible. I’ll take that playbook and a clean markdown doc with the important details and put them in git. That way I can rebuild it later if there is a tragedy.

  I have used Baikal for caldav for the server, with davx5 on Android. Was solid. Moved to NC for files, so went ahead with calendar sync on NC too. NC calendar sync has already worked well for me, no hiccups.

  The only issue I’ve had with NC is auto upload of photos from my phone. It constantly has conflicts. Otherwise sync of regular files works great.

  I use MediaTracker.

  I mostly watch stuff on Netflix and Amazon prime, never thought to see if there is a way to auto update my watch history. I’m terrible about remembering to update my watch history.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Calibre Android client (audio & video)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I keep my books in AudioBookShelf and use the android app to download to my phone. But, AudioBookShelf doesn’t work on Android Auto, so I use Voice to play the books in my car. They can share storage which makes it nice.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Selfhosted private/secure blog/journal⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I use Monica. The journal function is meh and a pain to use from phone. Otherwise I love it. When I meet new people through my friend group, I add them so I can remember details about them for next time we meet.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Selfhosted private/secure blog/journal⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m trying this out. Installed both on phone and laptop last night.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Selfhosted private/secure blog/journal⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I use Joplin for keeping various notes and would rather not combine it with my journal.

  I’m looking for something like DayOne or billthefarmers Diary app that is easy to use from mobile, but then has a selfhosted website I can use to go back and review/relive/edit the experiences.

  Does Obsidian support audio/video?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Selfhosted private/secure blog/journal⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Memos looks pretty good with the MoeMemos app. Although it doesn’t look like video/audio is supported.
