I used to use KOreader and calibre web NextGen together. But koreader isn’t nice to use on my current phone as the auto rotate doesn’t really work. So I moved to librera. I’m missing the progress sync, but since I mostly read on my phone, it’s fine.

Went from OpenSUSE way back then, moved to Ubuntu for a while, then when I decided to finally switch totally to Linux, I went with Arch. Last December I migrated to CachyOS and I really like it. I remove a bunch of stuff on installation and I install no DE/WM as I prefer to bring my own config, but as a base, it’s solid and has some stuff already configured that I don’t have to do, like btrfs snapshots for example.

Are you sure about chaotic? I removed it as I thought it wasn’t really checked as I read in a comment here.

To manage my docker containers I migrated from and to multiple tools. I started directly with Unraid with individual containers. Then I discovered docker compose and stacks. So I migrated to portainer. Splitting the postgres and mariadb databases were the worst thing in this. Then I tried dockge, so migrated from portainer to that. It lacked some portainer functionality, but was fine for a short while.

Finally I discovered Komodo and migrated to that as it’s FOSS. Now I’m only on Komodo, I have no server limit (5 on portainer), had all the functionality of portainer and more. It is my go-to docker manager and the one I recommend to everyone. The only “issue” is that you need to write the name of the stack and click confirm twice if you want to redeploy, restart, stop, destroy. Or you have to click confirm twice after saving when you edit your files. Not much of an issue and it can also protect from accidental clicks. My next step will be to migrate my stacks compose and env files from UI defined to files on the server that I can sync.

I personally like combining both on desktop. Scrolling for web and occasional file browser or terminal, tiling for coding and ricing, tiling for messaging apps, etc. It depends on the need. That’s why I went with MangoWC. I keep niri for my laptop though (where I also don’t want blur anyway).

That is cool. I use dcli which is quite nice to use and easily manages dotfiles and scripts. I see you’ve added post install hooks which would allow to manage dotfiles for example.

I really like to use a declarative package manager on a different distro than NixOS. My current install is managed entirely by that tool with specific scripts that modify some config files like fstab for instance.

I have a surface go 3 and a surface pro 7. I installed Arch on both and also enables secure boot. Installing Arch works, but wifi on the installation drive doesn’t work. I plug in a usb hub with Ethernet and I’m fine after. Enabling secure boot is harder, but it can work.

No problem qtile was by far my favorite WM when I used X11. Enjoy your setup!

Is this qtile on Wayland or X11? I used to love qtile, but Wayland features weren’t on par with hyprland. If it’s Wayland, how do you like it?

That is actually very useful. I’m saving that for later.

In French they can be. In France, no because they don’t have a large repertoire of sounds. But in Quebec, all 3 E sounds different.

I migrated from Bitwarden to 1password because I wanted something that works better on Linux. With 1password-cli and PAM integration mainly. Bitwarden worked beautifully under Windows, but once I switched over to Linux, I realised that 1password had more Linux friendly features. I track some discussions over bitwarden that talk about implementing those features, I might come back at some point.

I don’t have it on mine. I finished high school (college) 20 years ago. There are way more relevant things to put in my resume than that.

Thx, for podcasts, I paid for pocketcast a long time ago, so I’m fine for now. I’m mainly looking for this use case, but for a standard RSS reader.

Here is a use case: multiple device sync. With a server client infrastructure, read status are synced to the server, so if I change device, I can pick it up where I left off. Same thing as using a cloud service, but self hosted.

It might. I take the risk. At that point, storage cost will be lower, I’ll just buy a bunch of 20TB drives and build a truenas NAS. In the meantime, I’m satisfied with unraid as I don’t have to spend 2k+ to get 50TB of usable space.

Why would they need production capacity to produce a product that is useless for the NATO military doctrine? That’s just not how NATO countries wage war. Of course they don’t have a good production capacity of a tool they are not likely to use. And even if they wanted to start to produce them at the start of the war, it wouldn’t be ready today, it takes a lot of time and resources to build production capacity from scratch.

I use qtile on X11 and hyprland on Wayland. There is an option on hyprland for exactly that (idleinhibit window rule), but didn’t find a good solution on qtile yet. Anyway I have issues with qtile for other things too (because of X11 mainly).

The worst I did is wanting to replace the WAN interface on my Opnsense router. I didn’t check properly and replaced my LAN interface instead, rendering the router inaccessible and fucking up my network. Luckily, its a VM on proxmox that was still accessible from IP. I just opened a console to the VM and found out that the whole configuration is in a file. Also, a copy is saved with every configuration change. I just found the right one to restore and voilà! My network was back up.

Plex desktop is also only on flathub.
