If that’s your intend than it might be better to pick individual arch wiki pages or improve the entry documentation. Many people refer to there from all distro because of its volume.

A “how to read tech documentation” could add value for this target group.

User perspective:

If you want something big I’d pitch nixos. As in the core distribution. It’s a documentation nightmare and as a user I had to go over options search and then trying to figure out what they mean more often than I found a comprehensive documentation.

That would be half writing and half coordinating writers though I suspect.

Another great project with mixed quality documentation is openhab. It fits the bill of more backend heavy side and the devs are very open in my experience. I see it actually as superior in its core concepts to the way more popular home assistant in every aspect except documentation!

That said: thanks for putting the effort in! ♥

Ah that would make sense, thanks!

I haven’t found (while cross reading ) details about why the “highly improved” didn’t make it to upstream openwrt?

According to their page it’s a pure searxng instance. I didn’t see anything on my own instance changing so there are three options I see:

• The mentioned server side changes (e.g. A server move you mentioned but could also be server settings, provider settings, etc).
• client side changes: somehow your Firefox provides different information to alter the results
• subjective change: it’s always a possibility that either what you searched or your perception was more fine tuned to Cyrillic.

And then there’s the obligatory “none or all of the above”.

Personally I’d guess it’s just a fluke. I gave it a few searches from Firefox mobile on “all languages” and had a mix of mainly English and a bit of German und French in there as results.

Edit: if you’re comfortable with that feel free to share some search terms and we can compare results. Would be curious myself!

The first link goes into amazing detail on that. In short: all your information concerning location as well as current IP and some other metadata gets send to a basically unknown company with no transparency on how that data is handled.

I highly recommend reading the first, linked post though!

Black and White was really fun for me as well for a time - it’s basically a god simulation combined with a zoo game as you have to grow your avatar basically.

Loved populous back then, if I recall correctly I even liked two more than one!

As they are closed source no one can tell you their true privacy policy. It seems better than average from what I’ve read but you never know…

Personally I use logseq and sync the files via a Nextcloud instance. I can only recommend it, although I also recommend spending an hour to learn the tagging and linking logic and reading through their guide on what’s possible. I still only leverage a minor part of the potential myself.

One that is closer to onenote (I think, never used onenote) is Joplin.

It literally is!

linux printing server - if you want to share a printer over network or just use one locally on a linux machine.

(not OP but same boat) Doesn’t really matter to me because google knows my servers external IP which is a non-issue: I don’t expect google to try to attack me individually but crawl data about me. There is no automatic link between my server and my personal browsing habits.

In terms of attack vector vs ease of use , self hosting searxng is a nobrainer for me - but I do have an external server available for things like that anyway so no additional overhead needed.

A Dockerfile itself is the instruction set. There is a certain minimum requirement expected from a server admin that differs from end-user requirements.

The ease of docker obfuscates that quite a bit but if you want to go full bare metal (or full AWS or GCS, etc etc) then you need to manage the full admin part as well - including custom deployments.

No worries I phrased that quite weird I think.

A NAS is only more power efficient if the additional power of a full server is not used. If for some reason the server is still needed than the NAS will be additional power consumption and not save anything.

(for example I run some quite RAM and compute heavy things on my server which no stock NAS could handle I think).

That would replace the computer with the NAS though and is not true for a server that you’d want to extend, right?

Is that 370watt across all of them or per fat server? I ask because three m5 sound like a lot of power drain!.

And thanks for sharing!

I didn’t know that about the immich app, thanks for pointing it out!

Then you need a third application (e.g. syncthing) to replicate the auto upload functionality of Nextcloud.

Personally I don’t want to have same functionality in a different stack because of pipeline issues. Doesn’t solve OPs issue I just wanted to point out that your solution might have drawbacks OP didn’t see at first glance :)

Thank you! That’s really interesting, the performance with a pi 3 was way worse - even more than the pure spec difference would’ve lead me to believe.

The OCR devs have made a really awesome job!

You are running a specific module of a project locally - not the whole project. The web server is an integral part - leaving it out makes you do a bit of the leg work: you’d need to figure out how the websites get built and deployed and then reverse engineer that for your android environment.

Personally I’m fascinated by that attempt and it could be an awesome learning opportunity. To be honest I don’t have the motivation to follow your path down this rabbit hole though.

If you decide to follow up I’d appreciate you giving updates from time to time about your insights! ♥

Thanks for sharing! The only thing I’m surprised to see in your list is paperless - how long does OCR take on a pi?
