Do you mean a Docker container registry? If so, here are a couple options:

• Use the official Docker registry: https://www.docker.com/blog/how-to-use-your-own-registry-2/
• Self-host forgejo or gitea and use the included package registry, which is automatically enabled. Details: https://forgejo.org/docs/latest/user/packages/

I primarily use Standard Notes. It’s a fantastic tool and I can use it anywhere, online or offline. It’s not great for collaboration, though, and it doesn’t have a canvas option. But I use it for scratch pads, for todo lists, for project tracking, for ideas, plans, plotting for my tabletop (Monster of the Week) game, software design and architecture, for drafting comments, etc…

Standard Notes also has a ton of options for automated backups. I get a daily email with a backup of my notes; I can host my notes on my home server and the corporate one; I can also set up automated backups on any desktop.

I don’t use it for saving links. I’m still using Raindrop.io for that, even though I’m self-hosting both Linkding and Linkwarden.

For sharing and collaboration, I either publish to Listed with Standard Notes or use Hedgedoc, which is great for collaboration and does a great job presenting nodes, too.

For canvas notes, I use GoodNotes on a tablet or the Onyx Boox’s default Notes app. I’d love a better FOSS, self-hosted option, especially for the Boox, but my experiences thus far have been negative (especially on the Boox).

I’ve been trying out SilverBullet lately, since I want to try out cross-note querying and all that, but I’m too stuck in my habits and keep going back to Standard Notes. I think I’ll have better luck if I choose one app and go with it.

I also have a collection of Mnemosyne notebooks that I use with fountain pens (mostly the Lamy 2000, but also quite commonly a Platinum 3776 or a Twsbi). Side note: the Lamy 2000 was my first fountain pen and after getting it I went deep into fountain pens. I explored a ton of different options, found a lot of nice pens across a number of brands… and yet how I still haven’t found something that I consistently like more. The Pilot VP is great but deceptive; a fancy clicky pen that only holds 30 minutes of ink (in a converter, at least) is decidedly inconvenient.

I’ve also been checking out Obsidian on my work computer. So far I haven’t seen anything that makes me prefer it over my existing set of tools.

Hedgedoc is fantastic. If you’re okay with your notes app being web-only (without an app or even a PWA) and you don’t need canvas notes or multi-note queries, you should check it out.

First, every note is Markdown, but it supports a ton of things natively. It has native Vim, Emacs, and Sublime (the default) editors and it’s built to be great for collaboration (if you want).

It also has

• syntax highlighting for a ton of languages
• Mermaid.js support
• LaTeX support
• easy drag and drop image uploads
• a solid mobile interface (for a webapp in your browser, at least)
• built in revision history
• support for other diagram tools, like graphviz, flowchart.js
• a bunch of other little Markdown enhancements that make using it feel oddly intuitive

And best of all, they have a Hedgehog for the icon! (I may be biased.)

If a communication norm is just about other people’s preferences, why should they change? Who’s to say that other people’s preferences are more important than their own, particularly given that this particular preference is shared by millions of other people.

If inconsistent use of capitalization actually hinders understanding for some subset of their audience, then that’s a different story. My experience is that people are more likely to be annoyed than to actually have issues understanding all lowercase text. All caps text, on the other hand, is a different matter - and plenty of government and corporate entities are fine putting important text in all caps. But all caps text is a known accessibility issue. When I search for “all lowercase accessibility,” though, all I get is a bunch of results saying to not use all caps text for accessibility reasons.

If you have sources showing that all lowercase text is an accessibility concern, then you should share them. Heck, you should have led with that. But as it is, your argument ultimately boils down to “someone else should change what they do, that works for them, because it annoys me.”

Both of the reasons you’ve provided are nonsensical:

• It isn’t performed automatically if you disable it, and they did (and explained why)
• They said they don’t believe capitalization aids with clarity. They didn’t express the same opinion about punctuation and paragraph breaks.

Good catch, I didn’t realize that with AnyType. That makes my first recommendation to OP just SilverBullet, then. Source available is better than nothing, like with Obsidian, but OP specifically asked for FOSS repos. It looks like their peer to peer sync server is MIT licensed, but their client (and client library) code is licensed under the “Any Source Available License 1.0,” which restricts use other than for “personal, academic, scientific, or research and development use, or evaluating the Software, but does not include uses where the Software facilitates any transaction of economic value.”

I ruled out Logseq’s sync service due to it being both paid ($60/year minimum) and not FOSS, both things OP asked for. For my purposes, since it’s not FOSS and not able to be self hosted, it’s not a good option. But it makes sense to use the same file syncing solution that’s already in use, whether that’s FolderSync (or some equivalent tool) set up to sync to my server, Syncthing (though I just realized its Android client is no longer being developed as of December 2024), or even Cryptomator + some cloud storage service.

Since you’re already using Standard Notes - have you checked out Awesome Standard Notes? You can use the community extensions - editors, themes, etc. - even with the free plan.

It’s my main note-taking app, but I also got the 5 year paid plan for $150 (IIRC) a few years ago, and prices have increased substantially since then. If I weren’t locked into a lower rate, I’m not sure I’d subscribe at the current rates (though I would look into the self-hosted Pro discount before ruling it out). That said, if you don’t need note linking, queries, and those sorts of things, then I think the free plan of Standard Notes + community extensions is a great option. If I self-hosted the server, the main thing I’d be missing over the paid plan is nested tags.

Logseq (repo) might meet your needs if you’re okay setting up a sync service like Syncthing on every client you use. Of course, you could use Dropbox, Google Drive, etc., but I recommend against it without a layer like Cryptomator in between, since your data is store in the clear. IMO it doesn’t really make sense to self-host Logseq - just use the native app that’s available on basically every platform. I find Logseq kinda confusing, honestly, but it has a lot of compelling features.

SilverBullet may be what you’re looking for. It must be self-hosted and has a PWA instead of native apps, but the PWA on mobile at least is quite good. Since it uses Markdown files for its notes, you could use it with some other tool on the machine hosting those files, if you wanted. I have it self hosted myself and it’s the best alternative I’ve found to Notion and Obsidian when it comes to querying my own notes and so on.

Someone else posted about Outline and I think it’s a fantastic, polished option. I know that you said this is for solo use, so you probably don’t care about its collaboration features, but you also mentioned managing personal projects, and its integrations (e.g., Airtable) could be useful for that. I have it self-hosted and it is a bit more complicated than other options, but I don’t think I ran into any particular issues. I’m using it with Authelia as an OIDC provider and can share my docker-compose file and other config if that would be helpful. They also have a paid, hosted option, which you can try out for 30 days if you want to see if it’s right for you before you put the time and effort into self-hosting it. One of my most-used editors in Standard Notes is the Rich Markdown Editor, which is based off the editor used in Outline. However, unlike SilverBullet and Standard Notes,

Hedgedoc is another option that may be worth looking into. It’s my go-to collaborative editor / gist replacement. Personally, I prefer it over Outline. Its main shortcomings are that:

• it must be self-hosted (though you could use HackMD aka CodiMD, which it was forked from, as that does have a hosted version)
• it doesn’t have an app (on any platform - not even a PWA)
• it doesn’t have any sort of querying capabilities, and
• it doesn’t have any sort of Kanban-like tool.

But it does have several built-in integrations, like Mermaid and multiple other diagramming tools, inline images (just drag and drop), syntax highlighting for code, Gist embeds, Youtube embeds, optional Vim/Emacs keybindings, a slide deck presentation mode, inline CSV tables, etc., and that’s all without needing to mess with plugins or switch between editors.

I hadn’t used AnyType before today, but it’s been on my radar since late 2020, and it’s pretty powerful. It’s not perfect, but it seems to check off everything you’re looking for. It does have a bit of a learning curve, but it’s been easy to jump in and take notes.

It’s hard to know which to recommend you try, though, because your list of criteria don’t all map neatly to features. For example, what do you want from planning vs managing personal projects? What do you mean by “journaling?” Is having a “journal” section where notes get dates sufficient? Do you like the way Standard Notes or Logseq handle journaling, or are you looking for features like what jtxBoard has?

I’m assuming the following for my table below:

• Quick Notes - easy to create a new note and just write some stuff. Needing to fill out any required fields (even “title”) make this a ❌
• To-do lists - checkbox lists. You have to be able to add a new item by pressing enter and mark an item off just by checking the box.
• Managing and planning projects:
  • Kanban / Trello style board - without needing to integrate with a non-FOSS third party service (this is why Outline gets a ❌)
  • Linking to another note in the body of a note (Standard Notes lets you create a link in the tag bar - this doesn’t count)
  • Embedded querying of your other notes, treating notes like objects - really the thing that makes Notion so powerful
  • Easy table editor
  • Diagrams - Mermaid, Excalidraw, or a similar plugin that works natively
• Easy to use - auto-saving of notes, automatic synchronization that “just works,” rich text copy-paste, etc…
• Offline mode - You didn’t mention this, but I’m calling it out since it’s otherwise easy to take for granted.
• Publishing - you mentioned not caring about collaboration, but being able to publish a note is still useful in solo-only workflows, as it gives you a way to reference it directly from a bookmark, some other tool, etc., potentially from a device where you aren’t authenticated.

[1]: For Standard Notes, I’m not assuming that you’re self-hosting the server, but I am assuming that you’re installing community extensions, particularly Rich Markdown Editor or something similar.
[2]: For Silver Bullet, I’m assuming that you’re installing community plugins.

I recommend you try AnyType and/or SilverBullet first, depending on which one looks more appealing to you.

Giphy has a documented API that you could use. There have been bulk downloaders, but I didn’t see any that had recent activity. However you still might be able to use one to model your own script after, like https://github.com/jcpsimmons/giphy-stacks

There were downloaders for Gfycat - gallery-dl supported it at one point - but it’s down now. However you might be able to find collections that other people downloaded and are now hosting. You could also use the Internet Archive - they have tools and APIs documented

There’s a Tenor mass downloader that uses the Tenor API and an API key that you provide.

Imgur has GIFs is supported by gallery-dl, so that’s an option.

Also, read over https://github.com/simon987/awesome-datahoarding - there may be something useful for you there.

In terms of hosting, it would depend on my user base and if I want users to be able to upload GIFs, too. If it was just my close friends, then Immich would probably be fine, but if we had people I didn’t know directly using it, I’d want a more refined solution.

There’s Gifable, which is pretty focused, but looks like it has a pretty small following. I haven’t used it myself to see how suitable it is. If you self-host it (or something else that uses S3), note that you can use MinIO or LocalStack for the S3 container rather than using AWS directly. I’m using MinIO as part of my stack now, though for a completely different app.

MediaCMS is another option. Less focused on GIFs but more actively developed, and intended to be used for this sort of purpose.

Unless something has changed, it did. The page linked reads:

And, obviously, this POC is open source, the code is publish here on our forge.

The link takes you to their repos. The server repo has instructions on self-hosting directly on your server or with Docker. The app repo has code for both the iOS and Android apps. That’s good, because the iOS app at least doesn’t have a built-in way to select a different backend server.

Whisper is by OpenAI and as far as I know they have not shared the training code, much less the data sets, so the best you can do is fine-tune the models they’ve provided.

If use of Whisper is a problem, but the project is otherwise interesting to you, you could ask them to consider using a different STT solution (or allowing the user to choose between different options). I’m not aware of any fully open STT applications that are considered to be as capable as Whisper, but if you do, that would be great info to share with them.

The rules text says it creates an area of darkness, and with your interpretation, it doesn’t, which means your interpretation is wrong. Yes, the ability could be written more clearly, but the logic for a reasonable way for it to function follows pretty cleanly. Your interpretation is not RAW or RAI.

There’s a reply on RPG StackExchange that covers a similar line of logic to what I wrote above.

Remember that Fifth Edition D&D is intentionally not written with the same exacting precision as games like M:tG. The game doesn’t have an explicit definition of magical darkness, but it’s pretty clear that the intent is for magical to trump mundane (when it comes to sources of light and darkness). Even the Specific Beats General section says that most of the exceptions to general rules are due to magic.

If you have normal darkness everywhere, there isn’t a reason to use it, but you don’t always have darkness everywhere. In fact, you generally don’t.

Not all monsters with darkvision have access to light sources. Even if they do, they may need an action to use it or may be out of range. A torch or the light cantrip only has a 40’ range. If you collaborate on positioning with the caster, you can basically set yourself up to have advantage every turn thanks to the darkness, since as a ranged attacker you don’t have to stay within 40’ of your enemies.

Also, Gloom Stalkers can’t see through Darkness like Warlocks can, so this effect is useful to them in a way that the Darkness spell isn’t.

That all said, Tricksy wouldn’t do anything if it didn’t block nonmagical illumination, so it’s reasonable to run it as though it does. Sure, it still wouldn’t block even a cantrip, but it would block torches, lanterns, the sun, etc…

And running it as though it doesn’t block nonmagical darkness results in nonsensical behavior. You’re in a torchlit chamber and use the ability - now there’s a cube of darkness, blocking the light of all four nonmagical torches. If you move one of those torches away and back, why would it suddenly pierce the magical darkness? If it wouldn’t, why would a new nonmagical light source?

Maybe they just wanted to improve it for Gloom Stalker Rangers?

Do you only experience the 5-10 second buffering issue on mobile? If not, then you might be able to fix the issue by tuning your NextCloud instance - upping the memory limit, disabling debug mode and dropping log level back to warn if you ever changed it, enabling memory caching, etc…

Check out https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/latest/admin_manual/installation/server_tuning.html and https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/latest/admin_manual/installation/php_configuration.html#ini-values for docs on the above.

Up until a year ago, the README explicitly said they didn’t claim to be an open source project: https://github.com/jgraph/drawio/commit/8906f90ac0cc50a0c6da77c28cf9b2b2339277b1#diff-b335630551682c19a781afebcf4d07bf978fb1f8ac04c6bf87428ed5106870f5L10

For starters, it was never “open source”…

From your link:

Instead, as Winamp CEO Alexandre Saboundjian said, “Winamp will remain the owner of the software and will decide on the innovations made in the official version.” The sort-of open-source version is going by the name FreeLLama.

While Winamp hasn’t said yet what license it will use for this forthcoming version, it cannot be open source with that level of corporate control.

If I upload the source code for my project on Github/Forgejo/Gitlab/Gitea and license it under and open source license, allowing you to fork it and do whatever you want (so long as you follow the terms of my copyleft license), and I diligently ensure that code is uploaded to my repository before being deployed, but I ignore all issues, feature requests, PRs, etc., is my project open source?

Yes.

Likewise, if Winamp had been licensed under an open source license, it would have been open source, regardless of how much control they kept over the official distribution.

Winamp wasn’t open source because its license, the WCL, wasn’t open source.

Do you memorize all of your passwords? If so, I take that to mean that you don’t use a password manager. Password managers - really, any app with 2FA - have this problem, too. But if you use a password manager and store your 2FA methods in it, then you only need to be able to regain access to your password manager.

If you use a cross-platform password manager with Passkey support, like Bitwarden, you can use it on any of your devices. In the event that you lose all of your devices, if you don’t have an Emergency Contact set up, you will need your password and one of the following to gain access to your account:

• Access to your 2FA method
• Access to your Recovery Code
• If you’re in an enterprise using Duo 2FA, access to a Duo bypass code (contact your Duo admin to request this)

If you use security keys for 2FA, then you should have at least two - one that you keep with you and a backup that you keep in a safe place, like at home in a lockbox.

If you use a TOTP app to log in, or if you use security keys and want another backup, then making sure you’ll have access to the Recovery Code should be your priority. You can write it down and keep it in a few different places - at home, in your car, in your locker at work, etc… You can share it with someone you trust in person or over an encrypted channel (like Signal). You can store it on a flash drive, encrypted by a second password (which can be much easier than your primary password) or even unencrypted, if you generally keep the drive somewhere safe, disconnected from your computer. As long as you remember your password and can access your recovery code, you’ll also be able to regain access to your account, including all of your passkeys.

Emergency Access requires someone else to have access to their Bitwarden account, but assuming you don’t both lose access, it’s a pretty solid solution. When they request access, Bitwarden will send you an email allowing you to accept or reject their request. If you accept or don’t respond within the allotted “Wait Time” (which you configure: 1 day minimum, 90 days maximum) then they’ll be granted access. You also get a choice (when setting this up) to let them takeover the account (resetting your master password) or to just get read-only access.

Maybe you don’t like Bitwarden and want to use some other app, like 1Password, Dashlane, Roboforms, etc… Whatever your choice, familiarize yourself with how to restore access to your account in an emergency. Then you only need to worry about that and not about how to get access to your passkeys that are on your Windows laptop or only synced to your Apple devices.

But that is exactly what he recommends, using a password manager - with one time email authentication for the first login as an extra step, right?

Nope.

Using a cross-platform password manager with synced passkeys is different and much more secure than using a password manager with email TOTPs or sign-in links with emails that aren’t end-to-end encrypted.

And password manager adoption is much higher than PGP keyserver adoption, and if you can’t discover someone’s public key you can’t use it to encrypt a message to them, so sending end-to-end encrypted emails with TOTPs/sign-on links isn’t a practical option.

According to Statista, 34% of Americans used password managers in 2023 (a huge increase from 21% in 2022), so it’s not even like the best case scenario is rare.

The author mentions it: the QR code approach for cross device sign in. I don’t think it’s cumbersome, i think it’s actually a great and foolproof way to sign in. I have yet to find a website which implements it though.

The site doesn’t need to implement this; the browser handles that part.

I confirmed this works and logged into Github using Google Chrome on my work computer using a passkey stored in Bitwarden earlier today. I had to enable Bluetooth for Chrome, since I’d had it disabled, but then everything else was seamless.

You could’ve scrolled down to the bottom, clicked on “Links,” then clicked on the repo link

The repo has instructions to install a Snap or build from source. If you build from source, it looks like you should download an archive from the releases page rather than just pulling from master.
