FluxTube | Flutter/Dart YouTube Client! | This could be the new Newpipe
  • Eh I self-host and that works just fine, I haven't noticed any breakage.

  • FluxTube | Flutter/Dart YouTube Client! | This could be the new Newpipe
  • Why do we need a new Newpipe? There is also LibreTube already which imo is already better than NewPipe as it for example has sponserblock built-in (which NewPipe refused to add).

  • help on setting up home lab (networking)
  • I personally rent the cheapest VPS I could find and put Tailscale on it. My server at home then connects to that Tailscale network and the VPS runs nginx acting as a proxy forwarding everything to the server through Tailscale.

    Besides having no annoying networking issues it also has the benefit that I can move houses without having to update A records to have the domain point to the new IP address because the VPS IP ofc remains the same.

  • Porting systemd to musl libc-powered Linux
  • The reasons for choosing Musl over glibc are largely unrelated for choosing a service manager. You can want one without the other just fine.

  • Porting systemd to musl libc-powered Linux
  • In general (there are exceptions) containers do not use service managers at all. They start 1 command and that's it.

  • What kind of messaging apps do you use?
  • Email, Matrix (also with friends and family) and sadly also still WhatsApp...

  • Rust in Linux lead retires rather than deal with more “nontechnical nonsense”
  • I mean, it is. RedoxOS is just that. But it's not Linux and that means a lot of things.

  • has anybody fully abandoned Android, for anything other than iOS?
  • It's not like Wine at all actually. Waydroid is Android in a container with some software to make it integrate somewhat. Wine is actually a Unix implementation of the Windows APIs. Android translation layer is more like Wine and I have higher hopes for it.

  • has anybody fully abandoned Android, for anything other than iOS?
  • Some people in the Linux mobile community have yes, but only a few really.

  • So I installed Arch Linux... Is this it?
  • I ran transmission and WireGuard for ages before I recently switched my server over to x86, worked fine?

    Idk about Sdkman though, I don't do Java development, but if it's written in Java itself I fail to understand why it wouldn't work 🤔

  • So I installed Arch Linux... Is this it?
  • Alpine Linux: uses musl and busybox by default. Extremely lightweight. Some things will not work

    I use it daily, which things won't work? Honestly it's "just a distribution", you'll have the same experience with it as OP has with Arch.

  • What is happening in Norway, and how do we spread it?
  • You can't seriously call them "countries in North America" though, that's just ridiculous.

  • What is happening in Norway, and how do we spread it?
  • Did you seriously just name Denmark a country in North America?!

  • What is something you want to use, yet are NOT using?
  • Alpine Linux has no default DE, I'm not sure what you're talking about. It's up to the user to install a DE.

  • What is something you want to use, yet are NOT using?
  • Immutable distro. I love the concept but don't want to move away from Alpine Linux...

  • What life hack is so simple yet so effective, you're shocked more people don't know about it?
  • This seems like an American problem. This used to be the case in the Netherlands as well but over the years people have learned that SIM-only subscriptions are so much easier and cheaper that the majority of people now use SIM-only. In fact I know of no one around me that does it differently.

    Also $45 per month is still expensive lol. I pay €12 a month. Sure, not unlimited but I never call or SMS so the 100 a month I get for that is way more than enough and I never finish the 10GB of data a month either. I can make either unlimited for really not that much more.

  • I feel sorry for the orcas.
  • Oh my god, that parking lot is 2 times the size of the actual park itself. How can anyone look at that and think "yes, this is good"?
