last year when I went back to Arch from Manjaro, I made a critical error. I’m not sure if I was just tired when partitioning things off or what. but I made my root only 20GB instead of the 50 that I had intended. I know in a lot use cases that’ll be fine, but in mine, not so much. with steam compat taking up 1-2gb and...

I’ve spent some time searching this question, but I have yet to find a satisfying answer. The majority of answers that I have seen state something along the lines of the following:...
I’ve got two services on my computer. One is for email, I want that this port to be open to the public WAN and one is for immich which hosts all my private pictures, I don’t want this port to be public but reachable on LAN. In my router I open the port for email but not for immich. Emal can communicate on LAN and WAN and immich only on LAN. On a foreign, untrusted LAN, like an airport I don’t want other people being able to sniff my immich traffic which is why I have another firewall setting for an untrusted LAN.

As part of the effort of making a “Chromebook-like” secure, autoupdating, cloud-native, “unbreakable” (but still free and privacy-friendly) Distro, I would like some of your recommendations on especially secure software, that could replace common ones like File managers, Archive Managers, PDF reader, Image viewer etc....
Afaik the problem is solved within the code. I remember having compiled the app myself. It’s just a matter of time that it’s solved.
BUT it’s weird that this is so low priority to all gnome devs. It seems like noone cares about the correct weather. The source of weather is also not really perfect.
Thinking of trying to morph my Leap workstation into Tumbleweed (and potentially Slowroll once that project matures enough). I’ve seen that you can do it . I reckon I can rollback relatively easily via the BTRFS snapshots if it goes sideways, but just curious to see what others’ experience with doing so has been.
I remember one time I installed a lot of themes for my session and I broke something and the themes changed my icon files forever and I had to reinstall Ubuntu!!...
I’ve been using gnome for the past year on my laptop and on my desktop I’ve been using kde. I haven’t used my desktop in a few months and I missed kde. I moved from silverblue to fedora kinoite on my laptop and I don’t think that it’s been two weeks but today I went back to gnome because the overview is much more polished than kde’s. It just works. Gnome always breaks extensions when they update a major version but I’ve seen so many “extensions” on kde now which are all not updated anymore and break stuff that I might actually think that gnome’s way is kind of good. Maybe it was just the fedora version which lead to so many bugs but the experience I had in the past week wasn’t so good.
I’m trying to move to podman from docker but selinux prohibits me from doing so. I can’t find a source where it’s explained how I should set it up. Thx!

I don’t care about social graph being visible so long as there isn’t identifiable info during sign up. well said
you can also look into hosted services like EMS but I don’t know if you have to provide identifiable info.
But what if matrix was self hosted on a hostile network.
it’s all encrypted on the client -> e2e. even if it was http and no SSL
Say matrix was running from a hotel WiFi.
you have to provide a domain, I’m not sure how easy it would be to run it without and only locally on a LAN. IT’s possible but the experience wont be good. you also can’t federate. It’s much easier to use a hosted server.
How would one secure the service.
the same way like you’d do it with a publicly exposed host.
BUT I think I’d go with p2p matrix before going the LAN route.
You don’t have to selfhost. You can use anyone’s server. It’s all e2e. The social graph may be visible. Selfhosting is easy. Look for an install with docker.
Musicbrainz has a lot of data. Listenbrainz has only 25k users. What’s currently popular is heavily skewed. You can’t rate music properly. The android app isn’t starting at all. No pwa support. It needs months of your data in order to generate recommendations. Favs/likes/bookmarks aren’t synced with a subsonic server. Playlists aren’t synced with the connected service. It’s just not there yet, if ever. I scrobble. I don’t know why I still do it, maybe in the hopes that one day it’ll skyrocket and become useful. One day. Maybe the financial backer is missing. Most importantly, the userbase is missing. I have contributed so many albums to musicbrainz and I could still contribute hundreds more, if not much more. I do not have the time to contribute so much stuff that I’m don’t even love that much. It’s just not important enough. It’s like openstreetmap, owners do not care about adding their own info to it. As long as it’s like that it’s unimportant and not that useful.
you scrobble with your subsonic server or client or spotify to listenbrainz.org which belongs to musicbrainz.org which is the database for music like tmdb or tvdb.
edit: no, listenbrainz is not yet as mature as trakt. considering that listenbrainz is like tmdb, there needs to be another service for music like trakt which isn’t there, there is no working service that does that.

do you have a numpad? wouldn’t that make more sense? I usually use the numpad to assign the position of a window. meta+7 is in the upper left corner, meta+6 is on the right, etc. but it would work with workspaces as well
