Great list! If you already have the Raspberry Pi devices, great. If you were going to buy some, I would look at thin clients instead. Low-power, cheaper, more powerful, can use real hard drives instead of SD cards or adapters, and x86 instead of ARM. I have an HP T630 I like but I hear good things about the Dell Wyse 5070 too.

Agreed. Also, censoring is a lot of work! Sure, some stuff is extreme such as racism, sexism, etc. that most reasonable people would agree should be censored. But where do you draw the line? Choosing to censor means defining what is allowable and someone will always disagree with where the line is drawn. I sympathize with community moderators (or lack thereof).

For me at least, choosing not to censor and endorsing something are completely separate.

I really like Vikunja and use it individually both personally and professionally. It meets all of your criteria except tracking hours. They have a nice demo too: https://try.vikunja.io/.

I was going to say that Finamp doesn't support offline filtering by artists, but when looking for the open issue I just found out the beta does support this! Awesome!

I mostly agree with this. If you're asking for help on an Arch forum, I think it's fair to expect you know how your system is installed and configured. However, we know many use EndeavourOS (or Archinstall) to avoid having to configure their system. Forums provide free support; I think it's fair they get a say in what issues they don't want to deal with.

I love XCOM and have tried a few of those games. Into the Breach is one of my all-time favorites. It captures the thoughtful, turn-based decision-making of XCOM but admittedly lacks the base building, graphics, and most of the leveling up, to name a few things.

Agreed, switch the applications first. I like using https://alternativeto.net/ to find replacements.

As others have said, Nextcloud for files/calendar and Tailscale for VPN is your answer.

Nextcloud can be installed in several ways, one of which is Docker Compose. Docker Compose is flexible but requires learning a bit, although you can use it for most self-hosted software.

I agree with this, the issue may be the packages installed rather than the distro. For a more reliable experience, I like to:

  • Use Flatpak instead of the AUR where possible
  • Use built-in filesystems and avoid DKMS

I have a T630 as well. It's currently running 26 Docker containers without issue. I love it.

I can share the script on GitHub if anyone is interested. Among other things, it converts funds to their value at the time of the transaction and adds additional transactions to reflect capital gains and losses. This allows Metabase to accurately report net worth over time.

Docker + Caddy (for reverse proxy) fits most use cases IMO. I really like this person's approach: https://github.com/DoTheEvo/selfhosted-apps-docker. They use Docker networks to avoid unnecessary port mapping - it's a very clean method.
