Without knowing what you are working on in Visual Studio, I would suggest checking out Jetbrains IDEs. I’ve used Rider for .NET quite successfully, and most of their other IDEs. I havent spent nearly as much time with CLion, but its supposed to be good. I haven’t used VS since like 2015, so I really don’t know how they compare these days. But I also haven’t missed it.

IronFox is really good on mobile.

How about Delta Chat? At least as secure as Signal, open source, and decentralized.

I mean, self hosting is basically gardening for computers.

Looks neat, but Navidrome+Tempo have been working great for me.

I recently setup Music Assistant and have been trying to make it work in my VLANs with my esp32 devices. It has been slow going. Nothing has the level of logging required to easily debug the issues I’ve encountered but I’m slowly working through it all.

How’s your experience with meshtastic been? I’ve just started experimenting with it. There are very few nodes in my area, so my potential use cases seem limited.

Homepage is great, especially if the services are deployed on docker or Kubernetes. You can just add some metadata to each service and Homepage will automatically pick them up. No need to remember to update it directly for a new service.

I got a Venstar T2000. Its at a decent price point, HAOS has built in support for it, and it can work entirely without internet.

An easy option is VaultWarden. Pretty painless to host AND it’ll store your passwords. There are probably better dedicated tools, but it’s functionality is pretty solid.

I haven’t used it, but agendav - https://github.com/agendav/agendav looks like it might be what you’re looking for. There are similar projects for iCal format, which many calendar apps can emit as well.

I’ve been using it on my gaming rig/dev workstation for nearly a year and its been great. Games work great. I had some issues with printer drivers, and with some dev tools. I hadn’t used a fedora-based system in years so many of my issues likely stemmed from that. Editors seem to be confused by the home symlink, especially IntelliJ et al.

Overall I’d highly recommend it. Someone mentioned slow boot, but that hasn’t been my experience. It boots within a few seconds.

The answer is still yes. Your posts go out to the fediverse and comments come in from the fediverse.

Fcast seems pretty promising but it looks like it’s only implemented in Grayjay thus far.

I’ve got a handful of Android-based TVs that I’m becoming increasingly irritated with. Google regularly pushes updates that break stuff. I already have Jellyfin and Navidrome running on my network and can play them on the TV without issue. Netflix et al are also no issue, but being able to stream other sources such as YouTube/NewPipe.

I am not a fan of Apple either, so adding to them to the mix is a nonstarter.

This looks exactly like what I’m looking for!

Oh that isn’t quite what I was looking for but I’ve got Home Assistant and Jellyfin already. I’ll have to play with this! Thanks!

Pretty sure Immich allows you to act on existing directory structures of images now. The database itself is hardly an issue there.

It’s the THIRDREALITY Motion Sensor https://a.co/d/giK2dvw. It’s worked really well so far.

Neat. I did something similar but simpler. I put a cheap zigbee motion detector in the mailbox and hooked it to a routine to toggle a flag and trigger a notification. Yours sounds like more fun though.
