I self-identify as an nblob, a non-binary little object.
I’ve tried nearly every selfhosted dashboard out there and in the end settled for static html/css/js. If you want to access links quickly by typing abbreviations then use something like https://github.com/Ozencb/tilde-enhanced. A lot lighter and can be used with an existing webserver too.

Set tailscale to use your dns server to resolve your services (or all traffic if you prefer). Assuming your dns server is on 100.x.x.1:53, then put 100.x.x.1 as a nameserver.
How about Uptime Kuma status pages? They’re separate from the admin page and you can add Docker containers as monitors.
SFTPGo supports OIDC and has a lot of ACL features. It allows users to have their own folders, as well as shared volumes between a group.
I managed to, through Lutris, with an old cracked version. Although I had to use winetricks to install a bunch of extensions.
I got ads removed on mine by asking chat support. The only caveat is it needs to be registered to an account. If you get a patient employee and ask kindly that the ads are not appropriate for children, it usually works.
I didn’t have ads either but being able to use KoReader is a good enough motivation for me.
Overall there are a lot of steps to it, if you’re comfortable with your current setup it’s not worth the hassle/time.
Anna’s Archive, Libgen, Mobilism, IRC (I use a self-hosted service called OpenBooks for this). I use Calibre for metadata sorting, plug Kindle in and move books that way and keep it on airplane mode.
Also, new Kindle jailbreak for <= 5.16.2.1.1 if anyone’s interested. Managed to get KoReader on my 10th Gen Basic.
Not at the moment, no. But it’s worth it for the range of things you find on there.
This might be an issue with opensearch.xml, which is a standard for how browsers recognise search engines.
See here:
https://github.com/hnhx/librex/blob/main/opensearch.xml.example
I don’t know how you’re hosting it, but when I was hosting LibreX, I had to make an opensearch.xml with the correct domain and bind mount it to the correct location. I don’t exactly remember the details since I moved to Searxng.
Also, if you’re not aware, LibreX was forked to LibreY, which is the updated repo.
Navidrome replaced Spotify for me, with Symfonium on Android, I’m never going back. On PC you can use any Subsonic client, and there are plenty I threw Tailscale on top to access it when I go out.
Org-mode, with Orgzly on Android, sync via a WebDav server, which you can also mount on you PC and literally use any editor to edit.
Okay I think I might know what you mean? I just tried doing that and got it to work. We can compare what we did. Here’s mine.
I created a shared folder called “Shared”
then I create a group called “All” and mount the “Shared” folder to /shared
I went to a user and add them to group “All”
Examining that user’s files
I can navigate into that shared folder and access everything (I have stuff in there already).
To set up the folder, which I called “shared”, I set the home directory for it to /srv/sftpgo/data/shared. For reference, my user home directory is /srv/sftpgo/data/user1. Then to allow user1 to access it, I mount it as a virtual folder. Is this what you did?
Of course whatever works for you works too, we found workarounds for what we need.
Yes it’s more convenient because it’s a keybinding away. Also, on Wayland I have to use kernel modeset and it is impossible to “overclock/undervoltage” the GPU to save energy. I also get more frames on X. It’s not that KDE on Wayland is bad…it’s exactly switching to X just to do that to play games is inconvenient.
It was annoying at first for me too but they tell you how to bypass it, so can’t you just use the flag --break-system-packages and make it an alias for pip?
I’m curious what you mean by “no animations while playing games”?
I like Wayland and use it on my laptop. But I also have Nvidia on my PC and while it’s janky at places, I don’t get all the problems you describe (at least on i3 for me)
I use multiple monitors with different refresh rates and don’t really have any major issue. It syncs with the highest one. I indeed don’t use a compositor because it’s distracting and also turn off all the composition pipe line stuff. The result of turning off the latter is less latency and a teeny tiny bit of tearing in the lower 3rd when scrolling web pages but that’s it.
Games can run utilize gsync when in-game vsync is enabled so long as you disable the second monitor with xrandr.
+1 for Netdata, very fast and a lot of alerts have already been set-up. It also has a lot of plugins, as well as the ability to use Prometheus metric endpoints. The local dashboard is near parity with the cloud one, and setting it up is as easy as running their bootstrap scripts. There is decent documentation too, if one gets stuck.
Sorry, lengthy answer because difficult question.
How I stop worrying about Nvidia and deal with it
I have voiced my frustration with Nvidia elsewhere, and there are still annoying bugs, that no one can fix because it’s proprietary, but I live through it because I love everything else on Linux.
I like that using Linux makes me more careful, I learn things all the time, I stopped feeling entitled to many things. The idea of a software is changed dramatically, it’s a code as an MVP, then built up slowly based on what the dev wants, as they often use the projects they maintain themselves, or contribution and requests from their users, which is so much more sustainable than what you get in the for-profit, proprietary domain.
For this reason, I avoid negatively talking about small community-driven foss projects on the internet, because I can be actively constructive by being the change I want to see, whereas on Windows I would be stuck with a subpar product with no source code to investigate.
I think in your case, and please don’t take it personal, we don’t know each other, I don’t know what you’re going through or how you are as a person, I’m making a small judgement based on word choice here, but calling something “trash”, even after you know it’s made by someone who probably wants to use their streamdeck on Linux (just like you) is quite a hostile thing to say and will invite some hostility back. I would retract it but you do you.
Caveat Now, some foss devs are whirling shit against each other all the time on their personal blogs but that’s within their own dev-dev domain, not user-dev domain. Say hypothetically if you start contributing to streamdeck-ui and the Dev starts being an AH then you can fork it and maybe then go online and vent.
Why forums appear toxic
I can admit some forums read very blunt and impatient, like BBS Arch Forum, but they only exercise patience when it’s a big they’ve never seen before, and will ask you to paste all sorts of command outputs to troubleshoot, otherwise, they are quick to recognise if the problem have been encountered, and will typically send you to the link of the solved post or tell you to RTFM because it’s somewhere in the manual. To be frank, this behavior I can understand and have no issue with.
On more general forums like this one, it’s often the case users ask question that they can do some precursor research and once stuck (no mention of issues anywhere, no similar thread), then if they do post, I’ve only seen poor quality comments like “works for me” or “same but idk the fix”, since the commenters will have to do the same searches the poster did and come to the same conclusions (here, it’s nice to send them links you researched to save them a few clicks). I’ve made similar posts with great details on what I tried but it’s still broken. If no one knows, then I open an issue.
Now, if they didn’t do research beforehand, commenters will look it up and then have to correct you but they might feel annoyed because why didn’t you do it before posting. Not everyone will be bothered by it. But I do feel like a search or two beforehand will bring a much more fruitful discussions.
I won’t defend inflammatory toxic language, but I don’t think there are any here present in this thread, it’s just a lot of “AcKtuaLLy” comments, but those were done to correct you and if I were you I don’t think I wouldn’t really get all defensive. I pride my time using Linux, and other commenters probably do too, but we all started somewhere so we know when we see the “I didn’t do my research but gonna post anyway” attitude. If one likes doing this, just get ready for people who want to correct things, I guess.
It’s a kind of tough love here where it’s heavily encouraged that one does their own heavy lifting instead of relying on others. At least that’s what I’ve observed. It might be negative, but it’s better being spoonfed. I’ve managed to avoid such negativity by trying to exhaust all options before posting for help. I learned so much and I hope you find a way to approach Linux that works for you! There are still others out there who aren’t jaded by newbie questions and still will help, just don’t expect their language to be nurturing.
Also, please consider ignoring internet points, they do nothing but makes you feel distressed. In places like this it’s a bit like on Hacker News where it’s to show if a comment is helpful/ constructive, or not. It’s not personal.
I’ve been using Authelia with several OIDC integrations for a while now. Works great. They’ve released a huge update like a day ago too. Out of the ones you listed, it’s very lightweight too. The docs are a bit all over the place but it is quite comprehensive.
I did look at Zitadel and tried setting it up myself but I just couldn’t get it to work. The docs are a bit vague.
