Nice guide. For some reason I got used to screen and use that instead of tmux. I keep meaning to try to retrain my muscle memory because everyone says tmux is better, but old habits die hard. Vidir was new to me.
Some of my friends have given their kids FitBits for similar reasons (watch + step tracking + it could be integrated with a phone if the kid has one). But I don't get the idea of an Apple Watch... I'm a small adult and…
I have several different setups. I bought a domain and pointed it to Zoho to have 'easy' email and apps. I also have a fully self-hosted mailinabox setup, and I've done things "by hand" too, just because it's fun. These…

I've started using YaCy and Searxng for searches. It was terrible at first but I set my YaCy engine off indexing high quality sites that I find useful for the subjects I'm interested in. It's refreshing in some ways -…
It asks for a phone number when you sign up, but you don't have to share the phone number with people you want to add as a contact/share it in groups. For a lot of people, Telegram does a good job of being "less evil…
