Sounds like either a) the dehumidifier is broken or confused b) your apartment has more moisture in it than you thought or c) the moisture is being replenished from somewhere.

I stayed in a friends house a few months ago and she had 4 dehumidifiers running since she bought it. The house was built before damp proofing was a thing and set into a hill, so the place is basically one massive wick for groundwater. It will never be over for her.

It certainly is!

I’m afraid I can’t offer any recommendations but I just wanted to say how beautiful it is to think of you keeping track of each others heartbeats while you’re apart. That’s love

Check out Cherrytree. I use it for keeping track of literally everything in my life. It’s hierarchical and searchable and you can insert files as well as hyperlink to external files, URLS and other nodes internally. You can export the database in various formats and there is also the option to have it encrypted. You can theme it in the preferences to make it look nicer too (the default is a bit retro-looking). It’s free and open source and AFAIK you can open your database in other applications, so you’re not locked into it.

If you want to sync it across devices just use Syncthing or whatever file sync app you’re selfhosting.

I highly recommend it! Probably the most important application I have on my computer.

I installed Jitsi Meet on my YUNOhost server and am very impressed. It works really well and needed basically no setting up after installing.

Not sure whether it helps but after the last major update on YUNOhost it notified me of a few extra DNS entries I had to make. If I remember correctly it was under Domains, rather than Diagnosis.

I don’t like recommendation algorithms. They’re like processed food for the mind.

YUNOhost is designed for this. You can do almost everything graphically via the webadmin. Mine has been running for a couple of years and I’m very happy with it. I have email, XMPP (both of which were installed out of the box), a website, file sharing and a few other things. There are a tonne of apps available, including Fediverse instances, Nextcloud. It’s a very cool thing to have available for making self-hosting more accessible.

I second this - dedicated devices are the way. I have a Kobo for books, modern Walkman for high quality music and laptop for video.

Let me know if you want any tips setting yourself up.

I am off-grid BTW.

I think I still have some grief from all of them. I don’t see it as a bad thing though, just a measure of how much love I’ve had in my life. On a practical level, I think it can help you to see what you’ve got with the person you’re with when you can remember what it is to lose it.

I think I see grief as an aspect of love tbh. It’s painful but sweet and beautiful all the same.

Don’t forget that the president of the United States is caught up in all of this too.

Of all the things you could do with your finite existence in this world, you choose to dispute the name of an open source selfhhostable bookmarking app

🤦‍♀️

OK, does that mean it’s not possible to have a public IP using a cellular device?

Awesome, that’s very close to what I had in mind in terms of hardware.

I’d mostly like to host a lightweight website but perhaps also some communications stuff like xmpp and maybe even email.

How does that work? Thanks :)

What I’m currently missing is a simple app for keeping contacts synced between my android phone and Linux desktop.

Excited to see what you do!

Another option for some Kobos is Inkbox/QuillOS. It’s a full open source OS replacement and is very cool. It was very usable last summer when I tried it out on my Kobo Clara HD and is probably even better now.

Funny that the US has become more like Russia since Trump was elected.

I can’t comment on Stalwart but if you’re looking for something reliable and easy to install on a VPS I recommend YUNOhost, which is a FOSS server OS that has email out of the box.

Some people have to buy ebooks with DRM to support the author but like to strip it using a Calibre plugin, for various reasons.
