Thanks. I didn’t know the compliance solution from Microsoft was attached to office.

That and policy enforcement are, I think, the biggest obstacles for Linux adoption commercially.

Compliance being what is and isn’t allowed to run on a computer?

MSP?

Tell me more

You’re right. It was released almost at the same time as the 1st gen iPod touch, and that iPod ran the same OS as the iPhone (then named iPhone OS). I thought the iPod touch came before, it didn’t. The iPod classic was significantly different from the iPhone.

I remember when the iPhone came out, it was a little more than an iPod that made calls. The rest is history.

Back in the days before git, I worked on a small software+hardware startup with ~ 10 people. We used Trac very successfully to do project management. I know it’s been updated to mesh with git. You could set up roadmaps, track issues (which can be linked to code or not), tracked hours (using a plugin), and keep our internal KB in the integrated Wiki. There was a Trac Hack for everything we wanted.

I don’t recall which Gantt plugin we used, but there’s a few options: https://trac-hacks.org/tags/gantt

We didn’t use kanban back then, again, options: https://trac-hacks.org/tags/kanban

Appwrite and Supabase are both very promising open source “serverless” solutions.

The thing is that even quite old Intel CPUs have good transcoding support with Jellyfin. For people buying used desktops is great. AMDs are a more recent development. Since you’re building everything brand new, take your pick. With AMD you could run some light ROCm workloads.

And chat. But yeah, no groupware.

I have an always-on 2020-ish corporate desktop with TrueNAS. When idling, that thing is silent. I have to look at LEDs to make sure it’s running.

My little dumpster dive NAS made of second hand second rate hardware cab withstand power losses without hitch. You don’t need a UPS.

I’d hit TrueNAS forums with that. They should be able to help you diagnose what’s up. TrueNAS is pretty reliable, I haven’t heard of anything like that happening before.

Yup. Seems like just mismatched expectations from OP. I hope to see news from the project, there are a lot of interesting concepts.

I think Activity Pub has a clear leg up in that you can be as decentralized as you’re comfortable.

Want to go full one-person instance? You got it. Want to host for your friends and family? Covered. Want to host for the general public? Can do. Don’t want to host at all? Pick your open instance and join the fun.

There’s also Incus, but if you’ll be using your TrueNAS box to host the containers, I suggest you stick to Docker as it’s the default. If you’re building a second container box, Proxmox, Docker, Podman, and Incus are your best bets. Choose what fits your expertise and needs best.

I’ve heard good things about Incus, otherwise Proxmox is the default these days.

Thanks! Was it always not federated? I thought it was, in is halcyon days. Might be just my faulty memory though.

I was just confirming. It seemed to me that use had tapered off completely. Glad to know that’s not the case. In a way, Lemmy is essentially a reimplementation of Usenet. Decentralized, federated forums.

What server do you use?

And we went back to it being used as forums?
