I imagine their source code is such an unmaintainable mess that it’s impossible to modernize

Can’t speak for OP but I was also attempting this and couldn’t get it working. My use case is that CF tunnels make multiple of my self hosted services available on the Internet via HTTPS and without directly exposing my home IP.

It does however mean that even when I use a service on my home network, everything is being proxied through CF which makes things much slower than they need to be 90% of the time. So my idea is to use caddy in parallel to CF and have a local DNS server point to my homelab, thereby circumventing the proxy whenever I’m on my home network.

But like I said I could not get this working just yet.

I keep hearing this from people but it runs terrible on my SD. Cannot get more than ~27 fps and it regularly dips below that.

Did you tweak the settings somehow?

I previously played it on my Xbox and had a great time. Would love to play it again on the SD eventually.

Sort of. Google and Microsoft really weren’t on good terms back then (relatively speaking). Both were competing for the mobile OS market, and Microsoft ran this whole „Don’t get Scroogled“ campaign to demote Android.

Naturally, Google did not offer any of their apps for Windows phone - i.e. no Google maps or YouTube. Microsoft then made their own YouTube client for windows phone which was an okay app. However Google wasn’t happy with this and had them take down the app and replace it with their own version instead.

The problem is that Google’s YouTube app for windows phone was so embarrassingly bad that after countless 1-star reviews they decided to pull the app from the windows phone store, effectively leaving the platform with no YouTube app at all. There was at least one third party client which was decent, but there was never another official one after that IIRC.

I was actually using my own user account instead of root, but now that you mention it… I’m not sure how that would even work so yeah that makes sense.

I did rebuild the initramfs after every change but did not manually copy the key file anywhere other than etc.

Will check out the link tomorrow. Thanks a lot for sharing!

Edit: tried again with root and it worked flawlessly :D

As mentioned in another comment I haven’t quite gotten it working but it should be possible to do this via SSH

I‘m in the process of setting up a new NAS with Debian and disk encryption, and this is exactly what I’m struggling with. I’ve tried multiple guides for Dropbear but every time I try to SSH into the server to unlock it, I get “Permission denied”.

Just wondering what’s the power consumption and how long have you had it? I just got my electricity bill after running an R720 for a year and… let’s just say it wasn’t worth the low price after all

I’ve been on NVIDIA with Wayland since June 23 (which is when I switched to Linux in general) and I am still mystified what all this fuss is about. Everything just… works? What am I missing?

They’re not in the cloud, they are on my NAS. I found that you can’t directly copy photos onto an iPhone to show up on the gallery, because there is some sort of database and file naming system. That’s why I had to go through iTunes because it would do it in just this way so that I can see all the photos in the native gallery app.

Any new photos get uploaded to my NAS automatically.

I have a Windows 11 VM which I keep around. I was forced to use it for iTunes because I needed to sync my old photos onto the phone (fortunately a one time process).

I also played around with RemoteApp because I wanted to use Visual Studio or Office on Linux through the Windows VM, but I have not managed to get it working.

I switched from Android to iPhone a month ago and the Nextcloud app can definitely access & sync all photos & videos just fine.

So far I have not noticed any problems with background sync but I do also open the Nextcloud app frequently so that might have something to do with it. I guess a workaround could be to set up a shortcut which opens Nextcloud whenever the phone is connected to a charger during the night, for example.

Lastly I just want to add that it isn’t all sunshine and rainbows on Android either. From my own experience photo sync never worked reliably on whichever phone I was using (Huawei, LG, Samsung, Google, Microsoft, …). And let’s not forget that each manufacturer is also trying to push their own gallery & backup solution to lock you in. Even worse, some manufacturers like Microsoft have this mishmash where you have OneDrive for photo sync but then also Google Photos which you can’t uninstall and keeps begging you to please back up all your stuff and then pay for more storage. It’s the same BS as Apple with their iCloud tbh.

What about OneDrive or NextCloud? They offer photo uploads

In the past I wanted to use auto unlock via TPM, however it seems quite complicated to set up and the Arch wiki advises against it anyway, so I just enter the password during boot.

The one improvement I would like to make here is to have a nicer input (visually) like Fedora but I’m not sure how this is done and how I could replicate that on Arch.

Usually if you use Do not Disturb and the same number calls you twice within 15 mins then it will still ring

ICYMI the “simple” apps were sold to some shovelware company and will require a subscription soon (or maybe they already do). So you might want to look for an alternative if that’s what you are using.

It’s on my todo list I swear

Change / coins are pretty annoying imho

Well I literally just ordered an ultrawide OLED for work, but I guess I’ll have to play some games then to protect the monitor…

I remember trying this as well but it didn’t help, and the problem also exists on Linux
