I no longer use Nextcloud. I use rclone with the smb remote for my NAS.
pCloud has a Linux client. Both GUI and CLI. But I personally use rclone for all cloud services. It is often even more reliable and offers better performance than official clients. It also allows managing multiple cloud services from the same place. It supports client-side encryption as well.
This is also my favorite mobile RSS app. I am currently using it with Miniflux.
I self-host Miniflux. The web client is very good on both desktop and mobile, but I prefer using it with the lire app on iOS.
I have had positive experiences with both Radicale and Baikal. I am not sure about the Home Assistant integration, but they both use CalDAV, so I would be surprised if there wasn’t a way of connecting them. iOS has native support for CalDAV, but Android needs the davx5 app (free on F-Droid).


I just run some simple services such as Audiobookshelf or Wallabag behind a reverse proxy. After reading the other comments, it does not look like there would be any benefit for my use case.


Yes, I have always used a reverse proxy which seems to eliminate the need for multiple IP addresses. It seems like having multiple IP addresses just creates additional cost and complexity, but I have seen many VPS providers offer multiple IP addresses, so I was curious if there was a use case that I was not aware of.
The Google backing. See ublock Origin for example. Google wants less effective ad blockers because ads are 90% of their business. Google removed manifest v2, which is needed for good ad blocking capabilities. Now Chromium, and any browser based on it (Edge, Brave, Vivaldi, etc.), also lose it. Some have said they will manually add it back in to their browser, but that will only be possible for so long as Google’s upstream Chromium base further diverges.
The massive market share of Chromium-based browsers also gives Google near complete control over web standards. There are many websites that use non-standard functionality that only works in Chromium and not Firefox or Safari. Developers also will not adopt new standards unless Google chooses to as well because there would not be enough users to justify it otherwise.
TLDR: Control over Chromium gives Google extremely strong influence over the web and their interests likely do not have much overlap with yours.


Correct. That is why it is often referred to as amd64.


Ente is also able to be self-hosted.


Intel is ruining Intel.


Whoever had the number before you likely gave it out to any service that asked.
Since you only use it for data, I recommend contacting your provider and asking for a different number.
openSUSE also remains one of the only distributions that have automatic Btrfs snapshots setup out of the box. I am very surprised other distributions have not done the same. Especially Fedora, since they use Btrfs already.


I use Radicale for my calendars, reminders, and contacts precisely because of how minimal it is. It has been very reliable for me and is very easy to back up and restore since it is just files.
Progressive Web App
Fedora will not get Plasma 6 until 40 releases next month in April.
No, KDE does not have their own virtualization gui. Boxes can still be used on KDE as well though. If you really want nothing to do with Gnome, then virt-manager will be your best option.
AudioBooth is a free and open source iOS app for Audiobookshelf.
