Nextcloud appreciation post

After months of waiting, I finally got myself an instance with Libre Cloud. I was expecting basic file storage with a few goodies but boy, this is soooo much more. I am amaze by how complete this is!!! Apps let me configure my instance to fit everything I need, my workflow is now crazy fast and I can finally say goodbye to...

docker-compose up -d

Oof what a pain this was! Glad it finally works and I can move on with my life!!

Looking for Cloud Storage Replacement, but I don't like NextCloud

I'm looking for something to replace cloud storage for myself and family. I've tried to use/like NextCloud but honestly I despise it. The UI/UX really bothers me, and administering it is a pain. It also just does way more that I want or need....

Interesting! What's better about owncloud?

Would buy an AMD based T14s or T14 but they removed the rj45 connector from them and I won't pay that money for a childrens toy. For some reason, some intel models still have it. Why??

Is osmand normally terrible?

I just tried osmand. It took forever to locate me and then the map would freeze for minutes, then the blue arrow would finally jump to my location. It seems useless for real time navigation, is that normal? Google maps works fine on the phone (Android) so it's not the hardware. Is there maybe some setting I haven't found?...

Afaik there are two location permission levels in android, one that only allows GPS which is often really slow and inaccurare and one that uses cell and wifi as well which is quick and accurate. Maybe OsmAND is not allowes to use the accurate location on your phone?

I'm on lineage microG and I've got the opposite experience! Some apps really struggle with getting my location while OsmAND always works like a charm. I also use organic maps for quick routing, because the map rendering is MUCH faster and it consumes less battery power.

I recently tried selfhosted grocy. It's really amazing, but in the end does seem over the top for us, so we went back to intuition and communication based "household management" ;)

Debian (testing branch): Add normal firefox to the repo. Firefox ESR is total bullshit that makes zero sense to use. I always install it either as flatpak or from the unstable repos using apt-pinning (which works great though!)

It's not a rolling release though, right? I mean mint is nice, but I am absolutely pleased with my experience using debian testing as daily driver for years while it just stays perfectly up to date and never breaks (as opposed to arch or even manjaro).

"improvement" lol xD

I hate that BS with a passion. Never find anything I need and always spend way more clicks than needed for simple tasks.

I love it and use it all the time, especially calc. But one thing I'd really like to see is a fix for the fact that the icons up top look absolutely horrendous on high DPI screens, no matte the icon theme used (svg or not).

The "journalism" about israel/gaza here in germany is a complete shame across the board. German media, even (or especially) the publicly funded media, literally try to hide the discussions that the rest of the world is having about this war. Things like these: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/12/10/world/middleeast/israel-qatar-money-prop-up-hamas.html

And of course they are failing. Also, whenever something happens that they can't ignore, they use euphemisms to describe war crimes of the israli side instead of just stating the facts. Many journalists are literally scared to lose their jobs if they report to honestly about this conflict. It's insane.

"Medicare for all is unrealistic"

I guess Canada, Europe and many other developed countries probably aren't real then.
