I haven't found one that I like as much. My biggest hangup, and this is probably dumb, is the ability to edit the icons for PWAs so they don't show the stupid browser icon that screams "I'm a web shortcut!!!". I tried Hermit as a PWA/lite app replacement and Android just slaps the hermit badge on it instead. For whatever reason that annoys me enough to stick with Nova.

It's not a proper PWA, but does a decent job faking it: Hermit

I did notice some rendering issues on an app I self host. It still worked, mind you. Just didn't look correct when compared to viewing in Chrome or FF.

Ooh...this is interesting. I'm going to look into setting this up. Thanks!

This is me... In general with Linux. So I have a whole section of my Obsidian vault dedicated to troubleshooting and setup steps for my server projects. It's saved me hours of research already. Stupid brain...

My choice as well. I had some weirdness with Steam at first, but was able to get that sorted.

I just setup the remotely save plugin with my Nextcloud instance. It apparently can do version control too.

Immich and Duplicacy both run on my unraid server. Duplicacy just watches the Immich pics folder and backs that up nightly.

I went with Pop!_OS because it was one of the least Windows-like DEs. Which is what I wanted after getting so damn sick of their garbage. Kinda macOS though with the dock and all. I dig it.

This time last year I decided I wanted to selfhost services in an effort to take control of my data. Now I run Pop!_OS as my primary OS, host 13 services across 4 different servers, and am having a blast learning.

Prior to selfhostint in earnest I had a Pi-hole instance running on a Pi 3, but those are pretty hands off once it's setup.

I'd rather backup a stack of plain text files, personally. So Obsidian for me.

Great app. Switched to it earlier this year.

Yep, my bad. As I said above, I wrongly assumed everyone was American again. One of these days I'll get out of my bubble....

There I go assuming everyone is from America. Sorry about that!

Light bringer for me as well. The whole series sucked me in like no other.

Dang, that's too bad. It really is the best alternative out there.

Can't link directly to the plugin, but the github page for it is here

Acreom Not FOSS yet, but on their road map. So I'm keeping an eye on it. Still plain markdown files at its core. One deal breaker for me is that they require a login for Mobile app, at least Android. Which makes no sense to me. They advertise "local first" and "no account required" on their site, yet you can't use the mobile app without signing into their service. If they ever stop being silly about that part, I may take another look. Their task management and to-do is better than anything I've found in Obsidian to date.

No problem. If you do ever want to get it running I believe it's in the RunTipi store. That solution is similar to Yunohost in that it aims to make standing up a server with several services easy and available with a "single" click. I tried it and it's pretty neat. Only thing I didn't like is how updates to the apps themselves were handled.

The app is not. That said, since it's literally a front end for markdown files, the file format is universal and can be opened on anything with a text editor. No conversion or export needed.

I know some folks won't use it if it's not FOSS, and I respect that decision. For me there isn't an open source alternative that is as good. Joplin stores your data in an SQL file, that's a deal breaker for me. Logseq seems to be so outline/task oriented that I've not been able to use it the way I want to.

Yep, it's in the community apps store for free, though highly recommend throwing some money at the dev if you find it to be useful. I'm just barely scratching the service and it's pretty dang good.
