I run also, and trust me try wireless, such a better experience without the entangling cables. Specially for sport.

All my micro-usb phones have the port mangled or damaged over time. I had even to replace one, once.

All my usb-c phones have had zero issues with the port itself. And that's as well true for my kids. Once they managed to break a micro USB but they never even had a single issues in USBC.

They stand much better the forced insertion/unplugging in my experience. yMMv.

I consider myself an old fart, but you need to get out and do more experiences yourself.

Wireless Bluetooth headsets have been pretty nice for years. Don't go too cheap (but even cheap ones can be good) but don't waste too much money either on them and you will be fine.

Pairing today is smooth and easy, never had an issue in the last 5 years at very least. Battery life is pretty good, my tw buds get a week worth of charge at my usage (and I use them for daily sport training, calls and occasional video). They get charged automatically when I put them back in the box and the box itself recharge in like 30 minutes.

And you can use them one at a time, which is good to get truly unlimited "call time". .moreover, my model can both do noise cancelation or environment sound pass-trough which is amazingly good when running on asphalt (the latter) and trying to isolate in the office (the former).

Moreover having no chord dangling getting pulled and catching around is unreliable better experience.

I had to go back to wired a few times (forgot the wireless home..) And found how much worse experience that is.

Of course, I prefer the choice and I have always purchased a phone with audio jack and will do again if at the same price/hardware level.

I got a mildly expensive pair (100€) and are rock solid since I guess 2018 or 2019. Batteries still last as much as needed, and they never failed me. Battery last days with my usage and in any case, just recharge one while using the other. I use them for phone calls mostly, or movies, and lots of music while I run.

I also have a cheapo pair (30€) which still work from 2015/0216 but I didn't used them much since 2019, so...

Still on 3.5mm Jack. I have a poco x3 NFC. And would buy again a phone with a jack but...

No i don't use it much, maybe once in a while when I need headphones while my BT tw are charging or I forgot them home.

To be honest wired headphones are unpractical and messy and I always tend to tear them out of my hears. Usually only use them at my desk with my laptop while phone on bt headset.

So to be honest, jack is something I could do without but that would still be an inconvenience for the limited cases I would need.

So probably I would buy a phone without one... Granted I would always prefer one with the jack at same price/hardware point.

I am using markor on android and silverbullet (web) on anything else.

Joplin was OK, but the android editor felt sluggish and the only available web GUI was... Meh. And I still had to use WebDAV to sync. And I lost all my data once due to how Joplin "think" sync should be done.

Now using syncthing with markor&silverbullet. Nice combo, and I can still access all my notes over WebDAV anyway.

Just learned about its existence from your link... Its referred there.

Red is my power consumption and blue production. My solar is currently capped at my production because I cannot resell and I have no batteries.

Don't have batteries and cannot resell yet (paperwork submitted and waiting) so production is restrained to autoconsume....

But 640kw in 73 dsys here... (6kw rooftop, but mixed rainy weather)

Why not agenDav?

That's the point: that is not markdown file. Most of the text is markdown, but try editing it with a different editor ...

Try back and forth between md editors...

You end up with a mess. I want md for interoperability, and this is not good.

Running radicale on mydomain.blah/radicale just fine since day 0....

Interesting but seems way overkill....

Nope, Joplin saves as .md files but those are clearly NOT markdown. I switched after I got burned.

That's another good reason to use podman, rules are on nft and separated from your rules.

I used nextcloud for many years. I failed to see significant improvements overall and it has always been slow and clunky.

I have replaced with radicale, a WebDAV server, syncthing and little more.

Over the years I tried lots of plugins and never settled with any, always too barebone or mild.

Still an amazing tool, if it fits your use case.

Please refrain from posting without explaining. That's reddit style and its considered rude here.

Yeah, you know there are only 10 types of people in the world: those who can count in binary and the others...

I go to my disks and count my bits every morning, the total is always there, never lost one!

Been on USB enclosures using Linux software raid for 20 years and never lost a bit so far.

Didn't go cheap with USB jbod, and i have no idea if zfs is more sensitive to USB... But I don't use zfs either so don't know.

But again I have been using two jbods over USB:

• 4 SSDS split on two RAID1s on USB3
• 2 HDDs on RAID1 on USBC

All three raid are managed by Linux software raid stack.

The original one I think I started in the 2000's, then upgraded disks many times and slowly moving to ssds to lower heat production and power usage.

Keep them COOL that's important.
