Which OS do you use for your homeserver?

Jump

  • On what hardware do you run 9front?

    Jump

  • slackware, freebsd, netbsd

    • TIL about SearXNG -- search like the old days where you get relevant results instead of a page half full of weird nonsense

    Jump

  • I'm running it on my laptop, has skylake i5 ulv with 8 gigs of ddr3 and a tlc micron ssd with slackware linux installed (no docker, manual server config).

  • Mine is selfhosted as well. I enabled many engines (Google, Bing, DDG, Yahoo, Naver, Qwant, Brave, a few more) and a single search query takes about 8 to 10 seconds. I have pretty fast internet connection, it would be great if I can make it faster lol. I'm using DDG when I need a quick search due to that.

  • The only con is that its super slow with many engines enabled..

    • The must-have extension for a mouse-free Firefox experience

    Jump

  • I find vi-like bindings much easier though. Personally using VimFx but I can't really recommend it as it disables browser sandbox to work.

    • What tool do you use to save articles to read later?

    Jump

  • I just press C-d and create a bookmark.

  • I also run a personal wiki, but instead of MediaWiki I chose DokuWiki as it's much lighter and uses plaintext instead of databases for storing information. It fits me well and there are plenty of plugins as well.

    • is archive.ph/.is sad or is some content taken down?

    Jump

  • Very weird, it's blank for me on Firefox ESR 115 (Desktop).

    • Not even Notepad is safe from Microsoft’s big AI push in Windows

    Jump

  • Users can just use W10 LTSC IOT until 2032 and switch to Linux or ReactOS by then lol.. This thing just isn't worth using

    • In search for free domain I got one but some questions

    Jump

  • Not sure which ports are required for your usage but maybe cloudflared would work? It works on the free tier as well, you can install cloudflared on your linux/windows server (no BSD support afaik).

    Freenom's domains are pretty unstable, they lost management for .ga domains last year and they often claim others' free domain when they have high usage.

    though if you have unstable network I won't suggest self hosting fediverse stuff.

    • How good privacy would a Lenovo laptop running Linux be?

    Jump

  • Would be OK except for Intel ME/AMD PSP I believe. An older Thinkpad with coreboot would be the best privacy wise.

    • How do i check if a crack is safe or not?

    Jump

  • Back when I used cracks often the cracks were small keygens and sometimes a patched main exe/dll, so I could just generate the key in a vm/sandboxed environment and inspect the patched binary, usually they did nothing weird. Huge repacks are often very sketchy though.. Nowadays there are many great FOSS alternatives so I tend to use them more.

    • I had no idea that you could download movies from the 90ies from archive.org

    Jump

  • Damn its gone now.. I really think we need to backup IA. Contents frequently disappear because of copyrights..

    • Textise - removes everything from a webpage except its text (and links)

    Jump

  • I like it, but I would prefer a local program to do this, or something like a userscript... ik firefox readermode does this but i use seamonkey and don't have this kind of thing, so I only disable image and javascript (css when needed) which kinda gives me a broken layout

    • What is the device you want, but that does not exist?

    Jump

  • Those tend to add weird noise to the sound though..

    • What is the device you want, but that does not exist?

    Jump

  • The PinePhone is a bit similar, a hackable linux phone but it appears to be much less daily usable and doesn't have the awesome slider keyboard..

    Jump

  • Maybe a Palm Pilot would do :p

    • What's the most private way to create & use Instagram?

    Jump

  • instagram aggressively bans all third party clients, so barinsta (android) and bibilogram (web frontend) has all stopped development.

    Jump

  • sadly barinsta development stalled over a year ago and in my case I get banned every time I use the app and need to do weird captchas on the official site.
