Do you need ci/cd or only git? If just git, gitea or forgejo are super simple.

If you don't need multiple users or a web ui, you could also just use ssh and store git repos on a server somewhere without extra services running:

https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-on-the-Server-Setting-Up-the-Server

I moved my unraid box into a vm on my proxmox server so that I could share the rest of the resources on the unraid server. I haven't had any issues so far and have the benefit of being able to create other vms on that server too

I'd be curious how well it works if you try it. I kind of want to, but I'm not sure how I feel about letting something unauthenticated (SearXNG) access my paperless instance with some personal docs in

I've bought a few of their yearly vps and they aren't bad. Don't seem to be oversubscribed on CPU and memory at least. Not sure on network and disk, but I haven't noticed any issues so far.

Granted it's very much in the realm of expecting to get what you pay for. I doubt they're lenient towards people abusing super cheap vms.

You could use ldap with OpenLdap, Keycloak, freeipa, etc to set ssh keys for users.

If you want something simpler, you could use Ansible (or another cm) or just have a startup script that downloads the authorized keys file from GitHub or wherever you can store it.

And if you want something less simple, hashicorp Vault supports dynamic ssh keys using certificates.

Maybe you could add it to SearXNG as it's own engine?

Have you used garagehq before? Any idea how it compares to Minio?

I haven't heard of it before, but it looks simpler than Minio for distributed storage from a quick glance.

You're being down voted, but a p2p cdn is something that sort of already exists. IPFS is probably the most mature. As far as I know, it'd only work for static content though. It's also an entirely different protocol so you'd have to use some sort of local gateway or plugin to make use of it.

I have several vms and dedicated servers that I sort of use as a DIY cdn. No where near as spread out or capable as something like cloudflare, but its also not incredibly expensive to do on a small low performance scale. DDOS mitigation is another story though, generally that is best handled by large networks that can soak up the throughput.

Transclusion is somewhat important to me so thanks for pointing out that Anytype doesn't support it. It does still look interesting though, so I'll at least try it out.

I haven't tried logseq much yet either, but it did seem more org-like than anything else which was pretty appealing to me. I was mostly just waiting to see how it matures and for it to get a good mobile app. Obsidian impressed me by supporting basically the same plugins on mobile and desktop (meaning I can use a 3rd party sync plugin on both), but there are parts I don't like about it.

SiYuan

Thanks for this recommendation, it's the first I've seen SiYuan but it looks pretty good too. I added it to my ever-growing list to try!

I don't see it on their website right now, but they offer a discount if you're using something like restic/borg and only need scp/sftp access. Their support is also super friendly. I've had an account forever and got moved to the 100+ TB pricing even though I have < 50TB stored. YMMV but it doesn't hurt to ask if they have any additional discounts.

Also keep in mind that B2 charges for bandwidth too. It's $5/TB for storage, but $10/TB to download that same data.

rsync.net is great if you need something simple and cheap. Backblaze B2 is also decent, but does have the typical download and API usage cost.

Well you convinced me to try it, and it's even free. Thanks for the recommendation!

The rest of the article reads the same. They even said what they were repeating is probably FUD and made zero effort to investigate.

It looks interesting to me, but as far as I can tell they haven't announced their monetization model yet. I don't know if they'll suddenly decide something like p2p sync is no longer free.

I plan on at least testing it out though.

How does this compare to obsidian or logseq? It looks interesting, but I'm also assuming it doesn't store data as plaintext files

You can also just add a 512 or 1tb microsd card. Surprisingly the performance of the card hasn't made a huge difference for me when playing games off of it

Do you use the nodejs server or something else to save updates? I guess tw calls them savers. I'm trying the nodejs version now and it seems alright, the auto saving is a lot faster than I was expecting

How far are you into the main games? I finished the first one not too long ago and it was a bit of a slog to get passed some of the fighting areas due to the number of enemy sponges. I'm hoping that improves in the rest of the series.

What do you mean by a workaround for Android? Do you mean to get the extension working on mobile Firefox or something else?

What're you using to sync your TiddlyWiki? From your last comment, I started playing around with tiddlywiki again and the first hurdle I ran into is how to sync it between multiple devices. https://noteself.org/ looks interesting, but doesn't seem maintained anymore.
