As much as possible :) It’s also the only app I really need direct access to when I unlock my phone.

Simple for me

Maybe try the Atomic version of Fedora Budgie? With my limited testing it looks like a really easy and (almost) unbreakable distro.

Otherwise uBlue has allot of images, you can make your own even.

Well, uBlue can be as light as you want it to be.

Some other projects I’m thinking of:

• VanillaOS (Debian based)
• NixOS
• Fedora CoreOS
• uCore (based on CoreOS)
• openSUSE MicroOS
• EndlessOS (Debian based)
• blendOS

Is it for a personal computer or a server?

Does it have to be Debian based? Otherwise uBlue is a great project!

It’s better than nothing, surely better than proprietary software.

I’ve used Invoice Ninja for awhile. Works great. Self hosted but not foss.

“Cloud” storage is indeed more expensive. But depending where you live, you count the electricity cost in, and you use the storage ‘only’ for backups. Maybe it makes more sense to pay for remote storage in a datacenter. Check out Hetzner Storage Box, it’s what I use.

If it’s still too expensive, maybe ask a friend or family member (maybe someone that uses your media) to setup a nas at their home for backup purpose. (I use this for my media)

Make sure you encrypt your backups if you use a remote location for your backups.

You have to decide what’s valuable for you. For me my media is, I can just download everything again, but the time I put in to have every movie the correct subtitles without ads, the correct posters, metadata etc. I value my time, I don’t want to do it again if I loose everything.

As far as I know you can’t, but what I did was to connect the drive to a PC (Windows or Linux) and make a SMB share of it. There is an app on F-Droid that can connect to SMB shares.

Take out the hard drive out of your laptop and put the drive for the server in it, install Debian using the built in monitor and keyboard of your laptop.

And recently Llama3 and Mixtral!

RSS Guard seems to have support for Google Reader API, so FreshRSS is also supported. It’s also a Qt application. You can also find other clients on the 3rd party clients page of FreshRSS

On Linux I use NewsFlash

There are a lot of different methodes you could try. I think the easiest is to connect both systems with a (mesh)VPN like Wireguard, ZeroTier or Tailscale. Then you can simply copy stuff over using rsync -a (archive mode) with a cronjob or using special tools like Borg backup, kopia, etc

n8n.io is great, but not open source.

I use deemon to download my music from Deezer (free account only supports 128kb/s, this is enough for me though).

For the music server I tried both Jellyfin with the Finamp app and Navidrome with the Tempo app on Android.

For desktop app for both I use SonixD/Feishin (crossplatform)

Both where fantastic solutions but I stuck with Navidrome as it was easier to share playlists. (As an URL for non registered users or as public playlist for all registered users)

My setup is as following: Hypervisor: Proxmox VE NAS: TrueNAS Scale (where all music is stored)

1 LXC container with Deemon installed that downloads music in mounted NFS share from TrueNAS

1 VM with Navidrome installed in Docker with the music folder mounted with NFS

You don’t have to use such a setup, you can perfectly do this on your existing PC with Windows, MacOS or Linux with DE. Or server OS like Linux with CLI, OpenMediaVault, TrueNAS Scale or unRAID

I use Deemon for automatic music downloading from Deezer (free). Then I stream my music with Navidrome and some Subsonic compatible apps for mobile. I have this setup for over 3 years now and I have 3TB of music ;)

If you just want to download the songs you need, you can use Deemix (I use this Docker image, you can just install it as an application too)

Tip: if you don’t want to setup a music server, you can use Syncthing to sync you music and playlists between devices :)
