I have solved that by giving the distant machine the credentials to connect to the local machine. And the distant machine can’t be accessed from the outside.

I self host mine and it works. It is quite hard to set up at first but once you have configured it correctly it is satisfying.

Run it in some place where it can easily read the logs of your apps.

If you’re privacy conscious, then UnifiedPush is a good alternative to Google’s solution for push notifications.

You can. But it will be easier if you have a static IP.

I’m not fond of what makes it easier to set up a homelab. Because it might give the impression that you can run it with very little skills. And that opens the door to making your setup a netbot.

I use Radicale as a Docker container and it runs fine, with no maintenance apart from upgrading the image once in a while.

I presume that its power consumption is not to be neglected. Do I’d just keep it off of I don’t really need it.

The sanctions aren’t sufficient. They want to show to the world that they can have their own economy crumble by consequence of their own actions.

According to the EU Digital markets act, the gatekeepers (major networks) must propose means to interoperate with the smaller networks.

I mean to favour (I don’t know how) the results expressed in the chosen tongue. Not especially translate the interface.

For very simple notes, I use Memos. It doesn’t have whistles and bells, and it works great!

Hello, do you plan to have some kind of language setting?

Install it. You’ll lose support in either way.

I recommend GrapheneOS on a 2nd hand/refurbished mobile. Most banking apps run fine (provided you installed Google Play). It is very clean and secure.

Instead of asking for a ntfy alternative, could you tell what you want to achieve? Because ntfy has several functions, primarily that of carrying notifications. And it seems that’s not what you want to achieve. Maybe you can find it here.

I must have used PayPal at most three times in the last 10 years. What is the use case making it so irreplaceable? I transfer with my bank.

Setting up an xmpp server is not a good entrypoint in the self-hosting space. It is quite hard to build. It is a complex system made of different components in order to achieve what you expect from it. I strongly recommend using existing servers. If you want to tinker, find something else (a samba share and a vpn on bare metal is a good starting point in order to learn).

I also prefer xmpp, which I find more stable and easier to set up and maintain.

I couldn’t think about leaving my personal data to the Big Tech…
