My most used:

• self hosted Matrix server with Element client
• Jellyfin server and clients
• self hosted Radicale server for my family calendars
• self hosted Joplin server with the Joplin app on all my machines and devices for my notes
• Navidrome
• Firefox
• tasks.org with my self hosted nextcloud
• all the fossify apps on my phone
• audiobookshelf server and client
• GNU/Linux (various distros across different machines)
• Voyager for Lemmy

There’s a bunch more that I can’t think of that I use, but the above list is the stuff I rely on and use every day.

Its also got a companion remote app for mobile devices so you may not need the air mouse

Take a look at Kodi, this may be exactly what you’re looking for

I’m glad this person likes Warp. I’m not gonna yuck their yum, but I want nothing to do with Warp.

I was reading that whole thing thinking the exact same thing. Disdain and all.

Oh! Nice! I missed the missing a. Whew.

Ugh. When did that happen? I’ve been running radicale on my server for years for my calendars. Guess I’ll have to find another caldav server.

What apps are you using?

Also using caldav and I’m missing a decent macos client and/or web facing client I can self host for tasks.

:shocked pikachu:

So people will get something like .25 USD?

Ah. Yeah. I think then you’ll want to look into cloudflare tunnels. I believe that should get you through the cgnt and deal with the dynamic IP ll in one go.

You can deal with the non-static IP by using duckdns.org

You’re welcome!!

I’m no expert so take this with an appropriately sized grain of salt.

You should be able to install KDE on whatever distribution you decide. If you want KDE 6, you may have to add a repo, but it should be as simple as sudo <package manager install incantation> whatever-KDE-is-named-in-the-repo

If you want stability, Debian is the go to, but the tradeoff there is older packages. However if manjaro is working for you, don’t fix what isn’t broken. I don’t know how good Debian is for gaming, but honestly any distribution should be just fine for dev. Considering what steam has done with Arch as the base, it may be worth considering Arch as an option.

To the partitions, I’m not knowledgeable enough to make recommendations as to what you should or shouldn’t touch. My instinct is to not touch /boot/efi

Something can definitely go wrong when playing with partitions, so make that backup of everything as planned and test it before you make any changes to the system.

Super!

Fuck Amazon.

youruser:youruser just means the user’s group. For instance, on my fedora 40 install, my user (bippy, just a silly name), is the username for my user, but also the name of the group that my user belongs to.

So when I do a chown, I typically do chown -R bippy:bippy path/to/directory

If you wanted to give permissions to a different group on your system, but also to your main user, you could do a chown -R bippy:wheel /path/to/directory (wheel is an example group name, which is similar to sudoers)

It’s not that Linux can’t do what you specify, but that it may not do it in the way you require, which is based on your windows experience. Lots of what you describe can be done

For example, using command line tools like sed, rename, ffmpeg, find, etc…, you can do all of the text manipulation you can imagine.

But you also specify that you want gui wrappers, and in all likelihood, there are gui wrappers for what you want to do, but to meet your exact specifications, maybe not.

If you’re willing to do some adapting, which it sounds like you are, the. I think you can pretty easily adapt to Linux, as it’s perfectly capable of handling your high level requirements. It’s in the minutiae of how those requirements are met that is in question.

Awesome!
