  • It’s still in alpha but hoarder is promising

    It’s designed to organize bookmarks, but can also support markdown notes with picture (a single picture, not multiple pictures)

    Unfortunately at the moment the mobile app is so alpha that doesn’t support creation or editing such notes, only new bookmarks or new photos.

    It uses a headless chromium to make screenshots for URLs.

    Optionally, can use a bullshit generator like ollama or openai api keys to automatically create a lot of useless tags to each note



  • What I’ve been doing:

    Easy option: because I only have around 40gb of music, I sync it between my PC and my phone using syncthing since 128gb is the minimum nowadays

    Hard option: streaming is cooler so I installed nextcloud with an optional plugin called “music” which allows to connect an app called “ultramusic” and it becomes “self hosted Spotify” with android auto support and all the bells and whistles. Disadvantage: Nextcloud is a moving target. For some reason they have to release new incompatible versions every two or three months. So for plugin developers this is a very annoying upgrade threadmill that eventually leads to burnout and that plugin dies. Even officially supported plugins sometimes don’t support the latest version when they launch it. If you choose to use nextcloud with docker, make sure to stay behind 1-2 versions (tag nextcloud:28 when nextcloud:30 is released) or your plugins might suddenly break without any warning. According to fanboys this is the industry standard nowadays and it’s up to the user to manually check the GitHub issues of each of the 30 plugins if it’s compatible before updating. Even if it’s official plugin. They call it “stable” but they mean “beta testing for the paid enterprise version”.







  • No it’s just stupidity

    The Italian government gave the keys of the internet in the hands of three copyright trolls. They have absolute power and the ISPs need to block the URLs and IP addresses forever within 30 minutes. There’s simply no time in 30 minutes for a review! Also they like to block during soccer matches and those happen during weekend, when all the sysadmins are relaxing…

    Can we realize how stupid is to block an URL and its IP address forever??? (If the block is wrong, the owner can appeal within 5 days)
