Distro and/or config for elderly person by hydrogen in c/[email protected]

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!

In my opinion I feel like /e/OS is too bloated and I don't like the iOS inspired theme. If you prefer stock android you should choose LineageOS. BTW there is also a fork of LineageOS called LineageOS for microG, should you need Play Services.

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

I had the same issue with my Anonaddy alias, I just made an alias using my domain name and works fine now. It's unfortunate that so many project are on shithub.

You can use Universal Android Debloater. Most apps have a description of what it does and if it's safe to remove or not. Already debloated a few Samsung phones with it, works great :)

A few months ago I bought a second hand Nvidia Shield TV (€40), flashed LineageOS on it. Very happy with the device, especially the performance.

I use Jellyfin, SmartTubeNext and some VOD TV apps from my country. I've Adguard Home on my Proxmox server (can also be a Raspberry Pi) that I use for DNS adblocking, so we can watch VOD TV without any ads. Works really well :)

We've switched to this from cable TV and my family loves it, we can watch anything we want without any ads and FREE!

Only problem (not for me) is that Netflix doesn't work on it without GAPPS.

Collabora Code server docker compose? (lemmy.ml)

Hi everyone!

I have fully setup my Nextcloud instance for a few years now together with OnlyOffice. I'm verry happy with it just that OnlyOffice can be a little slow with bigger documents.

So i'm trying to get Collabora Code Server working in docker compose together with Language Tool.

Does someone has a working docker compose file with both Code Server and language tool? I can't find any online. Thanks!

New apartment help needed (lemmy.ml)
submitted 11 months ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

Hello there!

I just bought my first apartment and I would like to make as much as possible smart and connectable to Home Assistant. I have to redo the whole apartment (electricity, walls, etc) so drilling some extra holes is not a problem ;)

I just have a few questions where I can't really find a good answer to it. I hope you guys can help me :)

First of all, I have a few criteria:

  • Everything should be local only (so no 3rd party cloud or accounts)
  • Selfhosting is possible (I have a Proxmox server running Home Assistant in a VM)
  • It doesn't have to be of the shelf hardware (DIY is fine, if it works as expected).
  • I prefer FOSS over proprietary software/hardware (I know that FOSS hardware is difficult to find). If proprietary see point 1 & 2.
  • Zigbee/Zwave > ethernet > wifi
  • Available in Europe

What I'm struggling with:

  1. Lighting: What is the best solution for smart lighting? I already have a few Philips Hue bulbs and switches, now with the account restrictions they have I was thinking of buying a Sonoff Zigbee USB dongle off AliExpress instead of using the Hue Hub. Are there any better solutions like Shelly maybe or something else? For LED Strips I was thinking of using WLED on an ESP32
  2. Smart blinds, I already found some smart blinds (Like the one from Ikea) but they all work on batteries. As I have to redo the whole apartment I would like to have something that I don't have to charge every few months.
  3. Smart plugs: Maybe any in-wall/out-wall outlet that has the capability to see electricity usage that you recommend?
  4. Audio: I would like to have some multi-room audio as I really like to listen to music. I have 4 rooms that I want to control the music in. I was thinking to buy 4 old Sonos Connect AMPs Gen 1 from eBay, than I saw that they are not compatible with streaming music from my Navidrome (subsonic server) using HA. Is this true? Also I found a promising project called Snapcast, is it good?

Sorry for the long post, thank you so much for your time! If you have some tips and tricks you want to share that will be kind of you :)
