  • Very interesting! What is your view on it? Do they use a stock android, or do they heavily modify or cram it with bloat ware? For the first time I would consider buying an Asus phone, as it is really the last compact phone with flagship features.

    I wish they would also make a premium 8 inch tablet, as it is a low quality mediatek graveyard for the moment

    I did the other way round. An old nuc from 2013 turned into a gui-less debian selfhosted server (yunohost) for 2.5 years, until my old laptop (2008) died. Then I installed xfce on top, plugged a wireless keyboard/touchpad combo + hdmi to my TV, and use it as a desktop mainly for web browsing, open office and some gimp processing. But just once a week or so.









  • I went from Nexus 5 to Samsung s7 and now s10 which is so smooth in hand. I was thinking of upgrading to s23 but it looks like an iPhone 5, edges are so sharp that I’ll pass. Eyeing on the pixel 8 now. It will be a big upgrade for me anyway so not bothered about the pro having higher specs. I simply can’t handle (literally) phones bigger than that, and actually can’t be bothered by the latest AI gimmicks. I would in fact deactivate stuff that would need to connect to a server to improve the pictures or videos I take.


  • I’ve used Yunohost for two years and a half, it is good for me to step up my Linux / cli game while enjoying a fully featured and functional solution. I played a bit with Linux at work decades ago but couldn’t have found the time back then to dig into selfhosting from scratch. It is still a good solution for me, I am also looking at Runtipi for the next setup, that I will install at a family member’s house, mostly for mutual backups. All I read however points to the fact that debian + docker is not far out of my reach. Runtipi seems like a middle step
