if i remember correctly, i just replaced gitea with forgejo for image: in my docker-compose, and it just worked

it was a couple of versions back, so i don’t know if that still works

I’m using leng in an dedicated LXC container in Proxmox

https://github.com/cottand/leng

I’m using defaults + some local dns lookups. Works fine for my use, and lighter than pihole. No web ui

Which apps are you testing?

I set up minio s3 for testing myself, but found that most of my docker services doesn’t really support it. So I went back to good old folders

I use nforwardauth . It is simple, but only supports username/password

https://github.com/nosduco/nforwardauth

yes, regular markdown notes has been a good decision 😅

In the beginning, the query results were stored in the markdown files, which could be useful if reading them in another app. But now I just get the query code. I think there were reasons

I’m glad to hear things have cooled down. Does it take much effort to understand and use the templating stuff? I just remember templates got pushed to a different view, and I needed some header tags to get it working

So you like spaces or not? I never got that far with silverbullet. And I haven’t used Trillium. I loved evernote when it came out. But it made me aware of the value of maintaining my own data.

Now I try to have data in a directory structure and not in databases

I am not thinking of the most recent versions.

The query system was updated, around version 0.6 if i remember correctly. I don’t think the updates were bad, but some things broke and I am too old for “bleeding edge”. The template system was also updated at some point

I don’t have a great solution. I use syncthing to keep notes local on all devices and MarkText on desktop and Zettel Notes on android.

what i really liked about silverbullet was that it had offline support. but there were made some changes there as well along the way, and for me it became less stable after it became optional. But I haven’t actively used it for some time. I still got an instance running tho

How do you like the newer versions? I liked it in the beginning, but then there were breaking changes and new concepts and it started to feel a bit too complicated. So I am taking a break until things cool down

I use proxmox and proxmox backup server (in a vm). I reinstall them both, and re-add lxc and vm and their drives from backup. has already worked once.

important files are additionaly synced to laptop and phone using syncthing.

proxmox backups (which are encrypted) are rcloned to backblaze for offsite backup

dovecot provides a proper shared imap server. But not all email clients allow moving emails between accounts (gmail and local email server), but Thunderbird does.

I can access the emails from any client

Not sure if it fits you, but personally I have set up a self hosted dovecot instance where i have moved old gmail emails to, using thunderbird as the client.

I use syncthing to copy important files between pc, phone and proxmox server. Syncthing can be set up with version control so it keeps old versions of files.

Only the proxmox server is properly backed up though. to a proxmox backup server running in a VM on said proxmox server. the encryptred backup files are copied to backblaze using rclone

Not sure if this is what you are looking for, but it works for me.

TLDR syncthing for copies between local machines, and proxmox backup server and backblaze for proper backups

You could take a look at one of the universal blue distros next time you want to try some linux https://universal-blue.org/

I use bazzite on my gaming pc and bluefin on my laptop. It is immutable linux, but the devs made the defaults really nice (for me at least)

I use miniflux. To read the feed I use Flux News on android. I don’t read the whole feed in the reader, but open the link

I think miniflux supports downloading the source, but I had to do it manually each time when I tried

https://miniflux.app/

https://f-droid.org/packages/de.circle_dev.flux_news/

I have used them since januar 2019, and I don’t have any complaints. I have only needed to restore backups once - it worked as well as could be expected.

Any issues with backups have always been on my side

My email calendars I leave alone, but I use caldav for personal calendar and tasks.

I use radicale as caldav server, and tasks.org on android and thunderbird on computer. Tasks.org works very well

I also use silverbullet (silverbullet.md) for more complex todo lists

I use miniflux, and flux news app on android. It looks nice and works well (i posted about it some time ago https://lemmy.world/post/9574514 )

I am not missing any features, but I am not doing anything fancy. I have grouped the rss feeds, if that counts as filtering

I have used it for a long time now, and I don’t have an urge to try and find something better, like I do for some other self hosted stuff.

I might miss your target, but have you considered tasks.org android app + caldav?

I have been using silverbullet the last few months, but I struggle keeping up with its updates (too bleeding edge at the moment). I has a lot of nice features like all markdown, queries and templates.

Now I am back to tasks.org app + radicale self-hosted caldav server. For tasks it flows so well on android. for windows you need to use something that supports caldav, like thunderbird.

When silverbullet matures and if it is still fast and offline, I might go back. It has a lot of nice stuff going on. I still use for stuff like recipes and travel lists

I used it for a few years, but it broke a few times, and I had to search online and find an occ command to fix it. It also could break if you didn’t upgrade regularly and skipped versions. Or you upgraded too quickly before a bug was hotfixed.

Maybe it is better now, but I looked into alternatives and found syncthing to be awesome (after I switched from iphone to android). I use samba share for cold storage. Syncthing can take a lot of space since it syncs all the files to all units

I ended up with syncthing + the default gallery app on my samsung galaxy phone. It works well for me.

But I don’t have a crazy amount of images, the phone storage needs to be large enough.

Yes, I have used it for many months. It has been the best solution for my use case for a while. Which is tasks, shopping, planning (trips, …), recipes, and a simple knowledgebase. It was the offline support that set it apart from some other solutions

I have the files in a syncthing folder, so I can access the files without running silverbullet

My biggest problem is keeping up with all the changes. Zef made some youtube videos that are helpful
