I've been using Carnet for note-taking, which is a nextcloud plugin. It has been a great replacement for Google keep, but it's really buggy. How has your experience with Nextcloud Notes been?

Hey, thank you for this, I had been wanting something along these lines. I have a personal instance, and this will let me import more communities for myself. I just tried it and it works a treat. Takes it a couple of seconds if the community is not yet in my "All" list, but it totally finds it and then I can subscribe or just let it be. Thanks!

I've definitely heard bad things about Oracle deleting people's machines without warning. Unfortunately I don't know anything about Ionos. I may go with Linode, their cheapest VPS at $5/month has a 1TB transfer limit, which I might stay under. But please let me know if you end up finding a decent option from a reliable company!

I've definitely thought about it, and I would if it were just me. I share some services with family and I don't want to be responsible for troubleshooting if they accidentally uninstall tailscale or reset their phones

For sure, I think Oracle has unlimited bandwidth even in it's free tier. Ionos is one that I was looking at, fairly cheap but also offers unlimited transfer

Thank you for explaining and for the examples, it's definitely time to start learning caddy. I liked npm for the simple gui, but security and reliability are more important

Are you sure it's abandoned? The docker page was last updated three days ago and there is activity on the github page. Are they just updating the software without pushing any security fixes? I've definitely not had issues renewing certificates

Thank you! I have a followup question if you don't mind. If I host npm on a vps that allows me, say 500GB of data transfer a month, and I am streaming media through a jellyfin instance that I have forwarded through the VPS, will the media I'm streaming count against that transfer amount? This seems like basic information that I should have learned a long time ago.

It seems like you can select everything in the admin panel, which is what I did. But only the languages that have actually appeared in your instance will show as options in the individual user settings, so I was only able to select Undetermined and English on my user. Anyway, the devs should format the language lists as checkboxes, that would have completely solved the issue since I would have known from the start that I could select multiple things. My browsing experience just got exponentially better!

Damn, there it is. It was the language, actually the opposite of what you described. I logged out of my instance and magically all the posts appeared. Then I noticed that only posts without a language were appearing. I had undetermined selected as the server language in the admin panel, I didn't realize I could select more than one thing (and the warning about deselecting Undetermined had me thinking that only having undetermined selected would let me see everything). So, I turned on more languages in the admin panel and then selected English and Undetermined as the languages in my user account and voilá! Thank you for your help!
