My advice would be, be pragmatical, an error on a backup script I did not notice wiped the time tracking data I had been collecting on my self hosted database for over a year. I got really anxious at first, because of my mistake and because of the data lost. But at the end of the day… Who cares, life goes on, this is only a hobby.

I use Metube

No joke, I once met a guy like this in an indie game developers meetup, and on top of that he was extremely vague about his idea because he told everyone he once managed to get a coder on board and “that rat wanted to take advantage of him and his idea”, literally.

Well, if this app works Instead of Google maps for sending the location you can then disable location collection in Google

Ah I see! Thanks for the explanation, I have pomerium in front of everything using Google as IDP. Then if the app supports header authentication (like grafana) I get automatically logged in, and for those that don’t I have to log in again (a bit inconvenient) I event went as far as forking one and implementing header authentication myself.

What does Authentik do in combination with pomerium? I don’t have it

I use pomerium for that

Wait, what? Sounds like something that belongs to DeviantArt, not YouTube

Ah true, thank you! Then it is tech what I say

I’d say in English there is more of a difference, in my native language the term is more blurry I’d say, for a random person it just sounds as “computers”, and to most people that’s all they care about.

I just say IT

I thought they were called Kinder Bueno only here in Spain

Nice! But I’m currently using Obsidian for note taking

I’m using Mealie for this, and so far suits my needs

What does having OpenTelemetry improve? I have a setup similar to yours but data goes from Prometheus to Grafana and I never thought I would need anything else.

Prometheus, Loki and Grafana.

Oh, this looks nice! I need to try this!

I only backup data I’ve generated myself, nothing that was autogenerated or downloaded from somewhere else.

This goes far beyond backing up since not a long ago I had to deal with emptying the house of a deceased person that had been locked for a while and got to the conclusion the only things worth keeping are original ones (photos, handwritten letters and so…). Anything that could have been bought somewhere else, no matter the antique it was resulted to be almost worthless, not just to me but also to pawn shops, as it seems to be easy to find the exact same thing somewhere else.

So I took that as a life learning and apply the same concept to my data :)

Nice! I’ll try it

I’ve been using miniflux for a while now ok Android, why should I prefer News app?
