  • I’ve been slowly working on a set of decoupled services that could replace some aspects of GitHub.

    https://pr.pico.sh/ — a pastebin supercharged for git collaboration.

    https://pgit.pico.sh/ — static site generator for git repos.

    Both are still WIP but I think they are pretty handy

  • If you want low effort high value then get a synology 2 bay. If you want full control over the host OS then run Debian/arch with zfs

  • I didn’t use any of the terms you used in your post. I’m not using those products in part for the reasons I discussed but also I don’t see it particularly useful beyond a cult of personality building it.

  • I used shotcut for light video editing and it worked great, no complaints

  • I went down a similar path as you. The entire proxmox community argues making it an appliance with nothing extra installed on the host. But the second you need to share data — like a nas — the tooling is a huge pain. I couldn’t reliably find a solution that felt right.

    So my solution was to make my nas a zfs pool on my host. Bind mounting works for CTs but not VMs which is an annoying feature asymmetry. So I decided to also install an nfs server that exposed my nas.

    I know that’s not what you want but just wanted to share what I did.

    The feature asymmetry between CTs and VMs basically made CTs not part of my orchestration.

  • Librefox has been awesome. Once you get the hang of enabling cookies for specific sites it mostly just works. Although Fastmail keeps logging me out for some reason

  • Here’s my homelab journey: https://bower.sh/homelab

    Basically, containers and GPU is annoying to deal with, GPU pass through to a VM is even more annoying. Most modern hobbyist GPUs also do not support splitting your GPU. At the end of the day, it’s a bunch of tinkering which is valuable if that’s your goal. I learned what I wanted, now I’m back to arch running everything with systemd and quadlet

  • It is being rewritten using swift

  • I’m a big fan of distrobox although I don’t use it much anymore.

  • I’m of mixed views about this. Omarchy is popular purely because of DHH. I don’t see anything of benefit beyond the notoriety of a famous dev.

    There’s also some dissenting opinion about DHH in general that taints the project: https://drewdevault.com/2025/09/24/2025-09-24-Cloudflare-and-fascists.html

    Being based on hyprland also has some potential social issues.

    I don’t get why cloudflare didn’t donate to arch instead.

  • I agree. For everyone’s sake they should rip Rust out and put all that effort into RedoxOS. There is way too much misalignment for this to be constructive.

  • The asahi project shouldn’t even exit with Apples purse, this is their job as far as I care. To be honest I would never use asahi for that reason.
