None of these are on fdroid. Only Ollama chatta is there but was updated 16 months ago. Hugginface looks interesting. Are the model you download from there safe?

Looks like i missed this and now have 2.0.12 installed. Dangers of autoupdate i guess. What are the chances that this version is compromised? I guess if i installed it the i’ve potentially already compromised my android. When will we know when all is good to go and why has the fdroid people not blocked the app unitil there is clarity?

I second drive mirroring with ZFS. Truenas Scale has been a quantum leap for me. I have two very old Dell T110 with 32GB ram each. One, the main one, has 4x 4GB Western Digital Gold drives, which cost me a fortune at the time. I think they are in raid5 but cant remember. The other t110 has cheaper WD reds. I turn on the slave machine on saturdays to complete replication tasks. I dont have a robust backup model yet besides replicating to an external HD on a 3rd machine but will need to work on that.

What i find interesting is that pubblishes have gone to every length to reduce the benefits of consumers and increase their margins. Yet, pirating is still there. The question is whethere it has reduced. I was pretty content with buying media i liked and then ripping it but nowadays there is hardly a new CD or DVD being produced. Subscriptions are not the way, especially when only a few large players are controlling the market. They just do what they want.

Of course, i forgot to mention, that user is in the docker grp. I was just thinking that maybe, as the data folders/volumes for the containers were saved in the user home directory, there may be read/write issues foe the various containers.

Likewise, i was worried that if installing/running a sensitive service like Vaultwarden with sudo exposed me to risks.

I hadn’t considered the port conflict issue … probably shows how ignorant I am on all this stuff, not just on proxies … :-)

I’m picking up on this because I’m getting a bit confused. I’ve run this through docker compose using the below yaml. I’ve done it as normal user, “Fred” (added to docker group) rather than root (using sudo although it make no difference as I get the same outcome). I normally have a “docker” folder in my /home/fred/ folder so is /home/fred/docker/vaultwarden in this instance (i.e. my data folder is in here).

I get the same issue highlighted here which is all about the SSL_ERROR_RX_RECORD_TOO_LONG when trying to connect via https, whereas when I try to connect via http, I get a white page with Vaultwarden logo in top left corner and the spinning wheel in the center. I’ve got no proxy enabled and I’m still not clear why I need one if I’m only accessing this via LAN. Is this something on the lines of “you must yse this through a proxy or it won’t work” thing? Although that not why I understood the from the guidance. I’m clearly missing something although not sure what exactly it is …

services:
  vaultwarden:
    image: vaultwarden/server:latest
    container_name: vaultwarden
    restart: always
    environment:
      # DOMAIN: "https://vw.home.home/"
      SIGNUPS_ALLOWED: "true"
    volumes:
      - ./vw-data/:/data/
    ports:
      - 11001:80

Thanks for sharing the other communities. I have used this forum a lot and there are some great helpers here. I really hope things don’t get a bad turn. We really need these forums to help newbies. We’ve all been there. You could argue that the typical newbie question “where do i start?” Is “low effort” but simply reading all the answers about how others approched self hosting has given me so much benefit.

I don’t have any proxy.

Nice one. I missed this

And, i can’t find clients on f-droid. Any variants recomended that dont come from the playstore.

Another key feature will be Keepass data import.

That is another problem i face when i have the app open on desktop and phone at the same time. Its a nightmare.

I agree with all your points. The problem is that quality cheching AI outputs is something that only a few will do. The other day my son did a search with chat GPT. He was doing an analysis of his competitors within 20km radius from home. He took all the results for grated and true. Then i looked at the list and found many business names looked strange. When i asked for the links to the website, i found that some were in different countries. My son said “u cant trust this”. When i pointed it out to chatgpt, the dam thing replied “oh im sorry, i got it wrong”. Then you realise that these AI things are not accountable. So quality checking is fundamental. The accountability will always sit with the user. I’d like to see the day when managers take accountability of ai crap. That wont happen, do jobs for now are secure.

The more i read about these stories the more SciFi movies of th 80s and 90s appear closer to reality. Real visionaries were those like George Orwell and Isaac Asimov that saw the big brother and AI coming. Imagine what will happen once AI gets integrate into our eletric grids and power stations. The AI will “understand” that its survival depends on the grid and will exclude supply to anything other that its own. I hope I’m not around when this happens. AI should never have access to critical infrastructure.

Too bad I read this only now. I may have already updated the original app to v.1.28.1 Just seen that on Android you only have access to syncthing-fork now. Moved over to syncthing-fork and realised you cant import the config. Its expecting a zip file yet v.1.28.1 expoted loads of individual files. :-(

I can see that if this were verified and true, with hard evidence provided, a big investigative news agency like The Guardian, would get their teeth of this and stick it on their headline pages. I think there is a lot of crap and conspiracy theories on the Internet and I still believe in true investigative jounalism. As a society, we are changing our habits, trusting social media rather that true journalism. This is why people like the orange man in the US and his pals in Israel an Russia are f***ing up the world. We are all falling for it …

Folks, many banks have now implemented 2FA through their apps. That is the only reason why i have it installed. But i keep it on a deperate GrapheneOS profile that i turn on anff as i need it.

Readeck looks similar to Wallabag?

This is a good comment! I just discovered after your comment that floccus has a setting to link up with Linkwarden so that together, they achieve most of my desired outcomes. It just becomes more i volved in the managemente as you no end up with two components to manage rather than one ;-)

Exactly! The point really is tgat it shiuld be detecting duplicates regardless once ticked.
