Debian is awesome but only if you don’t care about having the newest features and updates.

Some people say it’s “evil” since some drama with RedHat or something? I actually never looked into that drama and it’s probably overreaction of someone but has anyone heard of it or an idea what it’s about?

Yes I know about AppFlowy and also about Anytype. However AppFlowy feels off for some reason and not as stable. Anytype feels pretty good but it has the issue that you can’t store and sync more than I think 1 GB of data. You could self host a sync server but that’s extra complicated with that software for some reason. So it’s not really a good alternative either. :/

An actually good alternative to Notion for Linux.

I personally just switched from Immich to Ente on my self hosted server, since it is E2EE and since sync doesn’t work that good for users on iOS with Immich right now. Also Ente just open sourced all their stuff including their server and supports self hosting. Very nice.

Downloaded it and I love it!

I’d love to use it especially since Android Auto is working on it, too. The only thing holding me back is not being able to pay with my phone. I’m currently only having my phone and keys with me. So it’s extra convenient to not have to take my wallet with me.

But to be fair the devs can’t make anything against that restriction as of now. I still wish there would be some way to be able to pay contactless using your card with GrapheneOS.

Ideally “users” wouldn’t only be IT guys but also an average person. Some of my friends use Matrix to message me. They certainly are no developers or have technical IT knowledge. They certainly don’t know how to set up a bot. With discord you just add a bot to your server (equivalent to a Matrix Space) and there you go. That’s user friendly. Matrix bots work yes. But they are by far not user friendly.

But IRC doesn’t really support E2EE in 1:1 chats right? Because that’s something very important for me. I don’t want to use an app only for public channels I ideally would like to use it for everything. Including messaging the people I know.
