Personally, i would use VPN, Pihole for Local-DNS Records and a simple Local Reverse Proxy to address my Network-Services. I wouldnt open anything from my Homelab to the Internet.

I am using the same i use for my Smartphone. Fairbuds XL via Bluetooth.

No Problem :)

I think there is an APP for all major Plattforms (Desktop and Mobile):

https://stoat.chat/download

iOS and Android are listed.

Or what do you mean with mobile client?

Maybe Stoat/Revolt is for you. Stoat has - in my opinion - the same look and feel as discord.

It is OpenSource, selfhostable and it comes with most features discord has - excluding nitro.

There is an Android, Linux and Windows APP.

Looks interesting. But i am used to gitea. I use it for Years now on my workplace and in my homelab.

Maybe i will try Forgejo in The future.

I have Seen a post that it should be able by now, yeah.

Edit:

Installation-Guide: https://github.com/joinloops/loops-server?tab=readme-ov-file

Didnt host my own instance yet, but it looks like you could build your own.Would also make sense because its v1-beta release.

Well than the possibilities are endless for OP. Let The Linux-Party begin :P

You could check for Linux support. I suppose it runs on an Arm-Processor.

Maybe it runs PostmarketOs.

Edit: If you can run Linux on it:

Selfhosted:

• Gitea (If you are a programmer)
• Stash (Organized NSFW-Content ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) )
• Nextcloud
• Simple-Server ( NAS/SFTP/SSH)
• MeTube (Youtube-Downloader)
• Kitchenowl/Mealie (Kitchen-Organization / Mealprep)
• Lute (Selfhosted Alternative to Duolingo)
• Speedtest (Monitoring Internet-Speed)
• wishlist
• Hortusfox (For managing your Plants)
• MotionEye (Security-Cam-Monitoring)

On-Device:

• Libreelec/Kodi (Media-Device)
• Retroarch (Retro-Gaming-Station)

Also you could try a software named “Bottles” (https://usebottles.com/download/ ).

It has a pretty simple GUI and you can click your configs together.

At first you have to define a “bottle” which simply represents an virtual environment for your Windows-Application or Game.

You can define which Windows Version you want to create and it asks you, if it is a Desktop-App or a Game you want to run. And based on that it will create an environment prepared for your Individual situation.

It also supports proton.

Wow… Just learned about that NOW. I wanted to play some games today and wondered why my account doesnt work nor the “forgot password”-Function…

Fuck Meta. Fuck Oculus… Fuck this whole Enshittification that is going on lately…

Is there ANY Way, to get my CV1 to run Without an account?!

Update 2: We are together for this weekend again.

I’m on a waiting-list for therapy now.To overcome my jealousness and maybe learn to improve my communication-skills.

She wants me back now, but on the premise that she will move back to her Parents house. Feels like a breakup “light” for me… Because you all know… She doesn’t make any romantic actions with me in public. Doesn’t tell colleagues about me…And the situation with sex 2-4 times a year…I don’t know… Doesn’t seem to be “it” anymore.

For me, our bed time, with all the little rituals were pretty much the single source of energy, were I got love and affection. And obviously she wants to reduce that also now…

Thinking to break up the relationship myself now… :(

Thank you! Gone are the days were I said “Wait! I have a meme for that!” -> Since Immich it is just “Here is a meme for that!”

I should do that, but i dont do it at the Moment.

Maybe in the future. It should be pretty simple by running my attached drives as a RAID 1-Cluster or something.

They’re running on NAS 24/7 online-Drives. At the Moment I’m pretty confident that I am safe.

I would say it is, but to be fair, i work as a programmer and with Linux on a daily basis.

But there are plenty of tutorials which teach you to flash some OS to your Pi or even complete guides to build immich on top of a pi:( https://pimylifeup.com/raspberry-pi-immich/ )

The raspberry pi is the famoust single board Computer and therefore there are tons of projects and things you can do with it.

Immich is the best alternative I can think of. It runs about 2 years now on my raspberry pi.

And there is even a OpenSource Companion App which syncs Photos Automatically to the Server (https://droidify.eu.org/app/?id=app.alextran.immich&repo_address=https%3A%2F%2Ff-droid.org%2Frepo .

The Search is so good that I host another sever just for my meme-Collection! It even recognise Tags like NSFW out of the Box. And all that on your own hardware! You can search by people, cities, countries Dates, Devices and so on

You can selhost it on your own Hardware. Its pretty simple. You just have to install docker and docker-compose and follow the instructions on their site.

If you followed and learned that, you can pretty much host ANY other App just like that. Its pretty much always the same steps.

Thank you, thats really kind.

Ja ich bin Deutscher. Das macht es deutlich einfacher zu schreiben. Tja 6 Jahre einfach weg… Ist echt scheiße.

Ich danke dir auf jeden Fall dafür, dass du das alles gelesen hast und dich mit meiner Situation beschäftigt hast!

Und vor allem auch für das Angebot!

Aber ich glaube ich will jetzt erstmal alleine sein… Ich fühl mich im Moment noch wie betäubt…

Ich konnte nicht weinen, wie beim ersten Mal. Sie dafür diesmal schon.

Meinte Sie hätte mich lieber erst jetzt kennengelernt. Im Moment sieht Sie in mir nur noch die Fehler die Ich am Anfang unserer Beziehung gemacht habe. Meint aber auch das es unfair ist, weil ich mich schon deutlich gebessert habe und man das auch sieht… Es nur halt nicht reicht.

Sie will mich nicht verletzen, aber Sie ist nicht mehr glücklich.

Sie will es sich heute nochmal durch den Kopf gehen lassen und mir morgen mitteilen ob es diesmal endgültig ist…

Zum Glück ist das Remaster von Oblivion released worden und ich hab noch Urlaub. Schlafen kann ich jetzt eh erstmal nicht mehr :/

Update: We just broke up.

Thank you for reading all this and being honest to me. Really appreciate it!

I will try my best.

Yeah I agree. That is one part of the problem, because I try to reach her and talk about things and she is really fast annoyed about all that.

I respect her boundaries and normally she does respect mine.

In the meantime she texted me, but not to this context. She just ignored it. I will drive in 2 hours to her parents house and will talk about it than.

I really just want to be a part of that for one time. So he knows that I am still in a relationship with her. And after that she can met him alone for some time again.

Because as mentioned, she doesn’t tell anyone about me (apart from parents and close friends. Kevin isnt one of those close friends). She wants that our relationship is a private thing.

Its just… That really bad taste, because he just did cheat with a person who was in a relationship. I do not trust him. And also will make him clear, that I am still in a relationship with her.
