  • syncthing also relies on a web server for device discovery, it’s just that you’re probably using someone else’s server instead of hosting your own.

    Correct me if I’m wrong, but I also think that Vaultwarden itself doesn’t have access to the unencrypted password database. In that sense it’s E2EE similar to KeePass, the only difference being that KeePass is a desktop app and Vaultwarden a web app.


  • Nothing, this is not about that.

    This change gives you the guarantee that .internal domains will never be registered officially, so you can use them without the risk of your stuff breaking should ICANN ever decide to make whatever TLD you’re using an official TLD.

    That scenario has happened in the past, for example for users of FR!TZBox routers which use fritz.box. .box became available for purchase and someone bought fritz.box, which broke browser UIs. This could’ve even been used maliciously, but thankfully it wasn’t.

    I wouldn’t call criticism of their strategic focus “shitting on” Nextcloud. It obviously still does a lot of things right or at least right enough to be useful and relevant to many people, or else we wouldn’t be discussing it. But it has its issues and many of them have been unadressed for a long time, so why shouldn’t people voice their displeasure with that?

    +1 for restic. I’ve been using it for four years now and have never encountered an issue, including during my yearly restore practice run.

    As far as B2 bucket encryption is concerned, I wouldn’t trust it as far as I can throw it. Quite honestly, it could just be a fancy checkbox on their website without any actual encryption, and we wouldn’t be able to tell. Either way, a compromise of Backblaze would put your data at risk.

    There are quite a few mature projects in 0.x that would cause a LOT of pain if they actually applied semver

    Depending on how one defines the “initial development” phase, those projects are actually conforming to semver spec:

    Major version zero (0.y.z) is for initial development. Anything MAY change at any time. The public API SHOULD NOT be considered stable.

    After looking at the site and trying to determine what to download to get Debian with non-free (I’m unfortunately working with an NVIDIA card)

    FWIW, Debian 12 now includes non-free firmware in the installation media by default and will install whatever is necessary.

    I agree that the Debian website has its weaknesses, but beyond finding the right installer (usually netinst ISO a.k.a small installation image on https://www.debian.org/distrib/) there isn’t much of a learning curve. I started out with Ubuntu too, but finally decided that enough was enough when snap started breaking my stuff on desktop.
