Sounds interesting. I started an Ubuntu server about a year ago, didn’t get very far. Really only using FreshRSS right now. Would really like to move it to my NixOS flake and learn/add services as I go along.
True, it’s shockingly simple sometimes, and other times I feel like I need to be a rocket scientist. Emphasis on “feel” because in those instances, there is nothing to go by for documentation.
I am hoping that shortly after mine can read & write, and I add a machine with NixOS for them to use, they will exceed my understanding of nix and start to teach me. 🤔
That rug really tied the room together.
I’m back to the web app. Unfortunately, with the amount of articles in my feed, the Read You app takes forever to load. Plus the web app works very well as is.
Same issue here. Deleted the F-Droid version. Easy way is to add it via Obtanium and let that manage your updates for you. Added my freshrss account via gnzl@nc.gnzl.cl’s comment above .
You bet! I use it all the time, plus you can enter channels, which for the life of me, I cannot understand why Roku never allowed a long press on their reomte in order to enter a channel number with the arrows. 🎶Dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb!🎶
Hopefully sideloading becomes a thing for iOS users. Used to have an iPhone, can’t say I miss it.
Use RoMote Roku remote: https://f-droid.org/en/packages/wseemann.media.romote/
I dislike that it is hard to find relevant instructions on what you are looking for. That being said, there are many channels- Matrix, Discourse, Discord, Lemmy, that have a lot of smart people that are willing to help.
I’m not a programmer and I run NixOS on my personal, family, and friends’ PCs. After about three months of struggling severely, I was able to get my one flake git repo to the point where I have installed it and replaced other linux distros with NixOS on these machines. I also don’t often understand the warnings that are displayed when rebuilding a configuration, but have been able to solve them so far with a little guess work sometimes.
I’m setting them up with syncthing for their home directories and am looking into some easier than rsync based programs to keep them backed up. Then I can easily reinstall NixOS, git clone the flake, and have them back up and running in the event that they nuke their PC. This hasn’t happened yet, unlike on other distros. Plus, I have only received complements about the systems. Someday, if Wayland gets there, I will be able to remotely access them. There probably is a way, but I haven’t figured out an easy way to do so yet.
So overall more happy and satisfied, because all things tech take time and learning.
Next step is to port my Ubuntu server over to NixOS and probably use Docker to spin up webapps. Maybe even declare them the nix way.
Also, depending on how the flake is setup, you might also have to add .#hostname
, at least for the initial run. After that .#
can evaluate which host is being rebuilt.
Congrats! It took me three months to get everything running the way I wanted. Now I run a bunch of machines off of a single flake, managing family and friend’s machines too. Next is moving my server over to nixos. Read through the wiki and site, get on the nixos discord or matrix site, ask questions, use the discourse, and when you feel confident nixos-rebuild switch --flake .

True. Plus, while dumb, 53% will always beat the interest extracted by two goons and a baseball bat. There’s always a trade-off!
