Not OP but thanks for bringing n8n to my attention, wasn't aware of it. At a glance it seems similar to Node-RED but leaning more heavily towards the IFTTT/Zapier side of things with tighter integrations, definitely an interesting project.

Yeah, as a Zenfone 9 owner, the 10 basically fixes the few small nitpicks I do have with it. Agreed though, don't see it ever getting officially supported any more than I do any other non pixels.

Not to mention Pixel phones aren't available at all in several countries, don't think I've ever seen one myself

My go-to is Vampire Survivors! Default runs are 30 minutes long but you can make them as short as 15 iirc all the way to endless. Mindless enough that you can zone out but you can get more involved if you want.

As per the documentation, pools are basically just resource groups to make permission management easier, so they aren't really supposed to handle anything like that. Maybe look into a RAID setup of some sort or mergerfs if you just need file level pooling.

I'm also interested, sure can be tough to find dubs for the fam. Pretty sure we got a few private trackers kicking around but I'm not really familiar with any reliable publicly available source off the top of my head.

I've always wanted something like that, very cool!
Any plans to incorporate customizable cloud saves? I'm envisioning listing files and registry keys, maybe fetch a starting point off PCGW to give users an idea of what to expect and whatnot.
Linux client support would be great too, the Steam Deck could make great use of this.

I've gone through Gnome 2, Unity, Cinnamon and nowadays tend to favor KDE and honestly, I pretty much always try to replicate a traditional experience no matter which of them I'm using, so pretty much the opposite of what you're asking, I suppose. I'll say I did appreciate the top left corner quickly exposing all windows, so that feature I try and replicate whenever possible.

Lol sure does if you ask me. I hadn't even realized until you brought it up, but Gnome 2 was my first ever DE way back when I tried Ubuntu for the first time nearly decades ago. Time sure flies!

So it sounds to me like you may have to deal with a IPv4 only address behind CGNAT, which makes port forwarding not work anymore. It's how my connection is set up, but luckily it does fully support IPv6 and that doesn't require any forwarding so I make do.
If IPv6 isn't an option for you or you'd like to access your services from IPv4 only networks, I'd just go with Tailscale myself. I've been a happy user for years and it just works so well, should be good in your situation as well.

I used to self host all of my services at the time (Jellyfin, Radarr, Sonarr, Jackett) on Windows before I built a dedicated server, and it worked surprisingly well. I basically just enabled WSL2, installed Ubuntu and pointed Docker Desktop at that, from there on it was pretty much just logging into Ubuntu and going about my business as usual. Don't recall any major issues during the 2+ years I had that setup going.

There are minor oddities and incompatibilities when it comes to networking (off the top of my head, host networking doesn't work iirc and the Docker host IP alias is different). The main thing is I'm not sure how easy that would be to setup in a remote SSH only environment or if it's even doable or allowed but it was quite simple to set up locally.

Right, that's totally fair. I guess I just think it's such a critical step when it comes to onboarding and user friendliness it could definitely use some extra polish.

Those are Rust and Nim

In my very limited experience with my personal instance, I've had to give federation time for it to start working as expected. When I started out, sometimes I wouldn't find posts or my comments wouldn't show on the instance a post came from and whatnot, don't notice that anymore. Could easily be something wonky on my end though, I'm not sure.
One thing that I still find extremely confusing and unintuitive is searching for a not yet federated community doesn't return any results, but also immediately makes the community visible in the "all" view if it does indeed exist. I was under the impression it'd just show the community link there and then so I assumed it was broken for the longest time, for all I know that's actually how it's supposed to go and I still have something broken somewhere lol.

As someone who's used pretty much every solution out there at some point, I have thoughts on the main contenders:

• Traefik is great if you've got a purely docker setup. It's extremely powerful and the dashboard is quite nice, but it's quite complex and it's got a lot of moving parts. Docker integration works great but the whole label configuration thing is clunky, and the documentation can be confusing.
• Caddy ingests a dead simple config and just works. Can easily handle cert renewal behind the scenes without you even having to think about it, drop the dynamic DNS one in and you basically have it all covered. There's even one that gives it Traefik-like capabilities, although I can't speak for how well it works in practice.
• NPM works great if you're more of a GUI person, very straightforward and impossible to screw up but a bit more annoying to go off the beaten path imo

I personally favor Caddy these days, but they're all solid choices.

Not specific to Lemmy but ubuntu's weird snap version of docker has given me random issues in the past, perhaps that could be the issue. Installing docker by following the official instructions means you are guaranteed to get a fully functional install and that's one variable you wouldn't have to worry about at least.

Edit: Forgot to mention but I'm running it on docker myself, I just followed the official documentation and whatnot. Using a debian 11 based LXC on Proxmox.

You and me both, I've used the reddit one for about a decade and it effectively was reddit as far as I'm concerned. Lemmy's PWA is nice enough but I'll be giddy to get back into the familiar flow.

I gotta say, upon closer inspection Yunohost looks way more elegant and complete a solution than I was picturing. Figured it'd mostly be premade apps ready to install but there's also built-in LDAP + email, let's encrypt certificates, integrated security features, the list goes on and on. If the execution is even remotely as smooth as the documentation suggests, Yunohost sounds great!

Damn, that's as fascinating as it is daunting. Some impressive dedication in there regardless!
