I liked Trilium but I use low end android devices and it did not like low resource devices. Same for Joplin too. If you do not have that issue, I thought Trilium Notes was very nice.

I used wallabag and liked it. I stopped when I had to move my server and backed up the data. I installed wallabag again and the backup would not work with the latest version. I had exported it in various ways as well, just in case one didn’t work well but none worked. So that left a bad taste in my mouth. This might have coincidentally happened right in a database upgrade or something inbetween the 2 versions, but the fact that my backup could not be used frustrated me. Still looking for an alternative and am considering readdeck like you. I tried it a while back and did not see a way to export data at that time (I think it could have been done from command line though?). Been over a year since then so maybe that has changed. Right now I am using Shaarli for bookmarks and it works. It doesn’t stick for me like wallabag did though.

I have tried all of them and yunohost is the best for me. I have been able to test self-hosted software that I could not otherwise. Cosmos and CasaOS work for many people, but they did not use some of the software I wanted to try; when I tried to set up a docker image of those pieces of software, it did not work. I understand that it was my failure to understand docker that failed here, so if you know docker, these might be much more useful to you.

That was my first thought as well, but I think he means things, not time. You miss this thing and that as you stare at your phone. So in that second of mindless scrolling, you missed things around you that might have added something to your day, to your life. So ‘how much of your life do you let pass by’ is not asking how many seconds of life did you let pass by (though that is the first thought upon reading), but ‘how many things that could have affected your life- for the better or worse- do you let pass you by?’

Thank you for the help! I looked around for a resource for the plants for you and found a nutrient deficiency dichotomy that was okay. I usually look to Cornell university for resources but they didn’t have a specific dichotomy test like this that i could find. This picture also had a nice picture for quick diagnosis (upper leaf issues or lower). This resource is pretty good too!

Here are some more pictures, with better lighting.

1. Layering
2. Top Layer
3. Decided to check if I could peel it. Yup, it was easy.

The printer is a Sovol SV08, which is a corexy printer with pla. I use Freecad to design the parts and OrcaSlicer 2.3.1 to slice it. It is in my room on a desk in the open air and I have a fan running in the room. Several people have mentioned it cooling too fast, so I am suspecting that fan being the issue…

I went a step further and have user-installed flatpaks with a custom flatpak directory so everything installs on a separate small hard drive. If the whole system goes down (usually due to my testing things!), I can reinstall set up the custom flatpak and everything works again. In theory. But it borks inter-flatpak communication (flatseal cannot find any other flatpaks and is thus unusable). I moved over to distrobox (which has its own issues, but works better for the OS wiped/reinstall scenario).

I just took a look at the docs on zknotes, which show off how zknotes work. I really love the links at the bottom of each document! Do the links break if you change the title of the other note? I had that happen in QOwnNotes and it was a very annoying realization after I’d renamed a bunch of notes to standardize things.

when I was starting Tiddlywiki I think I was bouncing between which one to try, Dokuwiki or Tiddlywiki. I decided on TW since it didn’t need a server to run. Considering how it was a race between those two, this suggestion hits the nail on the head. Like the other commenter, I would prefer something that doesn’t require a server, but since it just uses text files, even if I don’t have access to the server I can view the text file and edit them on the go as long as i have them sync to the device when it is active. Since my sever is LAN only, I just need to learn how to setup a vpn connection to my server when I’m away from the office and this program would be even more convenient. Maybe I should get on that sooner. Always something to learn and do! Now what to prioritize first~

wiki.js looks really great. I have to put this on my list of things to try out. One worry I have is how lightweight it is on tiny computers. I use are older devices, like a raspberry pi 2, so I’m always wary if programs like this will be smooth. When I started organizing my notes, I tried Joplin because it seems so universally loved. It was a good program but it was nigh unusable on my raspberry pi 2. So that worry is always in the back of my head now when I’m looking for software longterm (and why I will never use an electron app again as it is not a framework that cares about older devices). Since this is on a server, maybe it will be lightweight on devices. I don’t know how much fancy web features it uses and I guess I’ll have to test it to see how it goes. thank you!

Thank you for the suggestion. I’m taking notes on the suggestions everyone has put forward to try out in the future. But thanks to a comment by @stsquad@lemmy.ml, I realized I was thinking wrong in how I tried to use tiddlywiki. I was trying to get it to act like another program, which was more straightforward in workflow, but after sqaud’s suggestion, I considered starting from a text file of my data and thinking about what I’d need on top of that to work. I’ve got some ideas now and it makes Tiddlywiki look less intimidating and confusing than prior. It won’t make use of all the fancy features TW has, but it will work for me I think. And I can always go back and add fancy features later when I’m used to TW. Those notes you linked will definitely be useful so thank you.

I’m impressed by this suggestion. It accomplishes most of what I asked and is elegant in its simplicity. It also shifted my perspective to look at the very basic needs and consider what I need on top of that. Which was actually very helpful for me. I will not be going this route, but your suggestion is greatly appreciated.
