  • Some people seem to hate on it, but I love Docker, it works well for what it has to do and has relatively low overhead as far as I can tell. I personally virtualize a Debian server on Proxmox for my containers just so as to keep everything even more compartmentalized, but it takes more work than it’s worth to set up.

    And if you don’t like Docker for whatever reason, you can also try Podman which is API compatible with Docker for the most part.







  • I self host Bitwarden (Vaultwarden) so I just use the built-in TOTP authenticator in the Bitwarden app. It’s nice to have it all in one place + having auto copy and paste when I log in. And because I self host, it’s all backed up securely and with (as far as I know) no real backdoors.

    ETA: just realized what community this is in. people that replied to me I’m sorry lmao, I’m not a nut about this kinda stuff and I’m by no means recommending this just like using it this way for convenience factor and to keep the likes of google out of my password.












  • Basically what IverCoder said, but also sometimes I like not having to tinker with my desktop at all. I’m running through an Arch Install on my Thinkpad right now just for the fun of it and I do love this kind of thing, but I’ll admit the concept of plugging in a USB stick, installing a distro in one click, downloading my apps through Flatpak and not having to mess with the CLI a whole bunch is very appealing. Yes you can do that with Ubuntu or whatever but (at least in my workflow) you still have to mess with the CLI a bit.

    Basically, I like messing with Linux sometimes but other times I just want a, I suppose Windows-like experience while still having Linux under the hood.
