“What is your favorite self-hosted application?” had what looks to be about 15 matrix responses.
Would potentially be interesting to see Matrix/XMPP/etc prevalence in future surveys, maybe replacing ‘what activitypub apps’ with a more generic ‘what federated apps do you self-host’
Yeah that’s going to be a very handy feature and a strong motivator for me to get the untracked amount down to zero.
I think shared hosting there is more meant to refer to the older “upload your files in webmin and we’ll shove them in /cgi-bin/ with everybody else’s”-style hosting where multiple users sites are running on a single instance of a webserver versus a VPS giving you a VM with SSH access?
Possibly not relevant to your use case, but one point that I haven’t seen mentioned yet is that for many SUVs that are available in both FWD and AWD, the tow rating will be significantly higher for the AWD version (like 5000lbs vs 3500lbs for FWD in the case of the Toyota Highlander and Honda Pilot)
What part were you getting hung up on?
That’s news to me considering the EPA-rated fuel economy of vehicles with both hybrid and pure ICE drivetrains is universally higher for the hybrid versions.
An ICE vehicle needs a much larger engine than is truly necessary due to the inefficiencies and limitations of mechanical transmissions, whereas a hybrid can have a much smaller, more efficient engine.
A hybrid can potentially act like a ‘perfect’ transmission, capable of taking in power from an engine running at its single most efficient RPM and, with the aid of battery storage, produce any combination of speed and torque that has an average power less than the output of the ICE.
Used Ubuntu for ~15 years, switched to NixOS a couple months ago and haven’t looked back.
I’ve made a habit of clean installing all of the desktops/laptops/servers in my life on the first point release of each LTS (i.e. 22.04.1). That would mean there was time for the dust to settle and for me to tweak my install/customization scripts from the previous LTS.
So since I knew I was gonna have to modify my Ubuntu install scripts to work with 24.04 anyways, I fiigured it was a decent time to try and see if I could get the install scripts converted to a nix config instead, and it ended up working a treat.
If you are dead set on a specifically certificate-backed access control scheme, a VPN with the ability to use the hardware-backed certificate store (such as OpenVPN) is likely easier to set up as it is better supported on mobile devices and doesn’t require application-level support (i.e. everything is protected, not just the apps w/ mTLS support)

I do find rclone to be a bit more comprehensible for that purpose, rsync always makes me feel like I’m in https://xkcd.com/1168/
Must have an android client,support mtls,support attachments and card layout.
ps: pls don’t suggest to save to local storage and sync that.
pls don’t suggest this app that cant do that but its great.
Anyways anyone aware of any app that can do that?
Nope, you seem to be well aware of the options available to you and there isn’t any one single app that meets all of your requirements, so unfortunately we can’t recommend anything at all to you, per your specific request.
You’ll have to build it yourself either from scratch or by taking one of the existing open-source tools and adding the missing functionality.
Looking forward to your pull requests!
Restic and borg are both sorta considered ‘standard’ for doing incremental backups beyond filesystem snapshotting.
I use restic and it automatically handles stuff like snapshotting, compression, deduplication, and encryption for you.
DigitalOcean and Vultr are options that “just work” and have reasonable options available in $5-6/month category.
DO is more established and I’ve used them for nearly 10 years now for a $6/mo VPS and for managing DNS for my domains. Vultr has some much closer datacenter options if you happen to be in the southeast US, rather than basically just covering California and NYC like DO does.
Oh nice a nicely-formatted list of reasons I don’t switch phones more frequently than once every 5 years: I loathe setting them up as specifically as I want them to behave
I have had the Sandisk Ultra Luxe 512GB version for a few years now with Ventoy on it and have been very pleased with it. I keep a cheap USB-C to USB-A attached to it and that lets me use it with my phone or on any computer.
