  • Yeah, I know, I am in the process of leaving where I am now (eu citizen) and its between uk, germany and the netherlands. The reason I didnt look seriously at swiss, is because of all the stories I heard about people never integrating, despite efforts.

    I'm looking for my forever place, that means balls deep in every aspect.

  • This is such a superficial take.

    Flatpaks have their use-case. Alpine has its use-case as a small footprint distro, focused on security. Using flatpaks would nuke that ethos.

    Furthermore, they need those servers to build their core and base system packages. There is no distro out there that uses flatpaks or appimages for their CORE.

    Any distro needs to build their toolchain, libs and core. Flatpaks are irrelevant to this discussion.

    At the risk of repteating myself, flatpaks are irrelevant to Alpine because its a small footprint distro, used alot in container base images, containers use their own packaging!

    Furthermore, flatpaks are literal bloat, compared to alpines' apk packages which focus on security and minimalism.

    Edit: Flatpak literally uses alpine to build its packages. No alpine, no flatpaks. Period

    Flatpaks have their use. This is not that. Check your ignorance.

  • So many tips, let me add mine.

    • btop - for monitoring and process management
    • pacseek - terminal UI for installing, searching packages (uses yay)
    • chaotic aur - repo for prebuilt binaries that are generally ok

    When installing use the archinstall the first time, unless you really want to go into the deep end and use the normal install.

  • That averages out to around 300 megabytes per second. No way anyone has that at home comercially.

    One of the best comercial fiber connections i ever saw will provide 50 megabytes per second upload, best effort that is.

    No way in hell you can satisfy that bandwidth requirement at home. Lets not mention that they need 3 nodes with such bw.

  • I'd love to help out. Some fax: I'm not very active in c/piracy but that can be changed, would enforce rules, knowledgeable about pirate culture ... I had a very snazzy demonoid account back in the day, so sure, why not. To the last point, goes without saying. CET.

  • I cancelled my proton the other day, right after his post.

    As alternatives:

    • tuta for mail
    • psono, keepass, passbolt (self hosted) for the password manager
    • mullvad for vpn ( actually never used the proton one, I swear by mullvad)

    Im still figuring out the drive, thinking of self hosting that too.

    Good luck out there.

  • It is THE most relevant to your problem. I have friends like you, they are miserable but never change anything about themselves to improve their life. I was the same, went to therapy, opened up and untangled the bullshit that was my brain. Takes effort man.

    You see the replies don't you? There is more than one person pointing at the problem.

  • Do it. But please be self-aware and remember that absolute power corrupts absolutely.

    Lets not get bogged down in analysis paralysis. Do it, gauge the feedback, adjust, iterate (the beatings will continue until morale improves).
