I too use Kagi but it’s worth noting that Kagi gets most of its results by paying and using other search engines including Google and Bing, so it’s not 100% independent or immune from say Bing’s outage. Still the best option by far though.
I started self-hosting a bit prior to when Docker took off, and getting multiple services running was much harder. Service A wants a certain version of PHP installed with certain plugins while Service B wants a different version. You’d follow a tutorial for installing Service C and desperately hope that it wouldn’t somehow break Service A or B. You installed Service D for a bit despite all the installation pain and now want to uninstall it - I hope you tracked exactly what config changes you made throughout the system so you can undo it.
Docker fixed all of this by making each service independent through containers which made self-hosting 10x easier. I’d also add that I love how easy it is to transfer my setup to a new server - I keep all of my container volumes in a specific directory and my docker-compose files in another and that’s all I need to backup / transfer. Without Docker you’d have to specifically handle each & every configuration file and database location, and if you later upgrade to a newer version of the OS or a different distro you’d have to handle possible conflicts between your versions and what the distro expects.
I suggest checking out their discount brands Kimsufi and SoYouStart. I pay like C$12/month for a dedicated server with a few cores, 8GB of RAM, and 2TB of hard drive space.
Yeah they make the same point in their subscribers-only podcast. They did say that they earn enough to be sustainable, so it sounds like they aren’t having to dip into their savings anymore. I hope they get more than that though as everyone deserves to thrive.
Yeah it stops converting numbers too. At my job we have a lot of ids that start with 0, and it was super annoying to have ‘000123’ turn into ‘123’, now it keeps it as text.
I’m not sure what version got this, but there’s a setting now where you can disable auto-conversion and it’s amazing.

FYI I’ve had a really good experience with using Headscale for a true open-source Tailscale experience. It helps that the Tailscale clients work with it too and that Tailscale (very unofficially) help support it.
Thanks and I do indeed use Cloudflare DNS. Glad to know that it’s not some bad IP reputation thing.
Is anyone else having trouble reading the link (and can someone send me the original URL?). I just get stuck in an infinite captcha loop where I verify I’m not a robot, the page refreshes, and then it asks me again.
I think you should take baby-steps and focus first on just getting something running for you to use. Maybe first experiment with configuring an application you’d like in a virtual machine before you spend money on hardware too.
I see you met my boss.
Not actually the case, but I am frustrated with them right now for not understanding the value of preventative work and R&D (I’m a Data Scientist).
If the values fall low enough relative to transaction fees then there won’t be any transactions at all for creators to collect royalties. Also values can drop to literally $0 if it isn’t even worth a buyer or sellers time to deal with the NFT (i.e. seller can’t find buyer at any price or doesn’t bother trying).
Similar to what other people mentioned, I find it good at filtering out the obvious SEO spam. Otherwise the top 3 results of a search aren’t really different.
I have a Wireguard network setup for my devices that routes through my somewhat distant server. I find when I have both it and Tailscale open, Tailscale tries routing through Wireguard even though both devices might be on the same LAN. Unfortunately I don’t believe Tailscale has a way to forbid it from routing over other VPNs or networks.
Probably a good pricing decision. To avoid hitting the 300/month usage I kept DDG as default and only used Kagi for more complex searches. If I upgrade to this I could then keep Kagi as default.
I can’t speak for those two services in particular, but I know that Matrix will check https://domain.com/.well-known/matrix/server to see what (sub)domain is responsible for domain.com. I suspect other services also use .well-known too.
Not really, no. I used Ubuntu Touch for about a year a few years ago and the method for running Android apps is essentially to run an emulator layer on the phone (anBox), which in practice is nearly unusable. It may have improved somewhat since then but I suspect you’re still going to need a relatively beefy phone at minimum to run whatever solutions there are at a decent speed.
And none the container names or link aliases conflict? Like you don’t have multiple db containers? Perhaps try renaming the Nextcloud db to something like nextcloud_db if you aren’t already.
No, because these licenses can’t bind the copyright owner themselvess. AGPL is the terms that OwnCloud allows us access to it, but as it’s their code they don’t need a license to do whatever with it.
Let me put it another way - OwnCloud would be the only folks with standing to sue someone for violating the AGPL on their code. That means that the only people who could possibly sue OwnCloud for having a non-AGPL version is… OwnCloud. So even if the AGPL somehow claimed to bind the copyright owner it still wouldn’t work legally as the copyright owner just has to not sue themselves.
Yes but there are ways to protect against that. For instance you can configure Tailscale clients to only trust nodes that have been signed by trusted nodes, or something like that.
