I’ve never tried this technique but I’m curious to try it out.

I love Nextcloud, but I have everything running in containers, and I have them auto updating on system boot.
Its a super powerful software. Its on my top list of self hosting software. But it breaks so often with auto updates. And there is the potential of having to reinstall it because of a broken install, and your personal service being down for weeks.
Borg backups work, but they are not intuitive to setup when using containers.
Auto setting up trusted domains is not intuitive.
My solution going forward, is to have secondary containers which I don’t update as frequently, that point to the same user files folder on the primary containers. Kind of like having my services load balanced. I plan on doing this for some of my other containers that are frequently down.
In my experience, services that require more than 1 container are the ones that crash the most. Especially when they connect to a database container.

Interesting, I’ve never heard those points before. They’re both super fast for me, and give me really good results.
I was using DDG for many years, but the results were often super bad and I hadn’t noticed until I started using Google search again. Then I started using Ecosia and Qwant, and the results have been sometimes better and sometimes worse than Google – mainly only worse whenever I need Google Maps for its various features around businesses that OpenStreetMap is missing.
I’m preaching to the choir here, but for those who don’t know

Both of the above are currently in partnership as well.

Although Navidrome, if going legally, I’ve only found Bandcamp Fridays practical for buying music so far: https://isitbandcampfriday.com/
We have https://codeberg.org/ as an alternative to Bitbucket, and you can have free public static pages like Netlify or Github pages.
Codeberg also offers private repos.
8·1 month agoI still have my CAD $210 Google credit from Google because they throtted my Pixel, and I might let it expire because I want a Fairphone instead.
Who else is using Peter Thiels crap?
True, but then on the upside it’s not a Google phone. Which could be more secure from nefarious back doors.
Also there is a part of the Pixel phone which you’re locked from reformating – Is it the bios or bootloader?
As an alternative, if you wanted something less secure, and more ethical, consider buying a Fairphone. However GrapheneOS does not support Fairphone at this moment.
If anyone is looking for a Canadian or international order, I just found this U.K. site which multiple threads of Reddit have been talking about. They offer shipping tracking.

That’s kind of a weird question, no? If I’m going to invest in a server, I want to see some kind of integrity and trust first.
This is the first time I’ve seen this link or company name. I’m not saying they’re bad, but I was hoping the person who shared the link had something to vet them.
First time I’ve heard of Unredacted. Do they have somewhere to show their legitimacy.
Never connect your TV to your wireless and wired internet, even on initial purchase. Use a USB when updating your TV.

Looks as if Visa Debit has about the same and slightly less fees than Visa Credit Cards.

Looks like buying physical gift cards is the way to go…
But they’re much cheaper on fees than non-debit MasterCard and Visas?
Use Molly as your Signal client instead. It solves this.
