    How difficult was it for you to configure your self-hosted instance of FMD?

    I already have a server which I use to self host owntracks. However, I don’t know much about nginx and after using the automated owntracks installer, I can’t seem to properly configure reverse proxy for anything else eg. Linkwarden.


  • I initially considered that, but in the end I just bit the bullet and got one 2 weeks ago.

    My thought is with the current trend of PC hardware prices, I didn’t want to wait to see how it affects phone prices.

    At the same time, I do not know if the collaborative phone between GOS and the manufacturer will be something I like. The current Pixel 10 phone is already bigger than what I ultimately prefer and I think it’s more probable the new phone will be phablet sized.

    Very interesting. I was cpnsidering using separate profiles, but I read somewhere that google services is sandboxed anyway, so having it all in 1 profile is fine.

    What I will need a separate profile for though, is for banking apps. I have one which is adament that I use a keyboard app from the play store and will refuse to function if I have one from F-droid installed.

    Congrats. I too also moved to GOS a little over a week ago. Found out a few of the apps fromy old phone no longer work as intended and I’m now discovering the security restrictions of Android 13 is making syncing of files in the Android/data folder very difficult.






  • I have and still use an Ender 3 V2.

    One of the many upgrades which i think makes the most improvent / quality of life upgrade is the Z level probe. Either a BL touch or a CR touch will work. It helped me tram the bed as well as built a mesh of the bed.

    “Professional firmware” is also a good upgrade. Lots of improvements over the stock Creality firmware.

    Once you have been printing with it for some time and feel like tinkering a bit more, “Belted Z” mod for the Ender 3 v2 is another upgrade I did which was really great. It replaces 1 lead screw for 2 belts on each end of the X gantry to prevent sagging.

    I also recently upgraded from the stock ender glass beds and replaced it with PEI sheets. I get the choice of either textured or smooth beds and the prints pop right off. No need to wait for it to cool down or having to pop it in the freezer. LOL
