+1 for Minetest both client and server too; we run one locally for the kiddos :)

I’m currently wearing a continuous glucose monitor. Does that count? I’m all for anything voluntary especially if it improves quality of life without impeding on others.

Here’s a 60-day free trial to tinker with as well: https://www.linode.com/tux

I’m currently self hosting:

• Jellyfin: TV shows for kiddos
• Minetest: gaming with kiddos
• Supertuxkart: more gaming with kiddos
• Pi-hole: DNS with several filters
• Tiny Tiny RSS: feed reader
• Nextcloud: phone sync and project management
• Gitea: code tracking and version control
• JSketcher: CAD drawing
• Stable Diffusion: AI art

The last two are local-network only and the most recent additions; still just tinkering with them at this point.

My favorite of the list is probably TT-RSS which I use for podcasts and to keep tabs on a few sub-reddits I had participated in before moving to Lemmy.

Cool concept! And congrats on getting it up and running :)

Thanks; quite a few have recommended this one which is nice to see

Fantastic; thank you :)

Very cool design; how well do they stay put on the desk? My last split keyboard would nudge slowly during use and had to be moved back which I found annoying.

The Advantage 2 looks pretty good; bit pricey though I expected as much. Thank you!

Yeah, bigger solutions like Azure, AWS, etc. have some cool features especially for scaling but… that comes with its own headaches.

For earlier stages I personally much prefer a simple VPS where I can freely do what I want with it including total wipes, snapshots / rollbacks, etc.

If you’re comfortable working on a local VM then perhaps a VPS such as Linode or Digital Ocean would be a good place to start; they’re essentially VMs hosted in cloud you have total control of so you can install whatever you want just like a local VM. Even the cheapest VPS option is plenty for this sort of testing.

These have free trials too such as: https://www.linode.com/tux

To be fair I certainly didn’t start with that many; I started with the keto diet roughly 10 years ago, found eggs to be my most convenient breakfast food and slowly built up the number while reducing the size of my lunch.

6 scrambled eggs made with butter, sour cream, salt and pepper.

I prefer to start the day with a big breakfast, eat a light lunch and then nothing until a moderate supper with a small, low carb dessert in the evening.

I find the large breakfast starts my day well and fatty foods keep me satisfied longer so I’m not tempted to snack throughout the day, especially while working from home where food is always available.
