Selfhosted@lemmy.world•What do you use for your server administration?English
1·1 month agoWhatever you interpret that as since my main goal here is to seed conversation, but the thing that I was thinking of when asking was a web gui with some live stats, doing some simple maintenance stuff, maybe manage or glance at docker/podman status and other services, etc.
Since I’ve seen some conversations about documenting setups so they can be picked up and troubleshot by someone else unfamiliar with the setup like a family member, I expected it would be common to lower the friction for basic maintenance but seeing the amount of ssh comments makes me think otherwise, maybe more people use their servers exclusively for personal entertainment than I expected.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Do you stick to the same linux distro across your devices?English
2·2 months agoMy laptop needs reliability to be fairly certain I’ll have everything working when I use it on poor internet, my desktop is always comnected to high bandwidth and has a decent cpu so I can spare a bit extra time and cycles on updating everything when something breaks
Different needs
I did like having the same thing going on on both for the couple months I used mint on both.
I use linux exclusively on desktop, it’s got a lot of problems, many seem unique to the user, I hate that the way to discuss the problems for a lot of people is pretending they don’t exist, makes first contact more problematic for newcomers. Even before touching linux I’ve been hating that attitude with a passion from windows users, at least it’s not a problem exclusive to linux.

11·3 months ago- Obs uses more cpu in cachyos than linux mint, no idea why or what I can do about it, experienced the same difference between manjaro and mint (might be something to do with kde)
- audio breaks, when I boot I have to switch to output devices to fix it. No idea why
- sometimes it logs out of the desktop and when logging in it freezes
Having said all that I’m having the time of my life with cachyos, everything works great and better than it ever has in my experience running an nvidia GPU. I did do some tweaks of my own, wizh I didn’t have to but it’s not bad at all
Mostly borderlands 3 with a friend and dungeons of hinterberg by myself.
The latter takes quite a while to get mechanically interesting (combat-wise, the general flow of the game is very interesting on its own), if you like the chill vibes and cutesy people it likely won’t be a problem for you, I started playing it while I was doing something else and I feel like I had to play way too muchh before it got really interesting, before that the combat is too spimplistic and same-y, almost all of it is hidden behind game progression and I don’t think you’re supposed to have a rich full experience on your first playthrough which is… A choice… Other than that, it’s really lovely and kinda chill, it’s not the smoothest combat in the world, but you don’t play it for the combat.
Borderlands 3 has the most fun guns in the series so far from the games I’ve played with my friend, which are bl 2, bl presequel and now bl3, next in line is tiny tina’s dnd campaign, hopefully we get to finish 3 after wine 11 improvements hit my distro on the main branch, I don’t want to be swapping that stuff.
