The Edge 20 series isn’t on the list and it’s only about 2 years old…

Here is a script to easily install WireGuard and generate client config files for any server: https://github.com/Nyr/wireguard-install

What were the limitations of borg that you ran into?

Do navigation gestures still work if you use a third party launcher? There was a time when it broke the animations and the gestures became clunky.

I think they run a lot of compute shader, so that they can offload part of the simulation to the GPU, so anything that reduces the utilization of the GPU could improve performance overall.

I used Standard Notes selfosted for a while, but, like many others, I’ve given up due to frequent issues. I’ve been trying Notesnook since and it more than does the job for me. A selfosted version should also be coming soon.

The same goes for Ubuntu. The aarch64 architecture is supported just like x86-64 and everything works great.

Thanks! I’ll try out the lists when I get the chance :)

I did read it and, just like your reply, it doesn’t answer my question.

What I’m asking about is a special case that is not directly addressed in the article. If the carrier supports eSIMs, i.e. you can buy one from them directly instead of a physical SIM, then maybe this transfer tool will work, with the disclaimer that it may not work in some cases. But if the carrier only offers physical SIMs, there is no information whether this new Pixel feature will let you create a usable eSIM.

Do you know the Hagezi lists compare to oisd.nl? The latter have also been great for me, with no false positive that I can remember.

I’ve had bad experience with FocalBoard. Several times it lost data for no apparent reason, including during updates. Eventually I decided to stop using it because it was too fragile.

Can you use the conversion tool on networks that don’t offer eSIMs directly? There are still many networks, especially smaller or cheaper ones, that only offer physical SIMs.

There is a way to enable arbitrary add-ons to work on Firefox for Android, but you have to do a few extra steps: register a Firefox account, create a collection of extensions, then add that collection to your phone. I can tell you that Conset-o-Matic definitely works if you take this route.

Do you know if hardware decode of 4K HEVC works on the Orange Pi 5?

I would take the parent poster’s experience as definitely anecdotal/coincidental. A lot of factors can cause a battery to degrade faster, beyond just faster charging or doing full charge cycles.

Exactly, that’s what I was getting at. Personally, I’ve concluded that there are too many factors outside of my control to warrant worrying about it too much.

I wish it was as easy as just buy $50 battery. But with a waterproof phone I don’t think waterproofing will be ip68 when I replace the battery

@plotting_homelab@lemmy.world fair enough. I’ve never made use of the waterproofing features on any phone I’ve owned. I think my previous ones didn’t even have any to being with…

This is all anecdotal, so take it as you will. At some point in the past I used to be careful to do 80–20, or even 70–30 when possible. It was usually a pain, because I didn’t get the full benefit of the battery, and I was always worried I might go above or below my targets. I still had to replace a battery after 2 years.

Then, with my previous phone, I decided not to worry about that and just charge whenever. The vast majority of the time I charged to 100% using fast charge, albeit not overnight. I had that phone for 4 years and it was only in the last year that I felt the battery had got worse. That last year was also after a big software update.

With my current phone, I’m doing 80–20 again—but more often 85–35—without fast charging. A year and half in and the battery has definitely degraded. I have easy access to a charger most of the time, and I use a software feature on the phone to limit charging to 85%, so my current schedule is easy to keep to, but if it wasn’t, it probably wouldn’t be worth it for me. I’d just accept that, worst case, I have to buy a $50 battery every couple of years to not have to worry about charge levels.

Thanks. I didn’t realise you can’t do relays anymore on the selfhosted version. That sucks…

You can set up relay nodes in the Netmaker config, and enable them only for those nodes behind NAT that need relaying. I’ve generally had good experience with Netmaker—when it works, it works—but several times it auto-updated and wiped my network config in the process.

What is your experience with Netbird vs Netmaker?

Tailscale doesn’t require you to wrestle with certs or the networking setup required to do NAT traversal. And they do it well, you don’t have to wonder whether you’ve screwed something up that’s degrading NAT traversal only in certain conditions. It just works. That said, I’ve been through the wringer already on these topics so Headscale is not painful for me.

Does Headscale require additional work to deal with NAT traversal on clients? Or is it just for the controller node itself?

For what it’s worth, I usually install Ubuntu Server instead of Debian because it comes with a few more things out-of-the-box that I would install anyway. I have several installations of 22.04 that have been upgraded since 16.04 and they work no problem. (I also have a few Debian installations working similarly well.)
