Welcome to the rabbit hole of selfhosted note-taking apps. https://selfh.st/apps/?tag=Note-Taking

Unfortunately, this is going to be a bit of a journey. You’ll probably end up going through a few of these options until you find one that works for you and fits your workflow.

I think we can agree that most people will never need anything more than a midrange processor for average use and only overbuy due to marketing.

Speaking only for myself, I’ve become accustomed to the snappiness of higher end processors and high refresh screens. All the screens I use on a daily basis are 120hz+ and even though I don’t game on my phone, the benefits of having a high refresh rate screen has become a nice quality of life feature for me. I still have a 60hz phone that I test as a degoogled phone and the difference is quite noticeable.

A high-end processor helps drive apps at those higher refresh rates and also just as important, it can brute-force some of the less-than-well optimized open source apps I rely on to interact with my self-hosted infrastructure.

I can live with a lower-end phone but I’m willing to pay a bit more for features and performance that meet my standards.

If they stick with a Samsung manufactured 750G, it’ll be limited to the low end market. There’s nothing wrong with that but it’s not really an option for the western mid to high end market.

I don’t have any complaints with the 6 either other than the fingerprint reader being a downgrade compared to older models. I don’t plan to upgrade until the 10/10a with a TSMC tensor and hopefully major improvements in performance and efficiency. Would be nice to have more choices without sacrificing this admittedly obscure principle.

I feel like I’m limited to pixel phones since they’re the only widely available phone that doesn’t void the warranty for unlocking the bootloader. I haven’t tried roms in a few years but I like having that choice. Fairphones can be a little hard to get. Are there other options? Lineage support would be ideal.

We literally have wireshark and similar utilities available to all of us to inspect every packet of data coming in to and leaving our phones. You can install pcapdroid right now to see exactly what facebook is doing and where that data is going. This is not complicated stuff.

Now imagine the payday and notoriety that’ll go to the security research firm that is doing this kind of work on a regular basis and is able to definitively prove it’s happening. Why do you think that hasn’t happened yet?

Or how about not assuming either way and waiting for proof before believing narratives. Anything else occupies the same space as conspiracy theories.

The math on anyone always listening to everyone’s phones doesn’t add up and will not any time in the near future.

Discussion starts at 9:10 after some technical issues.

Edit: Looks like what I have is the unedited version of the link you followed up with.

I have the video but haven’t gotten around to watching it yet. Anything I should look out for?

Yup.

That should give you a good start.

If it’s something you’re really worried about, maybe something like https://github.com/NHAS/wag will help along with your secure totp app.

After having tried what seems like every available desktop rss frontend, I just settled on the freshrss mapco theme with the landscape thumbnail and dark mode via dark reader instead of the built in option.

For the article loading issues, I’d recommend full-text-rss.

Troubleshooting can be difficult. I’ll only say you’ll save yourself alot of time and energy by establishing a baseline for power usage with just the essential components necessary for boot to see what you’re working with. Then you can make better informed decisions.

Monitor CPU usage and frequencies to ensure CPU is throttling down properly. Then start unplugging hard drives, ram, nic cable to see how they affect power usage. Servethehome shows an N305 idling around 10w in a minipc without HDDs.
