How do you use code server? I mean do you store the code locally anyway? and how do you run apps while developing?
Code server can be installed on a VPS with a domain pointing at it. That way vscode can be used directly in the browser. The code isn't stored locally, rather it's on the server where code-server is installed.
This is similar to vscode.dev but vscode.dev entirely runs in the browser and has limited capabilities.
Present versions of vscode these days have a tunnel feature included which allows to access vscode with a link.
The apps are run directly from the shell that is the vscode terminal.

I’m curious, why exim over postfix nowadays? When I looked at exim years ago, config felt overly complicated vs postfix so I’ve been with postfix for at least 10 years now. Maybe it’s changed?
The thing is it's incredibly flexible, and I don't think I could implement my current setup with anything else. Most of the mail routing information is actually stored in LDAP and replicated to the MX servers that way, so all the MXs have complete and equal knowledge about mail filtering and mail routing (i.e. which domains and accounts get forwarded to which backend server, which senders get blocked, or mailing list mails actually get routed to a different backend account).
And, of course, I have been using exim for about 25 years now, so why would I change?
Sure, postfix might be easier to set up for simple cases, but is it still that less complicated once you have implemented all current email best practices? How many additional packages do you need on top of postfix compared to what exim can do out of the box?

This is the real thing. You're comfortable with it ( and that's cool ). ;-)

Kutt seems nice, I've been using my own URL shortener, no GUI, no DB, just three (3) lines on htaccess file, an index.php and the ini file where: lowendspirit="https://lowendspirit.com/" means https://www.alexgoldcheidt.com/go/lowendspirit
Cons: no link analytics.

Does anyone know a nice app to monitor releases on Github and Docker Hub? I tried Alerthub but it seems buggy and doesn't have a UI.

Anyone knows alternative to Wallabag?
Cannot fetch contents from some sites.
I like to archive some tuts out there.
Fwiw I use "hosted" solution archive.org for my term papers some times. You can even save your saves to your account to quickly find them again. I don't see them disappearing any time soon either.
If I misunderstood and wallabag isn't smth like Archive then nvm

Yes, you are right. I need something like archiver.
Can my archive set as private?
Shiori seems like a Bookmark Manager only, nlt archiver.
I find raindrop.io is quite okay but it is nor self hosted.
I'm guessing you read the description from the repo. It is just like wallabag and can archive links and not just a bookmark tool. I'm running an instance.

I think all collections and saved articles are technically accessible by anyone who is browsing their site. However, that of course doesn't mean everyone is looking for the 64mb ram natvps article you saved. Also, what's the harm if the tutorials you were going to save can also be accessed by other people. Shouldn't be a problem I assume

Maybe this is the problem with Wallabag crawler/Agent.

You would have to test that. Sometimes saving fails, but it's on a page by page basis (at least for me).
About 5% of pages I tried to save failed, I guess.
I tried it but it doesn't save the content, only metadata
Whenever I open an article from shiori, it displays like -
I went back to the directory /data/shiori to see if stored the data but to my surprise it is empty. I have saved couple of heavy links with text and images.

For those with a Raspberry Pi: quake on LAN and its Berryboot image.
Cool, which image?
Intent is to use K8s but right now am learning the Podman underpinnings.
