As someone who’s been wanting to test (and maybe move to Podman) in the future but hasn’t really spent any time on it, what features have Red hat removed from Podman?

This is pretty huge. NVIDIA has been the broadcom wireless chip of the modern era, causing unnecessary end-user pain and preventing every day users from migrating to Linux due to hardware that’s semi-compatible that doesn’t always work out of the box. I’ve been using AMD for their open source support for a while now, but this is a welcome change to enable others to switch - or at the very least test - a fully working Linux OS without having to fight to get things working.

Ooh silverbullet looks nice too, thanks. Link for the lazy: https://silverbullet.md/

If you’re on Firefox on desktop/laptop, check out Bypass Paywall [0]. It was removed from the firefox add-on store due to a DMCA claim [1], but can be manually installed (and auto updates) from gitlab. The dev even provides instructions on how to add custom filters to uBlock Origin [2], so you don’t have to add another extension but still get some benefit.

I plan on making it available inside my own network, not public. This way if someone makes it past my security, I at least have something that might “catch” them in the act and disable my network so I can intervene. Just another security layer.

Fair point, but do note that https://wormhole.app is just a web-client for the wormhole protocol. There’s a reference implementation and there’s - personally - a much better go-based implementation (wormhole-william) that also has a few clients built using its API:

• rymdport: A cross-platform Magic Wormhole graphical user interface
• riftshare: Desktop filesharing app
• tmux-wormhole: tmux wormhole integration
• wormhole-william-mobile: Android wormhole-william app

may not meet your requirements but have you taken a look at https://wormhole.app ?

How are you liking OMV5? Pros/cons?

I used Ubuntu for a while and distro-hopped before deciding to land on Debian. I figured major distros used it as their base for a reason. The older I get the more I appreciate the “it’ll release when its ready” approach that Debian takes. There’s no economic pressure to release with major bugs hoping the next sprint will fix most issues, like a lot of “enterprise” software. The Debian release cycle is not 100% predictable, but it is reliable. I’ve had a server go through a few major upgrades for nearly a decade before the hardware itself gave out. The OS was rock solid the entire time. Additionally, with flatpak, outdated desktop apps are no longer an issue and I use docker for hosting services.

I will admit that Debian is pretty “bland” from a fresh install, but I don’t mind that at all.
