Yes it is correct. TLDR; threads run one code at the time, but can access same data. processes is like running python many times, and can run code simultaneously, but sharing data is cumbersome.

If you use multiple threads, they all run on the same python instance, and they can share memory (i.e. objects/variables can be shared). Because of GIL (explained by other comment), the threads cannot run at the same time. This is OK if you are IO bound, but not CPU bound

If you use multiprocessing, it is like running python (from terminal) multiple times. There is no shared memory, and you have a large overhead since you have to start up python many times. But if you have large calculations you can do in parallell that takes long time, it will be much faster than threads as it can use all cpu cores.

If these processes need to share data, it is more complicated. You need to use special functions to share data, like queues and pipes. If you need to share many MB of data, this takes a lot of time in my experience (10s of milliseconds).

If you need to do large calculations, using numpy functions or numba may be faster than multiple processes, due to good optimizations. But if you need to crunch a lot of data, multiprocessing is usually the way to go

if i remember correctly, i just replaced gitea with forgejo for image: in my docker-compose, and it just worked

it was a couple of versions back, so i don’t know if that still works

Which apps are you testing?

I set up minio s3 for testing myself, but found that most of my docker services doesn’t really support it. So I went back to good old folders

I am not thinking of the most recent versions.

The query system was updated, around version 0.6 if i remember correctly. I don’t think the updates were bad, but some things broke and I am too old for “bleeding edge”. The template system was also updated at some point

I don’t have a great solution. I use syncthing to keep notes local on all devices and MarkText on desktop and Zettel Notes on android.

what i really liked about silverbullet was that it had offline support. but there were made some changes there as well along the way, and for me it became less stable after it became optional. But I haven’t actively used it for some time. I still got an instance running tho

How do you like the newer versions? I liked it in the beginning, but then there were breaking changes and new concepts and it started to feel a bit too complicated. So I am taking a break until things cool down

I don’t use multiple users or ldap, but miniflux supports many users. And based on this pull request it seems to have the necessary interface for ldap?

https://github.com/miniflux/v2/pull/570

I enjoy and recommend miniflux for rss reading. I have used it for a long time now together with flux news android app. I also use save integration with wallabag sometimes.

I use proxmox and proxmox backup server (in a vm). I reinstall them both, and re-add lxc and vm and their drives from backup. has already worked once.

important files are additionaly synced to laptop and phone using syncthing.

proxmox backups (which are encrypted) are rcloned to backblaze for offsite backup

dovecot provides a proper shared imap server. But not all email clients allow moving emails between accounts (gmail and local email server), but Thunderbird does.

I can access the emails from any client

Not sure if it fits you, but personally I have set up a self hosted dovecot instance where i have moved old gmail emails to, using thunderbird as the client.

I use syncthing to copy important files between pc, phone and proxmox server. Syncthing can be set up with version control so it keeps old versions of files.

Only the proxmox server is properly backed up though. to a proxmox backup server running in a VM on said proxmox server. the encryptred backup files are copied to backblaze using rclone

Not sure if this is what you are looking for, but it works for me.

TLDR syncthing for copies between local machines, and proxmox backup server and backblaze for proper backups

You could take a look at one of the universal blue distros next time you want to try some linux https://universal-blue.org/

I use bazzite on my gaming pc and bluefin on my laptop. It is immutable linux, but the devs made the defaults really nice (for me at least)

I use miniflux. To read the feed I use Flux News on android. I don’t read the whole feed in the reader, but open the link

I think miniflux supports downloading the source, but I had to do it manually each time when I tried

https://miniflux.app/

https://f-droid.org/packages/de.circle_dev.flux_news/

I have used them since januar 2019, and I don’t have any complaints. I have only needed to restore backups once - it worked as well as could be expected.

Any issues with backups have always been on my side

I use dovecot for this. And thunderbird to actually move/archive the emails. I use caddy for many of my services, so I have pointed dovecot to caddys certificates (for “my.domain”), since it manages certificates through let’s encrypt. I had a plan to install postfix for sending internal emails from my self-hosted services, but it seemed like a bit of configuration and I got busy with other stuff

I made an excerpt from my docker-compose.yml, but you probably have to figure out some things on your own

I use Kvaesitso and have been using it for a long time now.

I wanted a search-based launcher with support for widgets. I was missing some features in the beginning, but I must admit I have forgotten what they were - so I guess that is a good sign 👌

Likes: Good search, OK widget, main screen can be as clean or dirty has you want

I am using a terramaster d6-320 connected with usb-c.

It has been running zfs disks for proxmox via a geekom a5 mini pc since February. It has lost contact with the drives twice so far, more than a month between each time so I don’t know the cause. I am mostly happy with the setup, but of course it is annoying when it fails

I might miss your target, but have you considered tasks.org android app + caldav?

I have been using silverbullet the last few months, but I struggle keeping up with its updates (too bleeding edge at the moment). I has a lot of nice features like all markdown, queries and templates.

Now I am back to tasks.org app + radicale self-hosted caldav server. For tasks it flows so well on android. for windows you need to use something that supports caldav, like thunderbird.

When silverbullet matures and if it is still fast and offline, I might go back. It has a lot of nice stuff going on. I still use for stuff like recipes and travel lists

I used it for a few years, but it broke a few times, and I had to search online and find an occ command to fix it. It also could break if you didn’t upgrade regularly and skipped versions. Or you upgraded too quickly before a bug was hotfixed.

Maybe it is better now, but I looked into alternatives and found syncthing to be awesome (after I switched from iphone to android). I use samba share for cold storage. Syncthing can take a lot of space since it syncs all the files to all units

I ended up with syncthing + the default gallery app on my samsung galaxy phone. It works well for me.

But I don’t have a crazy amount of images, the phone storage needs to be large enough.

I just bought one, but I haven’t set it up yet. But it looks like it will fit me nicely based on apalrd video https://youtu.be/qML-ct2dGvQ
