Yes, that’s a fair point

Well KeePass

Yes, I have tested Logseq and even donate to them monthly. However I don’t use it actively. Reason is that I just can’t figure out a way to store my quotes and my opinion about them from books the same way I do it in Notion.

Basically I store my quotes like this:

Inside each quote I write my opinion or the summary of the quote in my own words, etc.

And then for the books I have it like this:

And inside each book I have the quotes linked:

So yeah I haven’t found any way in Obsidian or Logseq to replicate this structure. It’s always something simliar that’s not working the same way and feels off and only with tweaks, custom CSS and stuff like that.

Fully agree. That’s also the main reason I am using Notion even though it’s not FOSS, not encrypted etc.

I was fine using Obsidian (even though it’s not FOSS either, but you own your data) but I can’t figure out a good way to track books and quotes plus my opinion about them while querying them the same way it works in the database with Notion. Dataview is great for many things but doesn’t have pagination etc.

For me Nextcloud AIO works. Still I don’t like how “unstable” NC is. There’s always something that does not work in any setup. Wish it was more stable or there would be a better alternative. For me it’s videos. But only those that are MP4 and have their moov atom at the end of the file. They can’t be played.

It’s a headache. Set up Ente Photos just for that. Good side effect is that the images from my family and myself are stored E2EE encrypted on the self hosted Ente Photos instance.

With DS-Lite you don’t have a public IPv4. Not a static one but also not a dynamic one. The ISP just gives you a public IPv6. You share your IPv4 address with other users. This is done to use less IPv4s. But not having a dynamic IPv4 causes you to be unable to use DynDNS etc. It’s simply not possible.

You could publish your stuff via IPv6 only but good luck accessing it from a network without IPv6.

You could also spin up tunnels with SSH actually between a public server and the private one (yes SSH can do stuff like that) but that’s very hard to manage with many services so you’re better of building a setup like mine.

I had the same issue. Wrote another comment here explaining my setup to solve my ISP issue.

I had everything behind my LAN, but published things like Nextcloud to the outside after finally figuring out how to do that even without a public IPv4 (being behind DS-Lite by my provider).

I knew about Cloudflare Tunnels but I didn’t want to route my stuff through their service. And using Immich through their tunnel would be very slow.

I finally figured out how to publish my stuff using an external VPS that’s doing several things:

• being a OpenVPN server
• being a cert server for OpenVPN certs
• being a reverse proxy using nginx with certbot

Then my servers at home just connect to the VPS as VPN clients so there’s a direct tunnel between the VPS and the home servers.

Now when I have an app running on 8080 on my home server, I can set up nginx so that the domain points to the VPS public IPv4 and IPv6 and that one routes the traffic through the VPN tunnel to the home server and it’s port using the IPv4 of the VPN tunnel. The clients are configured to have a static IPv4 inside the VPN tunnel when connecting to the VPN server.

Took me several years to figure out but resolved all my issues.
