  • Thank you everyone for all your suggestions! I’ll quickly try to summarize them for myself. So what you suggest is:

    Operating Systems:

    • NixOs
    • Debian 12
    • ElementaryOS
    • mint
    • PopOs
    • EndevourOS
    • Fedora
    • arch
    • Opensuse
    • Novara

    Tiling Window Manager:

    Recomended to use something based on wayland.

    • hyprland (can be configured from file, good compatibility with nix)
    • sway (proposed with Debian, multiple suggestions, config via file as well, good for custom keybindings, already options for sway in nixos)
    • i3
    • bspwm
    • KDE Plasma
    • dwm / dwl

    Status Bar:

    • swaybar (in case of using sway)
    • waybar (when using wayland)
    • eww
    • ags
    • KDE neon

    Package Managers:

    • flatpack
    • brew (is this already stable enough?)
    • Nix (obvious choice if nix os chosen)
    • snap
    • (pacman if arch)
    • integrated one

    Packages:

    • together with wayland alacritty or kitty
    • foot
    • Yakuake
    • suckless

    At the moment I am trying to avoid anything where RedHat is involved. Not because of the recent controversy, but simply IBM is known to kill their software solutions on a whim. (although i still use ansible), so Fedora is unfortunately out (again, no judging on how great it is). I’ve been quite interested in EndevourOS, so that might be fun to try out. Debian for the desktop probably not right now. I’m running it on servers for stability, but for a desktop environment, i prefer having more recent packages (e.g. neovim). The “sales pitch” for Mint sounded pretty interesting as well. However i’ll give NixOs a try first, simply because it was mentioned very often, same with sway.

    Based on this i’ll try out these combinations first:

    1. NixOs with sway and eww
    2. NixOs with hyprland and waybar
    3. NixOs with dwl and ?

    If this does not satisfy, i’ll look into endevourOS and mint, but that might require some Ansible I assume.

    Thank you very much!




  • I don’t know how the code is currently working, but I like this feature idea and would suggest to start very simple and proceed from there.

    For example you could: a) Make a list of communities that are siblings with their id and instance b) add a toggle to view sister community posts yes /no c) query all communities, list the last x posts from each with time constraints, e.g. not older than 1 day or hour depending on the community post frequency d) list them sorted by time of x , depending on what was chosen

    The biggest issue I see with this simple approach, besides others, is that different communities are different in terms of activity / post frequency. So ideally the better, but more effort, way would be to let each community instance communicate their posts themselves via a query with activity metric parameters. Basically the amount of returned posts would depend on common parameters set by the most active instance.

    It’s not yet thought out, but just getting an mvp started and test the waters would probably be better than having it perfect right away while working on it for months



  • Thanks for the hints, this definitely helped, however it did not solve the issue.

    What i did:

    1. I changed via omv-firstaid the omv port from 80 to 8081.
    2. I confirmed with ss -ltn that this change was successful and i see the listening port 80 vanished, while this now popped up:

    State Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address:Port Peer Address:Port

    LISTEN 0 511 0.0.0.0:8081 0.0.0.0:*

    1. I tested locally via ssh from the pi the connection via curl http://mylocalip:8081/ and it works, i get the html back
    2. I tested from my laptop (connected to my router via WiFi, where the raspberry is meshed into via the repeater in between) and i still get the timeout.
    3. I tried tunneling again via ssh ssh -L 8081:localhost:8081 pi@raspberrypi.local and i did not get any errors this time. However when i open the local url in the browser i get a connection reset and my terminal shows me channel 3: open failed: administratively prohibited: open failed. However this just says that TcPForwarding is disabled, which is fine, so that tunneling issue should not be the main problem, i assume.
