After years of using Feeder on my phone and some other random stuff on my laptop, I switched to FreshRSS on my server and the big thing is everything stays synced. My read and stared articles are all where they should be. I run fluent reader on all my devices and tailscale keeps me always connected to my reader so I can save articles on my phone when I don’t have time to read them then read them when I get home on my laptop or tablet.
Maybe it’s about Elon’s “ai.”
If you go the android route turn on Apps Only Mode in the settings. It gets rid of the home screen ads for the most part and disabled a lot of the “features” that Google tries to push.
Casting is always weird with networking like that. I’d highly recommend trying to find a way to run jellyfin locally cause nothing will really make Tailscale play nice with casting in my experience.
I’ll say that I’ve run both Kavita and Calibre+Calibre-Web. I’ve stuck with running Calibreand Calibre Web together. Kavita was great but since I read on kindle and Kavita-email never worked for me I went back to Calibre. I also prefer calibre since it lets me convert files and change the cover images.
Personally I had more issues getting kavita to work the way I wanted than I did with calibre.
I usually have 30+ tabs grouped around in chrome. I got a lot going on and it helps keep my ADHD in check when I’m trying to work on something.
I rely on chromes tab groupings. Nothing in Firefox does as good a job, but I’m getting by just fine for now.
I’ve tried firefox in the past. Back and forth I go when google does something dumb but I always go back. This time I think I’ll deal with the stuff I don’t like for now, or maybe make extensions to fill the voids that I miss desperately.
I use Kali a fair bit but even still It’s not a daily driver.
On my Microsoft Surface laptop I had a horrible experience with sleep and wake on close and open with windows. More than half the time it wouldn’t wake up on its own and I would have to either have an external keyboard or just turn it off. Currently that same laptop is running opensuse tumbleweed and wake and sleep on close and open works about 85 percent of the time. It isn’t perfect still but it’s way better than windows was.
