I want to selfhost my own personal website. This is just for fun, as a hobby and to show off my skills to others. nothing big.

I have my own server home but I want to have something that's separate from my personal stuff.

I do not need any support, meaning it can be as cheap as possible. I do not yet know how much RAM or CPU or storage I need. I guess CPU > 2GHz and 2GB RAM should be enough to start.

daily/weekly backup with rsync in case the hoster goes out of business.

I do not need a domain, I will use a dynamic dns hoster.

What's your take on parquet?

I'm still reading into it. Why is it closely related to apache? Does inly apache push it? Meaning, if apache drops it, there'd be no interest from others to push it further?

It's published under apache hadoop license. It is a permissive license. Is there a drawback to the license?

Do you use it? When?

I assume for sharing small data, csv is sufficient. Also, I assume csv is more accessible than parquet.

Just want to share it. Found it on fdroid.

I understand that it may be problematic sometimes but this was very smooth. I didn't even say anything.

A: what's your number for the whatsapp group Me: I don't have whatsapp because of facebook. B: ok, we have to use signal then A: ok

Neither newpipe nor libretube work for me anymore for a while now. Is there an alternative?

Edit: when using my vpn it is blocked. Without von it works fine

I'm using a pixel 6 with gapheneos currently. I'm looking for a phone that is fast enough to use osmand without the 5 second lag when it has to render all details. Any advice?

I'm diving into the concept of open/ free music. I love and live foss IT stuff and would like to move to open music as well.

Is there some notable movement? Apps? Servers like peertube but for music? How to contribute? How to follow artists/ support artists

There's a section in the free music wikipedia article which I'm currently browsing. What's your experience? How do you live with free music?

I'm not interested in using it for video production but as an end user who's part of the foss movement.

I am going to ask if I may use linux for work. We are using windows but there is nothing that couldn't be done on linux. Privately, I am mainly a fedora user but I'd be happy with any OS and DE or wm. What do I need to look out for when I suggest an OS? What does a computer/ linux/DE need in order to be ready for enterprise workstation? Will I only have a user and no sudo rights? May I install all flatpak apps? Does the admin have to be able to remote ssh?

Where can I buy linux stickers?

Probably, I'd like to get some red hat stickers. Tux is too sweet and fedora is just white and blue. A red hat is more striking.

is there a routing app/ service for canoes?

Edit: I ended up using brouter or osmand depending on the task.
