Hey everyone. I'm just migrating to floorp (first time maining firefox in 15 years) and I'm wondering if there's any good workspaces extensions. I think I've tried them all, but i've found nothing that let's me handle workspaces across multiple windows the way vivaldi does.

Basically what I want is workspaces the way vivaldi handles them. You can create a workspace and add tabs to it. you can select to open a workspace in a new window so when you close the window that workspace is saved and you can reopen it whenever you want.

What I've found with the workspace extensions I've tried so far is that when you open a new window, none of your workspaces are saved, so it's like a blank workspace. Floorp has workspaces but it only works for one window at a time.

Does anyone have suggestions how I could replicate vivaldi's workspaces functionaltiy without going back to that browser?

I'd really like to use the service and in fact I wish I'd been using it forever. But I want to do it right and self host it. It's just, maybe the most complicated thing I've ever seen.

Does it require self hosting your own email server as well? If you already own a domain, does that make the process easier?

is Anon Addy the only service like this? Also I'd love to integrate with bitwarden, so when I create a new account for some website, I can automatically create a new email address. (idk if there's any reason to do this, just think it could be cool)

To piggyback further, I've been wondering if having my own domain would help me get around my double nat issue not allowing me to make reverse proxies.

Thanks in advance to the community!

Edit:

I think I have a solution! Bitwarden actually has these integrations already and it's relatively new. duckduck go just doesn't work. I tried forwardemail and that site is filled with dark patterns so you think the free account is worth a damn until you're already invested time into setting it up. At the last minute it tells you you can't use it with bitwarden on the free account. The others are at least up front about their pricing. forwardemail.net doesn't even have a pricing page. Sending emails from the masked addresses is also paywalled. pretty much all functionality on forwardemail.net is paywalled, but they hide it from you the best they can, so fuck that company.

I spoke too soon. There's no option that isn't paid. So I guess back to self hosting anonaddy

Edit: I finally got duckduckgo email working with bitwarden integration. It now generates a random email for me automatically!

Edit edit: Found a good solution:

There are two solid solutions I think for this problem: Bitwarden + SimpleLogin integration. Ends up being about $40/year. The SimpleLogin integration is more limited as it just generates a generic hash. Pass gives you more flexibility - it adds the domain followed by a hash. It's cheaper by a few bucks if you pay per year.

or

Proton Pass ($48/year, or $36/year if paying for 2 years, or if you have proton unlimited ($8/mo), it's included What' nice is that the email address alias generator is built in and has a lot more options. It's cheaper if you pay for 2 years or already have proton unlimited. Both have stellar track records.

This is the resource I've been looking for. I'm working my way through the book but it gets in the weeds really early. It's all fun and games and then chapter 4 just hits like a brick wall. Amos does a tremendous job explaining the why behind things, in a more wheels to the pavement way.

Piped

Great watch but to summarize:

• Bun beats Node/Yarn for package installation

• Somewhat better API/DX in some ways.

• Loses poorly in testing performance

• Tons of incompatibility issues/performance issues in other areas.

General summary: Just don't use Bun yet, seems like it needs some more time in the oven.

Check the comment of the gist for instructions on how to use. You can set this up to run every few minutes, keeping your readwise items, highlights, and annotations synced with Raindrop! I didn't see anything that accomplished this, even with the multitude of paid automation solutions. I was tempted to sign up for a free one when I realized they were all very flawed, so I just wrote one up for free!

Hope you enjoy! Suggestions and contributions more than welcome :)

Update (FIXED)

a dev from synology fixed it by running 'update-ca-certificates.sh' from the /etc/ssl/certs folder as root.

Not sure if he somehow moved that file into my nas manually if that's included functionality. either way it was a really simple fix that only took them like 3 weeks to address.

---- Original post -----

A couple days ago I randomly received this notification email: "System is busy and unable to deliver the diagnostic data. Please try again later." there's no info in the body. When I received the email I checked my DSM dashboard and it was unreachable, but my docker ccontainers were still running and I was able to SSH to the machine.

I tried to reset it and it didn't reset for around 20 minutes (i think maybe something to do with virtual machine manager because after logging back in and restarting, this was holding up the restart process). I restarted by holding it down until it powered down and started up again

It has been exhibiting odd behavior: I cannot access the package manager, Security advisor, quickconnect, support center, push service under notifications, sign in on the notification > email page on control panel, it does nothing, synology account section of the control panel, active insight, DSM update, all are giving me errors that imply some broken connection, certificate, or networking issue. I tried to update a docker container and I can't access the registry. It's giving me an error: "Error response from daemon: Get "https://registry-1.docker.io/v2/": x509: certificate signed by unknown authority" Trying to access synology photos from my phone also gives an invalid certificate error

I have made no changes to my router or system or anything.

I can ping all the services here from SSH: https://kb.synology.com/en-global/DSM/tutorial/What_websites_does_Synology_NAS_connect_to_when_running_services_or_updating_software

I'm worried that I somehow got attacked. I've been trying to figure out how to connect to this thing with my double nat situation which has made it impossible to access from outside without tailscale. I just don't understand what's happening. My worst fear is that maybe someone hacked in and modified my dsm install to mess with it or something. IDK.

I reached out to synology support a couple days ago but they responded with the most generic tech support questions:

you attempted to access DSM using various devices or web browsers? Are there any indications of hardware-related issues?

Are there any third-party applications or packages installed on your Synology device that might be affecting its performance?

Can you access the Synology device's interface directly, or is the problem limited to accessing DSM?

Have you encountered any recent power outages or disruptions that might have influenced the current situation?

I saw on this thread some people having errors that sound very similar but they all got them resolved around the same time

• The 3 I'm considering have 2 things in common:

  • They're open source

  • They're offline first. Meaning you'll never lose access to read or edit your notes if you find yourself without internet, in a tunnel, elevator, airplane, etc. This excludes notion and the like from this list

• They are Anytype, Logseq, and SiYuan ( a less known but still incredible PKMS)

  • please note these pros and cons are only in relation to using as a method of brainstorming and working on projects.

• FYI: Logseq is my current PKMS of choice and i've settled on it though if Anytype ever gets trasnclusion support I'll have to go back and see. Also to note: Anytype is currently free, the rest will cost you if you want to utilize syncing across devices

• Anytype

  • Pros

    • beautiful, slick interface

    • creating types allows for projects to have a more first class feeling.

      • A project can be a type with multiple templates

      • a feature can be a type with multiple templates

      • sets allow for displaying alist of projects based on what type of tepmlates, same for any type (anytype, get it?)

    • excellent layout and customizability

  • Cons

    • Major con no Transclusion. I HOPE they introduce it. my discussion on github is the highest after the docker container ask and the stuf the staff prepopulated. Looks like one of the maintainers noticed it.

  • Mobile experience

    • by far the most robust and fuck up proof mobile solution. It handled anything I threw at it and it syncs practically immediately

  • Collaboration

    • I believe this is one of their primary focuses at the moment

  • Examples

    • List of projects. Note these can be any scale - a small script, an extension to a browser, an entire program suite or OS, a physical product. Choose your own way of organizing and anytype should be able to accommodate

    • 

    • Example project main page: Note that I'd prefer to use transclusion here instead of the card previews but anytype doesn't have transclusion support. at first I wrote off the emoji/background, but it's so easy to do (only a couple of clicks) that I did it on a whim and realized I actually love it, and not only that, that little bit of imagery makes it's at least 1 million times easier to quickly identify what page you're on and bring some immediate context to the forefront of your mind. It's a little thing that makes a surprisingly big difference. Anytype uses upsplash images and you just type in what you're looking for (for this example I typed in books), and you'll find a great selection of high quality banners for your pages.

    • also note the organization here. You can have page links (here in cards with previews) as many across as you like and it's easy to arrange them that way.

    • 

• Logseq

  • this is infinite outliner first. collect and connect knowledge. Etc. For projects, it's not as robust as anytype, and while it has transclusion, it doesn't add a lot to a project page

  • This would be better for doing some very quick notes at the genesis of a project. I guess that counts as brainstorming. That said I don't feel as organized and secure as I do working on projects in anytype

  • Pros

    • great for really quick brain dumping (though that's no different than anything else on this list).

    • Transclusion support. though not as beautiful as SiYuan's, it adds about 3 indentations before beginning the actual transcluded content, something they say they're going to address at some point.

  • Cons

    • Interface was designed by engineers and it shows.

    • Feels easy to wreck things

    • has some bugs to work out

    • mobile experience is mostly lackluster and seems to be low priority

  • Mobile Experience

    • mobile is like, mostly unusable for me currently due to a bug where the text your typing scrolls down below your keyboard. so yeah you're typing blind. hope they figure that out soon as it's a breaking bug. Syncing is fairly slow - you can expect to see changes propagate between 10-15 seconds. sometimes a device will say it's fully synced when it's not, and if you don't notice that's not good. best to restart and make it goes through the full sync

  • Collaboration

    • on the radar though not currently in the works. I believe it will come some day and that there are some workarounds but nothing built in

  • Examples

    • project list

  • 

    • example project

  • 

• SiYuan

  • Pros

    • Beautiful editor and transclusion implementation

    • fastest PKMS that exists by a mile

    • can have several notes open in tabs, and it's by far the best implementation of this concept I've seen in any PKMS

    • nice visual customization in line with notion or anytype.

  • Cons

    • no sets/collections/queries. There's no project page unless you build it and update it yourself

  • Mobile Experience

    • Mobile device is probably about equal with logseq. Nothing spectacular, nothing too extremely buggy but it just feels like you're a bull in a chinashop with this. Like you have to be very careful not to break things. Still, from what I've seen, it doesn't have the same litany of bugs logseq has

  • Collaboration

    • No idea where they're at with this. I don't believe it's a priority.

  • Examples

    • This is just their tutorial landing page, but you can get an idea of the layouts and customization possible. It just looks gorgeous and it's the fastest PKMS I've used.

    • 

• Ending thoughts:

  • Mobile: Anytype wins

    • without a doubt the best mobile experience. more polished and robust. You don't feel like a bull in a chinashop like you do in logseq or even siyuan to a degree. That said, logseq still wins in one very small but very important department, and that's swiping to adjust indentation. may seem small but if indentation is buried behind several menus, it's just painful when your'e in the middle of jotting down some important notes. That said logseq mobile is broken (at least for me)

  • Collaboration: no one wins, though anytype is focusing on this

    • Most likely will have to choose another program, probably something that isn't offline first. For this there are a million great options

  • Best overall: Anytype.

    • Being able to create a type is awesome. Then having multiple templates off that type, and "collections/sets" to allow organizing lists of those projects with fairly strong filters and sorting is great. This ability, while exists on logseq, requires knowledge of some programming languages. I think called datalog. In SiYuan I don't believe it's possible. One quick sidenote about SiYuan though, it's a fantastic app and the developers/maintainers work at a blinding pace. One time I made a comment about the line spacing on their english forum, liuyun.io, and the developer answered within a few minutes stating that it was already fixed and in the upcoming version. Anything said about SiYuan is liable to change at a moment's notice (but in a good way!)

  • Best for early/initial braindump: Logseq

    • With its infinite outliner, logseq is fantastic for braindumping quick and dirty prototypes to be fleshed out more fully in another PKMS. I definitely don't think Logseq is the best for projects, but it's definitely not worthlesss

  • Best price: Anytype (for now). Anytype is free.

    • It will be free forever if you decide to selfhost. They will almost certainly add paid plan to use their synving infrastructure (which they implemented brand new for the work they're going to do on collaboration soon)

  • Privacy: Logseq, Anytype.

    • Both can avoid the company's servers completely if you set it up that way. Anytype will required self hosting which for now is not very good because to use the mobile ios app selfhosted, you need to compile through xcode and sideload it onto your device...yeah that's a blocker. Logseq is possible to avoid completely their servers, but it's a worse experience. it's hard to set up. And I believe that their syncing is locked to allow them to eventually offer a premium plan. Anytype's syncing mechanism is up on their github right now.
