It is time to create your own distro with Linux from Scratch or Yocto. It will stay special as long as you don’t share the installer or even the repo ;-)


Typos in French version:
tandis que d’autres ne sont pas pensent que ça fait partie de l’application
GNOME mettrait évidement en place les protocoles pertinents et activerait les décorations côté serveur sur toutes les applications qui ne demandent pas explicitement le SSD.
-> CSD
Side note: after reading all this I still read Solid State Drive and wonder why Gnome want me to use Hard Disk Drive…


Really? I thought it would be Nvidia! /s

I think the article kind of touch on it but just state in the lines of “to start a new country I get a list of big cities”.


You should reach to them and ask to add your city if interested:
The cities currently covered are 2937 - growing based on new countries and requests.
Why no ones seems to remind this person that they are using a GPL V3 software? Like they say “you broke my stuff you should have fixed it within a day” while in the same time the license state (scream?) all over the place :

I would also love to know. It is not on F-Droid so I’m a bit suspicious at first. (Not all is open source? Or is it too new?)


I direct everyone to https://yunohost.org/ As you describe it your project looks very similar.


I suppose your mirror pull on a cron job?
How much space does it take to have a full mirror?


If it works for you. I have heard the advantage of screen is that you can bind directly to a Pty/serial. Would be nice for me since I sometimes needs to connect as serial instead of SSH.


I find kakoune scheme better than vim, and helix got a better default package of it. (Basically it reverse Vim’s action noun, into selection action. So that you may have multi-cursors, and see your selection before deleting it).
The downside is that GUI program may propose a VIM mode, but not (yet?) an kak/hx mode. Sad because to me it looks much more like a GUI does things.


I would recommand zellij instead of tmux or screen. For the simple fact that by default, shortcuts are sensible and the most important ones are always on screen.
It is not as venerable as the other 2, but much more easy to get into.


tar -czf <folder>
mv folder.{tar.gz,zip}


Arn’t AAA preload useless since you still needs to re-download the entire game as day1 patch anyway?
I mean I almost never buy day1, and also sporadicaly even AA games. So bringing from what I read.
Is Fennec really maintain by F-Droid? All links (even the code/repo) point to Mozilla’s official website.


Maybe you should join forces with YuNoHost. It let peoples selfhost on a Raspberry Pi or any old computer. Can be a “when I start it spare board only visible at home”.
They already have a lot of apps packages that are 1 click to install. Maybe you can discuss to propose an option in their package script to reduce network to the current machine?
The only downside to this approach is that their solution is targeted at being an entire OS. So I suspect most of the work would be to extract the app management from the rest?
One issue I have with your idea is that most open source servers/app are designed to be run on Linux right? Not every users use it on their main machine. You also talk a lot about docker… does it work on Windows? I mean WSL sounds like a nightmare to manage with script, for other peoples. From my point of view, YuNoHost solution is easy enough for a layman, and they will be happy not to break their main PC, have access from their phone, … even if only at home.


Pass thoses firewalls and other corporates proxy/VPN/… that block most ports. If what you build is at least partly used where user have internet access, you know this port is open. Even if 22, 8080 and all the others are closed.
I recently found https://f-droid.org/packages/net.canvoki.carburoid
Work we state provided data in Spain and France. I saw an issue requesting to add Italy. You may request your country too
