Just wanted to say thanks for some awesome software! I want to say I use it for centralizing my bookmarks across devices, but if I'm being honest it's main use has been bookmarking Microsoft Learn articles. It's insanely useful being able to save an article, add tags, then when MS changes their docs, I can prove to myself that it really was different last week.

I had that same issue at one point. It seems to have gone away after I switched to Grayjay.

It feels even dirtier because OP bought a physical copy, that feels so much more like Adobe broke it at night and stole it.

I host way more than I probably should, but everyone should have some stuff like immich, vaultwarden, and nextcloud. I also like to host gitea and 30+ other things (check out netboot.xyz, it isn't something everyone needs but why wouldn't you want to be able to boot off the network), but that's just what some people do as a hobby I guess lol.

I'd like to see how a dry heat compares because I've always heard it was better. This past week where I'm at in the states has been terrible, triple digit heat (I think it was 102 on Wednesday) with super high humidity and ridiculous UV levels; the air is thick and like a blanket wrapped around your head the moment you walk outside. Nights have been upper 70's-low 80's, I know it could be worse (thank god for a pool and AC), but this is way hotter than when I grew up.

I know everyone has their own opinions of them but I'm a fan for what they are. Right now I have 3 of them that I've gathered over the years (one with ESXi hosting my firewall, one with TrueNas for backups, and one with ProxMox for a few LXCs).

Overall, they are great little boxes, I had three of them in my living room for years when I was renting and they were pretty much completely silent after boot. The dual core celeron that comes with it works, but can be upgraded to a Xeon e3-1265l v2 (quad core + HT) for $25-50. RAM I think maxes at 16GB, but if you want a box to run a dozen light services or so, its not a bad box (insanely quiet and pretty power efficient).

If you self host vaultwarden you won't have an SMS backup, but provided you need the code to login to something online, you can log into Vaultwarden from anywhere with an internet connection.

Like many others in this thread I love Aegis, I regularly back it up to my nas and it hasn't failed me yet, but I also selfhost Vaultwarden. Recently I've found myself copying a lot of my secrets over so if I don't have my phone, I still have a way to use TOTP.

When my paid service started giving me ads I stopped watching it. I've been paying them since before streaming and in the past couple years stopped paying because T-Mobile started paying. When T-Mobile quits paying we'll close the account.

Mine is definitely a hobby... possibly a borderline addiction. I am an IT person by day and then selfhost a bit at home. Most of my equipment is good old eBay specials (R720xd, R610), or just accumulated over the years (a few HP Microservers, RAID enclosures, etc).

The uptime is decent but my ISP isn't great, plus one of the servers has been having issues so until I find a few hours to focus on it, it is not something I would consider "acting like a paid IT".

Not to make myself sound like a bad IT person, but my homelab is held together with hope and scripts to recover when it goes down. One day I'll cluster some lower power proxmox systems with portainer and ensure everything important has a way to fail over and backed up offsite (no, I'll probably just take a nap if I get a free afternoon lol).

Sometimes people in these communities don't realize how they come off, tone is hard over text, and I'm just as bad in person (thankfully I work remote most days).

I just use the default one and put a couple folders on the home screen (one for stores, one for games, one for media, one for utility), then a couple widgets on the next screen over.
