  • This of course presumes that you have a Synology disk station. They come in a variety of different models.

    I’m surprised at how much I’m able to serve from my device. I use it for cloud storage, file thinking across devices, photo management and backup across devices, ebook management, running a game server for my family, running an evernote-like service, etc etc.

    It’s been really good to have full control over all my information and not have to pay ever increasing fees to various companies for various services.







  • if they can’t connect for a bit, that’s fine, they can work on the local files and sync up next time I’m back on the home network.

    I suppose this is what I’m most concerned about. I currently use a similar situation for my password manager database. We have Windows and Android clients that connect to a shared database file and I feel like I’m constantly having to manually synchronize the file because it remains open so long on each client. I’d like to avoid this situation.

    Joplin can sync using files on the device filesystem

    This weekend, I’m going to attempt to get it running on my NAS and do this.

    I may also try the other syncing via cloud at the same time just to test.


  • Your experience is what i am looking to accomplish. I’d like to transfer everything Evernote to a self-hosted FOSS application I can serve on my Synology NAS. I would access my notes primarily on my phone (Android) and sometimes Windows. AFIAK, Joplin would sync to my Synology NAS where it’s hosted… so I’m a little perturbed by the additional used of Syncthing.

    Would someone explain the need/desire for Joplin+Syncthing?







  • I am unimaginably sleepy

    This.

    Loooong weekend with a very heavy Monday. My mind is frayed after work today, but I was actually able to make decent progress on something that’s been on huge stress. I feel good about that. It certainly isn’t an engineering masterpiece, but it does the job which makes me super glad! Looking forward to getting it near complete tomorrow.

    Now, I just wanna go to bed, but I promised my two youngest another (what feels like) ten million rounds of Smash Bros. 💫 😬

    As much as mushy as my brain feels in the moment, I have a lot to be grateful for. 💜

    Plus, there’s birthday cake left over from this weekend. 🤪



  • Did any of you guys try it as well? What’s your opinion?

    In respect to Lemmy as a whole, I’m trying to exercise a lot patience.

    One of the first things I did was install it as a PWA. It has a sleek UI, but some bugs makes it incredibly hard for me to use. One of the worst is an issue with several of the combo boxes which repeatedly flashing on use. I have to try hitting the appropriate selection multiple times in hopes of it eventually taking.

    I use Jerboa most of the time inspite of the many bugs, but I usually end up having to open the PWA for missing functionality.

    Like I said…

    Lots… And lots

    And lots… of patience.


  • This article lead me down a rabbit trail where, via this article: Help Save Wood Thrush: Drink Bird-Friendly Coffee

    I learned about this: https://birdsandbeanscoffee.com/

    What Is Bird Friendly Coffee?

    Bird Friendly® Coffee is Smithsonian Migratory Bird Center (SMBC) certified and represents a gold standard in ethical and sustainable coffee business.

    Bird Friendly® Coffee is coffee that comes from family farms in Latin America that provide good, forest-like habitat for birds. Rather than being grown on farms that have been cleared of vegetation, Bird Friendly coffees are planted under a canopy of trees. These trees provide the shelter, food and homes migratory and local birds need to survive.

    This morning, I’m really feeling the weight of what we are doing to the world. 😖

    But… I was encouraged a bit to see something being done and in a way I wouldn’t have thought.
