100%. Took me a good year to learn it well enough to be confident with what I was doing but I've now got it on everything with a single flake for all my hosts. I love that my user profile is configured the same everywhere. I can add a new tool or config or alias or whatever and it's the same on every computer.

I've now written a module to define all the services I self host and from that it generates both nginx config and DNS config on different hosts.

The main advantage for me though is I only have to solve problems once. Once it's there in the config I'm confident it's solved and I won't need to worry about it again. My previous server was 10 years old and there was stuff configured I'd long forgotten about how it worked or even why I did it.

Yeah I'll willing to give them the benefit of the doubt on this one. Could very easily believe that a dev added the reference without realising the implications and they fixed it very quickly. Will be watching for any future attempts though.

It is my understanding that the only difference applies to hosted software. For example, Lemmy is AGPL. If it were GPL, then a company could take the source code, modify it and host their own version without open sourcing their modifications. AGPL extends to freedoms of GPL to users of hosted software as well.

A real example of this would be truth social which is modified Mastodon and as AGPL those modifications are required to be open source as well.

yeah this is my dog. at the vet last week he knew something was about to happen and was absolutely not interested in cheese.

After he had his vaccines and it was all over, so much more relaxed, would eat cheese again.

I've worked on SCADA systems. The most the keyboard was used for was logging in then then putting something heavy on it stop the computer going to sleep. System was entirely controlled by the mouse and head office didn't consider that 1 person might be monitoring 4-6 computers on their own for an 8 hour shift and enforced a 5 minute idle lockout on all of them.

I've been using silverbullet.md

Its more notes than wiki I guess so depends what you're after.

I use restic but I switched from Borg because of the cloud features. Outside of that, there's not a lot of differences really. If you're happy with Borg keep with it.

I use audible, then download with audible-cli and decrypt with ffmpeg.
