What webapps do you selfhost that aren't media/game servers? in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

Whoogle, a meta-search that strips away all the nasty things from Google. Can't live without it tbh.

Comparing yourself to others is a sure way to be unhappy. Instead you could compare yourself to your past self.

Over planning can be a problem indeed. You gotta keep it simple and real. I use markdown files (plain text) and vim (text editor).

Habit tracker with all self-care tasks is the way to go for me. I use a template with my daily tasks which is easy to edit. Every day in the morning I add those tasks to my daily tracker and go about ticking each one of it. I have a goal of 6000 self-care tasks per year and with some scripts I can easily track the percentage I've completed. I also use the habit tracker for my hobbies.

Every day I update my habit tracker several times a day and have been doing it for almost 4 years. It has helped me immensely. In the past I felt sometimes it was a chore, but knowing how much I've done through the days help me keep grounded.

Can I self host a VPN that sneakies through the China firewall? in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

I don't know if it will work, but it's possible to tunnel all your traffic through a VPS using SSH and a piece of software called sshuttle.

Does journaling really help to maintain a profound psychological state? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

Journaling is OK but what really keeps me grounded is an habit tracker. Without it my life is pure chaos.

password-store is a CLI app to store passwords and even supports OTP.

Whoogle is a meta search (still uses Google search) that takes the bloat off.

Matrix is a decentralized and secure messaging platform.

For email I have a vps (costs less than protonmail) and use Maddy.

There are a few good firefox alternatives, I use waterfox on my phone and floorp on my Linux PC.

Saves for some systems are not stored in the Emulation/saves folder (lemmy.world)
 

I learned now about the export/import tool, but this wouldn't help me anyway since my steamdeck couldn't boot neither of the 2 boot environments.

After reinstalling the OS and emudeck I noticed some systems still had saves but others didn't.

I dig into it and found that the save folders for thoses systems were just links to the home partition. Since I lost my OS and had to reinstall I also lost the data on my home, including those saves.

I would expect the saves to be all in the Emulation/saves folder on my SD card so I could easily reinstall the whole system without loosing them.

It seems the easiest way out is to create symlinks from the SD card to the home partition, not the other way around. First one needs to move the folders to the ad card.

The emulators I use and don't save directly to the SD card are:

retroarch

riujinx

citra

Ppsspp

dolphin

When I find motivation I will write a shell script to make the links for me and move things around.

The export/import tool wouldn't even be needed if the symlinks were correctly created, with that said, probably the emudeck team found problems with that approach (the folders must be moved and links created after the emulator is installed), but I don't see how that approach wouldn't work on Linux.

Thanks emudeck team for automating playing retro games on my steamdeck, your work is really appreciated.

Would be nice to have all the saves stored on my SD card.

Leaving game demos playing on the tv while doing other things (lemmy.world)
 

Is it just me, or do you also leave your snes/emulator running a game while you do other things? I find it relaxing listening to the sounds and having demos played on the tv. Sometimes I leave Super Mario Kart all day long :)
