Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

I usually do the expert install and don't install a graphical environment in the first place. But your solution should be fine, too. I think you can show running services with
systemctl
and then disable unneeded ones. For examplesystemctl disable gdm
but there shouldn't be that much running on a plain Debian anyways.For powersave I run
powertop
in auto-tune mode as a systemd service. A description is here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PowertopUnfortunately, the Debian Wiki doesn't seem to have a lot on laptop power saving. The Arch wiki has some more (random) info: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Power_management
I'd say do the powertop systemd service on startup, set the multiuser target or disable the login manager and that's it.
