Thought I'd create a distinct thread from the previous one asking about daily use, because I really do want to hear more on people's pain points. Great to know people are generally sounding pretty positive in those posts who recently switched, but want to know your difficulties as well! This way old and new users can share their thoughts, hopefully to inspire a respectful discussion.

Curious on the experiences of those recently migrating to Linux from Windows 10, Intel-based MacOS, etc. How is it being on Linux? Anything surprise or frustrate you?

I realize my options are limited, but what about any robots.txt style steps? Thanks for any suggestions.

Join in on the DURP Challenge, where you finish a project you are otherwise ignoring for the Winter season. Putting this out as part of Linux Prepper podcast, which is a DIY and technology-focused show on struggling to accomplish things while still enjoying life.

Keep in mind you are welcome to submit any sort of project you are otherwise putting off! I'll be happy to share them on the show once we hit Spring. This gives you a solid three month window to get it together! 100% completion is not required, but you'll share whatever progress you have made.

The challenge is simply about clout, and sharing in what we've accomplished, over any actual prizes. If you've already finished a project in the recent past and want to proudly share it, that is fine!

HAKboard, a comprehensive Home Assistant integration for Kanboard, a free and open source Kanban project management tool.

• Roadmap
• Repo
• Screenshots

Features:

Interactive Lovelace cards

Integrates project, task and people data into sensor entities

Documented entity schema aids in dashboard and automation development

Supports multiple instances, enabling blue/green deployment

Configurable replication and project filtering settings per Kanboard instance

Zero YAML editing required

Functionality:

In this initial release, it is a one-way sync of Kanboard data into HA, with deep-linking to Kanboard projects from the HA dashboard. It will create an entity for every project that provides aggregate data for tasks, task status, assignees, columns etc.. giving you an excellent birds eye view of your environment, as well as the ability to create automations from the sensor data.

A very near release (see Roadmap in the repo) will introduce the creation of entities for each task and person, and likely others. We wanted to ensure the core entity generation system is rock-solid before opening it up to potentially thousands of new entities and thought it prudent to stagger this functionality.

If you use Kanboard (or want to try it), this turns your HA dashboard into a real-time project hub.

Repo & Docs: https://github.com/aktive/hakboard

⚠️ IMPORTANT INSTALL NOTES: I'm still working through the HACS repo approval process. In the meantime, please follow these instructions if you would like to install (existing Kanboard server required):

HACS > ⚙️ (Top right) > Custom Repositories > Add: https://github.com/aktive/hakboard as type Integration

Configure your Kanboard instance via Settings (Bottom left) > Devices & services > Add (Bottom right) > Search for HAKboard

NOTE: If HAKboard does not appear (either as an integration or a dashboard card), please refresh your browser or restart HA.

Since it is not designed for individual selfhosters, I'm wondering if any groups are actively attempting to run it together? Idea sounds cool, but I'm wondering about practical execution.

Genuine question, so please don't be mean to whoever responds. Better to learn than to judge.

Curious if people who are on Cloudflare are considering any selfhosted alternatives? If not, interested to hear what is a deal breaker in regards to using a service besides Cloudflare. I do hear a lot of praise for Cloudflare when facing DDOS, and always happy to learn more!
