Hi there, simply looking for alternatives to Canva. I use this to make quick and easy presentations for Uni. But would like to find opensource alternatives. I am aware of the Libre and OpenOffice Suites ofc, but are there any other ones more similar to Canva?

Appreciate any suggestions.

I think at this point we all know that there is only one thing that can help performance whilst gaming, and that is RGB babyyyyy! 🔴🟢🔵

Hi there!

I'm trying to set up two services (through docker) both of which use port 8080 by default. However I am wanting these to services to sit behind a VPN using Gluetun. I added both of the ports I want to use to the compose file, but this just leads to only one of the services working as the other one will say "port already in use". How can I strictly tell these services what port they shall use in the compose file?

This is how I did it so far;

docker-compose.yml

***
version: '3'
services:
  vpn:
   image: qmcgaw/gluetun:latest
   container_name: vpn
   restart: unless-stopped
   cap_add:
    - NET_ADMIN
   environment:
      - VPN_SERVICE_PROVIDER=custom
      - VPN_TYPE=wireguard
      - VPN_ENDPOINT_IP=####
      - VPN_ENDPOINT_PORT=####
      - WIREGUARD_PUBLIC_KEY=####
      - WIREGUARD_PRIVATE_KEY=####
      - WIREGUARD_PRESHARED_KEY=####
      - WIREGUARD_ADDRESSES=####
   devices:
    - /dev/net/tun:/dev/net/tun
   ports:
    - '8080:8080'
    #VPN
    - 8888:8888/tcp
    - 8388:8388/tcp
    - 8388:8388/udp
    - 8000:8000/tcp
    - 8584:8584
    - 8585:8585
   volumes:
    - /docker/appdata/gluetun:/gluetun
  sabnzbd:
    image: lscr.io/linuxserver/sabnzbd:latest
    container_name: sabnzbd
	network_mode: container:vpn
    volumes:
      - /docker/appdata/sabnzbd/data:/config
    restart: unless-stopped
  qbittorrent:  
    container_name: qbittorrent  
    image: linuxserver/qbittorrent:latest
    restart: unless-stopped
    network_mode: container:vpn  
    volumes:  
     - /docker/appdata/qbitorrent:/config

To get it out of the way; Obviously, yes this chromium and most of us agree that anything Firefox-like is the way to go. This post is not a "Vivaldi is better than xyz", this is a, "give it a try" type of post. So, hear me out fellow privacists.

Edit; Yes Vivaldi is not open source, but it is source available. This topic is talked about in the interview and I encourage anyone who is discouraged to at least hear the CEO out when during the talk he had with Techlore.

• "We don’t track you. Nothing, zero, zilch."
• Incredible customization and flexibility
• Hands down the best tab management out there.
• Equally great on mobile (also check the high reviews)

I recently downloaded this Vivaldi Browser based on this rather good and open interview between Techlore and Vivaldi CEO.

So this is a browser developed in Norway, and to my surprise this was a super pleasant experience! The browser is very very fast, its super customizable and has hands down the best tab management I've ever tried (seriously wish Firefox had this). It also has some really a neat shortcut system for quick access to different actions. Furthermore they seem to care about all linux distros, with support also for ARM.

I've only used the browser for a few days, but the experience is so fluent I just had to share a post about it. The team seem really genuine and open. There are also no third party investors involved with Vivaldi. It is owned by all the employees.

So if you need or want to try a fresh browser I highly highly suggest to give Vivaldi a try: https://vivaldi.com/

What's the easiest way to get https while still using my given tailnet as domain for accessing stuff? The tailscale documentation suggest to download certs to the server and point each service to those certs, but that seems like more work than it should..?

Is a reverse proxy the best option? Or what do people who use tailscale as vpn for their devices use?

I need to point certain services out and accessible to family members, will do this through funnel feature in tailscale, but want https set up before pointing anything out.

Appriciate any suggestions ✨

Hello good nerds,

I'm still in the distrohopping era and have decided to go for Tumbleweed as my second distro after running Garuda as my first distro. I recently came across Hyprland, and it looks rather nice and fluent. Got a few questions:

• Does anyone have any prior experience to installing Hyprland on OpenSuse?
• Is it better to run KDE for this or GNOME?
• Is Hyprland overrated? Are there any other alternatives?

Thanks for any insights!

Hey there, I'm a long time firefox user and have never ever had any problems with firefox. But after the latest update, the browser will now just randomly freeze and it happens very often. It will freeze for over a minute at the time, making it impossible to use the browser. I've refreshed firefox as suggested on their websites, I've reinstalled but still all the same. Anyone got any suggestions to what I can try? Or anyone else experienced the same thing?

Edit: Using Garuda Linux

Solved: It's not firefox, it's Garuda issues. Thanks for the tips and tricks everyone gave 🙌

Heya, so I have now recently set up a bunch of different services on my debian server. Wondering if anyone has any suggestion to any applications I can host to view disk usage - cpu/gpu performance, fans, etc etc.. basically a nice and clean UI over the hardware. Already working on setting up a homepage for viewing the health of my docker containers, but need something for hardware level. 10+ bonus points if someone could mention an app that I can mange my other disks with, as in format, partition etc.

Thanks for any insights as always 🌻

Context; So... Just bought a brand new TV and life is good, but I should have done more research before buying it. I primarily want to use PLEX for watching media on the TV. However, due to "smart TV's" not being smart and being rather slow because most current TV operating systems are either bloated or just riddled with ads.

Question; So Plex is there, but it runs very poorly. What are the best options out there to get this running smoothly? Are the only options AppleTV and Amazon Firestick? Anyone been in this boat before that have any tips-n-tricks to share?

Ps. I hate ads, so the Firestick is of off the charts.

Much appreciated

So, I am thinking about getting myself a NAS to host mainly Immich and Plex. Got a couple of questions for the experienced folk;

• Is Synology the best/easiest way to start? If not, what are the closest alternatives?
• What OS should i go for? OMV, Synology's OS, or UNRAID?
• Mainly gonna host Plex/Jellyfin, and Synology Photos/Immich - not decided quite what solutions to go for.

Appricate any tips :sparkles:
