Have you tried a low-code database, such as nocodb? I tried satisfy my need for structures data that way and it works for simple usecases. There are formulas too, but they (like spreadsheets) require some knowledge to set up.

Don't thank me, thank Stallman. I stole it straight from straight him ;-)

Thank you for catching that for me!

Thanks for the suggestions :-)

I decided against arm-arch partially because RPI5 is out of stock (and I want to go with a brand name), and to avoid the extra hassle of having a HAT for a SATA driver.

As for the 8500t, I already have a SFF PC with a older CPU - but lower TPD than 8500 (but propably more noise). And I want to go lower. Also, the price difference in SEK between PN42 and those computers in your ebay link isn't that big.

Huh, I've tried booting from ubuntu and fedora sticks with no luck but ventoy would?! I'll have to try that and if it would work, my mind will be blown 🤯

This one is excellent, by university of Helsinki: programming-23.mooc.fi

Can you elaborate on your experiences so far? What's required in order to selfhost it, and what features will be missing...?

I used and paid for wallabag, but it lacks so many basic features it was a pain to use. Just trying to tag articles was a chore, since wallabag doesn't suggest existing tags.

Updated post with example.

Nocodb can run locally as it is distributed as a binary (among other formats).

Congrats on the release! Had this been made from scratch, without any underlying libraries that'll convert images to ASCII?

This is the answer. Joplin and obsidian are excellent for markdown notes, but theyr arent suitable for "jot whatever, anywhere".
