Leben in einem Staat, bei dem du verpflichtend angeben musst, wohin du wann möchtest? Dann bitte auch jedwede Verschlüsselung bei Kommunikation und außerdem Bargeld abschaffen (ausschließlich digital und rückverfolgbar). Vielleicht noch ein digitales Sozialpunktesystem, wo andere (Arbeitgeber, Geschäftsinhaber, die KI an jeder Fußgängerampel der digitalen Verkehrsüberwachung) dein Verhalten bewerten und von welchem eine etwaige Beförderung oder Wohnungvergabe abhängt, oder ob du einen Kredit kriegst. Und solange du nichts anderes willst, als man für dich für richtig hält, keine unanhängige Justiz brauchst, deine kritischen Gedanken lieber für dich behältst, ein kuratiertes Inhaltangebot im Internet bevorzugst und darüber hinaus nicht etwa ein Uigur bist, läuft's auch insgesamt einigermaßen okay für dich.

The closest free alternative to Trello would be Planka, IMHO. It works really well (rock stable, quick, painless), is pretty and doesn't need much resources. The only thing I miss (which Trello also lacks, btw) is the ability to have subtasks in the way Jira allows them; for this, Plane or Leantime might be good candidates (I haven't used either of them yet, though).

If I were to switch from Lemmy to KBin (or vice versa), would I have to start over (e.g. create a new account there and lose all my comments etc.)? Or would it be possible to “migrate”?

Ist es okay, auf der feddit.de-Instanz eine englischsprachige Community zu erstellen?

Ich habe das einfach gemacht und komme erst jetzt auf die Idee, dass daran jemand Anstoß nehmen könnte (hoffentlich nicht)! Ich bin von Reddit reingeschwappt und habe dort typischerweise (99,7%) auf Englisch gelesen und kommentiert, weil mir die Vielfalt der Sichtweisen und (geografischen, soziologischen, …) Hintergründe so einfach eminent größer erschien. Ich fremdele noch ein bisschen mit Lemmy (usability-wise), aber das wird bestimmt noch. :-)

Ich habe beim schnellen Überfliegen zunächst "sich selbst auf den Fuß scheißt" gelesen und war schon bereit, vor dieser drastischen, aber irgendwie auch treffenden Formulierung den Hut zu ziehen.

Das ist kein Weltuntergangsszenario, sondern gesellschaftliche Realität in China. Eventuell bist du zu jung, um einzuordnen, was für massive Freiheitsbeschränkungen (insbesondere auch unter der CDU) es in den vergangenen drei Jahrzehnten gab. In jedem Fall sehr naiv. Mit der Komplexität deiner Lösungsansätze, kombiniert mit deinem ausgefeilten politischen Diskurs und überbordenden Bereitschaft zum sachlichen Austausch von Argumenten fühlst du dich bei "AfD" sicher wohl. Ach, ne, warte, die "wird sich ja selbst entzaubern", da muss man nichts tun, die scheitern an sich selbst, Demokratie besteht automatisch fort. Was, darum ging es doch gar nicht, sondern um Freiheit von Zwang, Überwachung und Repression - sorry, mein Fehler, da habe ich ja wohl das Thema nicht verstanden. Vielleicht hätte ein Politik-Studium geholfen.

The admins are probably ignorant sluts, I guess.

I added another 32GB to my 923+ recently. Looking around, I found that speicher.de (German shop specializing in RAM) offers RAM for specific Diskstation models beyond Synology's specification, and they guarantee you that it's going to be working! (They call this "overRAMing"). For the DS920+, you can find the offered RAM sizes here. I have had zero problems, my NAS now has 36 GB RAM, shows no errors or warnings, and I'll probably upgrade it to overall 64 GB sometime. And my 218+ runs with 10 GB RAM since several years without any issues or warnings. Rather the opposite: in both cases, the difference was tremendous, it felt like entirely new (much faster) devices. I can highly recommend.

[Edit: I changed the German links to the corresponding ones of their English site]

Oh, what a wonderful cat and perfect name! One of mine is called Pixel, so they'd be quite the duo... 😹

If your model is Docker-capable, there's a whole new, exciting world waiting! :-) And the site I linked to is a very good starting point for that journey, because it has many, many easy to follow tutorials.

Mir: ja.

Luckily, I have never run into anything like this, so I don't have useful ideas to offer here, unfortunately. But hopefully someone else here has a clue... What RAID setup do you use (SHR, SHR2, RAID-1, ...)?

Oh, I didn't know that one at all - thanks for sharing!

I also like the articles on noted.

This would be cool regarding the current scaling problems with too many users choosing the same instance (it would make “distributing” the load easier my making it possible to move already created, existing accounts, if the user wishes to), and also would it solve the problem if an instance is to be shut down for whatever reason, people also could “take their stuff” and go “somewhere else”. Let's see, maybe it'll be possible in the future.

Yes, it does offer importing from Trello: In a "project" (i.e. a collection of boards), after clicking the plus-button to add a new board, you can either just give it a name and create an empty board, or your can click "import from Trello". I haven't tried it, though, I'm not a Trello user (because why should I; I have Planka, haha). You can probably try out the import capability with their demo instance.

Have fun with your self-hosting adventures!

I can only answer this regarding Windows machines, but I guess it to be similar with the Mac software: The Active Backup for Business client runs as a system service (i.e. a daemon), so the system only needs to be running; your can configure, how a backup is triggered. I have it setup so that a backup happens once a day (not several times) either if the system starts, the screen gets locked or the system is idle. I can't tell when the backup is happening (there's no impact on performance and no indicator for the user), In only see it in the logs on the Diskstation. I suggest you just try it out. 🙂 And if you do, please share your results/answer here so that others in the future can benefit? Thanks.

I'm running

• a DS923+ (36 GB RAM, 2x 4 GB WD Red Plus (CMR)) in a SHR + IronWolf 4 TB (hot spare) as my main NAS and
• a DS218+ (12 GB RAM, 1x Seagate Ironwolf 3 GB, 1x WD Red Plus 2 GB (CMR) in a RAID-0) as my backup machine (in a remote location).

I have a 115j lying around which still works, but I have no use for it any longer (it was my backup machine before I bought the 923+). I might try to sell it, but I'm not sure someone would want it (although as a simple private cloud (i.e. just Synology Drive) it works okay, I guess).

I run some services (Gitea, Planka, Portainer, airsonic, Penpot, Stirling PDF, Homebox, Benotes, speed tracker) and want to get either Plane or Leantime for project planning (as Jira replacement). I'm also still trying to get Wallabag to run and want to take a closer look at Omnivore and Joplin, as I'm still looking for a good read-it-later solution.

Oh, I'm sorry to hear that. Well, since it's a SHR (or RAID-1), you shouldn't have suffered date loss, right, so at least it's merely a inconvenient thing, having to replace it, not a severe problem.
