FOSS remote camera control and fine art printing software is top of my agenda currently. Got a few avenues of enquiry but any recommendations would be welcomed, particularly on the printing side. I’d also like to become expert at using my current programs, especially GIMP and Ardour, for my own use but also so I can teach others.

I want to learn stenography, but haven’t really got to buying a keyboard designed for it. I also want to host an EteSync server, but the HTTPS thing has been a bit of a headache for me and I’ve mostly just left it sitting there.

There are alternatives if you want to host your calendar and contacts and sync them securely. You could use Radicale and put a reverse proxy in front of it (Nginx Proxy Manager makes it easy to set up and easy to get and renew certificates).

Thanks! I might use that, since I do already have Nginx Proxy Manager set up.

There a few things I’ve wanted to try for a while, but haven’t gotten around to it.

AstroJS (I’ve tried it, but only half-arsed)… It’s cool, but the lack of native react support scares me…

Cosmic DE… Still waiting for the alpha.

Python. It’s a good language, I’ve spent some time learning it, I’m just failing to find a use case for it atm.

Textual (Python framework). It’s really cool, but OOP scares me.

The first thing that came to mind when I saw the question is perhaps a bit of a weird answer–but I really want to learn SELinux. It’s completely overkill for my Linux desktop and the few services I run on my network. The same with OpenLDAP, I want to play around with it even though I have no real need for it with my setup, I just haven’t gotten around to it yet.

On that note, I also feel like I want to learn Ansible, or some other configuration management tool. The thing is, I haven’t even played around with it (or any others) enough to really even get what the intended use case is. I’m looking for ways to manage policies and configurations across multiple machines in a common way, but it feels like the more common use case is deploying webapps. So while it’s on my list of things I want to learn I don’t even have sufficient background at the moment.

Then, finally, the other thing that came to mind was timeshift–or really BTRFS snapshots in general. It would be nice to have that additional feeling of safety while playing around with my systems.

My TV. *arr stilll not set up and the gaming rig is still in its planning phase.

Same, niri. Want to move away from hyprland for so long. Also Emacs but I don’t want to spend months configuring.

Also a foss android distro, but I can’t find one for this phone.

there are also lots of other things like common lisp, Redox OS, cosmic desktop, trying to make my own compositor, rope science, activity pub, webtransport, bevy, ecs, and much more.

Also I stopped Using Emacs… because it’s very slow

I’ve been using a mix of Emacs and Neovim and plan to switch completely to Neovim when I have replicated enough of my Emacs config to be comfortable in Neovim. And speed is the main reason why.

Also, qutebrowser. I want to use it but it lacks workspaces support and as a self proclaimed tab hoarder I need my workspaces. I’m also still looking into a pasword manager for it (though I can always just use Bitwarden as an app)

Virtual Machines, but I’m too dumb to figure it out.

What are you using instead of emacs? I’m very happy with my doom emacs setup and it doesn’t feel slow at all imo

Nano. Everything except nano and its forks is weird and bloat.

moonlight ,

Have you tried neovim? More powerful than nano, but still super fast.

I’m not talking about performance but learning curve and unnecessary features. I don’t really want to learn any key bindings or a whole new ecosystem just for a text editor I use to edit a config once a month.

Also that comment was sarcastic.
