Looks cool, although all of the examples are things I’d just do quickly once I notice it needs doing and I believe planning those might increase the work load.

But I can see a use-case for other tasks, those that I tend to forget. Might give it a try. :)

Also, I can highly recommend inwx.com, they are cheap and competent, give you lots of options and support is great. Don’t use them for hosting, though, they do it but it’s not their main business and expensive.

Do i need WHOIS privacy?

We cannot tell you what level of privacy you need.

BTW, for example .eu domains only have an emailaddress public in Whois and your preferred language. In that case I’d say there is good privacy.

Do i need SSL support?

Yes, just configure TLS for anything that you host. Letsencrypt exist, after all. It doesn’t even cost you anything.

What else should i know before committing to buying a domain

If you ever use it for email, do not get rid of it. Just in case you later need to receive an email and to stop others from receiving your emails.

Do i need to use my actual details when registering a site? I dont like the idea of anyone being able to look up my personal information just because I have a domain for a server (but perhaps thats just the price of admission)

No need to enter valid data when registering a domain. If your data is invalid, many if not most NICs will revoke the domain. They require valid data to know who the customer is.

Dino has a setting that lets users choose whether to enable E2EE by default or not. I remember when that change was introduced in 2024.

The way the padlock icon is displayed is not an embarrassing bug, it’s just an area in which UI/UX can be improved.

Also, battery will last much longer. Nowadays I have a tolino, but back when I had a Kindle, I kept it offline. I had no need for internet access. I just added books via Calibre and USB cable every now and then.

I think newer Kindle firmware requires setting up with an Amazon account at least once before it can be used offline, though.

Movim is neat. I wish it had a simple OCI image I could just start with Docker. I looked at the setup guide and it seems to require quite a bit of time, so I never got around to it.

Is Jellyfin FOSS? If not, what is good alternative?

I tried using Kodi, but found it very lacking and far too complicted to use (says the guy porting Linux to his phone for fun, lol)

I just use Debian + virt-manager.

I can either use the shell or connect using the graphical tool, via SSH. Much simpler, much less overhead.

I read that as sarcasm :D

Wow, that’s just ridiculous.

“Here’s some free software that is non-free.”

Debian. Works, proven, stable. “The universal operating system”, called that for a reason.

Yeah and English is well established, most people already know some of it.

Still, I like languages, so Latin seems interesting to me. :D

Hell no… Because the Vatican mostly uses it? So… what do they speak in hell? Klingon?

Doubtful.

Login via Microsoft can be replaced within a couple months, at most, for example.

If they’d just start, they’d get there, but they’re still just saying it is almost impossible. Will probably happen at some point, though.

France, Denmark, many other countries:

We’ll have it done in a couple months.

German government:

It’s impossible to stop using US services and if it can be done at all it’ll take like decades.
