I had bought 8bitdo controllers before switching to Linux. Was always bummed they didn’t support Linux natively. My next controller will be the Steam controller.

This is nice to know! However, not all controllers are supported I am seeing.

The older Ultimate Controller 1 does not work in V2 unfortunately

I did however go from Windows to Arch. It wasn’t a bad experience, and using command line isn’t a big deal (to me at least.) But I am not the average Windows user. (Background in IT, for over a decade now. And I enjoy this stuff.)

So mileage may vary.

CachyOS is nice, I have used it; and I quite like it. I still use vanilla Arch for my machines outside of my steam deck.

Looking at the github for Wine-GE https://github.com/GloriousEggroll/wine-ge-custom it appears to be archived; and I can’t recall where I read it, but Proton-GE replaces that functionality (Someone please correct me if I am wrong)

I have also tested using my system Wine version (11.9) as well, and same results; can use Ultimate Software V2.

I have been toying with getting V1 working, but to no avail.

I for one, would not suggest a Windows user to go straight to Arch. An Arch derivative, maybe.

I will have a look at the Arch Wiki to see if I can contribute!

I was trying with Ultimate Software V1, and did not have the same luck.

Skillet is trash, and the front man is a tool.

I would hope so. That and the extensions.

For my homelab:

Mullvad: ~$6/month Domain: $8/year

And whatever cost for electricity for running a singular mini PC, Pi4, and my synology.

Cost isn’t much.

I currently pay for Bitwarden and self host Vaultwarden. As long as we can still use the Bitwarden app with Vaultwarden, I won’t have a problem.

There isn’t another password solution I want to use currently.

If we lose that self-hosted feature for Vaultwarden I will jump ship to a keepass compliant solution.

I’ll optimistically sit back and see what comes of this. I’m happy with vaultwarden.

I am totally in line with not agreeing with everything being a subscription. And I absolutely dont agree with subscription creep.

So I minimize what I pay for. And let me say, in no means am I defending the change in Bitwarden here. I would never.

It isn’t a realistic expectation to expect any hosted service to be free. Especially in capitalism. Someone will come along and fuck with pricing.

Not everyone has the time, knowledge, or finances to fund self hosting everything.

But to automatically assume everyone is a sheep for using a service that benefits them is a bit of a jump.

Yes, I myself value privacy, security, and the merits of self hosting as much as I can with my resources. And I have had conversations with people on these topics, and there are the folk that lack the understanding of the importance of the hill many of the folk like me stand on. So I have seen the wide spectrum of people who pay for services.

Wild take dude.

yAlL aRe ShEeP blah blah blah…

Indeed, I’d agree, it is the way I do it

I use Wireguard. For a GUI I use https://github.com/ngoduykhanh/wireguard-ui since I’m not running Wireguard in a container.

Thank you! A start was what I was looking for!

Good news is that I was playing around with DNSWeaver, and got it working with Pihole. However, this gives me incentive to move off from Pihole because DNSWeaver can’t create TXT records for tracking which DNS records it creates so that it can clean up after itself.

So now I am torn between Adguard Home and Technitium. I just wish I could find a guide for getting Technitium working to at least on par with what I have setup.

Again, thank you for your suggestions! I am contemplating switching to Adguard or Technitium from pihole. Just gotta figure out how I am gonna approach it

Oh my. I am so thankful you shared this! I will be reading up on this and testing it out likely.

Currently I use Caddy. Which I eventually would like to automate Caddy with this: https://github.com/lucaslorentz/caddy-docker-proxy

Currently I build my own Caddy based off the official image with the cloudflare plugin
