Whatever you interpret that as since my main goal here is to seed conversation, but the thing that I was thinking of when asking was a web gui with some live stats, doing some simple maintenance stuff, maybe manage or glance at docker/podman status and other services, etc.

Since I’ve seen some conversations about documenting setups so they can be picked up and troubleshot by someone else unfamiliar with the setup like a family member, I expected it would be common to lower the friction for basic maintenance but seeing the amount of ssh comments makes me think otherwise, maybe more people use their servers exclusively for personal entertainment than I expected.

My laptop needs reliability to be fairly certain I’ll have everything working when I use it on poor internet, my desktop is always comnected to high bandwidth and has a decent cpu so I can spare a bit extra time and cycles on updating everything when something breaks

Different needs

I did like having the same thing going on on both for the couple months I used mint on both.

Anyone knows of a google lens translation alternative? I use it to share memes with a friend who doesn’t know English without having too manually replace text (these days it’s pretty good with context).

Ideally I would love to self host a thing that would do that, I don’t think it would be too complicated to vibe-code some self hosted translator plugged into a image to text reader/replacer or however you’d call that… But the fact that it sounds simple to vibecode makes me think it either already exists or is way more complicated than it sounds.
