On principal I don’t use cloud-based password management solutions like this, but Proton Pass does make it somewhat tempting, especially since I have a Proton Unlimited subscription anyways. KeepassXC + syncthing do well enough, but PAM integration would be kind of nice some days when I’m opening and closing my vault a ton.
Areweideyet is super out of date. It shows that rust is pretty IDE at this point, but the ecosystem has changed quite a bit. Most notably racer has been replaced by rust-analyzer basically everywhere, and most code editors can trivially hook into it for extensive LSP support.
I’m debating making a PR to update stuff but the maintainer looks pretty inactive. Also the changes would either be pretty extensive or replacing the whole thing with “yep.”
Ruff is super nice, the speed increase means that I no need to wait a second after saving a file to make sure my linter or formatter don’t confuse me.
Python packaging is kind of a mess where each tool that solves a problem also feels like it bogs down the process. It doesn’t help that I need multiple tools to manage both my python and package versions. It sounds like uv isn’t far enough along for me to bother with yet, but it also has a goal and team behind it that make me optimistic that this isn’t just another packager to throw on the pile.
I’ve been using Obsidian lately. Proprietary with an open plugin ecosystem. Works well, makes it easy for me to integrate with other notes and such, but I haven’t figured out a good workflow for exporting work for submission. That said, it’s all markdown and there are lots of plugins for stuff like that, so it’s probably mostly just that I haven’t tried very hard.
In the past I’ve used Google Docs (proprietary), Scrivener (proprietary), Manuskript (open), Zim (open), and probably a few I’m forgetting. Really it just comes down to what you’re looking for out of the software, there are lots of options.
The biggest thing to keep in mind from a self-hosting perspective is local storage and easy backups under your own control. I use syncthing to keep my whole Obsidian vault synced across a few devices; for some software that’s easier or harder due to file formats and accessibility.
I’m surprised there aren’t more people listing game servers here. A good chunk of my networking knowledge just comes from hosting game servers and fighting routers in my teens and early adulthood.
Unironically my two favorite sauces for fries. I attribute a not insignificant portion of my weight gain pre-COVID on slathering cafeteria fries with too much mayo.
