I 100% agree, and hope that remains to be an option. But also… things can change, and they can change fast. We are all only a few days of missed meals or missed mortgage payments from having very different standards.

The problem is, while you and I have a problem with that, billionaires don’t.

So I know i’n replying to this late - but I know Obsidian has a couple of Journaling plugins, Diarian in particular is made to emulate DayOne.

I haven’t used DayOne since I was on a iPhone 4 so it’s been a while but would be worth checking out if you haven’t found a good option yet.

This is interesting as I’ve not even heard of Floorp and alternatives have been such a hot topic the last month between manifest v3 and firefoxes updated terms fiasco.

Can I ask, what for you had you opt for floorp vs the more commonly mentioned alternatives like Librewolf, Waterfox, etc.?

There is an Organic Maps ios app which I use to mostly good effect. Occasionally have to fall back to Google maps and then I make a note to update OSM with the details missing where possible later.

Thanks so much for sharing this Bookwyrm is on my radar to try (currently use storygraph). I’ve been looking for ways to contribute to the open source community as a non-coder so def going to check out bookbrainz. Freedom of information is one of my biggest passions and this goes hand in hand with those goals as they form the backbone of meaningful archival efforts.

Thanks so much for the reply, I’ll give it a download to play with it - I certainly am a big fan of simple!

This looks great. Thanks so much for your work on this and sharing with us.

What in your opinion sets your software apart from the other options you mention?

I have recently setup dockers for plex, immich, nextcloud and paperlessngx but have yet to look at longterm maintenence inc. things like auto updates (I know to avoid on immich).

As someone who prob knows the options inside and out - would you recommend your option to this relative newbie or do you think one of the other options might be a better place to start?

Ah I’m envious… Mine is only 2 and there is a lot less interesting stuff going on with Duplo 😅

Do it! I cannot stress how much fun it is to discover that your handful of sets can also be built into a dozen other cool things. Especially if you struggle to come up with amazing ideas yourself, the more sets you find you can build, the more you’ll learn.

On that note - if you haven’t played with Lego since you were a kid like I did … you are about to be blown away by how cool some of the build techniques are and what they can accomplish.

For me it looked like tupperware city… Every old plastic container I could find.

This was helpful to me although says much more than needed - for a TLDR just scroll down to the example with the red bricks being categorised into big groups and then broken down again. (I can’t emphasize enough though doing things by color is horrendous 😅)

There isn’t anything on here I don’t think but I do think there is r/Legostorage (might not have remembered the name perfectly) which has tonnes of good ideas and advice. Ultimately after you have added all the parts you are going to want to store them in a meaningful way to actually get them quickly.

Oh and when searching parts look out for printed parts or very unique looking parts - often you’ll find those are in very few sets and it’ll give you an idea of sets you might have.

Additionally rebrickable let’s you convert parts into sets if you have all the parts.

Yes! I just did this with 25000 pieces I got on FB market place.

Identifying what you can build: You want: https://rebrickable.com/

• Add any sets you have.
• Add any parts you have.

Then you can search for what you can build - filtering by exact colours/close matches/any.

You can also filter only official sets, alternative builds for official sets and MOC (make own creation - builds other people have come up with - both paid and free)

Identifying Parts: Finally as someone who took weeks adding all my parts and only discovered this app in the last few days…

https://brickognize.com/

This website you can take a photo of any one piece and it will give you the part number so you don’t have to hunt for it on the rebrickable parts list. It is astonishingly accurate!

Other tips: Sort your parts first. I went through 2 key stages…

• Reduce to broad categories: brick, plate, bracket, minifigure etc.
• remove every part of one type at a time regardless of color and then add them etc.

With rebrickable you can just select 1x2 brick and add 10 black and then just quickly change number and color to 8 green etc. So colour’s are not worth sorting til the very end!!

Plus identifying all the green 1x2s in a pile of 1x2s is a LOT easier than identifying all the 1x2 greens in a huge pile of green stuff.

I’ll stop now as it’s becoming a wall of text but any questions feel free to ask!

I had a quick search but couldn’t identify anything obvious… Could you clarify what cloudflare did recently/why one might want to avoid them?
