You can use Tailscale and a personal domain. Run Tailscale on the same machine as your reverse proxy. Then point DNS records to the machine's Tailscale IP. Now you can access any services from any machine connected to your Tailscale with a valid HTTPS certificate

Check if you selected the correct driver
I'd love to move to it, but I cannot find any easy way to export from Readeck and import to Linkwarden. At least a list of pages.
Agreed. Setting up an NFS share is a mess with Podman
If you are willing to learn, then you can check Linux laptops from Framework, Tuxedo and Entroware. Linux preinstalled, and hardware is compatible.
OK, really good article and I like Libreoffice (although I prefer Only office) and Linux. I browse on it, game, watch videos, do pretty much everything. I am also a technical person, who can create a VM in 10 mins, add a required boot parameter, etc.
Now. I want to send this article to my colleague/friend who's not technical at all. In the blog post I read
Start by testing Linux and LibreOffice on a second partition of your PC (for individuals)
"Second partition" literally means nothing to most people. I know: just learn, just read. But most people will not bother, or they will simply not understand the tutorials. That's the unfortunate reality.
I think Linux and Libreoffice can become mainstream if a regular Joe/Jane can buy a laptop from Walmart with a distro and office apps pre-installed and use them like Microsoft Office. Before that time all this Linux and FLOSS stuff is limited to technical, or at least curious people willing to put some effort.
P.S. My relatives are on Linux and Onlyoffice, because I installed it for them. And it's so much easier and more rare for me to manage and troubleshoot than Windows. But I cannot see them installing it by themselves.
I personally just pointed Coreelec to my NFS share.. I tried Jellyfin for Kodi and Jellycon and they are quite unstable (at least a few months ago). If I pause a video, and the restart, it was guaranteed to exit the stream after a couple of minutes. Sometimes, it would not sync properly, so if I finished an episode, it was not guaranteed that the day after it's marked as "Watched". On the other hand, Coreelec + NFS works flawlessly.
Bitwarden is a very convenient password manager for an average computer user. It's very straightforward and easy to use.
I can see some bias here of the people who say "o, just use KeePass and sync the database over some cloud provider". What if there are conflicts? How do they deal with them? I can figure it our but most people I know, won't.
Even the password manager concept is a complicated concept to grasp for many people (that I know). And I can recommend them Bitwarden because it's relatively easy, but KeePass with sync? Maybe, if I commit to actively help them with it.
P.S. I've convinced several people to try out Linux, and they are willing to learn it, but even if they just need to use a browser, they struggle sometimes. I can't imagine them syncing the KeePass database.
Like mentioned in the article, another issue is that there are very few offerings of computers with Linux preinstalled in normal computer stores.
You know how a normal average persons buys new laptops? They go to such store and look at the prices and buy one according to how much they want to spend. The advanced buyers might consult their more tech-savvy acquaintances. Stuff like "Just install Linux", is beyond concept comprehension for a lot of people, even if they heard about Linux at all.
All to say is that it's not like they can't understand these concepts if you explain them (people are clever), but they should care about them in the first place.
