  • Xpipe https://xpipe.io/ is an alternative it runs and stores your data locally on your machine and not web based. I’ve been playing with that a bit, it does auto discover Containerized apps and you can sort of exec into them to run commands and also browse the directories of your containerized apps with a simple click in a File type GUI. It uses your OS’s default Terminal application so it won’t bring any extra with you so it’s more native to your OS.

    I’ve been a Konsole user on KDE for a few years now and it’s pretty much what I’ve been used to. Trying out Xpipe now and Termius about a year ago, I can say that Xpipe is stronger in it’s ability to interface with my containerized apps (Docker), but lacks the polish that Termius has visually. They both get the job done, but at the end of the day, I still reflexively just hit my Ctrl+Alt+T key combo to log into my machines.

    Then, for a whole different take, SSWifty! https://github.com/nirui/sshwifty - Instead of launching an app, deploy this on your server, and then use your browser’s session to securely access your sites.


  • I got lost with setting up a nice inbox downloader to store all my emails on a HDD attached to my RPI4, but haven’t quite mastered the SMTP server part or found the right software to run on it. It’s currently powered off waiting for a reflash of the SD Card so I can try again. The end goal for mine is to set up fetchmail and have it grab from my inboxes then imap capabilities so I can read it in Thunderbird. (Don’t talk to me about webmail, I know it’s the way but I’m older than Star Wars (Original one) and am stuck in my ways. Now get off of my lawn!

    Seriously though, I have tinkered with it before as an AdguardHome Server, but somehow, my latency increased so I dropped that. Most of it’s life was spent hosting Home Assistant on it until I moved that to the umm…more controversial Proxmox VM method. I’m also on the fence about setting up the Raspberry Pi Nextcloud on it. (Maybe).

    Here is a good resource for 36 different things you could possibly do with yours.


  • Anytype is amazing, but when they give you these super long passkeys to decrpyt? That makes having to either memorize the something like 12 short words, and keep them in the exact order they tell you, you sort of have to put them in a notebook (ironically), password manager or whatever you choose to store it.
