Is the repo private, or does GitLab seriously require an account now to view repos?

Technically the Linux kernel is just an interface with lots of modules

Though IntelliJ and Pycharm are both open source. But if you use the rest of the suite then yeah

Another simpler frontend for iptables I think is well suited for desktop environemnts is ufw. It does what it’s supposed to do and is extremely simple to use

Nowadays it is almost impossible to get a virus just from visiting websites. As for security recommendations I would recommend never running applications as roo that 100% don’t need it, as for 3rd party repos I would always be a by mindful of the apps but generally there isn’t too much of a risk, of getting a virus.

I can’t recommend KeepassXC enough. And it’s not even hosted either, it’s a simple keepassxc database file. Sharing it across devices is done using any file server or service you want to use.

My experience with hosting mail was very good. I host my mail using Mailu, which is just a docker compose file and premade scripts for the usual mail stack software (Postfix, Dovecot, Nginx etc.). I hosy it on my home network using a raspberry pi. I score 9.8 on mail tester and my mail rarely ever lands in spam.

In total I spent maybe 3 hours setting everything up including my domain and 2 hours debugging issues. I honestly recommend self hosting mail.
