  • Was looking for the same for ages. Every option I found was either some bloated docker solution or a dead project.

    Gave up and just created a repo named “Todo” on my git server. It’s not really designed to be used for this kind of stuff but git and a web ui works perfectly fine. Just open a new issue. Give it a title and a brief description, a due date and some tags. Then you can create more subtasks, add comments to each, references etc. Even got my non-technical wife to use it.

    With some customization you could probably get exactly what you want.

    Edit: just realized you probably wanted something more simple. Set up a caldav server and sync the tasks using your preferred to-do app.





  • If you’re going to build a media server/NAS/anything serious… Don’t bother with a Linux distribution. Just use FreeBSD. Since you’re a beginner there isn’t any re-learning or need to get rid of any “linux thinking”. You’ll thank yourself in a few years when you can’t escape systemd hell.

    For desktop and everyday usage you already have some excellent ideas in this thread.

    Edit: I get it. Recommending something *bsd based in this community is kinda arrogant. But honestly - someone new is going to ask questions and the “solution” is just going to be Docker in 9/10 times instead of doing something properly.
