  • Not a gaming distro but OpenSUSE has Aeon and Kalpa that are arguably more secure with more volumes also being encrypted, focus on btrfs snapshots being reliable vs rpm-ostree style images, etc…

    I used it before bazzite 2 years ago or so but it was a worse user experience in most ways even if there are technical benefits for it (steam via flatpak needing hours of figuring out non- documented modifications to get working, GRUB decryption that is not only slow and prone to errors but also doesn’t show characters typed for a long passphrase and fails after the first try, volume mounting errors every other boot so booting would fail, and layering being worse than Fedora at the time, etc…)

    And nobody can argue that openSUSE doesn’t have the most fun mascot/logo haha.


  • Also good to note: RiscV is not open hardware, it is an open architecture.

    The CPU’s/MCUs made with RiscV are still 99% proprietary and they can put just aa many backdoors into the devices as they want with little no no oversight, arguably less because you have orders of magnitude less external bug and penatration testers.

    Definitely in support of RISC-V because like AV1, open standards are the first big step, but it is good to note that “security” may or may not be better as well as the company behind it.


  • I completely overlooked the android app in the readme, thanks! I have a server set up so can I start local to try it out and migrate to a server later?

    Also is there support for mealie through an authentication platform like authelia?

    Any plans for releasing on F-droid?

    Edit: Oof, you can’t search for foods when making a recipe or meal, hopefully that comes because otherwise it is a huge process to make any custom meal or recipe…




  • Every discussion I have seen on the subject says that docker ipv6 is pretty busted from a security perspective and you have to implement a bunch of workarounds.

    I don’t have to time both to migrate to podman (and maybe have to run dual stacks for what isn’t available) AND migrate to ipv6. But apparently the way podman does it is also kind of a hacky way (I am far from a networking expert) so I will sit with my pretty decent, secure, and working ipv4 lol




  • Yes, but also on the hardware level.

    I don’t know enough about OS programming to know if it is the architecture or the (closed source, as mentioned) CPU design itself that is more difficult to implement.

    Looking at the MCU space, even with a known architecture (like ARM), each processor has to be individually implemented in software and firmware which is a ton of work, and the only people who necessarily know how are the processor designers unless it is open source. But take that with a big block of salt, because I have never done it, just looking at industry practices.
