Cloud based solutions in selfhosted are a hilarious suggestion.

I would suggest avoiding anything that is a “community” or “personal use only”. If its not fully open its not worth it.

Debian is already easy out of the box.

Chromium instead of Firefox? The gate is wide open, but if that’s the first selling point, your mind is the prison.

100% you don’t have to train a thing ollama uses open availability models. They many are decent, the best use a lot of ram/vram.

The forks of proper redis.

Nah, redis is dead to most devs, the forks are far more popular with indie devs now.

A step in the right direction. If they don’t offer a price difference, they can keep it.

We need better and longer term uefi/bios support as IBM/lenovo used to have systems that specifically prevent uefi Linux installs from booting.

That trust was broken then, they do not have it now.

I believe his goto comment on git is that its current maintainer did/does far more work on git them him.

Thank god for that dude.
