    Not really through Caddy but for my setup I have it so the ssh port for Forgejo is only accessible through tailscale. So for push/pulling updated my ssh config file to something like

    Host git.mysite.com HostName tailscaleMachineName User git Port 1234

    Then doing git pull git@git.mysite.com:user/project.git works just fine as long as I am connected to tailscale

    Otherwise you could open the port for Forgejo’s ssh so that you can access it without any vpn


  • Getting a second drive just for windows I think is a good approach. If you were to do so, it’s important that you remove all other drives while installing windows, otherwise the Windows installer will put its boot files into whatever existing EFI partition it finds.

    Then using something like https://github.com/Raphire/Win11Debloat you should be good to go with a relatively clean setup.

    To have a local account, I use Rufus to setup the usb installer in a way that it automatically creates the local account, and it can also disable the secure boot and tpm requirements from the installer if you want. Though I think rufus is a windows program only. I know there’s the “OOBE” approach for the local account, but I haven’t done that before. That could be an option too




  • I tried it out for a while and I think a new feature? is that you can control de brightness of the monitor through Plasma. Cool for one monitor but I have 2 and one is brighter than the other at a given brightness %, so it got a bit annoying. I didn’t look further into it but when 6.1 is released on Fedora I will probably need to.

    Additionally the SDR colors when HDR is turned on looked better overall. Better than Windows was able to do even. Awesome stuff














  • Just between yesterday and today I was struggling with this, to get DoH or DoT working, but Network Manager would override /etc/resolv.conf. At least I figured out how to stop NM from modifying the DNS.

    I tried my putting my dns settings in /etc/systemd/resolv.conf, as suggested by Nextdns setup page, but that didn’t seem to work, at least on Tumbleweed. On my Debian laptop running as a headless server, the /etc/systemd/resolv.conf does work.

    I’m currently with Stubby, and it’s working at least, but I would’ve liked to figure out the systemd-resolved way on Tumbleweed.


  • I would say option 3.

    I can share my current setup in case you’re interested.

    I recently moved back to Tumbleweed, and did the following:

    / -> 50GB, BTRFS, currently 13GB used I think

    /home -> 800something GB, BTRFS, same drive

    /boot/efi -> 512MB i think, same drive

    Then a separate drive mounted to a folder in my home directory, for games mostly.

    So far it eworks well, at least for me. BTRFS snapshots are working fine too. Flatpaks I have installed as user so they get installed in my home directory.
