Good to know... Is it a pleasant experience?

I respect your choices, but I am afraid modern web is mostly JavaScript. Can you actually browse anything with noscript today?

Don't agree. Being hosting my email server for 20+ years without issues.

Yes you need to study, no its not difficult at all.

Check https://wiki.gardiol.org/doku.php?id=email%3Astart it's really that, and guess what? It works!

So, yes its getting more complicated but its still well at the grasp of a home hoster.

Do you want it as simple as docker compose up? Grab mailcow.

See my personal notes. I do selfhost mail server, but on a vps to have a good IP

Being doing so for 20+ years and recently rebuilt the entire stack.

See https://wiki.gardiol.org/doku.php?id=email%3Astart

In short, I use postfix+dovecot, with opendmark and opendkim. Setup proper DNS email specific records and a few more steps.

Overall it runs fast and perfect on 4gb ram very old dual core atom CPU.

I have that setup... while it kinda works (provided the music you listen to can be found at all on torrents/usenet) its a pain and the playlists are not created, just the artists are synchronized. This is not good when all you listen to is one track from one artist that has 20 albums...

The original android app has been discontinued by the dev for reasons. Another dev picked it up and keep publishing SyncThing fork on FDROID, at least, i get it from fdroid...

When i tried Joplin i was put off by a few issues:

  • pretty sluggish UI on all platforms
  • not plain markdown: all your files have .md extension but the content is definitely more JSON than MD :)
  • synch is cumbersome unless you use sychthing or similar.

It was over 1 year ago,so.

I don't really get all the hate on the comments. Yes there are tons of note taking alternatives, and yet usually none ever works just perfectly for anybody. More choice is a good thing.

Yes it saves to a database, but it doesnt seems to be encrypted nor "proprietary" or "vendor lock-in" as the notes are, afterall, plain text and can be extracted from a database easily. Is it the best storage for text notes? not in my opinion, but that is not vendor lock-in.

My choice is silverbullet on web and Markor on Android, with Synchting in the back (yes, Synchting still works pretty fine on android thanks to the forked app).

It worked perfectly on my playlist. It seems that if you want to do "bulk" download of entire artists it will hit some issues, but i guess it's due to spotofy throttling or limiting, in any case it's working pretyt nicely.

Being using it since this morning (yeah long time...) but so far, pretty positive.
