From my experience, Cities Skylines works great through proton on steam (it’s a compatibility layer for windows games) and Minecraft has it’s own native launcher (which is downloadable from their site here, you need to use the debian installer for ubuntu). As far as ubuntu native, I haven’t used it a lot. Linux mint is a distro recommended for people who are used to windows most often, you can take a look around.

As far as the other games go, only slime rancher is one that I know doesn’t work through steam. For most games you can take a look at protondb, where you can just search for the game.

Modrinth just started their server network, it is very new, so I’m not quite sure on reliability. The company itself is open-source and seems quite good, they have made a great mod platform in recent years.

I was planning on filtering local and external IP’s, like technotim explains in one of his videos by using cloudflare as an external reverse proxy

I’m aware of this. There are a few services I expose, but most of them are local. I just wanted to make accessing local services a bit cleaner.

Will also take a look at the router DNS, thanks a lot!

Okay, I’ll start with configuring pihole for DNS. If I get it, I can just use that DNS and if I need to access a service external I need to register the domain with my registrar?

Thanks for the reply! I think I get it now.

I’m working on a simple and hackable static site generator, stagnant. I wanted a static site generator that utilized html for templates, so I built it myself to learn rust a bit better.

What mods are you currently using for this? It looks great visually!

Thanks a lot!

Do you only use floating windows on hyprland? I like floating windows more than tiling, so would like to know how you did it.

You can get more updated packages by running debian testing, which is quite stable. Debian also is more stable. Security patches are still brought to the main release, making it secure. The stability comes from the lack of a lot of new updates which come with a lot of new bugs.

I’m currently using firefox nightly which seems somewhat hardened, browsing histlry and cookies are cleared on closing and adblocking is enabled by default. No add ons tho

I would also recommend firefox/firefox nightly as web browser and perhaps grayjay for youtube alternative (it still uses the youtube service tho)

Will take a look at ombi

Oh, sounds good. I’ll look into it

Seems like I didn’t look into radarr and sonarr good enough, I’ll research them a bit better.

I also do most of it manually, most of my movies have subtitles downloaded, but I want to keep track of what I still need/have. A spreadsheet does sound simple, but workable

Great! Thanks a lot, this will help

sounds good, do you have any docs on how to do that?
