homeshick VS Nextcloud

I have a work mac, work linux, and home mac. I want the same terminal-based development environment on all of them, but each requires just a little bit of customization.

For example, the .gitconfig for work is different from home (e.g. my username/email). Ditto for my .ssh/config and my shell aliases.

I also use Nix to manage all my tools, and the home-manager configuration is slightly different between mac & linux due to platform support.

I've gone through a few iterations of home-built solutions, including extending homeshick[1], before discovering YADM which implemented everything I had done but better.

I do roughly the same and then manage them with 'homeshick' ( https://github.com/andsens/homeshick )

Have a look at https://github.com/andsens/homeshick project, it makes this workflow much easier.

Docker for Obsidian and Alfred syncing - the three target limit on the free tier is just barely enough for 2 of my own computers and my work laptop.

I've also got a Brewfile for installing the basic tooling on macOS

I also have a "how to set up a new computer/server" document on Notion that I use so I don't forget any steps.

This is the exact reason I use Fish. The only thing I _need_ to get installed on random servers is Fish itself.

No need to install and configure oh-my-$shell or other huge monstrosities. Most of my stuff comes from a simple homeshick[1] sync with a few files in it.

It really is hard to leave Gmail when all of your data has been conveniently stored therein. This is one of Google's retention strategies and it is indeed brilliant.

That said, there's a vast number of self-hosted alternatives like Stalwart Mail (email) [1], Immich (images) [2], NextCloud (Google Docs) [3], etc.

NextCloud - GitHub

Good open source self-hostable alternatives exist! https://nextcloud.com/ (no affiliation, just a longtime happy user) is great for file sharing and even collaborative online document editing.

If you do not want to host your own instance, there are many great providers who will host one for you at a low cost.

See Configuration and syntax changes and Special packages. The latter this time includes changes around NextCloud 23 and Tor Browser prior to 12.5, both of which should be upgraded beforehand.
