That is how I use btrfs on the family laptops (Fedora and Arch). Btrfs on top of luks and snapper for automatic snapshots. No RAID. I stick to xfs and cephfs on the family servers.

Saw that. Tokyo two nights in a row is a bit much for me. I'll have to do it next time. Looking forward to Thursday.

@codewiz
Pretty. What are you using?

@benoit @codewiz
I used a catch-all many years ago when I rolled my own email stack. I abandoned that at the time as I would get more spam. I suppose it would not be too bad if I set up a dovecot rule to auto create folders for each as they came in or something. Also, this would only help me within the user-base as only one can be the catch-all recipient. Thinking...

@benoit @codewiz
Ah, so that is what it is doing. Smart. It does indeed feel rare that I have to wait.
I'll also say that the amount of spam I got when I was on google a few years ago, vs after I migrated to selfhosting mailcow, was shocking. My spam dropped to almost nothing, where is was maybe ~5-20 messages a day that got through on google. Makes me wonder.

@benoit @codewiz
I heavily use the <user>+<label>@domain thing to have my various external account emails get auto-sorted into their own folders. However, sometimes a service doesn't like the '+' delimiter and I either just use my main address or spend a couple minutes logging into the mailcow web page to manually create anew alias, which is a bit of pain. I asked the MC team about adding custom delimiters, but it is fairly involved.

@benoit @codewiz
Maybe what I should do is create a script to automate alias creation that I could run from both my daily driver and my phone. If it is less that a couple of clicks away, I'll use it more.

@codewiz
Yeah, that is a downside. It is not bad for my family and me as we expect it, but it would be tough to host for a more general user base.

@codewiz
Greylisting remains the most effective spam fighting tool I use, in addition to the others.

@benoit
Regardless of the result, it is good practice and forward movement. Just relax and enjoy the experience. :mastozany:

@benoit Good luck. I tried hard to make wayland work for me for about six months I think (I use Plasma). I finally had to throw in the towel and switch back to xorg to stop from going insane with the issues triggered by plugging in or out of external screens, sleeping, etc. And I never did get OBS to be happy under it. I'll try again in maybe a year or two.

@codewiz @benoit @srevinsaju I used to think I hated Japanese music in general. But, I just was not being exposed to the good stuff. Once I realized that, I started seeking out what I might like and found quite a bit. Then I realized I probably would think I didn't like Western music if I was only exposed to pop radio. It is all about finding the good stuff. I'm sure some of it is also my tastes changing slightly through exposure as well. Like learning to like natto.
