Sideloading apps to ios is still a huge difficulty. Also, not possible to access a terminal to the underlying system. No way to modify audio output. All of these are basic things on android.

Mastodon can be janky and it is honestly hard to use, especially of you never used Twitter either. For me, Libreoffice does its thing and ocuppies much less space and less intrusive than Microsoft Office. Open-source projects tend to be less polished than commercial ones due to lack of funding. 98% of open-source projects are completly free, while things like Microsoft license keys cost the price of a lower-end computer

InfinityXOS released its Android 15 version already in November

these are not real people, just bots

survallience, ids, vpn, dnscrypt, i2p, and all of their depencies

if debian, i’d still go with testing

which formats does it support?

any quadro cards are very rare in my country, it is hard to find one, especially on the used market. And around 4-5 users will go on the network at the same time, plus the cameras. 400$ would be too much, but 100$ is pretty good. currently i’m browsing used PCs from 2012-2016 around the 100$ category

i have priorities. And fresh software is higher priority that being ultra stable and fault tolerant. I used Tumbleweed which is a rolling release and it was perfectly stable. I would use SUSE server in no question, if it was free

i couldn’t live with no automatic depency resolving. It is like booting up without a package manager, network connection, gui, sudo command. I want a server, not a broken system to fix

i really need such strong hardware for hosting these basic things? my dream gaming pc isn’t that powerful. This seems very unrealistic, what you mentioned is top-tier hardware

security, being up to date, stability, ease of use. All of these are important, but in this order

what about Rhino (it is Ubuntu’s unofficial rolling distro)?

i heard it is extremely hard to use. is it true?

it will be around 5-15 users at the same time (end devices), 5-10 cameras (720p, 25fps, with lightweight motion detection), it will surely host that, and some ids like Snort or Suricata (not actual enterprise software, only something that is open-source and tries to imitate such security), maybe 1-5 static websites. In emergency, it will take the file server, i2p, dnscrypt, vpn hosting as well. And there should be still some resources free, for stability and performance. I have 15-20 mb/s wi-fi, according to ookla speedtests and torrent downloads (i’m living next to a forest). oh and i would like to mitigate ddos attacks, at least with the basic blackholing method (redirecting excess traffic to localhost). However, if i can configure a more reliable method, then i will use that

anything that has even a little to do with security. Not like a live release enviroment where i grab packages almost instantly, but i don’t think my server could be secure with 5 months - 2-3 years old packages

so i should avoid mini and compact pcs then, right?

is it a big problem if i don’t use virtualization? And i think if i ever need a public website, i will use an another machine to host that, or a docker. Also, what kind of cpu is needed and how much ram? i don’t want a headless server, since survallience stuff needs graphical enviroment, my best bet would be a lightweight x11 window manager

ps: I want to avoid debian. I need more recent software than that. Maybe debian testing can get into consideration, but certainly not the main build
