  • Linux Tip #1 – neofetch / fastfetch

    If you want to have all details of your server/pc, you can use fastfetch. Neofetch is no longer actively maintained and therefore removed from debian 12 and more recent versions.

    sudo apt update && 
    sudo apt upgrade -y && 
    sudo apt install fastfetch -y && 
    fastfetch

    example output for my laptop:

  • ๐Ÿก Homelab setup for 2026


    So I ditched UmbrelOS because it is not for me and it is not really FOSS.

    I bought a new Geekom A8 Mini PC with 32GB/2TB and an external 5TB HDD. I like it a lot. It is really small and also very quiet. So perfect to put it somewhere in your home.

    I installed Debian 13 without any problems.

    Currently running the following setup:

    Docker + Arcane โœ… (https://github.com/getarcaneapp/arcane)

    I installed Pocket-Id โœ… and Zoraxy โœ… (reverse proxy) via Arcane, so I now can connect to my local apps via Passkey (Bitwarden) and have HTTPS/SSL also working.


    I installed a Bitcoin Node โœ… and Electrum Server (Electrs โœ…) via CLI.

    Then I installed mempool via Arcane, and now I have my own Blockchain Explorer locally.


    Next will be to install BtcPayServer.


    Other Self-Hosted Apps which I’m currently using:

    Linkace โœ…

    Nextcloud โœ…

    • file sync / photos, documents, backups etc.
    • mail
    • tasks webapp
    • notes webapp
    • calendar
    • contacts

    CardDav/CalDav

    DAVx5 โœ… – Sync between Android Client and Nextcloud Server

    • Nextcloud Notes Android App
    • Fossify Calendar Android App
    • Tasks Android App


    Merry Christmas and a happy new Year 2026 ๐Ÿก๐ŸŽ„๐ŸŽ
