  • Probably not what OP is looking for.

    But I’m also happy with my Garmin Instinct. I use it disconnected from my phone, it does everything I need offline and stand-alone. To add tracks for navigation I just connect it to my linux laptop and drop the GPX file into the NewFiles (or whatever it’s called) folder on the watch. I was surprised how well it works without official apps. The only thing I used the app for was to update the firmware when I bought the watch.

    Also, fittrackee looks promising - thanks for the tip!



  • I migrated my home- and webservers from Debian to FCOS a while ago and I’m very happy with how everything works.

    Troubleshooting butane/ignition was a bit of a pain in the butt but worth it imo. I suggest just reading through the FCOS docs, they guided me well while setting everything up. I use podman on my webservers and docker on the homeserver (bc nextcloud aio is not fully podman compatible). I use the installer to build a pre-configured ISO that I can deploy where I want to.

    Someone in the comments mentioned Flatcar, which I think looks compelling as well, since it’s basically the same but more of a community effort.
