@leoscarin I am so proud of you, son ❤️

I am so glad that constantly talking about @yunohost pays off eheheh 🎉

It really depends on your needs… For sure going to the Apps Catalog is helpful to get an idea of the most popular and best supported apps.

  • gives you a cloud suite providing almost any essential service you might need.
  • I haven’t tested yet, but it would probably be something you’d enjoy exploring as a alternative.
  • is awesome for handling all your docs super efficiently
  • I use @readeck a lot, and it's very nice, even if it has a lot of room for improvement
  • Tons of people are migrating to
  • Don’t abandon our beloved Pan.rent, but you could test @gotosocial , it's very nifty and well built!
  • changedetection.io is SUPER USEFUL
  • I use both and to manage my finances, but it’s still going very poorly (pardon my joke 🫣)

I have been promoting, using, and translating in Italian for almlost five years (🤯), maybe other people who are new could help you more. @_elena ’s self-hosting log can be of inspiration!
