+I already had a good quality ethernet cables and micro SD cards lying around. You may ask if I am using SSD then why use
+a SD Card. The simple answer is that I am using an SSD for storing everything, but all the OS functions are still run on
+the SD card. In an unlikely event, I can just pull out the SSD and plug it in a different machine to access my data.
+
+## Applications I am hosting
+
+I won't be going into many details about my configurations in this post. I will probably cover them in separate posts.
+Here I will put a list of all the applications I am hosting and what I use them for.
+
+I am using [Tailscale](https://tailscale.com/) to connect to my servers. They are locked down for access without
+Tailscale network. There is an open source alternative called [Headscale](https://github.com/juanfont/headscale) as
+well, but I haven't given much though of self-hosting them yet. For server management I am
+using [RunTipi](https://runtipi.io/). It uses docker compose to manage all application install.
+
+I will be listing the applications in the decreasing order of my priority.

+### Immich

+| Website                       | Source                                         | Category                 | Platforms         | Similar       |
+|-------------------------------|------------------------------------------------|--------------------------|-------------------|---------------|
+| [Immich](https://immich.app/) | [GitHub](https://github.com/immich-app/immich) | Photos and Videos Backup | Web, Android, iOS | Google Photos |
+
+Immich is the best open source and feature rich replacement to Google Photos. For starters the installation is very
+easy, and you can install clients on Android and iOS. You can also use a CLI import tool to upload all your media
+easily. You get most of the Google Photos feature expect the editing tools. The project is in active development and the
+feature set is increasing day-by-day. You can see a comparision with other FOSS
+alternatives [here](https://meichthys.github.io/foss_photo_libraries/).
+
+### Paisa
+
+| Website                     | Source                                            | Category                   | Platforms | Similar          |
+|-----------------------------|---------------------------------------------------|----------------------------|-----------|------------------|
+| [Paisa](https://paisa.fyi/) | [GitHub](https://github.com/ananthakumaran/paisa) | Finance and Budget Manager | Web       | Beancount,ledger |
+
+It is really hard to keep track of all expenses from multiple accounts and credit cards. There are great solutions and
+applications but either they are too [complex](https://www.firefly-iii.org/) or paid. If you still decide to use them
+most of them don't fit well with Indian users, simply because they were not planned with such users in mind. Nothing
+wrong there but mindset and habits of users matters a lot in such kind of applications. This application became my
+immediate favorite once I installed. There are many thing this application gets right. First of them is the ease to
+use UI and use of India specific terms and inspired from Indian spending habits. There is a bit of learning curve since
+this application builds on top of [Plain Text Accouting](https://plaintextaccounting.org/), but it starts making sense
+once you learn it. The developer is an experienced Software engineer from India. This will work for most of the world
+but for Indian users this is a must-have if you are looking for such application. I wish it can have an android app as
+well. But the current web UI is more than enough.
+
+### Vikunja
+
+| Website                        | Source                                        | Category     | Platforms | Similar               |
+|--------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------|--------------|-----------|-----------------------|
+| [Vikunja](https://vikunja.io/) | [Gitea](https://kolaente.dev/vikunja/vikunja) | Todo, Kanban | Web       | Google Tasks, Todoist |
+
+There are many great open source todo and kanban applications, I have tested many of them and settled for Vikunja. For
+personal use it was easy to set up. It has all the necessary features but is not bloated. The UI is good and it also
+supports CalDAV. An Android application is still in progress but you can utilize CardDAV with applications
+like [DavX5](https://www.davx5.com/) or [Tasks.org](https://tasks.org/). You can also create teams and have
+different projects.
+
+### Atuin
+
+| Website                    | Source                                     | Category           | Platforms             | Similar    |
+|----------------------------|--------------------------------------------|--------------------|-----------------------|------------|
+| [Atuin](https://atuin.sh/) | [GitHub](https://github.com/atuinsh/atuin) | Shell History sync | Linux, MacOS, Android | zsh-histdb |
+
+I have 4 servers and many devices, it is not often easy to get the similar commands on different machines. That is where
+Atuin comes in. Atuin replaces your existing shell history with a SQLite database, and records additional context for
+your commands. Additionally, it provides optional and fully encrypted synchronisation of your history between machines,
+via an Atuin server.
+
+### Gitea
+
+| Website                           | Source                                      | Category         | Platforms | Similar                   |
+|-----------------------------------|---------------------------------------------|------------------|-----------|---------------------------|
+| [Gitea](https://about.gitea.com/) | [GitHub](https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea) | Git hosting, VCS | Web       | GitHub, BitBucket, GitLab |
+
+Gitea is a GitHub replacement written in Go. It includes a lot of features from GitHub including package registry,
+CI/CD, team collaboration etc. I have not been actively using it. But I plan to host my personal projects here.
+
+### Paperless-ngx
+
+| Website                                          | Source                                                   | Category                   | Platforms    | Similar  |
+|--------------------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------|----------------------------|--------------|----------|
+| [Paperless-ngx](https://docs.paperless-ngx.com/) | [GitHub](https://github.com/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx) | Document Management System | Web, Android | Docspell |
+
+This is a document management application where I can store my PDF/text documents (not ebooks). It has built in OCR and
+other useful feature to organise and search through your documents.
+
+### Shiori
+
+| Website | Source                                        | Category         | Platforms                  | Similar            |
+|---------|-----------------------------------------------|------------------|----------------------------|--------------------|
+| -       | [GitHub](https://github.com/go-shiori/shiori) | Bookmark Manager | Web, Linux, MacOS, Windows | LinkWarden, Pocket |
+
+Shiori is a simple bookmarks manager written in the Go language. Intended as a simple clone of Pocket. You can use it as
+a command line application or as a web application. This application is distributed as a single binary, which means it
+can be installed and used easily. There is a third party Android app as well. You can get
+it [here](https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.desarrollodroide.pagekeeper/).
+
+## What is missing
+
+I am still searching apps for a general purpose file server and ebook management. A lot of people have suggested and I
+have also tried Nextcloud for file storage. I also believe it is the best open source alternative, but deep down it
+feels laggy and too much bloated for personal use. I would prefer something very minimal that solely works as a file
+server and explore and nothing else. Similarly, with ebooks, Calibre is good, but it feels outdated.
 
-I already had a good quality ethernet cable, so I didn't have to buy one. 
+If you do have some great suggestions, please put them in comments down below. You can use GitHub sign in or put an
+anonymous comment.
