So I can’t code properly and I can’t run Lemmy or YunoHost on a VM no matter how hard I try. I wanna use it for something and put it to good use, but for what??

    Debian, but the Tailscale IP I’m using with YunoHost (IDK much about coding or self-hosting) will work for a few minutes and then I can’t access YunoHost on it even when I start up YunoHost and Tailscale again

      You should install Debian on the laptop instead of running it though a VM. Or a friendlier Debian-based distro like Mint. I don’t know if that’ll fix that issue specifically but it’s generally easier to debug and handle network issues when it’s not running through a VM. At the very least, you’ll get a more lightweight OS and learn lots!

      Your system probably goes to sleep. Not just screen but also hard disk sleep. Install Amphetamine on it and its companion app. They will work as supercharged Caffienate and keep the system awake even at lid close.
