I wrote a simple greeting script for fish as a fetch/motd alternative
Repo: codeberg.org/Lunar267/fish_cute-greeting
A very tiny bit of code but I figured some other ricing enthusiast might like use it

Bear blog was open source under the MIT license, and then they changed to a copyleft license in 2025. What I didnt realize is they dont have any selfhosting tooling or documentation which is a shame
Looks like im gonna have to go with mataroa like I originally planned and write some custom css to inject
Have you taken a look at bear blog, it uses markdown or html and aimed to be small and maintainable well into the figure
If ypu have the hardware but not the forwarding capability like me, you can use cloudflare tunnels for free, or setup headscale on a free orical vps. Otherwise go with the cheapest vps you can find (Im using Hetzner, but ive heard good things about netcup, or even Oricals free teir vps and move off of it if you end up not ditching selfhosting), play around, and if you need more power its as trivial as backing up your services and putting them on a more powerful server
To everyone asking who linux breaks for: me. My desktop? Wont wake from sleep half the time (motherboard issue, fuck you ASRock), I have a laptop that wont load its wifi drivers unless you sacrifice 12 children too it(it legit just had wonky drivers being an older intel wifi chip), audio and video issues out the ass on those old dell office pcs
Just because you won the hardware lottery doesnt mean wonky devices dont still exist. And sometimes people shop by price of hardware not its linux compatibility
Thanks a lot for the advice!
In practice fish is extremely more efficient then bash with the script profiling at 9ms. Not amazing but since this will only run once when opening the shell its small enough to not be noticeable
So thats where it was! My original script tried to loop over all the cpu max and mins and calculate the percentage before deciding uptime was just more practical. Thanks for the info!
Its just so damn easy to grab the piece of info you want with lol
Really thanks for all the feedback Ill have to work some of your advice in when I get back to my computer
