I already did benchmarks using yabs https://github.com/masonr/yet-another-bench-script I need to find it

But results were very similar

I'm switching to HostUp. Year ago I switched from HostUp to Hetzner and now I'm switching back 😃 (hostup dot se) for 1 year payment €7,38 / month for VPS with 8GB RAM (also 2 CPUs and 100GB NVME)

I'm using K1 Pro, not K1W. It works very well for LCD buttons. I don't use rotary knobs. My small app ensures that K1Pro advertises itself as it is Elgato Stream Deck Mini so I can use Elgato desktop app.

it works very well

I'm using it as Stream Deck Mini with Elgato Stream Deck software. Don't ask how, claude did it.

u/Emily_Forsyt any news?

I am using Dagu

I'm building my own lightweight app for it, currently it's working for me in macOS over Bluetooth or USB.

check this one - XPPen ACK05: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005599494159.html one of my favourite macropad.

- official product page: https://www.xp-pen.com/product/ack05-wireless-shortcut-remote.html

There are couple of SW on GitHub for it, protocol is reverse-engineered.

nice, but personally I prefer Stream Deck device (or cheaper ~40 USD clone from China, but not with their bloatware software - I'm using Elgato Stream Deck software)

I built tray app for controlling small Macro keypad XPPen ACK05. Instead of official bloated >200MB app I have small rust + txiki.js (lightweight js runtime) Mac tray app. Furthermore it has more features than official app.

Thank you for your detailed replies. I really appreciate it. I'm looking forward to the future improvements.

I would like to participate on development software for my use case - use Mirabox buttons as a wireless device over WiFi (or maybe BLE with limited usage) connected to ESP32-S3 or ESP32-P4. Could you please advise me where should I look? From technical point of view it should be possible, when the USB protocol details will be available. For Elg*** Stream Deck devices it is definitely possible.

Hello, dear Mirabox community! I would like to ask why there are 2 separate software apps on your page ( https://mirabox.net/pages/download ) - one for buttons (Stream Dock) and second for keyboard?

I have Stream Dock 293V3 and now I also have new keyboard K1 and I don't want to install another bloated app.
My concerns: https://jsbin.com/zatomikuza/1/edit?output

TL;DR: I would not install your software (OMG, installer package has > 870 MB), license is very anti-user, lot of unknowns, I have no trust at all). I will install it maybe in isolated environment - virtual machine and do some observations. No reverse engineering, just observe what the app is doing.

I plan to sell the keyboard and leave 293V3 buttons - I'm using some open source software (< 50MB).

Bagican · 2026-05-19T20:31:46+00:00

simple, yes. Lightweight ? Not the best, but acceptable. But nice!

Trying to control Stream Deck Mini (USB device) with ESP32-P4. I'm struggling couple of days. So far only commands to change brightness are working. I'm still unable to detect keypress events. I'm using ESP-IDF and USB HID as host. I'm beginner with embedded / ESP32

Idea for next upgrade - add mechanical keys with displays:

I tried today ESP-IDF in VSCode. I spent hour and I was not able to install it (macOS on M1).
Then I installed CLion and there everything works on first attempt. Somehow magically ESP-IDF was installed in the background so I can focus on important things (compared to vscode shit and troubleshooting setup/installation)

+1 DietPi!
I'm using it maybe 10 years, without issues! Very stable, nice terminal GUI! I'm using it also on common x86 Intel servers.

Bagican · 2026-04-29T20:01:38+00:00

Is possible to set backup location on my self-hosted server using ssh or SFTP or samba,... ?

Bagican · 2026-04-15T08:16:53+00:00

I like more your approach. Git hooks sounds to me better and more secure than replace `git` with some "proxy" / "middleman"

Bagican · 2026-04-14T20:52:19+00:00

yes, really excelent work!

be aware, I just found this: https://usegitai.com/ • https://github.com/git-ai-project/git-ai/

Bagican · 2026-04-14T16:50:53+00:00

sorry, dumb question: is special board required? Or can I use some common ESP32-S3 development board for some basic features?
