Probably worth storing the key in another place as well, like keepass on your phone or just print it out on paper and store it.

Its just ok, winget is much better.

Chocolatey can’t update apps that were installed manually or via other methods, only ones installed using chocolatey.

Its also quite slow a lot of the time, and stores files in weird places for some apps.

I wouldn’t be exposing any management consoles to the internet either way, too much risk with something that has docker socket access.

Komodo is the best portainer alt I’ve found, I read through the Arcane info but it doesnt seem as good. Komodos editor also works great.

My favorite is ‘fast and lightweight’ followed by ‘RAM required >500MB’ for a some kind of basic server.

If you want automatic updates over major versions most images will have the :latest tag for that.

It doesnt actually bypass the firewall.

When you tell docker to expose a port on 0.0.0.0 its just doing what you ask of it.

It feels like Bazzite tells you a million times over that you absolutely should not layer packages, it scared me off for sure since I’m new to immutable systems and don’t really know how they work fully.

Depends what protocols you need?

If you use SMB install the Samba server package. If you use WebDAV install a WebDAV server like SFTPGo, etc…

If you want a google drive like replacement there’s Nextcloud, Owncloud, Seafile, and others.

For the drives themselves you can have traditional RAID with MD, or ZFS for more reliability and neat features, or go with MergerFS + SnapRAID, or just directly mount the disks and store files on some and backup to the others with Restic or something.

Lots of options!

Yeah I guess these days the majority of users have fast enough connections that its not worth it. It sucks if you have crappy internet though hah.

Interesting, it wouldn’t work like rsync where it compares the new files to the old ones and transfers the parts that have changed?

Download of 6GB is wild, is that re-downloading the entire package for each one that needs an update? Shouldn’t it be more efficient to download only the changes and patch the existing files?

At this point it seems like my desktop Linux install needs as much space and bandwidth than windows does.

It doesnt graph over time really, it only does it while open and loses the data if you close it.

Here’s an actual answer, a system monitor with historical data: https://beszel.dev/

It’s a webUI but that shouldn’t really matter vs an app with its own GUI.

I’ve never had spam issues with catchall, and it saves a ton of time vs having to go create aliases constantly.

Its a setting on the mail server/provider.

I’ve never had issues with it, been using it for years.

I use a custom domain with catch-all enabled.

Digikey sells the Espressif dev boards, not very expensive either.

Its a docker compose deployment so should just work on any system with docker installed. Copy the docker compose file and env file if it has one, and run ‘docker compose up -d’ in that directory.

It can collect analytics from multiple places.
