It’s not too complicated but you don’t get some things for free like with Synology. It require work to setup scripts for offsite backup for example whereas Synology has a backup app with a UI.

For storage, I used to run ZFS in a raidZ2 configuration. If you do this then I suggest having a cron job running a script that can alert you if the pool is unhealthy. This is again something that Synology does for free.

You could also look up trueNAS core and see if that’s something that fits for you.

I own a Synology NAS. It’ll be the first and last one I buy. When I need an upgrade I’ll go back to building my own again.

Everyone else already mentioned the monitor so I’ll do something else.

With newer motherboards, some WiFi/bluetooth chipsets have poor support. I had trouble with the Realtek chipset that came in my brand new motherboard. The solution for me was to buy a pcie WiFi/bluetooth combo card for about $30. Throwing it out there in case you run into the same problem.

At least Sony had some justification. A new and expensive cell architecture. It was ground breaking for its time but cost too much.

Nintendo is giving us something the steam deck and other pc handhelds can do, and trying to charge $80 for games that will almost never go on sale. I can buy old steam titles for less than $10, show me an old Nintendo title that can ever sell for that amount. It’s just not a good enough proposition just to have access to a handful of $80 Nintendo titles.

I settled on Manjaro over the past year but since arch isn’t in consideration, I’d vote fedora or a derivative like bazzite due to its additions for gaming.

That assumes the person using obsidian is a software dev or a sysadmin. Most users aren’t going to want the extra hassle, or they might be unable to do these things.

What are you going on about?

I don’t work in a space with a monopoly.

My employer doesn’t have free money. They compete in a huge market and earn money while doing so.

Not every company has the business model you described. The world would not run if that was the case.

Yes. That’s at least half of the work I do on a daily basis. How else do companies in the same market compete with each other if they cannot add on to functionality and remain static? That’s a quick way to lose market share to your competition.

Most here won’t like this answer. 1Password.

I’ve used it for years and it just works well for me. Finally convinced my spouse to also use it a couple of years ago. Switching is not an option since it took years of convincing to make that happen.

Software engineer here. You’re completely wrong. The amount of work it takes to maintain and extend functionality to existing software is even bigger than the original cost of building it.

Get some time understanding how software teams work and you’ll understand. There’s a reason C Suites are hoping AI generated code can replace developers. They can’t hire enough of them.

How did time pass so quickly? 😞

Your math needs some work…

2025 - 2011 = 14

2011 + 6 = 2017

I’ll check my docker config when I get home to make sure.

I’m using a different port and have it in my config. Sadly that didn’t work too 😭

Which extension do you use?

I host foregejo, but I have a small problem. I can’t get my ssh keys to work for cloning repos. I can’t only use https.

I use komga for comic books and manga/manwha. It’s solid and syncs to tablet reader apps as well (I use tachimanga)
