I use Jerboa but should probably switch as it seems lackluster.

Thanks for the info

A sideline here : how do you tag people?

This is 2015 all over again where IoT hit mainstream consumers and every project on Kickstarter was a simple thing that doesn’t need Bluetooth with added Bluetooth.

I have setup NetBird with Authentik. Netbird is on a VPS and authentik on my home server.

NetBird allows to expose a service through a subdomain. Or you can use the netbird client as a VPN and allow peer to peer connection.

Communism in the strictest sense is the means of production are owned by the state.

The classless doctrine was proposed by Marx and is often inferred when talking about communism.

You can absolutely have a communist society with a caste system.

That is way above my database knowledge. I will need to read up on that.

Thanks for the input

You say it’s easier to back up tightly coupled services and databases, but why?

Because it is set and forget in my docker compose. I can backup the container and bring it down without affecting other services.

But that is my inexperience talking and this is is why I wanted to see what other people were doing, and having perspective like yours to learn.

That’s a good perspective.

Also I hate docker in general. I understand why people use it. It’s the same reason I use it.

I am the same. But many services offer docker as the main installation method and many times, the bare metal method is poorly documented.

So docker it is. And it’s a good skill to have no matter what since it is so widespread.

I never thought about the issues of setting a docker service with an external database. I don’t mind dealing with the users and tables of a database, but having to dig deep in docker compose settings is always a bad time.

I bought some low capacity SSD for 20$ each to install Proxmox and Proxmox Backup Server and was lucky that they both had only roughly 800 hours only, so that at least worked out for me

How many hours when you got them?

The one I find have a high number of hours

When you got them, how many hours were they at?

The HDD I see around me have 60k hours ++ so I am a bit frisky considering what they ask for

I mean, I’ve been running lots of services on 256GB, but none of them were media servers haha.

My current ARR stack is a share of 1TB on a 2TB SSD, so I get you.

10TB was pocket change not too long ago, now it’s so expensive. Unreal.

I’m lucky because my TV is 1080p so i can download lower resolution movies and series.

I just have a 2TB server, for all my services, so I allocate 1TB for the ARR stack and the rest for my other services.

80TB would be nice haha.

I should probably add maintainerr to my services, would help me keep my files space low.

40TB is wild.

My plan is to pile a bit of money and try to buy used lots of HDD and test them for health and create a JBOD storage.

I just setup the ARR stack and you can use a docker compose file to manage all the services. Then you need to create individual account for the services but that is straight forward.

I have a 2TB ssd for my whole server. I had 2x 2TB SSD in my pc that were collecting dust, so I took them out and used one for my server and one for my backup server.

So I can allocate about 1TB for Jellyfin

I felt crazy when I tried to use Kodi. Everything was so convoluted to setup.

I was thinking of installing Linux on a mini-pc I have here and just buying a bluetooth keyboard/mouse combo to watch medias. I can run Firefox with ad blocking and easily access my server like that.

Side question here: how big is your storage pool for those of you that runs a jellyfin server?

I just started a Jellyfin server, but with the current hdd prices, it fills up fast and I need to manage my library a lot more than I’d like

Thanks for the answer.
