For anyone that needs a guide. Should work for most providers with some configuration changes.

Very nice. Details on the the mini PC & jbod? I’m curious what your read/write speeds are like and what (if any) compromises you had to make vs a “normal” 2u/tower setup.
I was wondering why my custom sync folders weren’t syncing anymore.
I primarily use antennapod but tried abs out of curiousity. How did you get around the queue issue? I found it to be a dealbreaker
The monitors unboxed youtube channel does really good in-depth reviews and includes mixed usage. They also have good buying guides at various price points.
Lots of good answers already. I think one of the biggest factors is to not be the kind of person that succumbs to choice paralysis. There are always going to be a multitude of options for every problem. Learning to live with the idea that the best solution to a problem is not the only acceptable solution will go a long way to keep from getting frustrated in linux.
AI is a different beast altogether, maybe I missed that use case in this or your previous post. From what I’ve read, rocm support for the 9070 cards is still being worked on.
Edit: Just learned to stay away from the keyboard until after coffee. Also, GPU pricing is horrible all around.
Why the 7900XT and not a 9070 or 9070XT? Stock issue? Both are overkill for 1080p gaming but if you’re trying to future proof, wouldn’t the newer card with FSR4 be the better option?
I’ve been using the startech bt usb adapter in linux for a couple of years without issues.
None of your listed use cases will even come close to taxing the 6600k. It’s going to probably sit happily in idle states most of the time.
Proxmox also has great snapshotting and backup features. Makes it easier to mess around with your containers/VMs without worrying too much.
Let’s say Signal goes full maga. The chats are encrypted and there are no subscriptions or ads. What are the downsides?
Most people go with either FreshRSS or Miniflux but there’s lots of options to choose from.
Any low power device is going to struggle with video playback unless you’re doing direct streaming. The exception being the new Intel N line of processors that have capable enough GPUs to do the transcoding. If all you’re after is decent transcoding performance for H264/H265 video, anything newer than Intel’s 7-8th gen CPUs will do the job. $100-$200 used optiplexes and thinkcentres can easily handle this type of workload.

Can you be more specific about your performance objectives? The Pi5 can handle jellyfin and nextcloud relatively well, so if you’re having issues with them, identifying the bottlenecks can help narrow down the hardware recommendations.
Yes. The first number didn’t work so I refunded it but it worked on the 2nd try.
I’ve used smspool.net a few times without issue.
Agreed but that’s just life in Linux in general. If epic and gog don’t want to do the work to have a legitimate option in Linux (makes sense given market share), we’ll keep doing the best we can with the hacky options while supporting the platform that is putting in the work.
Mainly to avoid using YouTube and the mess of that interface. All i need is a chronoligical feed of the channels I like. I’m not overly concerned that they can associate my IP with some viewing activity. As long as there are multiple people in the household using YouTube, it’s not a given they know who’s watching what. Also it’s much easier to have multiple invidious profiles and use them with Firefox containers than it is to have multiple YouTube accounts and switch between them.

Running a remote instance without some sort of IP rotation became infeasible. I’ve been running it locally since google started actively trying to kill invidious. The only reason that still works is because they want to avoid collateral damage that could affect other people in the household.

Not sure if that’s the reason but it seems like a reasonable explanation.
