Unmapped

Wow, I had completely forgotten this comment.

I am definitely still using Nixos on all my machines. As I have learned how to do more with Nix code it has only got better.

I have not tried VoidLinux. I actually dont think I have ever heard of it. Or maybe I have just forgotten. The package system does sound interesting. If I remember to I might try it out in a VM.

From what I can tell the server issues has been fixed. They are always making improvements.

For the what I was trying to use it for it ended up not working for me. I was trying to build up a Plex server. But they didn't want to have a large cache so started removing anything that wasn't used in a few days. And didn't reset the "timer" when you use it over WebDAV/rclone.

I decided to just use real debrid because their cache is HUGE. But sadly they dont seed or have Usenet.

I had already paid for a year of torbox so I still use it regularly for one off downloads not related to my Plex. I will probably still renew my subscription to keep using it for this. Though probably drop to a cheaper tier. I really like that it seeds the torrents and has Usenet.

I hope one day I can fully replace RD with it, but I dont expect it anytime soon. The programs I use for my Plex setup where all adding tor box support when I made my original comment, but mostly dropped it when torbox changed their cache policy.

I use Localsend to send files between my computers. Also to family and friends if they are local at the time. I keep seeing magic-wormhole mentioned on Lemmy. Do you know if wormhole is better somehow? Is it worth me trying it?

I dont have an apple TV myself yet. But I can tell you one thing. Pretty much all the androids including my google TV Chromecast doesn't have codec support for the dolby audio like truehd. Its so annoying I can't play hardly any of the 4k movies I have on Plex. Looks like my options is to ether switch to apple TV, a nivida shield pro, or by a HTPC.

Its a lot simpler then that. Dont add them to your tailscale account. Each user should have there own tailscale account. Then you just send them a link to share your machine (your server) with their tailnet. Then all of there devices they have added on their account can access your server.

Bonus: send them referrals and you get your device limit increased when they make a account. Which all they have to do is sign in with their google or apple account.

Zen is pretty cool.

For real. I've been on a search for a good one and they are all sooo bad. definitely trying this one later.

You should check out Nixos. You make a config file that you can just copy over to as many machines as you want.

Check out torbox. Its like a seedbox/debrid but the pro plan also comes with Usenet. I just started using it but seems really promising.

They have been having a lot off issues lately because they don't have enough servers yet. They are supposed to get new servers setup this week.

Only one I ever tried is whatbox.ca . Been using them for 7+ years. They are great.

I was a Arch Linux fan for at least 5 years. Tried all the main ones except gentoo. Kept coming back to Arch. But now I'm one week into using NixOS. I don't think I'm ever going back. It has completely blown my mind, and fixes every minor thing I didn't like about arch. Mainly how package dependencies work. I'm sure there will be a downside somewhere, but so far the only issue I've had is just trying to learn how to config everything.

TLDR: NixOS. I don't know how I didn't know about it till recently. Seems like it would be a lot more popular than it is.

Nextcloud or a samba server are good options. But if storage is not a issue I'd recommend checking out syncthing. I run it on my server and sync some directories to my phone and other directories to my desktop. And one directory between phone and desktop(obsidian notes). I don't think you can run sycthing on iphones though.
