I hadn’t heard of this. Looks like we’re finally getting some sort of standard API implemented. It’s about time. No reason folks should have to use Plaid or other to link accounts or pull data easily.

That tracks. That was my plan, a PV on the node I intended to store jellyfin and potentially other sqlite data and back em up for restore later. Will have 2 nodes with m.2 ssd storage for that.

Hadn’t heard of Talos before. Seems pretty neat. Since its run in memory I presume you could netboot it rather easily? I’ve not had issues with k3s myself but an immutable k8s distro sounds pretty nice.

I evaluated rook ceph and raw ceph but I don’t think I need the benefits ceph offers as opposed to the increase in storage of a standard NAS with parity.

That is almost exactly what I have planned as well. Glad to hear it worked out for you

Ya I’m actually running k3s on em now but they dont do much as I’m switching them all over to eMMC or m.2 storage for the os.

I’ve installed k8s manually before and that’s a fools errand. K3s is so much smoother.

Its a group of rock64 and old pi. Picked up a new orange pi5 as well so itll be a three server node k3s setup.

I was evaluating ceph but I think its overkill for my use. Too many drives needed 😅. I’m okay with parity and none of the data stored is irreplaceable. The stuff that is is off site backed up.

I really just want to mimic the Unraid drive setup and move to infra as code as its easier for me to maintain.

I may end up with proxmox in the end who knows.

Migrate from Unraid in a massive tower to a proper JBOD rig in a rack. Finally set up ARM SBC k8s cluster for most things alongside the old x86 hardware for a few services and running the NAS as I don’t know how I’d hook that up to the SBCs.

Neat project!

While this might not solve all of your use cases, did you consider a tool like mise?

Theres a number of other options out there such as asdf-vm and others who’s names I can’t recall. I recently moved from asdf to miss but its a great way to install things on different machines and track it with your dotfiles, or any other repo you want to use. Mise has tons of configuration options for allowing overrides and local machine specific versions.

It won’t tie into apt for your upgrades but you could just alias your apt update to include && mise up.

Any links or thoughts on sane OpenWRT settings for a home network? I’m a networking noob but learning slowly and would love some good reading or tips.

I use gocryptfs because it can be used on Android (DroidFs) and Linux desktop so I can sync my shares.

There’s a few GUIs for desktop for it that you can try out and see if they help with your use case.

Heroic is working on this feature and you can try it out if you want to currently it just isn’t deemed stable. Here is the PR: https://github.com/Heroic-Games-Launcher/HeroicGamesLauncher/pull/3020

Perhaps when it was under jwilms original repo and now its under the alacritty org. Looks like it’s going strong and moving from yaml to toml config, which makes me happy.

When did alacritty die? I thought it was still actively maintained. Maybe I missed an important commit somewhere but it looks active as of now?

I’ve got to agree. It’s replaced z for me and its just a great multipurpose tool

Since I haven’t seen it mentioned yet, I’ve been using Soft Serve on my server. Just a git server with terminal UI and easy to manage.

StreetComplete is perhaps the easiest and maybe best way to contribute as it is on rails. Constraining input for newer users is great. If your area is saturated with information I look at that as a win for the open community as a whole, but I understand the desire to add more.

There is SCEE which has advanced features and more editing options but I haven’t explored it yet. I am just happy something like StreetComplete exists to allow me to contribute in a meaningful way without adding garbage data.
