This was mainly a test of the software for me, but the result came out so much better than I expected. Raw editing in darktable and focused stacked using ChimpStackr, two amazing foss pieces of software.

The container I run plex on has plenty of spare memory but is still using 100% SWAP. First off, is this an issue I should be concerned with or try to fix? If so, any ideas?
I've followed this guide after setting up an openmediavault LXC using a tteck script. I want to run this container as unprivileged and haven't been able to get it to see my external USB drive.
Things I've tried:
*cgroup2 instead of cgroupcreate=file to create=dirMaybe I'm missing a step after following this guide? To check my success, I go into the Storage→Disks section of openmediavault and see that nothing is listed there. Clicking the 'Scan for new devices' icon results in a 500 - Internal Server Error.
Maybe this guide is horribly outdated? It states: "Note: lsusb will not work inside the container because there are no devices there yet" but I am able to install usbutils and lsusb to see all USB devices on my host from within the LXC console.
I'm running omv as a VM currently while I try to figure this out. If I remember correctly, all I had to do was use the proxmox GUI to add the USB device to the VM in the hardware section, then omv was able to see the drive and interact with it just fine.
I updated to V23.09.13-09:43 (92) this morning. I use list view. On all picture posts, I click the thumbnail to open them and get a black screen. I tap to close and open the pic again and it displays normally.
I've tried going into the app settings to force stop and clear the cache and it did not help.
For starters, I'm ultra new to proxmox and linux. I have my old PC running proxmox in the corner of my room so I can play around and learn it.
I have my main server (running Windows) sharing an attached hard drive as a samba share for other computers on my network. I can't seem to mount this share in a fresh LXC, but I can in a PlexMediaServer LXC I created using tteck helper scripts. I'll just attach what I'm doing below. Both are using the same container template (Ubuntu 22.04).

I think it's pretty obvious that I have a problem with permissions on the bare LXC that I don't with whatever that script is going to set up the LXC and install Plex for me. I'd like to be able to mount network shares as easily as this on all my other LXCs as well. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
I have a mini-PC running windows. On that, I run home assistant in virtualbox, have plex installed, and a cheap USB harddrive plugged in to keep my plex media. I've turned on sharing for a folder in this drive so other devices on my network can access it.
I've watched some videos and read some tutorials. I have a pretty good idea on how I'm going to run HA and Plex, but I'm unsure about turning my USB drive into something the rest of my devices can access as well as something Plex can directly access too.
What would you recommend as the most beginner friendly, easy way to accomplish this? I keep seeing TrueNAS pop up, but I'm not convinced this isn't way overkill for what I want to do. So what would you recommend I look at to start out? The amount of information and things I don't know yet is a little overwhelming.
After I get more familiar with the system, I'm totally happy to branch out and try more advanced things that most people prefer, but that's down the road for me now.
Edit: to be clear, I'm planning on completely ditching windows and setting everything back up in proxmox
I never want the next video to automatically play. Videos in playlists specifically automatically go to the next and I cannot find a way to disable this.
Non-playlist videos have an autoplay toggle at the top I can turn off. Videos in playlists don't.
I'm in the US. My wife and I are moving into a new-build community in Feb. next year and they are using these wall controls for the rooms with lights and a fan.
I'm having a little trouble finding a home assistant compatible replacement. The 1-gang width probably limits my options severely. I'm open to converting these to 2-gang, so I'm open to 2-gang devices as well.
Zigbee is is my preference, then WiFi (local only), and I'm not interested in z-wave.
The recent change today that makes hidden posts permanent after a page refresh instead of temporary has seriously bugged the way I browse Lemmy.
Now if I have too many posts hidden, my front page won't even load. I'd really prefer the choice to hide posts I've seen/scrolled past. Can we at least get a toggle to enable the old functionality?
