Trying to add the icon to the folder, which you do by dragging the icon over the folder. Instead the folder is moving down to the next row. It's a frustrating issue that happens at times unless you move the folder somewhere else and then do it again.

Seems like something else tripping it up. Just tested with DDG Browser from F-Droid. Passed the bot test, no issues. Did have to reload the page once for it to render properly though. After that, worked just fine. Aggressive DNS ad blocker, maybe?

Why some prefer Plex over Jellyfin

I use both in my home but I have friends and family that use only Plex. Plex currently is much more user friendly as it has apps everywhere and is simpler to use. Having to enter an URL is already a non-starter for many non-techies.

I personally love Jellyfin even with its drawbacks and quirks. But usability and ease are what's more important to me.

Probably a good idea to go see how much storage will be necessary...

DietPi makes it dead simple to run most of these things as their "software suite" is pretty robust and simple to setup.

For "user facing" applications:

  • Homer Dashboard as the landing page when going to the .local address in a browser
  • Kiwix for the ZIMs
  • Hedgedoc for personal note taking/wiki
  • Lychee photos for a very lightweight photo album maker/viewer for keepsake photos.

For "admin side" stuff:

  • Portainer to manage the containers/stacks
  • Watchtower to auto-update the containers while they're still network connected
  • Transmission daemonized to download and seed the ZIMs or anything else non-pirate related
  • Use jojo2357's ZIM updater to auto-update ZIMs via cron job while they're still network connected
  • DietPi-Dashboard as an all-in-one dashboard to monitor and control the RPi from a web interface. (Yeah I know I can do everything SSH'ing in but I'm lazy.)
  • File Browser just in case I want other people to have access to files but since it's in maintenance mode and I'm unsure I want others to have access, might strip it out

I try to use containers from LinuxServer.io whenever possible. Mostly just cause it's what I do on my main server.

I'm still looking at adding/removing things as I get more time to sit down but I'm pretty happy with it's current state.
