Saying I heard once: "Good drivers sometimes miss their exists. Bad drivers never miss their exists." Stuck with me for a very long time.

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

Just built one of these myself. I went NVME M.2 instead of SD Card to avoid data corruption. I know SD Cards are fine if you don't write to them a lot but if you wanna update or add your own stuff, scares me. Plus NVME is just so much faster.

I second this. Will it be open source in the future?

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?

Just built one of those using Dietpi as the OS and NVME M.2 for the storage. I have many different ZIMs and running different services and only using about 270GB.
Works great for offline use. Probably should add an ISO or 2 as well.

New Arizona law to restrict online porn access; Pornhub will block state
Fucking hell... This is how I find out? Assumed AZ would be safe from this bullshit with Hobbs. Guess not. Might be time to just run the VPN router side from now on.

Pretty much what Sinthesis said; USB power brick and/or solar panels. Both at the ready and tested. Also got a big ass battery backup that will charge off solar panels.

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.

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:
For "admin side" stuff:
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.

If your first thought is what you're conditioned to think, maybe you can't access your "defining" thoughts when you're drunk.

I've lived this before. You're not alone, even if we can only give digital support.
I hope you have you physical support around you but if ya need someone to talk to, hit me up. More than happy to talk.

What are some of your favorite Linux FOSS replacements for WIndows software?

Can you post the link for Micro? I use VSCode daily and if there's an OSS version comparable/better, definitely interested.
I never could make KDEnlive work well for me, I use ShotCut instead. Basically everything else, I'm the same. Can't get away from VLC though.

Kind of... You need a 3rd party application to run it on Linux.

I haven't tried it yet since I haven't needed to but with this sale, it's worth giving it a shot.

I haven't, no. But not many are using it currently. I would assume that bandwidth limits are more for large, terabytes of data, rather than a few hundred gigs. Could be mistaken though.
