Modern problems require modern solutions.

I’ve never even played DND but this sounds lit.

Is it going to be a general purpose file server? A media server through jellyfin, etc.? If a media server, do you need to transcode?

That is so awesome. Thank you so very much for taking the time out to inform me on this matter.

Ahhh, good point! I definitely know about Virtualbox. I shall try that. Thanks!!

Thanks! I hope you do, as well!

Thanks! That is good advice and I will begin doing that to try to familiarize myself with the CLI.

Do you know anywhere that I could find a guide on how to set that up correctly? I’ve used SyncThing in the very recent past and it ended up being not good because of my own ignorance. I have syncthing on my phone and my desktop, but neither of them are syncing anything to anywhere. I’m terrified that I will mess something up and possibly lose data, or end up with a gigantic mess of files that do not belong in the synced directory. That’s what happened the only time I ever did use Syncthing. For some reason, it basically transferred a gigantic directory of things that were not relevant at all from my PC to my phone, filling up all of the storage and it was a hassle to get rid of everything that was not supposed to be there. I REALLY want the KeePass databases on my phone and on my main PC to communicate and update each other though. Entering everything in twice has been frustrating.

I was a member of r/selfhosted before I abandoned reddit altogether, but I’m not familiar with /c/selfhosted. May I ask what the C is?

I haven’t actually began to use it yet because first I am trying to understand the framework and fundamental basics of what it is that I am attempting to do. When I get a grasp on that, I will definitely be using YUNO and overwhelmingly likely will donate a good sum of money to that project.

Hello again, thanks again for the great advice. I have a question though. The traditional network model that you mention…is that also sometimes reffered to as the OSI Model? Are the two the same thing? I just want to make sure that I am studying the correct thing.

Very cool. Thanks for sharing the link.

What an upstanding person.

Yes, I’m definitely trying to understand the “why” of what it is that I am doing. I’m just going to be using YUNO as a starting point.

Oh my god, you were right. Yuno is AMAZINGLY useful for exactly what it is that I am attempting to do!

Sevral people have mentioned Yuno and I’m going to look into it shortly. Thanks for the input!

Thanks for the advice. Currently, I have a backup of all of my important data on a high capacity HDD that is completely disconnected from any devices. There is no real way to automate backups with that setup, but it’s what I am working with at the moment.

This seems to be an extremely valuable resource. I love the GitHub awesome lists, and I definitely starred this one as a reference point!

Indeed, I do agree but I’ve never done anything close to this magnitude so it is kind of intimidating for me. It is a learning process though!
