My users interface with my server via plex, smb and Nextcloud.

The guts are pretty complicated but from my users’ point of view it’s pretty simple.

You should think about what services you plan to offer and go from there.

Be aware that none of the off the shelf products have a good reputation for being secure when providing services outside your network which is when you may want stuff like Nextcloud.

Then it will be the time for the Android revolution ( life like robots, not a sweet themed OS)

The 5 wealthiest families are pulling the strings of the army.

Been using it since the start of the pandemic. It’s exactly what I want.

I’ve unsubscribed from a couple of communities that did that. They were flooded with content that no one would discuss.

My main hypervisor is proxmox which runs an unraid vm with the iGPU passed through to accelerate PLEX and disk controllers to manage the storage. I also have 2 Endeavour OS VMs, one that runs Thunderbird and Insync. Another that has a quadro p2000 passed through to tinker with. I also have a homeassistant vm and a proxmox CT running docker.

I’m working up to transitioning the dockers on unraid to a proxmox container but at the same time if it’s not broke why fix it.

I also want to mess with networking by putting in OPNsense or pfsense and routing some traffic through a vps.

I pick the side of the Taiwanese and what they want for themselves. Only the unethical would try to force them into something they don’t want.

This guy got me from 0 to having a bunch of useful internet facing services.

How’s the community for that?

I use Endeavor which is what I was going to suggest as an easy to install Arch based distro.

For anyone wanting to learn then going for something Arch based means you’ve got the Arch wiki to back you up.
