Wow. My homeserver drives generally last me 5-8 years before I replace them. Can't imagine getting nag dialogs after 3...

With mirrored storage spaces / raid10, who really cares if a single drive dies?

I hate Plex. It's gotten too bloated.

I run Emby primarily, but not externally accessible [vpn]. It works really well for me, haven't had any issues.

I use Jellyfin to put some stuff for the toddlers. It works on Amazon Fire Kids, while Emby doesn't. It works ok, but it's definitely less polished than Emby, and I feel like it's not as stable. Could just be me though.

So looking at Mastodon as an example, everyone went on the main site and it wreaked havoc for a while, especially as the sites increased in size.

Might make sense to find a smaller site or roll our own.

It's "self-hosted" after all, I would suspect our use-cases and skill-set are probably better served running our own. Or setting up a topic at one of the smaller-tech focused sites.

Well shoot. Im sure it'll be a glitchy mess, but dang thats gonna be fun.

As a No Mans Sky preorder and day 1 player [to this day], it can't be that bad.

Now I just want more info on that watch
