I’m a bit of a noob so I ended up going with Ubuntu after trying a few other distros. I’m sure I could have fixed the issues I was having but it was easier to troubleshoot and find solutions online due to the larger install base.
Also more things were just working out of the box
Weirdly, I’m more or less okay with this. Hope someone gets my ballin’ Teriyaki sauce recipe
Kidding aside usually this type of thing bothers me, for example I’m actively trying to find alternatives to Google services. But I feel like I’m not giving up that much information here.
I just want a notes app that is intuitive and pleasant to use, and I really like notion’s UI
Actually you are right, this is really annoying. Its also quite a “heavy” app, takes quite a while to start up, and I have to re-login constantly.
What’s wrong with notion?
It sounds like it could easily run these. You could probably get away with a newer raspberry pi for them so the nuc should have no issues.
For reference the heaviest thing for me has been Home assistant os, which needs dedicated ram and cores for it’s VM. I’ve had no issues with running almost a dozen services on a 4790k based system along HA including: Immich, plex, radarr/sonarr/prowlarr/etc, usually a dedicated game server for Valheim or Minecraft or something, and some other lighter services.
I think ram (16gb) is going to be the limiting factor in my case but I haven’t hit that limit yet
I wouldn’t even necessarily mind paying a subscription but having a monthly search limit just gives me anxiety.
Also using Immich, can recommend it.
There are still some rough areas though. For example its not possible to further share/download photos sent to you in a shared album. And the ios app is a bit janky when swiping through photos. No slideshow mode either.
Overall very usable though and getting updated constantly.
Share button can export any photo. For photos only in the cloud there is a download button to sync to your device at the top when you open the picture.
