[🆕 Cosmos 0.12 - HUGE update! All in one secure Reverse-proxy, container manager with app store, integrated VPN, and authentication provider, now has a Full Monitoring suite with alerts and notifications (including presets for anti crypto miner hacks!) 📈📊 ~reddit

New Outlook is an automatic update to the Windows Mail app, it will look mostly the same.

Lenovo ThinkCentre Tiny, or another brand similar.

The pricing since the pandemic has been cheaper than Raspberry Pi4’s in my region.

That’s what I’m using, it barely uses more power than a pi & it’s a 64bit x86 4core with 16GB Dual Channel, 256GB SSD.

I’ve seen newer versions of what I have for cheaper than the average Pi4, I would never consider the Raspberry over this solution given how monolithically more powerful it is for how small they are.

I have Ubuntu 22.04 LTS Server without a desktop GUI and I control it on my PC via CMD with SSH user@localipaddress

I had no idea Sync cost this much.

Thanks for the link, I had been trying for a while and one of my domains doesn’t even work now after I changed too many DNS records.

How do you get it to work in root domains? I’ve only ever been able to get subdomains to work.

No matter how many times I authenticate with my card, it never works and their support is rather frustratingly low quality.

It’s great with subdomains, I don’t think it works on root Domains but it’s still extremely easy to set up.

I would recommend forcing HTTPS as well as creating a Page Rule enforcing strict SSL.

That is insanely expensive electricity

To add to my own post, I came across Cosmos which I will also be testing on top of all of the suggestions so far.

One thing I haven’t determined with Cosmos yet, is how this would impact friends/family access.

I’m also hosting both jellyfin & navidrome to see if I can get rid of plex for music.

Currently I find plex better at managing my library, but with all music related development going to plexamp and the devs decision to lock out my users from it despite having paid for plex plass for my users, I have to find an alternative that is user friendly.

I am hoping that once my library is sufficiently large, with the metadata related issues being resolved, I can finally introduce them to my music library.

I’m very bitter about them locking my server users out of features I’ve paid for, but unfortunately I still have to suck it up as it’s more user friendly.

You may need another tool for metadata management separate from either jellyfin/navidrome, if either failed to match I can’t seem to manually match or merge artists. Fairly frequently an album will display an artist in a way that isn’t interpreted as the same so it just makes a seperate artist for it with little metadata.

Plex does the same thing, the main difference is that I can manually modify how Plex displays its metadata and tell it who the artist is and that’s that.

With the others you have to work hard to modify the names and metadata outside.

They don’t want to invest in the core program features anymore, they only want more customers & content acquisition.

What they want is inevitably going to make us their competition, Plex’s FAST userbase growth will be the death of the original product.

Plex is more stable in most regards, we all would have happily moved over to jellyfin if it was nearly as comparable.

I’ve had a lifetime licence for a couple years, I’m becoming more and more bitter about the service but jellyfin isn’t as appropriate for the people I share with.

Plex isn’t improving its core service, in favour of focusing on new FAST customers, but there just isn’t an alternative so they get to abuse their position.

I’m currently testing Navidrome, which supports many subsonic based apps, my only issue atm is the lack of client side metadata management.
