I hadn't heard of this. Looks like we're finally getting some sort of standard API implemented. It's about time. No reason folks should have to use Plaid or other to link accounts or pull data easily.

Huge fan of Ente Auth as well. Completely open source and available on F-Droid. Offers encrypted backups with cloud options so you can easily restore between devices if needed.

I swear it used to state if they ever had to charge for it free accounts would be grandfathered in, but now it just says free. Guessing the photo service covers its cost.

Ente photos is also awesome. I'm a huge fan and subscriber.

While not rust or for watching specifically, xdg-ninja can help you move files out if $HOME, if it's supported by the offending program.

That tracks. That was my plan, a PV on the node I intended to store jellyfin and potentially other sqlite data and back em up for restore later. Will have 2 nodes with m.2 ssd storage for that.

Hadn't heard of Talos before. Seems pretty neat. Since its run in memory I presume you could netboot it rather easily? I've not had issues with k3s myself but an immutable k8s distro sounds pretty nice.

I evaluated rook ceph and raw ceph but I don't think I need the benefits ceph offers as opposed to the increase in storage of a standard NAS with parity.

That is almost exactly what I have planned as well. Glad to hear it worked out for you

Ya I'm actually running k3s on em now but they dont do much as I'm switching them all over to eMMC or m.2 storage for the os.

I've installed k8s manually before and that's a fools errand. K3s is so much smoother.

Its a group of rock64 and old pi. Picked up a new orange pi5 as well so itll be a three server node k3s setup.

I was evaluating ceph but I think its overkill for my use. Too many drives needed 😅. I'm okay with parity and none of the data stored is irreplaceable. The stuff that is is off site backed up.

I really just want to mimic the Unraid drive setup and move to infra as code as its easier for me to maintain.

I may end up with proxmox in the end who knows.

Migrate from Unraid in a massive tower to a proper JBOD rig in a rack. Finally set up ARM SBC k8s cluster for most things alongside the old x86 hardware for a few services and running the NAS as I don't know how I'd hook that up to the SBCs.

Changes aren't lost on update. If you enable a sudo user/password, and make changes to the system that way, those changes can be lost when applying the new system image.

Its an immutable Arch-based distro and you have full readwrite to your home directory and all config, settings, and files within persist.

That will depend per game as far as I know.

Native vs wine/proton locations will vary and even when emulating windows some games use "My Games", "My Documents", %APPDATA%, etc for the save file location.

Regarding cloud saves, Heroic will let you download or force download them. After that you would just need to place them where they are expected for the game.

I use Heroic on desktop and deck and am a big fan personally.

This bigly. Everyone innately deserves respect. You can absolutely lose it for being a wanker.

"Respect is earned" needs to die in a fire.
