Most of the time I use Nextcloud. If I can’t wait for the file to sync I’ll use either email or a jump drive depending on which devices I’m moving data between. I
If I remember that I can, I’ll occasionally use bluetooth to send from my phone to one of my computers.
Last I checked (roughly 2 years ago, preRAM price spike) SBCs weren’t the most cost effective option for self hosting anymore. I would actually look into used thin clients or desktops. Even new, the hardware is often less expensive and more capable than SBCs. Sometimes they’re also more power efficient.
As for community support for the SBCs other than RPi, for most of them it has been close to non existent. Some better than others but the RPi was the community favorite and got all the attention due to its low price at the time.
Meh. Reminds me a bit of the kerflufel when SystemD came out and largely replaced the V init system that came before. A whole bunch of religious adjacent arguments, at high volume with not much intelligence or understanding. It’ll pass.
All I need to know is does it solve a problem I have, does it work, is it stable, and is it secure.
Only warning I’ll give is that you should probably not get too used to your off site LLM models (Claude, GPT or whatever you’re using). Pricing seems unsustainable and the hype makes it feel like a bubble similar to the dot com bubble.
Might want to devote some time to trying to bring your LLM usage in-house. There is no telling who will survive the crash and it’s not always the “best” one.
Why so many downvotes. Looks like a decent project. Am I missing something?
Not sure. Depends on how many of my family are using our home services that month and how often and from where.
I know I will regularly hit my mobile providers soft cap of 80GB at some point in the middle of the month on just my cell phone.
I figure the household hard line probably sees 3 or 4 TB per month at a minimum.
Until about a year ago, I was just using Jellyfin for all of my media. For music I was using the phone app FinAmp.
I set up Navidrome when I ran into a bug that made music playback unreliable. Jellyfin fixed the bug and it’s back to being rock solid, but I still mostly use Navidrome for music.
Honestly I think the only reason why I stuck with Navidrome is that it has better playlist support. Building playlists still sucks but it sucks a little less in Navidrom as it can actually import playlists made elsewhere. Other than that, Navidrome has a better web interface for music.
I tend not to sail the Sea’s very often. I generally prefer to buy the albums or borrow them from my friends or the local library, rip them to Flac and then stream them to my phone using either Jellyfin or Navidrome. When I just want a radio station, I’ll open up Spotify. Many years ago, I had a collection of online radio stations I’d listen to, but over time they either closed their public streams and required an dedicated app or died off completely.
On your data bandwidth issue, both Jellyfin and Navidrome support on demand transcoding and can stream any bitrate you might want. There are options for it both in the web app and in most of the phone clients I’ve run across. I generally have my phone apps set to 96k MP3 as I can’t really hear a difference most of the time, at least not with the headphones I have in combo with the background noise that is generally around me and my preexisting hearing damage. Most folks can’t tell a difference between CD’s and a 128k mp3.
As for torrenting, I can say that you will probably want a paid VPN running AND active any time your torrent software is running. Beyond that I would recommend you check out !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com for more information.
That sounds cool! Been looking for something like this for a while!
It’s been a while since I used it, but I think kmymoney has some basic features in that direction.
