As an alternative, Unraid. While it’s paid, it strips away a lot of the hassle you mentioned in your post. Has a built in shop where you just click, set up ports/shares and docker containers just spin up for you.
While I’m not a huge fan of their recent subscription model change, I do love their OS (I got I’m still grandfathered into the pre-existing perpetual license.
I wonder if something like hoarder might suit your needs and you can filter purchased based on tags
This comment just gave me ptsd due to a shitty keyboard I had growing up, they decided to put the sleep button (is that even still a thing? 👴) right next to the delete key I hit that thing on accident so many times :(
Trillium although I wish it has multiple users on the same instance, other than that it’s amazing and suits my needs.
Gohardrive has those 10tb for under $90, they’ve been used for like 5 years but if it’s non essential data they should last a long time and might be a good option.
I like plex better but damn is it bloated, had to take a almost an hour digging through settings to turn all those plex features off. Now it feels more back to basics.
Also of note, truenas uses kubernetes, I’d say 90%+ of companies I’ve worked at, k8s is overkill for their user base. In a home apps setting it’s ridiculous to think you will ever need something like that.
Depends on how much you want to spend on your own setup. Unraid, while paid, is brain dead easy.
Not sure but back in the day you could just install custom channels though their portal. A lot of them got taken down all the time because we’ll they were streaming free shit.
Make sure you’re straighting them out before hand with the tip of a screwdriver makes it easier. Also look for rj45 connectors with a load bar, makes it a lot easier since you can feed them one at a time and make sure they are aligned properly, often they also come with pass through connectors and you should be able to do that in no time.
Just as irritating as seeing people use linters only to have a lot of files with @ts-ignore all over the place… Like why even bother?
Immich but it has a lot of breaking changes, good news is that going stable is on their road map for this year. They also joined FUTO.
