I’m still learning myself, but am planning to use NetBird instead of Tailscale to access my VMs and apps without exposing them to the web. So far, it’s been pretty easy to set up.

Remember when Newegg was cool and going after patent trolls?

I’ll check him out, thanks!

That helps, thank you!

Thanks for the clarity! I’ll give this a shot when I get back home.

Bookwyrm has been fantastic at cataloging all of the books I don’t read! Man, I miss having an attention span.

I feel like dancing! Wiped my SPI, installed the OPi Debian to my eMMC using dd commands, and I’m back in business.

I give it 1 week before I break it again trying to do something stupid.

For the uboot, I think I tried both of these: https://github.com/schneid-l/u-boot-orangepi5 https://github.com/orangepi-xunlong/u-boot-orangepi

I’m not sure what exactly changed, I used the same SD card, the same OPi image, used Balena Etcher to burn the image to the card… this time it booted into the live image from my SD! It’s a start!

Now I’m just trying to wipe my SPI of UEFI, reinstall uboot, then do a fresh install of Debian and try again with PXVirt.

Yeah, I was also starting to lean toward putting NextCloud on the OPi. There’s just not much happening on my OPi and I was only hesitating from trying that because I didn’t think the OPi could handle it, but it’s worth trying.

Thanks for the feedback!

1. I may not have labeled that accurately, I just plan to use Tailscale to access these services from specific authorized devices.
2. I meant “before I do something that is a pain to correct”. Like starting with the wrong OS or file system format.
3. My plan is to build a media server which will include 4k media, so I think my storage may need to grow over time… maybe TrueNAS is something I can add later if needed?
4. I guess the reason I was thinking of 2 separate machines is that I’ve heard using an OPi as a media server or NextCloud server will go really slow and potentially cause other issues. Plus I already have an old computer doing nothing right now, just needs new SSDs.

Used the whiteboard tool in Clickup. It’s a lot like FigJam.

Could you expand on that? If I were looking for federated platforms that get a lot of activity from artists posting their work, what would you recommend?

I feel ya. I have a dog and three cats, but so far have not had an issue with hair or cable chewing. The frame is essentially just a kit of 2020 extruded aluminum t-slot rails with connectors. If I were to do this again, I would probably not go with a kit and instead just buy the rails and connectors I need for my specific motherboard/components. Also, any extra rails/connectors you get could go toward a DIY 3D printing frame (that’s my next project)!

For my ITX build I went with this open frame so I can really customize the placement of each component and keep everything nice and compact. I’ll probably build a cover to go over this frame at some point.

Also, I just want to add that this is an incredible app and I really appreciate all of the work you put into this!

I’m trying out those settings you suggested and it does seem like it would mostly solve the issue for me, but you can see from the volume of comments that I am not alone in being unaware of the magic combination of settings that would make the default behavior of the app less frustrating.

I think it’s still a good idea to either prevent the back button from taking the user from their Posts page to the Communities page, or to include a method of returning to the last spot in the Posts page.

In LA, I would have said the Cineramadome, but they closed during pandemic. We’ve still got Egyptian, Aero, and Nuart though.
