What is that?

If it's a Lemmy community, then most likely yes.

It might be a good idea to get a power monitoring plug to get some data into what would save the most power while still keeping temps where you want it

Thanks I'll see if I can get the thumbnails on the SSD for more snappyness.

Thanks I'll look into this, I've never setup ZFS but the hardware I need to comes next week. looking forward to it

Instead of Eat the Tarrifs, how about we Eat the Rich?

I'd want to give Immich read only rights, would need to see if that is possible.

 

I've currently got Nextcloud AIO hosted in Proxmos on a NUC to play around with what works and what doesn't and get a feel for self hosting, and I'm loving it.

Space on the NUC is an issue, 512GB just won't cut it if I move my whole family over.

So I've ordered a ODROID H4+ and will be setting it up as a NAS with 2x 6TB HDD's in a ZFS mirror (it arrives next week) and then I'll move everything over to it.

Is it possible for me to use the 1TB SSD to save all data excluding Media (Photo's and Videos) and use the HDD's for the rest as they take up lots of space.

I'd also like to then use Immich to scan the Media on the HDD's to use it as a viewer (And sync phone media etc. through nextcloud because I find it to be more stable, and then everything will still work even if Immich is down)

What are your thoughts? Is this a good idea? Is it over complicated? How would you set it up?

PieFed has Topic-Based Organization, Cross-Post Deduplication, Improved Onboarding Experience etc.

You can export your Lemmy content and import it to PieFed.

Try it out for a day, you'd probably want to switch

I'm keen to see people's review of PieFed, IMO for the general population it will be a much better user experience.

De-Duplication alone is huge.

I just wish it worked with Voyager

Wish there was a tl;dr

I think that's overkill, he already knows how to drive.

He just needs to learn how to use the clutch. A few YouTube videos, and a few hours of practice getting used to the clutch and he should be good

Lemmy vs PieFed (piefed.social)

I've been on Lemmy for ~3 Months and it's nice but picking a instance, figuring out which web UI works for me, figuring out which Mobile App works for met etc. was a lot, and most people would have given up.

I've been using PieFed for the last few days, and wow I like it so much more, it solved so many of the UX issues that Lemmy has.

These features make a BIG impact, most of the common things people on Reddit complain about when you promote Lemmy isn't a issue on PieFed.

My favourite feature is de-duplication, on PieFed if I view eg. this post https://piefed.social/post/749818#comment_6102866

It combines/aggregates it with cross-posts/reposts de-duplication example image
So I can see it in one place, and see all the comments in one place.

Have you tried out PieFed? What are your thoughts?
