There’s always one of these comments and it’s always incredibly similar.

I love my micros.

I have a docker VM with a gpu passed through/external access (is this called production?) and another docker VM on another machine with no passthrough/external access. So both VMs are running multiple stacks/services and i just assign based on use case. Storage and memory are cheap imo and it’s the most secure way to do it with the skill level i have so it’s how i run it. I’m sure there’s better ways but 🤷‍♂️

I run Immich in a VM on Proxmox which gets backed up every 12 hours and all my photos are on the NAS which gets snapshotted every 12 hours and pushed to an external drive and a Hetzner box.

I’ll never understand why i can edit metadata on calibre, close out, upload it to calibre-web and it’s a crap shoot on what, if any, metadata populates.

This is how i do it and it’s very successful. I have a group block list and terms blocklist. Just a nice baseline too have before you set up your regular quality profiles.

I would gladly spend more for better (10mbit up atm) but all the upgrades get me to like 25 up and that’s it. I have no incentive to spend more for basically nothing. I hate it.

Yeah i cleared data and relogged. It’s just easier that way lol

I just made the switch to Komodo last week. Komodo lxc managing 4 VMs across two proxmox hosts. Easily added all the existing servers and it just worked. I think any of these systems are probably overkill for my needs but Komodo had the nicest “fresh out the box, find the important stuff right away” feel to it. My two cents.

The app can be basically unresponsive (my experience) as it’s checking to make sure everything is synced. It’s gotten much better over the last few months and the beta experience was wonderful it just broke (app side) a few times and told me an asset wasn’t uploaded even though it was.

It doesn’t actively delete but there’s an option to delete from device

8th gen Intel igpu and it’s transcoding streams and supporting a very active immich stack. I have 12 containers and 8 VMs. It’s been awesome.

I’ve got some old seagate NAS drives that are in my temp data array (isos, annasarchive, etc) that are going on 15 years powered on. Seagate may have botched a lot of drives during the time these came out but these drives were solid.

I used to run Linux VMs in HyperV. It felt dirty.

I’ve run Proxmox hosts with smb shares for literally a decade without issue. Performance is line speed now. Only issues I’ve ever had were operator error and that was a long time ago. SMB 3 works great.

+1 for Tdarr. 10tb almost 11 saved since I set it up.

Try out GoAcess.

IMO i used to test my multi box setup way back when with private servers.

I had looked into it for my running club because it had built in mailing lists through subscribers and such but it def feels like a CMS geared toward a commercial entity. I’m sure it’s great as just a blog setup but it just wasn’t what i was looking for.

I’ve yet to see a single email about any of the shit on here about Plex. I’m not defending any of these choices, just more confused as to who this applies to, where and when.
