I just have my vault default location saved on a cloud drive. iCloud in my case as I have an IPhone but I guess it could be done with any cloud or owncloud if you have a server.
I used to use Git, but it is easier to just move the vault on a network/cloud drive as you don’t need to pull/push. As obsidian auto save when you type a character this makes the sync instantaneous with zero effort.
I made the switch from YNAB cause !fucksubscriptions@lemmy.world
I only had a small understanding problem at the beginning but then I quickly managed to replicate my YNAB (and import the data).
Now that I’m used to it I don’t see any problems and I like it. I believe you can try it locally without running the server version.
The lack of mobile app could be a downside but I don’t budget on my phone.
A simple homemade NAS, mostly for hosting my Plex library, VPN+torrent and cloud.
The synology needs to be emptied, removed and sold.
The m2 Mac mini was hosting some docker like pihole and actual budget but those are now on another Mac mini used as a workstation, so this one will be sold as well.
It is very good but depend on what you want to host.
I have a second hand cheapest M2 with Asahi Linux and some container (like pihole) but not much. I like that it is small, silent and energy efficient (and it can run Xplane12 in 4k !). But I have an homemade NAS so most of the multimedia stuff and containers are on here and not on the MacMini.
The M4 seems incredible, but Asahi Linux only support M1 and 2 at the moment (it might work with M4 tho).
The problem with the mini would be disk space if you are looking for a NAS usage, although I have seen here on lemmy a dude making a Mac Mini NAS (can’t find the post anymore).
But even without Asahi, an M4 with Mac OS, docker and a VM if needed would be plenty of power for price and energy. You can also upgrade to a 10Gbe NIC if your network supports it. Plug it to some screens and you have a workstation + docker server in one place.
I feel you. This ITX build is replacing a giant supermicro dual everything beast. I just kept its HDDs and moved everything to the Unraid ITX + some docker running on a M2 MacMini that is always on anyway.
I said to myself that I’ll resell the supermicro on auctions but still haven’t started to disassemble it.
Fun fact about divorce. A cute Jonsbo N3 with big Noctua fans is way more for peace and love at home than a 20Kg Supermicro chassis.
Yeah I love it. It’s one of the only itx case with 8 hdds and a SAS backplate.
Honestly it was the hardest part to find, I waited for months before having an auction on one.
I was going to post the same link, I generally take inspiration from that forum and then adapt with what I can find on eBay etc for cheap. The prices they give are for US eBay and not always suitable to EU eBay.
I’ve just finished my new NAS using Unraid OS and some info from the forum.
It took me more than 6 months to find all the parts at a correct price but I was not in a rush.
It’s 2.5Gbe and not 10Gb SFP but you get the idea. The cost was really low (lower than 1000) because I already had the HDDs from an older server. It should be around 1500€ max with the disks.
The real downside of doing that is the time it takes but it’s also a kind of pleasure to hunt for parts and one day assemble them all.
Yup it’s probably what I’ll end up doing if I can’t find my refurbished M1 (and I already own an M2 mostly used to fly long hauls flights on Xplane 12).
But I’ll wait till they launch the mini M3 to see what becomes available on the second hand market, then simply VM until Asahi Linux is mature enough.
Well not really, I’m not the one working on making a native M* chip Linux (but those guys are indeed insanely crazy, they are reverse engineering Mac, writing hardware specs and even correcting bugs for Apple).
It’s just another cool geek project like you could do with a pi, and ofc have bonus geek point for having an Apple silicons run Linux natively.
Plus, I will be so glad to resell my huge 18kg supermicro server.
I want to do something like this to replace my huge ass dual xenon and have less noise and electricity consumption.
I’m looking for a refurbished M1 Mac mini with 10Gbe but still out of luck.
Why the M1 and not M2 or 3 ? Price of course but also because Asahi Linux will work perfectly on M1 before the new chips.
