It’s definitely a YMMV situation. I’ve heard from lots of people that it runs solid as a rock in Docker, and from others like you and me where it’s flaky af.

I’m glad yours is stable! I don’t know why, but mine, if you’d cut a loud fart near the server Nextcloud would just shit the bed on me. God forbid I try to update Nextcloud.

Like you I had most plugins disabled, and I was the only user. I first ran Nextcloud using NextcloudPi on an rpi4, and that ran solid for like four years. However, when I repurposed that pi and moved Nextcloud to my server in Docker, it just would not reliably run for me no matter what I did. At that point I also wasn’t really using Nextcloud anymore so I just abandoned it as not worth the effort.

That’s what I was going to say!

I abandoned nextcloud entirely a couple years ago. It was just too damn flaky (self hosted via docker).

Chiming in for Radicale. Been running it for a couple years. It’s great

That’s just how retail works.

That’s because Apple, as they love to do, decided to make their own special version of 2fa within their little garden.

Y’know, instead of going with the accepted totp method.

I still have all my cards and still play with friends, but the Pinkerton move was the last straw for me. I haven’t, and won’t ever again give WotC money.

I used to love playing MtG. I don’t really anymore, and I won’t give another dime to that shit company. Fuck WotC and fuck Hasbro.

Came here looking for Little Bobby Tables with the link loaded up in my clipboard!

What exactly did you install? Depending on the OS and its software center, you could have installed the Jellyfin client or the Jellyfin server.

I don’t know what you know, so forgive me if this is overly simplistic.

Regardless of which you installed, one is useless without the other. Getting Jellyfin set up starts with the server which can be installed and setup a number of different ways.

If your goal is to set up a media server so you can watch your media on different devices and platforms, then Jellyfin is a good option for this.

If your goal is to watch media on the pc you bought, and you don’t care about watching it on other platforms or devices, then you’d be better off with something like VLC which you can use to watch/listen to media files on that computer.

If the goal is a media server the next question is, do you plan on using the pc as a server for more than just Jellyfin? If the answer is no, you just want Jellyfin, then installing the server from software center, flathub, or whatever cli package manager your distribution uses will be fine and setup should be relatively simple.

If you plan to use the pc as a server for a number of different pieces of software, getting familiar with Docker and containerization is a good idea, in which case I’d point back to the video I linked in my previous comment.

If you want more details on any of this I’m happy to elaborate. I’m no expert, but I’m happy to share what I’ve learned, and the resources I’ve used to learn.

Wow. Some of that announcement was serious buzzword salad.

In concept, as a fan of WoT, I’m definitely interested. And this is a use of AI I feel is not terrible. But a subscription? Probably not gonna work for me.

What are the details of your current setup? What’s the host operating system, is Jellyfin installed as an app, as a docker container?

FWIW, The Awesome Open Source YouTube channel helped me a ton, including getting my own Jellyfin server up and running. His updated Jellyfin video is here.

Wait. An email just to get a download link AND a cloud account. Fuck that.

Exactly. I generally like typing out my commands because I’m learning and it helps me remember what I’m doing and what the commands mean/how they work. And if it’s a particularly long one I’ll make an alias for it.

No problem

Edit: tl;dr is that Grav worked out of the box.

Bear in mind that I just started messing around with Grav, so I’m no expert. With that being said, I tried 11ty and Hugo (spent 2-3 weeks messing around testing them).

What I was looking for was a static site generator that let me easily use a simple/clean theme, and would generate the webpages from markdown files.

What prompted me to look for this was my Wordpress site breaking. I’m currently self hosting wordpress via docker. While retooling my server (install updated server os, import raid, relaunch containers), my Wordpress container broke. It was still serving my website, but I couldn’t do anything on the backend because of a database permission error. I had just spent a day fighting with and fixing database permissions on another container, and I decided I wanted to look into these ssgs and see if it would simplify dealing with my website.

11ty seemed really promising until I tried to theme it with a starter pack. What was confusing to me at first was that 11ty doesn’t theme like you think of theming something like Wordpress. You don’t set up/intstall 11ty, and then download/install a theme. Instead, you use a starter pack, which is a theme that includes an implementation of 11ty. (You can write your own theme with a barebones 11ty setup, but I’m not a web dev and don’t want to be.) I must have tried 15 different 11ty starter packs, and not a single one of them worked and/or was maintained, and these were the ones linked/provided on the 11ty website.

Had I found a pack/theme that worked (and met my criteria of being a simple/clean theme), I’d have been very happy with 11ty. The core of 11ty worked great for me (take a .md file and make it html), but the starter pack situation IMO is a disaster to anyone who isn’t a competent web dev.

Hugo was much simpler when it comes to theming, just git clone a repository (which, I get is not ideal for everyone, but also, isn’t all that different from downloading a theme zip file for something like wordpress). Hugo seemed promising to me, but despite the relative ease of cloning a repo for a theme, I couldn’t get Hugo to generate a single page of content. I read the docs, watched tutorials, got frustrated, kept getting errors, and noped out.

Grav when I tried it was exactly what I was looking for. Out of the box it has a nice simple theme. I can drop a markdown file into a folder and it automatically generates it. That part is even better than Hugo, 11ty and other ssgs. You don’t have to run a command to generate or edit an html file from a markdown file. It watches the content folder and when it finds new/changed .md files it auto generates them.

I also really liked that Grav easily did what these other ssgs claim is easy to do (but in my experience failed to deliver on), and provided some additional complexity for making management a little easier via the web ui.

Overall I like Grav, but I’m not actually using it. I ended up fixing the database permissions on my wordpress container. I’m going to keep Grav around in case I decide to migrate, or if I ever decide to launch another site/project.

Saving for a good mattress is definitely a priority. For whatever it’s worth, regular yoga can help mitigate the damage and discomfort of the current mattress.

I’d recommend better cable management. If you’re gonna use the outlet on the wall by your bed, I’d recommend some kind of power strip with a longer cord so you can run the strip behind your desk rather than having all those plugs and cords jutting out of the wall right by your bed.

Even better would be a power strip and extension cord combo to utilize the outlet on the wall opposite of your bed. Run the cord around the room along the baseboard to get the power strip behind the desk, and to keep the cord in place along the baseboard, you can secure it with some gaffer’s tape.

Same with that phone or Ethernet cable you’ve got a huge tangle in that runs across the walking space of your floor. It’s a tripping hazard and a bit of an eyesore. Running that around the room along the baseboard, with the excess gathered and secured behind your desk will make a huge difference. You can also secure that with some gaffers tape to keep it neat and in place if you choose to run it this way.

Finally, I know it may not be affordable depending on your situation, but a bed frame would do a lot too. If you can’t afford it, I’d suggest keeping an eye out at Goodwill and/or whatever thrift/resale shops you have access to as you can often find bed frames and other furniture at really good prices.

I was finding the same with ssgs, until I ran into Grav. You might like it. It’s got a web ui kind of like Wordpress, and you can write right from the web ui, but you can also just write markdown files and dump them into a directory to generate posts/pages.
