WOW… we were trying to hunt down why my buddy’s forestor’s battery kept dying…

We even disconnected the wire that tells the alternator to stop charging the battery…

There’s still a bunch of outstanding API security issues last I checked, so it’s not secure enough for me to open to the web.

Teaching friends and family to use it with a VPN is a whole another can. Also, you’ll have to make sure the VPN is secure and users don’t have access to the rest of your network…

and then you’ll have to deal with client apps/access for mobile, android boxes, TVs, and Chromecasts…

I got lucky with the Plex Pass too so I can only ride this out to the end until Jellyfin catches up. (also, I’m not good to contribute code)

what happened with CWA? I was thinking of using it

I highly recommend openmediavault as well. Been using it for all my servers. After you get it installed, just make sure to install the omv-extras plugin so you can use docker/docker-compose from the UI (if you want).

Gives you a nice web GUI and is Debian based so you can dive into the CLI if you want.

Just be aware that you shouldn’t modify some files that are managed by Openmediavault (like the fstab) and never install a desktop environment or you’ll break openmediavault.

Did nextcloud ever fix the bug that would randomly destroy date metadata on photos and reset it to 1970? I had about 20% of my library affected (thank backup of backups!)

I was never able to get .heic previews working properly 2 years back either.

I’m using Immich now and its a lot less of a hassle after leaving beta and breaking changes behind
