I’m in a similar place with books and comics. Of course, nowhere near the Jupiter size collection of media you have, but easily 2.5TB+ of just books and comics.

My wife, my kids and I are all avid readers, so we are always sharing some book or comic arc. We’re all rerunning all of Lobo’s arcs, it was Deadpool a couple of weeks ago (that should tell you all anyone needs to know about our family 😜)

OK Netflix, you don’t count 🤣

I know they are open source and ‘acknowledged contribution’, but have no idea where they are headquartered. Although it’s very likely also US based.

Because this is also part of enshitification. What you mention is just another symptom of it.

I’m not waiting for that shit to happen. I just moved over to headscale and am done with tails ale. They will enshitify, it’s a matter of when, not “if”.

Eso es correctísimo. I don’t want ANY AI in my servers looking for anything, regardless of if they are crawlers or if it’s on behalf of some lazy fuck.

Yeah, but this is about self hosting and it’s costs, so the comparison is relevant.

He’s probably referring to just Chromecast without the Google TV module. Jellyfin works great for me as well on the Chromecast w/GTV

Didn’t dig in too far into the options, but those prices are crazy low. Thanks for pointing us there.

Absolutely. Maybe I’m a bit biased. I can’t stick to anything immutable (other than my Steam Deck, and believe me, I’ve tried many times), and always come back to distros I can have absolute control over.

However, I have all my employees running Silverblue (mostly because none of them even know what CLI means 🤣).

Chances are that, if you do break something, it’ll be on the Windows side.

Bazzite is very solid for new users as it’s very convoluted to access and modify anything system related.

Having said that, if you have any intention to learn how to use Linux distros, and eventually remove Microsoft from your life, immutable distros like Bazzite will limit you dramatically, so I suggest you start with a regular “mutable” distro. Now, if your intention is just to have something that works, scape Windows every now and then, and come back to Windows, it’s hard to beat an immutable distro.

My name is none of your business, and I approve this suggestion.

For most of us using Linux distros for years, we already have a preferred distro that is highly unlikely to be Ubuntu or even Debian based, but for first-timers, I honestly believe Mint is the way to go. But seeing how mint has been a flop for you (as another poster said, it’d be great to know what went wrong) an immutable distro (like Bazzite) would fit your current needs better, but these distros are not the best way to start learning about Linux and eventually migrate from Windows entirely.

Awesome. I’m very curious about your findings. Looking forward to it.

That’s a good idea, and maybe even Henry from Techlore.

Done. Are you going to be sharing the results here? That would be cool.

I just told my wife she’s going to have to share now🤣

You give the info, and then a link to the source? There’s still hope for humanity 😉

I love how this went from “.deb” to “Mullvad VPN repo configuration” 🤣

I’m already married, but, would you marry me? I’m guessing you’re probably very useful to have around.

Funny how that’s the case for most people 🤣
