I guess so. Your question was
Would anyone be interested in something like that?
Which most of us have answered with a clear “no”. So I guess we’re done here.
Comment on anyone willing to walk a noob through getting some services running?
helenslunch@feddit.nl 1 year agoThis shit is so annoying and I’m done explaining why. I gave a detailed account of my situation and what I’m asking for but you want to pick apart the title of my post. Go away.

Literally no one has done that. Most of you criticized me for daring to ask the question. If your answer is no, feel free to just move along with your day.

I didn’t read the other comments, only the main post in which I do not see what you define as “detailed account of my situation”. You said that you have an issue with some software (you did not even bother to specify which) and that you want people to hop on Jitsi to duke it out with you. Had it been me, I would’ve posted logs, posted what I’m trying to achieve and why I’m unable to do it so far or where I would appreciate additional explanation. You want people to help you but you do not make it any easy for them to do.
But that’s okay, stay arrogant and we’ll see how far it gets you.

It wasn’t in any other comments. It was in the original post.
Actually I did.
Logs of…what, exactly?
I did.
Did that also.
Maybe try reading more carefully before calling someone out for some bullshit.

You didn't. You very specifically asked for someone to commit to helping you personally with nonspecific issues rather than asking for help from a general group for a specific issue (which would have been more likely to get help).
Maybe, but what youre trying to achieve isn't getting a helpful answer for a specific question. You're trying to get someone to commit to helping you for an unspecified amount of time with an unspecified amount of problems. CriticalMass is telling you that is a bad way of obtaining help for a problem anywhere except in school and a job classroom. This is neither of those.
No, he read your post just fine. You just don't like the answers you're getting. Asking for help with a specific thing is exactly what these forums are for. Asking for help getting started is even okay. We love sharing a good tutorial for getting a new user started with a specific software.
You aren't doing any of those things. You're asking for someone to spend hours of their time, in a call with you, to walk you through a process that has hundreds of online tutorials already out there. You're also getting mad when people tell you that what you're after is not what this discussion forum is for.
Maybe try reading more carefully before calling someone out for some bullshit.

I don’t know what to tell you. It’s in the OP. Literally everything you need to know is in the OP.
Yes, that’s correct. Because I don’t have a specific issue.
I disagree. Seems like a great way to get help to me.
And I clearly explained why those tutorials are not helpful. Wanna take a guess where? It’s in the OP.
Because they’re not the “answers” I asked for.
I’m getting agitated because people are being dicks just for asking a question. Who made you the arbiter of the intention of this forum?
If you don’t want to help, just shut the fuck up, and move the fuck on. Not that hard.

No you didn’t. You said that you had set up TrueNAS, that means it’s working. I inferred from a different comment that you’re actually experiencing problems with TrueNAS and even left a reply to hopefully help you.
It was an example. I did not expect you to take it literally. If things aren’t working, then we need to know which things aren’t working. Screenshots, logs, even “I can’t connect to my own server” is better.
I had to infer from other comments that you’re having trouble with TrueNAS. Perhaps it’s because English is my 3rd language, but clearly the point didn’t get across to others in this thread either.

Nah they were quite clear they need help setting up “some services”, isn’t that specific enough for you? Ha! They really do not know the magnitude of what they are asking for. I tried to be helpful and encouraging and point them towards a path of self learning but after reading all the comments and the way they respond to people, I’m done and they’re going on my block list. It’s clear from their attitude that this person does not want to do anything for themselves and is doomed to fail at self hosting. Anyone getting involved is asking for pain.
