I have raid 5 to protect against hdd failure and I run syncthing and duplicati on immich and other folders for on premise and remote backups.

What I’m curious about is how people make stuff like Immich and nextcloud available to other people outside their network? When I need to access something remotely I vpn in. I know I don’t have the knowledge to have my server connected to the open internet in a secure manner. I don’t think someone like family members would ever want to bother with anything other than a link and a login page so only me and my partner use these services.

I don’t think there’s any positive environmental impact tbh. Plastics made from petrol tend to be made from by-products of the gas industry and are cheap and readily available. Plastics made from bio-sources sound eco, but actively require land and water to produce and it’s not like they break down somehow better when released in the environment so are in fact net worse. Sounds like green washing to me.

On one hand supporting a product with parts only for 6 months after it’s discontinued is unacceptable. On the other hand, most manufactures don’t even do this or offer parts at all. It’s a pretty sad state of affairs when it comes to right to repair.
