- Comment on Why is Unraid popular in the self-hosting community ? 6 days ago:
Yep they changed this somewhat recently I believe? Like a year or two back, not sure - before my time.
Last I checked I think it’s now like $50 or $60 for the first year, and renewals are half that, so definitely not terrible.
- Comment on Selfhosting Sunday! What's up? 6 days ago:
At this point my whole setup is mostly in maintenance mode - I’ve got everything I need up and running, making some minor changes here and there (like swapping out StirlingPDF for Bento), and keeping things up to date. I only started this hobby about 6 months ago or so, and I’m really satisfied with where things are at. We’ll see when the next Big New Thing arrives.

Mixing disks is the #1 reason I went with unraid over any other option.
- Comment on Immich 2.1 Released with Better Slideshow Shuffle, New Notifications 1 week ago:
I’ve been running this setup for a few months now and haven’t looked back. Works super well, and essentially acts as an approval process for letting a container update or not.
The author also recently added a followup article to this one for using Forgejo instead, made migrating the setup super easy.
- Comment on Immich 2.1 Released with Better Slideshow Shuffle, New Notifications 1 week ago:
Nothing fancy. I use Backrest for all my backups, and a few of my plans just include the Immich directory. My NAS is an entirely separate machine so my local backups go there, while everything is simultaneously pushed to a backblaze bucket
- Comment on Has InZoi been better than the Sims in your opinion? 1 week ago:
Yeah the entire game is basically AI slop. Hard pass.
- Comment on Linkwarden downloaded the whole flipping Internet ... 1 week ago:
I stopped using it because it was constantly eating up nearly a gig of RAM at all times just by existing. The dev’s AI generated avatar is a big turn-off too.
I went back to Readeck and it works much better for me without hogging system resources.
- Comment on Once again, looking for PS2 game suggestions! 2 weeks ago:
The original Yakuza 1 and 2, though I’d recommend the Restored mods for each because the localizations (especially Y1’s dub) were notoriously awful. Hilarious at first, but that wears off fast.
When I first played the series I played the remakes first, and after going back and playing the originals I understood why so many series vets weren’t happy with the remakes. Y2 especially has some of the best feeling combat in the franchise.
- Comment on Another update that no one asked for 3 weeks ago:
I switched to OpenCloud a month or two ago and it’s been much better overall. A bit of a pain to set up but now it’s running smooth, does everything I need it to do and is much more performant than Nextcloud was for me.
- Comment on this level is amazing 3 weeks ago:
Absolutely. Still holds up extremely well in every aspect.

- Comment on 'Borderlands 4 is a premium game made for premium gamers' is Randy Pitchford's tone deaf retort to the performance backlash: 'If you're trying to drive a monster truck with a leaf blower's motor, you're going to be disappointed' 5 weeks ago:
I sunk 90 hours into Silksong since launch, and now I’m going through Nine Sols and playing PoE2 on and off. I won’t lie I’m hearing good things about BL4 minus the performance, but I’m not giving Randy a single cent.
- Comment on 1 month ago:
$40 per game apparently LOL
- Comment on [Silksong] Patch Version 1.0.28497 Now Live 1 month ago:
Not sure yet. They did say they were small so probably nothing too egregious, I’d imagine a contact damage nerf if anything.
Splinter is an odd choice to update at all but w/e, Moorwing I felt was tough but fair and really forces the player to learn the fundamentals.
- Comment on [Silksong] Patch Version 1.0.28497 Now Live 1 month ago:
Really don’t think the boss nerfs were warranted at all but the environmental damage change is very welcome.
- Comment on Hollow Knight: Silksong Sparks Debate About Difficulty and Boss Runbacks 1 month ago:
HK can be trivialized pretty early on by stacking charms and upgrades. Silksong spaces out meaningful upgrades in a way that really forces you to learn the ins and outs of the game before you can start buildcrafting.
FWIW, all the final bosses are easier than HK’s true final boss. The difficulty scaling starts with a rough curve but evens out over time.
- Comment on Hollow Knight: Silksong Sparks Debate About Difficulty and Boss Runbacks 1 month ago:
This is exactly it. I think the game is a goddamn masterpiece. The most infuriating fights feel like huge accomplishments, not just relief. Phenomenal game all around, but that difficulty curve isn’t for everyone. I can say the same about any Soulsborne game, love them to death but it’s definitely too much for some folks. Difficulty options are a good thing, if a compromise has to be made just have it disable achievements or w/e.
- Comment on Nintendo Wins $2 Million Lawsuit Against 'MiG Switch' Distributor 1 month ago:
The only games I’m remotely interested for it are DK and that FromSoft game. I’m not buying a new console from Nintendo of all companies just to gather dust aside from one game a year tops. I’ll wait for the emulation scene to do its thing.
- Comment on Hollow Knight: Silksong Sparks Debate About Difficulty and Boss Runbacks 1 month ago:
Yeah the game’s definitely harder than HK was, but by no means impossible. It’s not nearly as difficult as say Elden Ring for a recent-ish example.
None of the runbacks are egregious either. There’s just about always a bench barely 30-40 seconds away at absolute most.

Good shout! Admittedly I’ve been happy with Symfonium so I haven’t looked into FOSS alternatives but this looks really good. When I get a chance I’ll add it to the writeup for sure.

That’s something I’ve struggled to find so far unfortunately. Maybe something exists but I haven’t found an answer yet.
- Comment on Been seeing a lot of posts about replacing Spotify and such, so I wrote up a guide on how I did just that 1 month ago:
This is a bit over my own head as I’ve only been dabbling with it recently, but so far from what I’ve found that seems to be the case.
You can get creative with the Rules, but that’s always accepting a level of risk. Like to get Beszel and Komodo Periphery working on my VPS, I technically expose some services, but I keep Pangolin’s auth enabled and use the rules to restrict it to certain paths and only my own public IP (1. Allow: my IP, 2. Always deny 0.0.0.0/0).

I really need to get into a better habit of waiting for their friday events lmao, but yeah that’s where I get most of mine from as well. Otherwise, sometimes a physical record comes with a download slip or w/e, or I’ll just go find a download for something I already physically own. But for purchasing digital, Bandcamp is king right now, and I’m definitely interested in other options that are out there too.
- Comment on Been seeing a lot of posts about replacing Spotify and such, so I wrote up a guide on how I did just that 1 month ago:
At least from my understanding (specifically for Navidrome here), there’s no way to differentiate which user owns which track/album if they’re in the same location. Navidrome’s multilibrary configuration is basically just telling it “hey this folder is this library, that folder is that library”. A combined single folder is perfectly fine if users are fine with that, but in my use case my wife and I have dramatically different tastes so it makes more sense to separate it all out.
- Comment on Hollow Knight: Silksong Will Release for Only $20, Release Times Revealed 1 month ago:
It’s nuts LOL. I’m not sure how I clutched out the radiant boss clears but couldn’t handle the binding pantheons, I tried dusting it off this week and I’m definitely way too rusty now. Maybe I’ll revisit it after Silksong

Y e p. It’s a nightmare tbh
- Comment on Been seeing a lot of posts about replacing Spotify and such, so I wrote up a guide on how I did just that 1 month ago:
Appreciate it! I literally just slapped it together just for this post LOL but I’ll probably start using it some more, kinda therapeutic in a way. The assets are all recycled from my streaming days, may as well still get some use out of em
- Comment on Been seeing a lot of posts about replacing Spotify and such, so I wrote up a guide on how I did just that 1 month ago:
I think I made a note about that, but you’re right I should make it more apparent. I did use the blampe/hearring-aid build here which solves the issue for the short term, but I’ll add a clearer note to futureproof it for when the main builds are fixed.
- Comment on Baldur's Gate 3 or Clair Obscur: Expedition 33? 1 month ago:
And tbh since OP said they’re generally more into Soulslikes and such, Silksong comes out in 2 days for $20
