I have a Frame connected to an Apple TV. I’ve never let the Frame online to do anything. Its been perfect so far. The day it sneaks itself online through some means is the day it will probably go in the trash. I can’t even begin to imagine the amount of sludge it would download and wrap itself in if given half the chance.

I run proxmox on my server, VMs within that. It has an excellent backup service built in (not the proxmox backup server that’s separate) that you can set a schedule for and it keeps to it. Very customizable, all my backups (tested monthly) have restored fine for the past few years. If you’re looking for something to run your homelab, I highly recommend it.

Building a new, bigger, storage server using TrueNAS scale. I’ve been on CORE forever and it works well. Running out of space, though, and might as well upgrade the OS too.
