Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
  • ย 

    Please report posts and comments that break these rules!


    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't fork-bomb your computer.

    Syncthing-fork has been recommended over Syncthing for the last few years. That's what I've been running for about that long with no issues. I like having access to a copy of the actual files on the NAS too which a borg backup doesn't provide unless you do an additional borg mount. Syncthin-fork does other things too, light keeping a keepass database synced on devices. But yeah, nothing syncthing can do over a scheduled rsync script... I just have not found that to be as reliable on Android as it is in Linux.

    Syncthin-fork has never stopped working for me. I would notice because it also puts my pictures into a folder that gets read by immich and I often check immich to look at my photos. I run immich differently than intended where I don't do the photo backups with it. I only use it as a gallery client on my existing organized directory structure of images. It only has read only access.
