the problem with FW's docs is that they are too opinionated, they expect a strict user and directory structure that should not be required for docker deployments. I modified the example docker-compose to use volumes instead of binding to host locations (except for the music:ro folder) and it didn't like it at all. I get that they prefer using ansible playbooks over docker, but even when starting from a fresh debian 12 install it'd fail, even though I followed that guide to the tee.

As someone else said on the thread, it's weird but there's no much choice for multi-library music-centric servers. Guess I'll have to wrangle Jellyfin into submission to tag my music properly.

tried jellyfin even before Navidrome: the problem with Jellyfin is that as good as it is tagging and managing movies and tv shows, it's atrocious at music management. Even though I painstakingly tagged and sorted my music using MusicBrainz Picard, there are tons of albums misplaced, or entire artists catalogs set as a single album. Same music collection on Navidrome worked OOTB and was perfectly sorted.

Indeed, tailscale/wireguard/zerotier are excellent options to keep only the bare minimum (or even nothing!) exposed to the world.

Whats up with Snowshoe Siamese that make them compulsively knead biscuits on soft things like that? Mine does exactly the same and he's all serious business, if I pet him while he's doing that he gets miffed af

It'd be cringe if it locked you to a single launcher. I've been running /e/ on my last 2 phones and it's solid. Also easier to switch iOS users over. FWIW lawnchair 2 works great

I'd say keep that machine as is, and whenever you build a new one, just put whichever distro you like. If possible I'd roll back to win10 and after support ends, keep that machine VLAN'd off the internet. This way you turn it into a music production appliance without disrupting your workflow

I'm running vanilla Fedora 40. Haven't installed that, and just checked and it's not even on fedora's repos

Don't forget about the whole desktop rain effect!

Same here, tho sometimes it makes a tantrum and I need to verify files so it resets the prefix. Kinda annoying when the mates are ready to dive and I'm here scanning files for 5min to redownload 18kb

If using a somewhat modern distro, this isn't an issue anymore (unless you run a really old OpenGL game).

I run my PC in this way with little to no performance degradation: monitors go to my motherboard (r5 2400g CPU with vega11 iGPU) and games use my RX 5700XT without having to do anything at all... Pretty smart handling tbh

Sadly unless you buy an old copy (on gog?) and use the WADs on gzdoom, doom is now Bethesda's and they integrated the account system for all the old doom and quake titles
