Yeah, now that I got the storage I save a whole lot more locally. GOG offline installers is probably the largest folder on my NAS though. :)

It is now. ;-)
Cheers for the site!

Yeah, that sounds unreasonable. I guess I’ll have to use yt-dlp more to backup videos I enjoy.

Half your age plus seven makes the gap smaller the younger you are.
20/2 + 7 = 17 or a 3 year gap
30/2 + 7 = 22 or an 8 year gap
40/2 + 7 = 27 or a 13 year gap

Options if it’s to protect against local disasters such as fire:

1. Having a NAS at a family member / friends house as a backup location for your NAS (over vpn) is an option. Works best if they also need an offsite backup with you being able to spare space for it on your NAS in return.
2. Having at least two usb drives as backup locations for the NAS and rotated as often as you think necessary and having at least one stored offsite at a family member / friends house.
3. Rent a proper 1U rack space in the city data centre and setup your own “cloud”, definitely the most expensive option and total overkill if offsite backup is the only reason.

Personally I would probably go for option two and bring the usb drive with me for a weekly coffee with my parents, they’d enjoy the visit and I enjoy knowing that my backup isn’t in the hands of Amazon. I’d go for option 1 if my internet was better.

Thanks for sharing!
Out of curiosity - what kind of glitches?

Seems to exist some other screen sharing alternatives when I search around but I know nothing about them, f.e.
https://github.com/echoshare/echoshare
https://github.com/mira-screen-share

Haven’t tried it myself but there’s Jami
https://jami.net/
https://git.jami.net/savoirfairelinux
https://docs.jami.net/en_US/

edit: doesn’t seem to have audio sharing when screen sharing

As a result I imagine more users will look at other offerings such as Jellyfin.
