  • If I understand well you want to have the same OS, software, configuration and files on different devices.

    You could have a look at nixos.

    I’m doing something similar, I have a computer in my office for work and a laptop at home for personal use and a bit of work.

    I have a config shared between the two computers, they share similar modules but also have their own specificities.

    This way when I configure VSCode for example I get the configuration synced on both.

    For synching my files I’m using a synology NAS.






  • I’m using it for work.

    At first it was just me, I needed a remote access and I was not a big fan of using the chrome remote desktop that was the “solution” by their IT technician.

    So I’ve setup tailscale and used it to access the shared folders and Remote Desktop.

    After that, with my boss approval, I’ve set it up for several others person in the company and external consultant. Honestly it’s great, it just work, it’s secure and it is so easy to set up. With just few WhatsApp messages I can give instructions to have the remote desktop running, even to people not especially comfortable with computers.
