Fair enough! The disadvantage is that, as opposed to Dropbox and similar, I have go into a file at the root of the synced folder, rather than keeping that config near to where itcs relevant.

Thanks for the names!

That’s… a very good idea. I should do that anyway.

Forgejo for projects and syncthing for data is probably perfect, thank you!

I tried with both, but I didn’t figure out how if such an option exists. I did manage to do the opposite (keeping files uploaded but not having them locally), both with and without VFS (with VFS it’s in a context menu in nautilus, without it’s in the desktop app).

it does! I use it to sync my music, but I feel like it’s not the right tool for the job here.

I don’t want to “have the folders connected”, I want to have the ability to sync files easily, while excluding specific folders and files.

I have. It hasn’t worked very well for me, the docs weren’t great (though I’m looking at them now and they do seem better?) and it broke in strange ways.

To be honest, I don’t think it’s worth the bother. This is just an i3-5 something, and I got all the working parts off of it. But it’s good a good idea, thanks!

Well, I fully disassembled it, and I’ve found some components that are heating up a lot and probably making the buzzing noise.

However I have no idea what they are, if they’re the problem or some connected component. The label doesn’t return anything, so I think this 'uns a goner :(

Thank you! I’m not gonna try and fix the box itself, but somebody suggested it might be the power supply.

I… don’t know why I didn’t think of that. I’ll have to check if I have another.

Yes, it’s laptop RAM

I got this one for free because a company couldn’t be bothered to reinstall windows

Edit: not sure what you mean by “more setup”, you should be using a reverse proxy either way.

I’m using cloudflare tunnels (because I don’t have a static IP and I’m behind a NAS, so I would need to port forward and stuff, which is annoying). For me specifically, that means I have to do a bit of admin on the cloudflare dashboard for every subdomain, whereas with paths I can just config the reverse proxy.

Oh, that’s a good idea, thanks!

Well! Thanks!

What’s your container for the IT tools? Something custom?

Backups? What backups?

Ik it’s bad but I can’t be bothered.
