NFS does symlinks but they have to be configured correctly.
Samba may have not given you issues in the past, but it also doesn’t give you any security.

Also never use samba. At the very least use NFS.
It seems to be quite a lot for the server it’s hosted on though (which is not the snappiest).
I’m working on it
It’s extremely light to run, and very easy to install and upgrade. I ran one for just myself without open registrations. The only con is that the community (self-hostable) version doesn’t allow js due to “safety reasons” so in order to have something like comments for your blog you have to either perform several janky CSS hacks or adjust the source code yourself. The only reason I chose wf was because of federation, but I eventually switched to standard WordPress with the federation plugin and now have comments and whatever else I want.
I started using Frigate and thought about going the Coral route but realized you didn’t need them if you have a relatively recent Intel CPU (6th gen or newer) as OpenVino with the iGPU is pretty much on par https://github.com/blakeblackshear/frigate/discussions/5742 .
A lot of the newer SBCs are being shipped with integrated NPUs/TPUs now as well. I would get a Coral if I were to use an older SBC or RPi or older PC as a camera server for object detection. Currently I have an ESP32-CAM watching a bird feeder but that feed goes to a modern server for bird species recognition but I could see a Coral as an option.
I like Librum for reading, as far as finding https://lemmy.ml/c/piracy may know
Traffic take longer? You’re talking about milliseconds. Also Wake On Lan has been baked into BIOS’s and Network cards for years so there’s no need to waste power. Is the issue that you just don’t have a PC? Regardless, if this is the path you want to take I think it’s a cool learning experience and I’m interested in seeing how it turns out.
But searxng is a search engine you access from a web browser, why aren’t you hosting it at home and accessing it from your phone via url?
I’m currently using it on v14, works fine.
I don’t know anything about eduroam but if it’s your uni’s network then you’ll have to settle for local access only through a personal router.

I will have to try out some flask apps. I like the ease of use they seem to have
That’s interesting. So you would need to install flask as well I presume, right? Or does the script pull that in?
I guess I don’t understand what is supposed to be serving the webapp to your client (browser) then without something like nginx or apache. I run searxng as well but I wouldn’t be able to access it, even on localhost, without a web server.
What are you using for the web server? There should be logs somewhere
!sbcs@lemux.minnix.dev would appreciate this.
It worked great for me for a long time but after the One UI 6 update on Samsung it became so slow that it’s now unusable on my phone.
Elaborate on why samba is bad when it comes to security? Like list a bunch of links like this or write a paragraph summarizing them like a chatbot?
