  • It went great, actually. Very easy to build in. I did end up taking the bottom panel off to make part of the install easier. Cooling seems to be really solid. It can get a bit loud when gaming due to the way shape of the vent holes in the side of the case, but I usually have headphones on anyway.. Much quieter if I were to leave the right door off (CPU side), but obviously not an option. The thing is dead silent in normal usage, the fans only really kick on for me during game sessions.

    • Miniflux
    • Wallabag (also testing Omnivore)
  • I don't mind them. I like to hear what drove people away from Windows and into Linux' loving embrace. I'm still pretty new myself, so grain of salt I suppose.

  • Hell yeah! Welcome, from an admittedly also new full-time Linux user.

  • Any DE that looks remotely like Windows. My journey to Linux began with a seething hatred of the way Microsoft does pretty much anything. Including the Win10 UI. So when I jumped ship I wanted something completely different. I tried Gnome on a couple distros but ultimately landed on Pop!_OS and really like it!

  • Ah, ok. That makes more sense. I really like the OS so far. Made my first leap into Linux only mid 2023ish. And it's been awesome!

  • Found the issue!

    In order to have tasks created outside of NC tasks appear in NC, the category needs to be set as Tasks. At least I think that's what the menu item is called. I've included a screenshot and until now didn't notice that the categories I created in Tasks.org are under a "local lists" heading. No wonder they don't sync. Seems like there should be a way to still set categories and have 2-way sync, but for now this is a working solution for me.

  • Just double checked to make sure I have it set that way. What is weird is that it can apparently sync marking a task complete back to NC. Just can't get a task created in the phone app to show up in NC.

  • Seafile would be sick too, but very unlikely. They have a SeaDrive client, but it's not quite as nicely integrated as the Gnome stuff.

  • That seems strange regarding rclone. I've used that with success with G drive, backblaze B2, and I drive e2. Any errors or logs you can see?

  • Came here to say the same. Works pretty damn well too. I also have mine connected to a Nextcloud sever because I'm trying to ditch the big G

  • Since you sound like you know what's going on with Pop I'll ask: what is Cosmic? I understand it's a DE, but is it replacing Gnome entirely and a new DE built from the ground up? Seems like every update assumes you know more than I do :)

  • Termius because somehow I glitched the free trial for like 8 months and love having all the hosts saved and synced across devices. The android app is pretty damn slick. Can save frequent commands and has a password clipboard thing, probably not the right way to describe it. That said, if I'm just opening a local sesh on my Pop!_OS desktop I use the bundled one for that.

  • That great, thanks for the info. I was able to get Wireguard setup in unraid but they make it pretty easy, so I didn't have a problem. I just didn't think about connecting to the entire network, not just the server.

  • Yeah I know some of those words...

    I'm still a newb but I'll have a look at that link, thanks!

  • Well, I didn't realize that was an option to be honest, lol. I am having some issues with that box at the moment though so having a pi or my router acting as the gateway appealed to me with it's longer uptime

  • Most services are on the unraid box. But I had a pi running Pi-hole for a long time (switched to adguardhome) and wanted that separate from the main server in case it went down. Pis boot up a lot faster than my server hardware and then you still need to start the array and mount drives. Having AGH on a Pi as primary DNS means minimal internet outages caused by my tinkering. I was given the 4 and put it in a really cool case that can fit a M.2 or 2.5" SSD and boot from it. So that is NextcloudPi and AGH. The 3 is because my 3d printer is nowhere near a LAN connection and 3 has WiFi. The 4 is sitting next to my router. We won't mention the 1B I've been messing with too...

  • That's looks handy. Thanks!

  • I ran Pi-hole for years. Switched to adguardhome running on 2 servers (primary and secondary) with AGH sync keeping the two instances identical. I like the UI better, dns rewrites, and the ability to simply block services entirely with a single click.

  • Not a bad idea. I get picky about aesthetics though. Dumb, I know. But I'll give it a try. Just seems silly to me that default launchers can't manage editing the dang app shortcuts

    edit: Samsungs OneUI launcher does not put the badge on a PWA. But I'm not sure I trust them any more than Nova at this point....
