Yeah I originally trying to daily Linux for like the past 10 years but kept falling back to Windows, mainly due to the app compatibility.
A lot of people suggested dual booting but I found that it messed up disrupted my workflow, and Level 2 hypervisors were too slow to be practical
What finally made Linux stick for me was Proxmox.. it let daily Linux and still have the option to quickly spin up a Windows VM with a GPU if I needed something urgently, without the hassle of rebooting.
So now, six months later, I’m dailying Arch and also self-hosting a bunch of stuff on Debian, and I haven’t looked back.
@catculation This has happened before and is a really big issue, but wouldn't some sort of network segmentation have helped prevent this especially as it's happened before?
I gave away my wife's Wyze camera and moved to Ubiquiti. It cost me a small fortune.
Not self-hosting at the moment but still, nothing can be as bad as Wyze, right?
@Usernameblankface Some sort of attack that manages to take down Cloudflare, AWS, Azure, and Google Services at the same time. Would break a lot more than just the internet though.
Yes, I have noticed a trend of homelab hobbyists going back to something like this:
Soulseek - Nicotine+ for plentiful, lossless content
Jellyfin for self-hosting
Infuse for streaming the content remotely to save storage on your phone.
I don't endorse piracy for ethical reasons, but I get why this is trending up:
Increasingly aggressive pricing models
Service quality and content accessibility going down

I think it's about convenience.
