Some advice, TrueNAS isn't very newbie friendly. Between permissions and their wonky kubernettes setup that no containers actually leverage, it's not great. It is free, but expect bumps in the road. Unraid and OpenMediaVault are much easier to use. I switched to Unraid, and it's been amazing, I highly recommend it. It's nice that you can install random sized drives, they don't need to match. You can toss in a few ssds for cache, and the docker containers are super easy to setup and maintain. Jellyfin works just fine for instance. OMV has some great offerings too, but lack the docker/VM hosting side. It's a NAS and nothing else. It's expected to have proxmox or something hosted elsewhere that uses OMV as storage.
#2 opinion, build your own NAS. Especially if you've already built your own Gaming PC, it's pretty straight forward. Pick a low powered cpu, toss in some ram, a ton of hdds, and maybe some old graphics card you have lying around for transcoding or hosting local AI for kicks. You'll get a lot more for your money this way.
A lot of people aren't big fans of Nginx Proxy Manager, which is separate from Nginx. But I like it. It's got a nice gui, and the part I really like is the letsencrypt ssl certs baked in. You can get a new one, for a new service with a click of a button, and it auto renews your certs, so you don't have to worry about it once it's set up.
So, something to note is that a lot of UPSs have a configuration for sensitivity. Your power actually fluctuates quite a bit, but you don't notice. I have my UPS on the default sensitivity, and there have been a few instances of it going onto battery power when none of my other devices even flickered.
So, with that in mind, I use NUT. My server has it setup and it's set to gracefully shutdown after my UPS hits 25% battery remaining. That way false positives don't shut it down, nor will small flickers, nor will an outage less than an hour or so. My UPS says I can run for about 90mins on current load.
I wish I could get fiber. I've got pretty solid coax internet, but my upload speeds are maxed out constantly. Backing up my server can take days at 40mbps(max).
Removing your data as a normie won't be flagged. If you're a celebrity, yea, you'll may hit the Sreisand Effect. But as a normie, nah, plenty of people remove their data for a load of reasons all the time.
Like moat things I do, I recommend trying half-heartedly. It seems like it's bothering you at least a little, or you wouldn't have posted about it. Try, and if it's too much work don't worry about it, but at least you tried. it's the rare person that doesn't have any personaly info on the web. Even rarer the person who's data hasn't been leaked by PSN, OPN, T-Mobile, or hundreds of others.
Still, it would be giving money to google, which I don't want to do. Also it has a camera cutout which is annoying, ALSO in my original post I claimed whenever I talk about degoogling, someone ALWAYS suggests a google product.
Thank you for this! Most of those bugs wouldn't bother me except for the no bluetooth audio. I'm going to keep tabs on this now that I know it's almost ready.
I actually just yesterday pulled the trigger on deleting all my contacts and calendar info out of google and now they're backed up to my webdav server.
Yea, I've checked LineageOS and a few others out, but my phone isn't supported.
That's what I get for also hating selfie camera notches/cutouts. Most of the phones I get aren't popular models. If you know of one for the Nubia Z60 Ultra, point it out.
Only if aired on the CW.
