You won’t be using a traditional RAID with TrueNAS Scale. You have a choice of Stripe, Mirror, RAIDZ1, RAIDZ2, RAIDZ3, dRAID1, dRAID2, dRAID3. The docs are very detailed, so you should read up on RAIDZ and the other types elsewhere, too.

It has also improved a lot in the last years. PHP5 and especially versions older than that weren’t very good and deserved a lot of the criticism. PHP7 and onward are much better languages and don’t deserve the hate.

Since you only use Plex because of overseerr: There is a fork called Jellyseer that is compatible with Jellyfin. Haven’t tried it yet but it may be worth looking into.

I think there’s an option to enable/disable sound on the host computer somewhere in the streaming settings.

Have you tried GlosSI?

I’ve used it to play some game pass games.

I love kubernetes. At the start of the year I installed k3s von my VPS and moved over all my services. It was a great learning opportunity that also helped immensely for my job.

It works just as well as my old docker compose setup, and I love how everything is contained in one place in the manifests. I don’t need to log in to the server and issue docker commands anymore (or write scripts / CI stages that do so for me).

It does have a feature now that kind of works like a forum. If you go to one of these channels it shows a list of posts, and each post can be commented on separately. But that’s it, it doesn’t even come close to reddit or lemmy.

Cool, that’s a beefy machine. Way more expensive than I would be comfortable with but you do get lots of power.

How much do you pay for that OVH server?
