I used a fujitsu q9000 mini pc, a superold thing running first gen i3m chip. It was also undervolted but performed fine for 1080p streams. 8 gb ram 2tb
Recently I upgraded to a Nuc i3-8th gen, 16gb ram and a 4tb drive. It can handle 4k and is much faster at transcoding.
The NUC doesnt consume much and works pretty well. Its also a more quite and lived in a big ventilated closet.
you might want to check honeygain’s network calls, because I had it running and then suddenly noticed my IP got banned on quite a few websites.
Turns out it was my honeygain traffic that caused it, I quickly uninstalled it after that.
Yeah, I stopped browsing trakt and imdb and just rely on that app for discovery. (And requests from the gf). It made my “managing” work a lot lighter and more fun.
Raivo looks nice, I’ve been using authy for a long time. To sync all my authenticators since I used to swap phones often.
Shame its ios only.
Bitwarden is the best bang for buck.
I use the nzb360 app for android which makes it very user friendly. She wouldn’t dabble with the ui’s and is the kind of person to use her phone for everything and doesn’t want to use pc’s.
I chose jellyfin because it was opensource, looked better imho and was free.
I’d say stick to whatever works the best, plex with lifetime is a solid option that does it all.
I didn’t know about those, I mainly use nzb360 on android to do the whole requesting and such.
I got prowlarr, radarr, sonarr, jellyfin, homeassistant, archies steam farm, actual budget and bitwarden all hosted on my server. And organizr to have a nice homepage for it all.
I have the *arr apps running on my homeserver, i manage the backend but everything gets neatly dropped in jellyfin.
Gf is not tech savvy, is very happy about our “homemade netflix”, reverse proxied it so she can watch at work too.
This!
I used winrar at first, but never truly trusted 7zip. Didn’t like the way it looked. Then first time I learned about ninite, I saw peazip and never looked back.
With the soon to be supported .rar on windows 11 I might do away with it but I feel peazip works faster.
