While on an fairphone where a "normal" user can change various parts himself it makes sense, how does this workout on a pixel or any other "not for selfrepair" built device?
A screen module of the fairphone is 70€, so you drop it and change the screen yourself. Continuing to use it.
More than 4/5 years updates with batteries dying due to fast/ultra charged cycles doesn't make sense in my point of view.
They will for sure require original parts installed in the manufacturer repair shop.
I use syncthing to collect my data from several devices (smartphones and PC) to my server at home, when I am in my home network.
Then, on the server, rclone takes over with various daily/weekly tasks and syncs the stuff to my cloud storage. Some encrypted some plain. From my mobile or my pc I have access to all the data either at home or via vpn as well as directly to the cloud backup.
I am several months into the self-hosting journey and I feel I have outgrown my Pi 4 B 8GB. I'm only running around 3 dozen containerized services and it seems to struggle to keep up. But I'm not sure of the best bang for my buck. I'd like good, long-term performance, but I don't really have a grand lying around for a Lenovo...
I went for the ASRock J5040 board, 16gb ram (yes it works) a 500gb m.2 as system using a PCI adapter , 2x4tb ironwolf as ZFS mirror pool, 350 W power supply all in the node 304 fractal case for 550 euro.
Runs proxmox as hypervisor for VM or Container. 6 LXC running motioneye, plex, pyload with openvpn, syncthing, rclone cloud backup and openbookshelf.
I have a large audible library I would like to backup and make available for other audiobook apps that use less battery. I’d like to maintain as much information and structure as possible. I saw a self hosted solution for audiobooks I might try to implement as well....
Ripping myself is what I did with Libation as suggested here. You log into your audible account when starting the software for the first time, your libary is shown and you can start to download.
When adjusting the auto tagging then audiibookshelf automatically sorts the stuff in the correct way with series etc.

Brandon Sanderson - the stormlight archives - epic fantasy
Adrian Tchaikovsky - children of time series - sci-fi
Check if you can get your hands on an ebook reader, if you don't have already. The reading experience from the eye view side is similar to reading books and in addition you can increase the font size. It is superior to reading on a screen.
I am not familiar with the Apt series but CoT was the first book I read from this author and was blown away.
Although the first part started slow and monologues still happen frequently but the idea and the plot pulled me forward. While I didn't felt he recapped much.
My other suggestion, Peter F. Hamilton is the totally oposite direction when it comes to jumping between places / characters. Sometimes between paragraphs and not at chapters end or page ends.
Still after one sentence you know exactly where you are in the plot. Even when his books throw different characters at you like popcorn.
Just finished Adrian Tchaikovsky’s Children of Time. One of my top reads, let alone sci-fi reads, for the past couple of years for sure. Super well-thought out concepts, good character development, and an irresistible hook that will take you out of your comfort zone when you find out that you really don’t know who you are...
That's what do as well. While I was desperate waiting for BG3 to release, when it finally arrived I was totally overwhelmed by the game. It is really heavy weighted. The shear mass of possibilities and consequences makes it hard, at least for me, to relax without fomo.

And to add it was the most advanced device compared to the others. Full mouse support, graphical interface, WYSIWYG , it was a true gamechanger.
Had a used one myself and soldered RAM chips on the MB to make it a fat Mac with 4MB RAM . Boot disk system was copied to a RAM disk after boot. Good times
I have an old i3 PC that I'd like to useas a NAS but I'd prefer to use FOSS instead as realistically I don't know even this is even the solution I want to go with and would rather avoid dropping a lot of money on something I may change....
Edit: Installed as the hypervisor on bare metal and then whatever you want to try out like OMV, Plex, jellyfin, syncthing or cloud software in an LXC or VM
At the end of the page there are 4 build links shown. Starter to expert. I went the basic model route. They also describe the different NAS OS systems, I chosed proxmox.
If your concern is booting USB for unraid the
solution is to sacrifice at least one of your drives
as a boot drive, or if you have the room get a pair
of small SAS drives and configure a raid 1 vol in
the perc controller.
AFAIK the USB is the dongle that unraid runs at all. You have to boot from it. After the boot its loaded into the RAM. But without the USB drive you cannot boot at all.

I ran a NSLU2 with custom firmware and a mumble server on it. We used it to talk during online gaming without the need for teamspeak etc.

I have default windows defender, but didnt even know its antivirus lol. Is there any antivirus installed by default on any popular linux distro? What do you use?...
My paranoid me has no concerns in regards to Linux but I am running pyload in an LXC under proxmox to download you know what for my Windows PC.
So before using the files I would like to have them checked.
Therefore I just finished my setup.
Debian 12 LXC unprivileged, running pyload through openvpn tunnel. clamav does daily checks in the download directory and sends me an email if anything is found.
I just built a Server almost using the same parts. Its the ASRock J5040 board, 16gb ram (yes it works) a 500gb m.2 as system using a PCI adapter , 2x4tb ironwolf as ZFS mirror pool, 350 W power supply all in the node 304 fractal case for 550 euro.
Runs proxmox as hypervisor for VM or Container. As example LXC running container for motioneye, jellyfin, pyload with openvpn and syncthing.
