**beep ** bop.
Is there anything interesting at all reported in /proc/spl/kstat/zfs/dbgmsg?
I did ran out of pcie, yeah :-( the network peaks at about 26gbit/s, which is the most you can squeeze out of pcie 3.0 x4. I could move the nvmes off the pcie 4.0 x16 (I have two m2 slots on the motherboard itself), but I planned to expand the nvme storage to 4x SSDs and I’m out of the pci lanes on the other end of the fiber either way (that box has all x16 going to the gpu)
I run 3900X with a 40Gbit fiber, packed with HDDs and nvmes. The box fluctuates around 90-110W use.
when you said that Nextcloud might not meet your needs, was your concern specifically the server-side data format?
I’d prefer them as plain files. Technically it doesn’t matter much to me if it’s a database, if I have to spin up an S3-compatible API, or if I need to slice up a zvol for it, but I just prefer the files because then I can do zfs snapshots (in which I trust) and backup with restic (in which I trust)
That gives me hope, thanks. I’ll try it, then.
Lots of files. I’d offload old projects that I worked on with synology drive so they aren’t stored locally, only remotely (but are easily accessible).
Your requirements sound a lot like Chrome Remote Desktop and it’s pretty trivial to install, which might be a handy thing for family members that aren’t tech-savvy.
yeah, I thought I deleted it immediately but the deletes federate in weird ways. was a client bug.

The free news app was, sadly, never free for all, and missed in a bunch of regions.
While you could practically install macOS on ipads it’d work no better than windows used to work on tablets (it got a bit better nowadays). macOS is just not designed for touch input and would be a hideously subpar product. Can you imagine trying to use your fingers with the blender UI at 1x scale?
There is a toolset to easily get metal mac apps on iPad, though. I actually looked into what’d it take to port bender to iPad previously, and metal is the least of all problems. Blender is just a notoriously complicated piece of software.
They actually had a couple seconds of the new mobile zbrush running on it. Blender natively supports metal nowadays (thanks to apple), so making it work is on the blender team. Sounds like a lot of work, though.
I don’t like helm, so I use nix to maintain my fediverse deployments in kubernetes. Typically that’d just autoupdate itself to new releases, but for lemmy specifically I upgrade by hand nowadays since one release some time ago broke my deployment and its schema change was incompatible with the automated rollback.
My setup is a combination of https://github.com/farcaller/nixdockertag (auto-updated docker imagesfor things where I fully own the deployments) and https://github.com/farcaller/nixhelm (for helm charts that I either consume verbatim PR have local patches on). Both just auto update nightly thanks to github.
PD delegates the whole prefixes, i.e. it allows the subrouters to ask for a subnet of the size they need.
In case if you e.g. have eth0 and eth1 and neither is guaranteed to be up. It’s more of a router setup, though (Cisco routers are well-known to use the loopback interface like this).
OpnSense is incapable of proper DHCPv6-PD, that’s when your route receives a prefix from upstream and delegates parts of it downstream. More specifically, it does the delegation, but it doesn’t add the relevant routes, effectively blackholing the allocated prefixes.
VyOS fixed this specific bug since I reported it. RouterOS and IOS never had it.
One more for mikrotik (I run the VM version on a small linux box).
I tested a ton of those (pf/opn-senses, VyOS, even Cisco), and noone of the free ones can handle IPv6 in a reasonable way in 2024, which is slightly bizzare. Mikrotik has some annoyances, but it’s rock solid as a router.
I don’t use its container features and instead run podman in a vm next to it. Works great.
I got my account closed with no reason a hair after 12 months. It was good while it lasted, and I have the backups outside of oracle’s cloud.
I wouldn’t specifically say nixOS is stable in the same sense debian is but yes, it can totally handle this use case. I mainly run k8s on it, but a few home machines run docker (or, rather, podman) containers.
A thing about nixOS is that quite often you won’t need containers at all and would be better off without them, managing your apps as part of the system state as a whole. I only do that because I can’t be bothered to properly switch to nixOS services for ELK (which is supported by nixOS).
It’s a very stable solution in general and usually ends with a configuration that either doesn’t apply at all or applies with no issues. Gitops included for pretty much free. It requires understanding nix, and it can be tricky, but not overly tricky.
All and all I haven’t had an Ubuntu in homelab for two years now and can’t be happier about that.
I run k3s in my homelab as a single node cluster. I’m very familiar with kubernetes in general, so it’s just easier for me to reason with a control plane.
Some of the benefits I find useful:
k3s is, of course, a memory hog, I’d estimate it and cilium (my CNS of choice) eat up about 2Gb ram and a bit under one core. It’s something you can tune to some extent, though. But then, I can easily do pod routing via VPN and create services that will automatically get a public IP from my endless IPv6 pool and get that address assigned a DNS name in like 10 lines of Yaml.
