  • For me personally… I use VyOS in a VM running on a proxmox host (optiplex, SFF) with a 4-port NIC passthrough. This solves the issue of power for me, as the host has plenty of ram allowing me to run other services without needing an additional machine (although I do have one as a spare). VyOS doesn’t currently have a GUI (one is in development), however, it has been very solid for me (also based on debian, which is nice).



  • I find it to be quite stable, I haven’t had any real issues, haven’t rebooted except for version updates which isn’t too frequent (stable). No GUI built-in, there are a few projects out there and they are working on one officially, but the cli is solid. If you have ever configured juniper routers/switches it is quite similar

    Thanks for the post! I didn’t realize google was going out of the registrar business. I only have a couple domains with google (mostly stopped using all of google services so this was the final service I was using).

    I really like cloudflare due to the at-cost renewal/registration so that’ll be where I am moving them to


  • Building a NAS if your comfortable with it is the better option, better hardware/cost generally then pre-built synology (the benefit is really they are the ones responsible for managing the experience). Once you have the case/hardware, you can toss TrueNAS on it.

    Personally, I have one machine setup as a NAS, one machine as a router running VyOS (virtualized on proxmox) with core services, then a few extra machines for things like jellyfin, etc.

    I have most of the pokemon collection, you can find a lot of the seasons on ebay and rip them once you get the disks. There are several auto ripping scripts out there (personally made my own, pass through the dvd/blu-ray drive and auto detect media type).

    I don’t have to worry about a company just not providing video service anymore for some licensing issue or something
