The big update is coming soon. They’ve been working on it for a long time now. Its in the final stretch and should hopefully be in TestFlight soon.

Swiftfin is an official tvOS jellyfin app:

Sorry, wish I was able to share more. I honestly JUST started diving into this stuff after your post. Learning a lot from the various other comments though. Hopefully some of the other commenters can help you get the answers you’re looking for.

Ollama is in the Arch Linux package repository, whereas llama.cpp is in the AUR. Both options are available.

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Llama.cpp

Also, looks like Ollama is mostly written in Go and C, versus C and C++.

VC backed or not, both packages are under the MIT license.

Ollama is an application which lets you run offline large language models locally.

Solar flares and even the occasional random neutron particle hitting your equipment can cause some weird issues. If its just a one time occurrence and it doesn’t happen again, I wouldn’t worry too much about it.

You could make a document describing what each set of data is, if its useful to anyone but yourself, or if its safe to delete. You could offer suggestions of what to do with each set. I think of it as a treasure map that you leave behind. Maybe they will be interested in it, maybe they will pass it on to someone else.

Depends on the admin.

Arch servers are just fine. Just be sure to pay attention to Arch News to watch for manual interventions on certain updates. If anything, the older Debian packages can cause headaches occasionally. I personally use both distros as servers for different use cases.

1.) Check the jellyfin logs and see what kind of errors youre getting when adding media folders.

2.) check your firewall rules on the jellyfin server, as well as your local router/switch and make sure you’re allowing access to the jellyfin port

Firmware update utilities, host OS file system encryption packages, HBA management tools, temperature monitoring, and then a lot of the packages had bugs that were resolved with newer versions, but proxmox only provided old versions.

I thought about running something like proxmox, but everything is too pooled, too specialized, or proxmox doesn’t provide the packages I want to use.

Just went with arch as the host OS and firejail or lxc any processes i want contained.

Its more about the hardware than software.

• Able to have enough processing power to utilize the max speed that my ISP provides, while having IDS/IPS and other services enabled.
• Port segregation so that each port can be on its own network with a full speed backplane.
• PoE capabilities
• SPF ports to utilize both fiber and copper connections
• Multiple networks across many wireless access points

I freakin love OpenWRT. I used it for a solid 5-6 years on some consumer grade routers and learned a lot about managing networks.

Ive since moved to more powerful enterprise network gear because OpenWRT opened that door for me and taught me what is possible. I might not ever go back to it, but I will always recommend OpenWRT to people who want to rice out their routers and get the most out of it.

Check out SyncThing, which can sync a folder of your choice across all 3 devices

[edit] oops, just saw you don’t plan on using it

In that case, if you use KDE, you can use Dolphin to set up network drives to your local network machines through SSH

TPM has solved this now for more than a decade.

Verified boot + TPM encryption key storage is a huge layer of protection for the boot process.

Check out the Arch wiki for TPM. It has some good reading.

You need VLANs if you want separate networks on the SAME router. But if you have separate routers, then you don’t need VLANs.

You will need two wireless access points. If the router you mentioned has two wireless access points built in, then just set one to connect to the shared network, and the other will act as an AP for your private network. Then the router can be configured to send WAN traffic out of the shared network AP.

If you use a router that only has a single AP built in, then you will need to purchase and additional AP to plug into one of your router’s LAN ports so that it has two total.

Some routers might have the ability to create multiple wireless networks on one router, but be sure the hardware can handle the load. I know my ubiquity UDR can create up to 5 wireless networks on that single device before you run into performance issues.

Honestly, if you’re using your own router, you won’t need to worry about VLANs as long as your router separates your private network from the shared one.

For example, if the shared network is 192.168.0.0/24, you can make your private network 192.168.5.0/24 and have your router’s firewall block incoming traffic from 192.168.0.0/24. Only allow WAN traffic out, and allow return traffic.

Then have your router or connected server act as the authoritative DNS and DHCP servers for the 192.168.5.0/24 private network.

One wireless AP will be used in client mode to connect to the 192.168.0.0/24 shared network. The other wireless AP will be used as an access point for other devices to connect to the 192.168.5.0/24 private network.

Its perfect for a small VPS. Been using it for years.

I do occasionally get places where my email simply will not send to them, even though it follows every email standard properly and isnt blacklisted. For those rare occasions, ill use a third party email address to send, which then forwards everything to my main email.

Yes, its fine to have your OS on a separate SSD and use your HDD as data storage.

Its also important to maintain your drives. Be sure to have SMART alerts, and do spinrite or badblocks occasionally to let the drive firmware remove bad sectors from use.
