Pi-hole was really simple to set up. It was absolutely worth it and I’ve got it running on an old netbook. Very easy on resources.

Syncthing is also nice if you have files that you want easily shared between devices. I use it for sharing work files that I want synced between multiple devices. When I edit something it gets shared to all of my devices and it’s always up to date everywhere.

I guess I was thinking of the manga. Either way, not too bad unless you’re looking for some kind of masterpiece.

Highschool of the Dead.

Old and not the greatest story, but it was a fun watch a long time ago.

They’ve been easier to find from what I’ve read recently.

Try rpilocator.

Then I’ll conseder it when I’m feeling productive. I am using an old netbook. Thanks for the answers.

Would it be worth switching if I’m already set up on Debian?

Thanks, I’ll check it out.

What advantages would this give over plain Debian or similar? I’m a total noob, so I’d love something that might help me get a little more out of my little netbook ‘server’.

I’ve got Pi-hole and Syncthing running on an old netbook with an Atom CPU and 2 GB RAM. It’s doing fine. Syncthing killed the little dual-core CPU while it was syncing all of the stuff I wanted, but now it idles along quietly on Debian. I doubt you’re going to get much out of the machine, but it’s perfectly fine for small, simple stuff like Pi-hole.

Distro-wise, I’d say Debian or similar if you want to set-and-forget (update once a week or month) or Arch/openSUSE Tumbleweed if you want it up-to-date (potentially more work needed).

Considering the hardware I’d also recommend whichever distro you go with without a GUI to keep the resource usage as low as possible.

One day when I’m all growed up I want to have a better setup. For now I’ve got what I absolutely need.

It’s not much, but I’ve got a little LG netbook with an Atom CPU and 2GB RAM running Pi-hole and Syncthing.

I’m sure someone’s already created a logo. But, that’s as far as they ever get.
