So, just a light post, I upgraded my Pi4 last night and found the Linux firmware breaks a 32bit install.

I’ve been meaning to change to 64bit for months, but as it’s my DMZ box for torrents, radicale, etc, then it’s just finding the right time to convert an adhoc setup into my ansible scripts.

Luckily I had a SD backup from September to get it running again

So, what have you broken over the holidays?

    I’ve had next cloud break on me before and it runs slow, so I switched to Seafile instead for files, but actually Seafile scares me even more than next cloud because at least next cloud saves files on disk as files you can copy out to somewhere else if you need to access them (I’m not above emergency scp of important files to get the files I need).

    Seafile uses some binary format that means I can only get files in and out through the Web interface. If Seafile breaks, I’m SOL to recover data to somewhere else and need to be able to get a working backup or fix it. I can’t just scp files to a local machine to work on them.

        Thanks for the info! Tbh I never looked into extensions, honestly like 90% of the point was to get the hundreds of photos off my phone and into somewhere else.

        But I’ll have to look into that.

        Honestly syncthing was very attractive at first, and then I went for next cloud because it looked to me more complete and more full. I’m trying to find something my wife could possibly also use, so next cloud having online editing with collabora was nice to try to have it feel like Google docs, but since I’m migrating away from that then maybe sync thing is worth a try too.
