I still just use :X with vim on a server I can ssh to.

Before I discovered tidal integration with Plex, I liked slacker (now live one). Maybe I’ll move back to that or pandora. Slacker is nice that you can build a radio station based on multiple artists or albums.

Tidal on AA crashes. The UI is generally garbage too. And I assume that when the integration goes away, so does the ability to use plexamp, even if selecting tidal as the library rather than my own that has tidal integrated. I’m not paying for something that not only doesn’t work the way that I want it to, but doesn’t work at all. Plexamp and local integration is the ONLY reason I even bother with Tidal in the first place. Bye Bye.

Not as easy to get everything as it is with TV/Movies, unfortunately. That’s the whole reason I jumped onto Tidal in the first place. It offered a far better service. Now it’s going away. I will definitely be voting with my wallet and letting them know why I’m cancelling though.

Rack mount server class machines at home generally aren’t great options. Definitely stick with tower/mini designs.

That said, for a home server a general workstation may be best. I personally have a System 76 Thelio. I added a second drive and installed proxmox with a ZFS mirrored pool.

You can ship to Graylog with netcat or filebeat. Then you can do all of your graphing, searching, and analysis there.

I use it. No complaints here. They’ve recently reduced their rates. The alternatives are more involved and more expensive. I put my remote Borg repos on rsync.net

Because I use Borg I don’t really need their zfs snapshots but those are pretty cool too.

I have multiple Borg repos, so rather than add a remote for each I just rclone everything at once to rsync.

For home, use your firewall. Either physical ports on the firewall with dumb switches or vlans with managed layer 2 switches.

There are many ways to do this. Proxmox can do it with ovs if all your devices are virtualized. Pfsense is probably the most straightforward.

The best way to run pfsense is on dedicated hardware. This would work for you https://protectli.com/vault-4-port/

You’ll also then need switches or a managed switch with vlans for each network segment.

There are devices like the Netgear lm1200 that can do it inline by themselves.

I have that device, but configured as a second gateway. My firewall manages the failover based on primary packet loss and latency.

I run nut on a pi.

In addition to ups, an LTE failover. I’ve had my Comcast crap be offline for hours.

Borg. With rsync.net if you want to keep an off-site.

Naemon and Graylog.

Brings back fond memories of rockbox on my sansa.

You can read things from all servers on the server you choose to connect with though. Bad analogy.
