They don’t prioritize mobile users, they prioritize mobile apps - easier to track and gather telemetry, easier to show ads (harder to use adblock), easier to send notifications, you can expect the user to return if they already downloaded an app.

I recently started paying for debrid services (I use real debrid, but there are others) and couldn’t be happier. Got an app called Stremio on my TV and after adding the credentials, everything just works - easy & fast like the streaming services.

It also allows you to download torrents much faster than torrenting them, especially if not many people seed them.

Oh, and if you ever need to download something from Rapidshare or whatever other websites like that it does that too.

Honestly, I should’ve started paying for it earlier.

One of the things I learned as a dev is not to overcomplicate things - my profession is very guilty of this and it bites us in the ass in the end 100% of the time. I’m slowly learning not to do that, thus, Unraid :) thanks for the info.

Do you have any issues with downtime? Are updates troublesome?

I only said 3 drives because supposedly it’s better than 2, which would mean simple mirroring - I’ll cross that bridge when I get to it, shouldn’t be hard to get answers there.

Is Cloudflare Tunnels really this problematic? I thought Tunnels and Tailscale would be safe… If I can’t expose those services, I’d rather pay for SaaS alternatives.

Thank you for the other tips.

Why do you need both Unraid and TrueNAS? Don’t they do the same thing? What’s the downside to running TrueNAS on VM in Proxmox VS dedicated machine?

What device do you use for NAS? I’m looking to have a tb of raid 0 ssd cache and if I were to have a dedicated NAS, I would probably go for something with ITX mobo or something like Ugreen Nas with unraid software. Doesn’t the power necessary to have a performant NAS go underutilized then?

It’s somehow even trickier to find a list of differences between them and regular win 11.

There’s 1440 minutes per day, a lock that’s right twice a day is right for 1/720th of the time. A broken calendar, right for one day of 365, is actually accurate twice as often as a broken clock.
