I have a dell optiplex micro that has been running pretty much everything in my home lab. They sell for $100ish on Amazon and eBay.

It’s a choice. You either want to make your pizza from scratch or have it delivered. I prefer mine delivered so I can kick my feet up on the couch, watch TV, and start eating right away. I don’t have time to gather all the ingredients and do all the cooking, you know?


Man, this distro really blew up. I remember around 2 years ago hearing about it for the first time, and then was like “oh maaaaan, not another arch/endeavourOS/Garuda/manjaro”. Anyway, it’s been my main distro for around 2 years now and I’m never going anywhere. lol
I did run it for a couple of year in the past. It was solid.
Their security updates are some of the best you could find, my friend. They are only “slow” on features. Debian doesn’t fuck around when it comes to security.
Gaming and getting the latest kernel is a big one for me. My gpu and cpu are very new and they require the latest kernels. I’m sure there are ways to bring in the newest kernel to Debian, or just use Sid or testing, but why do that and what I have works no problem?
I’ve invested so much time and effort into CachyOS. I’ve been running it for over 2 years now. A switch would be very hard and unnecessary work for me since it works no issues for me. Otherwise, Debian would be on my machine.
Amazing for a server. Both my servers run Debian and I have had no issues.


Thank you. I realized that after reading the comment a couple of times. Yeah, they can screw off. If they stop me, I’ll just move my stuff somewhere else.


Against whose TOS? Jellyfin’s? I’ve never heard of that. Do explain why please.
Edit: I re-read your comment a couple of times (English is my second language), then searched some stuff. I didn’t even know cloudflare did that. I’ve been using them for over 2 years with no issues. I guess I don’t stress their servers enough? lol. If they stop me, I’ll just move to another company. I won’t even bother asking them or anything.


Just completed my set of needed services by adding nextcloud to the list. Now life is good. Jellyfin: check. Navidrome: check. Pihole: check. Invidious: check. Nextcloud: check. What else? lol


Hey, I did the same. It’s not as bad as it seems. Get yourself a domain name from cloudflare and use it. I got mine for $10 a year. Then just installed cloudflare on my Debian server and all that (I’m sure you know the rest) then made users on my admin jellyfin dashboard and started sending people their usernames and passwords. The only difference for them is now they would need to enter the server URL on the first page of whatever they use then username and password. Good thing these jellyfin clients have the page of entering the server URL in your face with their “connect to server” button. Let me know if you have any questions.


Can this be installed on an android box?
Looks like your SSH session might not have the same access to the sound card or audio services as your local session. Have you tried enabling lingering and keeping PipeWire/WirePlumber running on Host A even when you’re not physically logged in?
sudo loginctl enable-linger "$USER" systemctl --user enable --now pipewire.socket wireplumber.serviceIf that doesn’t work, I’d check whether your SSH session has access to /dev/snd/ and whether PipeWire is actually running.
