Yep, this is the answer. Set it, forget it, accidentally have your hard drive destroyed irrecoverably, and re-set everything up to the exact working state you were used to in under 15min.

It's a fair bit of initial setup and learning, but afterwards, the word "stable" takes on a new meaning.

Yes - but I have no idea about docker, sorry. Have it running baremetal (or rather, in a proxmox VM).

Just a hunch, but in case you "only" share the directory where Sonarr puts Episode files with Jellyfin via some mount point or whatever, and not the directory where Sonarr gets them from (where the torrent client downloads to), then I can see hardlinks breaking in unexpected ways

Sorry to hear that that's been your experience! :( My installation has been running for ~5 years without any problems

Yeah no worries - I discovered Prowlarr from that exact same comment years ago so jumped at the opportunity to post it here 😆

Real question is, why Jackett instead of Prowlarr? 😄

I have one big frustration with that: Your voice input has to be understood PERFECTLY by TTS.

If you have a "To Do" list, and speak "Add cooking to my To Do list", it will do it! But if the TTS system understood:

  • Todo
  • To-do
  • to do
  • ToDo
  • To-Do
  • ...

The system will say it couldn't find that list. Same for the names of your lights, asking for the time,..... and you have very little control over this.

HA Voice Assistant either needs to find a PERFECT match, or you need to be running a full-blown LLM as the backend, which honestly works even worse in many ways.

They recently added the option to use LLM as fallback only, but for most people's hardware, that means that a big chunk of requests take a suuuuuuuper long time to get a response.

I do not understand why there's no option to just use the most similar command upon an imperfect matching, through something like the Levenshtein Distance.

Hard to put my ~~lips~~ finger on the reason, though

Kagi lenses "focus" the search. So normal web search definitely can contain fediverse results, but with the lens switched on, you ONLY get fediverse results.

Named mine after "objects" from Iain M. Banks' Culture Novels.

Currently I have:

  • gsv
  • hub
  • excession
  • drone

Nice and short, and map roughly to the "power level" of the hardware, so to speak.

And my Yubikeys are named after Special Circumstances agents 😄

I'm sorry, but have you never had actual Cheddar?

In that case I can really highly recommend it. Nixos on the server is fantastic anyways, and the only hurdle to recommending simple-nixos-mailserver is that most people are not familiar with nix... 😄
