Yeah, I was also starting to lean toward putting NextCloud on the OPi. There’s just not much happening on my OPi and I was only hesitating from trying that because I didn’t think the OPi could handle it, but it’s worth trying.

Thanks for the feedback!

1. I may not have labeled that accurately, I just plan to use Tailscale to access these services from specific authorized devices.
2. I meant “before I do something that is a pain to correct”. Like starting with the wrong OS or file system format.
3. My plan is to build a media server which will include 4k media, so I think my storage may need to grow over time… maybe TrueNAS is something I can add later if needed?
4. I guess the reason I was thinking of 2 separate machines is that I’ve heard using an OPi as a media server or NextCloud server will go really slow and potentially cause other issues. Plus I already have an old computer doing nothing right now, just needs new SSDs.

Used the whiteboard tool in Clickup. It’s a lot like FigJam.

I feel ya. I have a dog and three cats, but so far have not had an issue with hair or cable chewing. The frame is essentially just a kit of 2020 extruded aluminum t-slot rails with connectors. If I were to do this again, I would probably not go with a kit and instead just buy the rails and connectors I need for my specific motherboard/components. Also, any extra rails/connectors you get could go toward a DIY 3D printing frame (that’s my next project)!

For my ITX build I went with this open frame so I can really customize the placement of each component and keep everything nice and compact. I’ll probably build a cover to go over this frame at some point.

I’m also not a fan of memes, but I acknowledge that many other people are. The most I can do is block communities that are expressly for memes and shrug off the rest. There’s plenty of other places for grouches like us.
