Vaultwarden has such a steep learning curve (lemmy.world)

But I want it so badly! All i need to figure out is:

reverse proxys (I stumbled through getting one caddy instance setup so far but gosh I struggle with that also, nginx proxy manager seems like my next step)

a rock solid backup/restore setup (but first I need to figure out where the vaultwarden alpine files live, then be able to get those off of the proxmox vm)

this is more of a vent, than a request for someone to spell it all out for me. But I wouldn't be upset if anyone had the time to point me in the right direction for me.

Would it just be easier to run a keypass XC and syncthing setup?

A major disappointment in c/lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world

What's a better option these days? I'd be interested in trying to get rid of duckdns

Man, some of my buddies picked it back up and I just can't understand. How much fuckin money have they given that piece of shit company over the years? And now it's Microsoft? Sigh

I had truenas installed bare metal, with some jails for emby (jellyfin) and Adguard etc worked well enough but I wanted a little more flexibility.

I installed proxmox on the machine itself, and fired up a truenas VM and passed through the discs (for now until I get an HBA card).

Tons more flexibility.

LibreELEC setup? (lemmy.world)

How much experience do you guys have with LibreElec? I've been playing with Kodi on and off for years and years, but am looking at this to replace a fleet of rokus at the house after the recent terms debacle. Anyone have recommendations for UI and usage tweaks to make it easier for the family to use?

I see that it has docker abilities which seems awesome.

Right now I have it installed on bare metal, but might consider running 3 LibreELEC VMs on the same machine with proxmox if that would even be possible. Has anyone tried that? How much horsepower would one need to run 3 1080p streams if it's possible.

If I'm barking up the wrong tree, I apologize! And would appreciate being pointed to the correct community.

Asus TUF fx506l Linux recommendations for gaming? (lemmy.world)

Basically title. I saw a few reddit threads with this piece but wanted to see if anyone out here had any experience with trying to get Linux set up on this machine.

I'd want to use it for gaming on steam, GOG and emulators. and other stuff like that.

I'm planning on installing on a secondary m.2 drive, and can keep windows for emergencies

Thanks for looking!

Edit:

I've gotten Linux (mxlinix) working on a single ancient HP core 2 duo laptop that seemed to work pretty well considering the machine it was on

Baseline experience with CLI and if copy paste works on the system I can plow through most things.
