Just to clarify then: you use a home server - are you running Syncthing on Linux?

So, if I have an old laptop (win10) would I need to learn linux to use it as an home server - and could it use minimal power when it’s always on? The power thing is an issue here in UK.

I have a nvidia shield for the tv, is that a possibility for a server - I go run plex on it?

These might sound to you like daft questions, but I’m just learning stuff. Thanks.

Thanks for the reply. I like obsidian at the moment: I can sync across all my devices - using Syncthing, so it’s very workable for me. I guess whichever editor works for you is good - though I must admit obsidian is a bit too overloaded for me, but I’ll persist as the Syncthing works well. I’ll try to simplify it with minimal plugins.

Now, a Sony Bravia - what size and price may I ask ? And how difficult is it to remove all the shit ad functionality from it ?

I’ve had my 32" for like 8 years but definately looking for the same quality piece of kit.

Who gives a fucking shit about x fucking twitter? - let’s hope it crashes along with reddit !

PS cross post all the good stuff onto lemmy first - then just let it burn and sink!

I only ever lurked on Reddit and here on Lemmy I’m trying to be more of an active participant.

Same here, and now I’m soo glad that I jumped that shit ship.

Hi, on f-droid there’s an app called Android Samba Client but I can’t get it to connect to my shared folder because of permissions - it says, but I can’t find a lot of documentation about it.

Have you seen this?

I’m hoping that it’s not connecting because of something I’m doing wrong - and maybe I can figure it out later (poss. because of my lack of understanding on my part of the way plex should share permissions with other devices).

If you get anywhere further, please let me know. - it just doesn’t seem to be a well covered topic unfortunately.

I’m thinking maybe mount as you say using Xplore and bring in Syncthing to move the file across onto the server. Thanks for the idea.
