What file format do you store your media in?

Hello! I recently listened to a podcast that talked about how storing media files in .av1 format is very efficient and storage-friendly. I've been storing my files in .mkv format, but now I'm considering using Handbrake or a similar service to convert all my video files to .av1 if it's more compressed than .mkv. So;...

I hope you are doing 3-2-1 backups now

I also use Proxmox Backup Server to backup my VMs. These and the files of my NAS get copied on one of two 22TB HDDs, which I swap out weekly from my fireproof safe. My PC files get synced on my NAS through GoodSync and my Smartphone NeoBackups via Syncthing. My PC also does a Disk2VHD image every month and TrueNAS keeps daily snapshots for two months.

I lost 2TB of data about 15 years ago, I vowed to never let this happen again

I have two docker hosts which both run Pihole and get synced via gravity. I set those instances as first and second DNS servers in DHCP and on each docker host

I use a Proxmox Cluster and assigned dedicated NICs to my OPNsense VMs (also clustered). I connected the NIC ports I assigned to the OPNsense VMs directly with a cable and reserved it for CARP usage.
I can easily download with 1GB/s and the VMs switch without any packet loss during failover, 10/10 would do it again.

ATproto and activityPub aren't compatible are they? So we still need to wait for a bridge.

It has way better performance than TeamViewer and AnyDesk but is also as feature rich and can be self hosted, I love it!
