SMB, FTP, or NFS for NAS + server?

I am running a NAS that needs to connect to a server (the NAS isn't powerful enough). I also need to connect my NAS to a Windows, Mac, and Linux device (Linux being the most important, then Mac, then Windows). Out of SMB, FTP, and NFS, which one would be the best, quickest, and most secure for my situation? My NAS supports...

Matrix client for Android for family and friends. Your experiences.

I want to migrate my friends to self-hosted Matrix server I have for some time now. The problem is, that all Android clients seem missing for me. Element is too buggy (especially for encryption) and has bad UX. Element X is still experimental and lacks core features. FluffyChat has most features and nice ones like stickers, but...

You will have to start the chat from desktop, none of their mobile clients support starting a Matrix chat as of now.

The desktop and previous mobile clients are based off of Element, it's only the new mobile clients that are custom.

It supports E2EE.

Are the following NAS options okay for live transcoding?

I am setting up a new Jellyfin server, and I am looking at using a NAS to host it through Docker. However, I don't want to make the mistake of forgetting about the power needed for live transcoding (MKV 480p -> MP4 (I haven't set up a good conversion method yet)). Are any of the following NAS options okay for standalone...

What's a good NAS and server system under CAD$900 (USD$658)?

I am currently using an old laptop (circa 2015) with a 250GB SSD in it, and 4GB of RAM. It runs Fedora 39 Server, and only hosts a Jellyfin instance through Docker right now (though I want to use Nextcloud later too). There is only 15GB of storage left on it, and the CPU is constantly overloaded (due to forced transcoding). I...

Is it that difficult to run Mastodon over Docker?

I am used to simple things running on Docker (Jellyfin, Nextcloud, etc.) I am looking at running my own personal Mastodon instance (maybe share it with a few friends and family), but I like using Docker. Looking at install guides, the steps required seem to be much harder than just editing docker-compose.yml and running the...

Is it a run and just works docker compose file?

I just didn't want people to suggest to me to run a different server OS, as I can't do that (I think).

What is a simple server solution for Jellyfin and Nextcloud?

I have a really bad "server" (just a laptop) that runs Fedora Server and uses Docker Compose to host Jellyfin. It has been very annoying to update (the web GUI for Fedora doesn't even work half of the time), updating is painful, and it's a pain to manage. I am trying to redo my entire setup, so I will be getting a NAS to store...

Don’t put any data into the container ever. All of your data and configuration should be done in volumes.
So are bind mounts (--bind) to the filesystem bad? Am I able to access Docker volumes through SFTP/SSH?

tester1121 OP ,

Is a Docker volume accessible like a folder if I SSH/SFTP into the host machine, not the container?

What is the difference between a room ID with a ! or a # from another server's perspective (and other questions)?

What is the difference between a room id of !example391:server.com and #example:server.com for a user at server2.com? Is there also a way to assign an internal address starting with a #? Everytime I try to make it internal only, it becomes external at the same time. I also noticed that Element allows me to assign custom room...
