  • There’s different kinds of backups. For this you don’t need off-site storage.

    For this I set up zfs auto snapshotting which means when I delete stuff it isn’t really deleted because a snapshot is still pointing at it until it rolls off the time window.

    Both zfs and btrfs can do this but you do need to change the filesystem to use these which can be a lot of work.

    You’re gonna need to turn off auto play or turn on a sleep timer. You already have the settings to turn it off automatically but it thinks you’re still watching.

    I have a sleep timer app on my phone that usually works if I’m doing casting if the projector or apps don’t support it.

    I didn’t know if jellyfin supports it but maybe a playlist that’s not infinite could function as a sleep timer too.


  • I’m running FreeBSD I actually like it a lot.

    I picked it for zfs. A lot of the ways things work seem cleaner and simpler than on Linux and zfs is awesome with the copy on write snapshots and filesystem compression and all that. I like rc.conf and pf is way nicer than iptables and even when you upgrade it automatically makes a snapshot so you can rollback.

    Sometimes I do need to patch and compile things because people seem to not know freebsd exists but that’s really the only downside.
