If you simply want the best UX, then you need to stay with the real Facebook etc.
They spend millions and millions and millions only for UX. Free software can never compete, period.

How can i get it to work in these conditions?
Borrow an android phone from some friend/neighbor for an hour…
I have 3 separate machines:
That fat home server with NAS and VM’s etc.
A Pi serving my smart home.
A plastic router with OpenWrt doing DNS and (I like to believe) some security, and giving WiFi to many small devices.
They all run 24/7 but I just don’t want everything to be dead and dark when one machine is down for whatever reason.
This will be the spec for my next server. The current one is smaller, and several years old
I have several different requirements for my server, for example, my son does video editing and needs lots of storage. I want to experiment with more VM’s and containers, therefore RAM and threads.
Do you think people just beginning could get buy on 4 cores and 8 GB RAM for a while?
For most people I think they just want to have some NAS and a reliable machine. But please grant them 16 GB, otherwise they would ask why their laptop has so much more than their server :-)
I would absolutely want the extra router because most people have one from their service provider. For self hosting, you want an additional router with your own software.
The hypothesis is that $150 of equipment to avoid dozens of hours of software configuration
OK fair try, but you also need to sell me 20-25 TB of disk space on 5 spindles (plus a SSD for the bootdisk), 64 GB RAM (with a chance to go up to 128) and the CPU must have 16 threads or more.
Either a defective RAM or a physically broken (bent) mainboard.
Bot posting?
we can have 5~10 photos which are basically duplicates
Have any of you guys handled a similar situation?
I decide which one is the best and then delete the others. Sometimes I keep 2, but that’s an exception. I do that as early as possible.
I don’t mind about storage space at all (still many TB free), but keeping (near-)duplicates costs valuable time of my life. Therefore I avoid it.
even allowed in Germany?
Yes.
works well on my LAN network, but when I try to make the server accessible via a DynDNS service
I guess your Fritzbox does NAT for your LAN. Then the dyndns address works only when the client is outside.
Nah… vim users fight emacs users, but not nano users. Wrong league. We do not beat little children ;)
all that data would become inaccessible to my OMV.
Why?
Nothing gets destroyed unless your OMV actively destroys things (which is very unlikely)
A zpool is easily portable to a new machine/VM.
LOL It is one of the most well known things about perl that the language is as mighty as probably no other programming language.
Only 5 years ago, everybody would be singing and shouting “perl”.
Nowadays it is python that has taken this position (even though Perl is still there and can do so much more).
Steam library
backups
media library
Wonderful.
But these are libraries. Not single files.
My company serves millions, too. We don’t have such needs.
two files in the same folder, one of them stored compressed on an array of HDDs in RAID10 and the other one stored on a different array […]
Now that’s what I call serious over-engineering.
Who in the world wants to use that?
And does that developer maybe have some spare time? /s
Is your system drive really that: just a system drive? Then you’d better install it from scratch and have a clean, shiny and new system.
Backup a few settings maybe. Or maybe not.
enforce tagging at the switch level (i.e. don’t trust the cameras to maintain their own VLAN) settings.
Very smart solution!
Go to youtube and work through a few of these. …for dummies tutorials.
