  • Personal files: Syncthing between all devices and a TrueNAS Scale NAS. TrueNAS does snapshots 4 times a day, with a retention policy of 30 days. From there, a nightly sync to Backblaze B2 happens, also with a 30 day retention policy. Occasional manual backups to external drives too.

    Homelab/Servers: Proxmox VM and LXC container exports nightly to TrueNAS, with a retention policy of 7 days. A separate weekly export happens to a separate TrueNAS share, that gets synced to B2 weekly, with a retention policy of 30 says. Also has occasional external drive backups.









    • Main Gaming/Editing PC - Windows 11 - While I have had good experiences with PopOS as a dual boot, I’m probably staying on Windows on this machine to not worry about hardware compatibility. My main issues on Linux distros came to my WiFi 6 USB adapter not being well supported (running an Ethernet drop to this room is infeasible at the moment, but a future plan), power state issues regarding standby mode and shutdown, and the GPU (3060ti) only really working well on PopOS. Davinci Resolve also apparently only works with H.264 or H.265 video codecs on Linux if you get the paid version, probably because of licensing relating to those, which I may get eventually. I also like Windows 11 way more than 10, surprisingly.
    • Laptop - Linux Mint - Rock solid when you’re just talking about a machine with integrated components. Has Timeshift for system restoring preinstalled, and is light on resources while still fulfilling my needs outside of gaming and video editing. I can still play light games (it’s a slower laptop) like Celeste or Vampire Survivors fine though, but really leave that for the main PC.
    • ** Homelab servers - Proxmox running mostly Ubuntu Server VMs and LXC containers** - Honestly as with any homelab, this may change just for the sake of testing things, but having this setup on my previous Ryzen 5 1600 desktop, and an HP mini PC works out pretty well. Most of what I test or use is at the service or development level anyway.
