  • I've decided to switch since nearly all the programs I use are either cross-platform (e.g. Inkscape) or have good Linux alternatives (e.g. Okular rather than SumatraPDF). The only hiccups I might get would be games, but I only really play a few retro games w/ emulators and just a couple games (the latter of which I've checked are all supported by Proton). Also, if I do run into issues with games, I can always just partition like 100GB for Windows and the rest for my distro of choice.

  • unfortunately could not fix my issue :(

  • just tried it both with sudo and as root, also tried it with /var/lib/radicale/collections. The error still occurs, and there's a warning note that says that the directory doesn't exist and is being created even though I've already created it with mkdir

  • ooh that seems really helpful, thanks :D

    I'll try that once I come home

  • I'll try that, but I'm pretty sure I've done that already. I might be wrong though, thanks! (maybe I did the command wrong)

  • I tried installing an ISO and it black screened. weird.

  • Okay, so CasaOS is easier to set up (but uses more resources and I won't learn sysadmin stuff) whereas using something like Debian is a bit harder to set up (but uses less resources and learn more!).

    Think I might try CasaOS on my 11th gen laptop and plain Debian on my 6th gen laptop and see which I prefer

  • OHHH that's why I couldn't find out how to install it. Got it.

  • Ah got it. I've installed debian since yunohost had issues installing for whatever reason. Weird.

  • Writing down different commands on a note seems like a good idea. Thanks!

  • What kind of issues?

  • TrueNAS scale seems like the perfect option, the only downside is that my old laptops don't meet the hardware requirements

  • Cosmos does look quite good. TrueNAS can't run on my old laptops so HexOS was never really an option

  • I ended up installing Debian since Yunohost can't install and my old laptop doesn't meet the hardware requirements of TrueNAS Scale

  • thanks for sharing your experience :D

  • ah okay, gotcha. So no CasaOS then. Lots of others suggest YUNOHost, is that fine?

  • Woah, there's a lot. Nice that there's plenty of options!

  • thanks! Maybe I could check out cockpit and portainer too...

  • Thanks, that was really helpful :D

    I'll try CasaOS then, and later maybe I could move to Debian once I get better at the command line!
