    • Dropped Reddit and Twitter completely. Actually deleted my Reddit account and deleted most of my Twitter history.
    • Stopped using Gmail as my primary email.
    • Went back to DVD and Blu-Ray for shows and movies I think I might want to rewatch.
    • Slowly importing stuff I’ve posted on various social media to my website.
    • Slowly moving stuff off of Google Drive and Dropbox to my local PC and/or Nextcloud.
    • Finally set up my Nextcloud server to use object storage so I can use it for auto-uploads without worrying about space.
    • Tried out a bunch of different Fediverse platforms.
    • Made more of an effort to report bugs instead of just living with them or using something else.
    • Deleted Chrome as my secondary browser and installed Vivaldi. (I’ve been using Firefox as my primary for a while.)

    Moving stuff is slow because I don’t want to just copy it all over, I want to decide what to keep in the process.














  • I have a single Raspberry Pi 3b as a local file/media server running Jellyfin. I’m also running BOINC and seeding torrents of various Linux distributions. External HDD for storage, plus a thumb drive for the local media and another for the torrents so it only has to spin up when someone’s actually using it.

    It’s not super-fast by any means, but it’s fast enough to listen to music over my LAN, which is the main thing I need it to do quickly. Though eventually I plan on setting up a better NAS on something with faster I/O.
