  • None… I tried with my Dad and even add some cool tools in additions (youtube dlp frontend). 2 days later he just reinstalled Windows on top because: “My USB audio dongle didn’t worked”.

    Guess what? I didn’t either on Windows and was an external peripheral issue, not an OS/driver issue.

    But he also said:" Too complicated for me" 🤦‍♂️

    Linux mint debian edition.
















  • This seems cool and is not off topic at all :) It does seem to answer to my “question” and seems a nice thing to have :) However, someone suggested Terraform but after some reading it’s not the tool I was looking for… Ansible seems more the like I guess ! But coolify seems also very interesting ! Different and more similar to my current setup.

    I think Terraform, Ansible, Tofu are the next generation tool to solve my current issue… They are declarative tools ! But I don’t want to rush things and have another dead setup lying arround !

    Thanks for your reply !

    Edit: There’s also an alternative https://github.com/Dokploy/dokploy in case you didn’t know :) If you know, can you tell me why you choose on over the other?



    1. Yeah I guess I have made it more complex. But what hard links allow me to achieve is to save disk space while still working on the file without changing the original one. Imagine I have to copy my files to sonarr, have a copy in my torrent directory and also a backup on an external disk… That’s alot of space ! This may be a simpler solution, but only If you have money to spare on disk space. Yes, it’s “cheap” when you have a bank account and money lying around, but that’s not the case for everyone :/. I think the ARR* stack works similarly and works with hard links !

    2. Oh… never heard of Terraform, will have a look, thanks for the pointer !

    Hard links are files…

    I guess so, but files are just links pointing to inodes ? :) Sorry If I’m wrong here, and please give me the proper knowledge If you are willing to share :)

    Edit: After some reading, I think Ansible seems a better fitting. Terraform is more for creating infrastructures while Ansible to manage them and configure them?
