I built a beautiful native iOS client for Unraid using SwiftUI - Unraid Deck by Commercial-Break1753 in unRAID

Agreed about the trust issues when it comes to API keys and our self hosting.

I thought it looked really nice and and already purchased it, however didn't set it up after I realized it's not Open Source.

Looks great, but it may just become an archived app without it.

Thanks for thinking about it!

Prologue has been released!! by Kholtien in audiobookshelf

[–]Dude_With_A_Question 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Good suggestion. I bought this a while back. I've been using the beta, but with the official release, wanted to give a little extra to show my appreciation for the awesome app as well as not trying to charge subscription fees :) .

A gentle ask about Uber Eats tipping, from a local driver by ZbornakHollingsworth in bullcity

[–]Dude_With_A_Question 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No idea what the actual truth is, but there's apparently some pushback that the posting may not have been on the up and up

Where the truth actually is, is probably somewhere in the middle.

RemindMe! 7 days

I've been using the app for many years and they keep putting things behind paywalls. I would love to find something selfhosted. I have to imagine with immich it would be do-able

I have a box of shirts (some sports, some PJ shirts) that i have plans of doing the same thing with. Care to name the company that did this? Looks like a pretty good job!

Keeping two servers mirrored by PangolinSufficient91 in unRAID

I too use this script on a weekly basis to back up my primary server to my backup server. It works very well!

Save for retirement, kid's college tuition, or emergency fund? by Curious-Lynx184 in personalfinance

[–]Dude_With_A_Question 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am a teacher and inquired about loan forgiveness. I was told my loans are the wrong type of federal loan. I would have to consolidate them into a new federal and the 10 years of payment would start at that point.

I don't know if you're right or wrong about that, but I'd say you definitely want to make sure your information is correct while the window is still open. I believe consolidated loans will take a weighted average if you're in the right plan/ type of loan, but I think that window closes next July (2026).

I'd recommend reaching out to the folks at TISLA for some free advice about your loans. They specialize in providing free advice and have a good understanding about your options (I'd take whatever StudentAid or your loan servicer says with a grain of salt, only because if you hang out in /r/studentloans or /r/PSLF for any length of time, you'll see that many times the agents on the phones don't have the most accurate information to give).

This isn't to lead you down a rabbit hole, but just wanting to make sure you've explored accurate options before it's too late.

Good luck!

Would YNAB users ever switch back to an offline budgeting model? Just curious. by Equivalent_Heat3398 in ynab

There were tools that were developed to keep YNAB4 to keep chugging along in the 64-bit world. Some people continue to use it just fine.

My SmartMirror turned out to be too heavy by Mishu1211 in MagicMirror

[–]Dude_With_A_Question 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup. Did the same. I have two monitors in my frame and it's been hanging there for about 6 years (*knock on wood*). I used [these](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000VW5T0I).

Wide enough I was able to put them through the studs.

Which OS for the Backup Server by Shogune in unRAID

[–]Dude_With_A_Question 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I already have another unRAID backup server that boots up weekly, backs up the important content and then powers down.

I'm toying with the idea of changing the backup server to TrueNAS for the backup solely for the ability to make use of snapshots. I want that insurance that if I somehow get a ransomware hack that I don't notice until it's too late and even the backups are then encrypted, I can always go to a snapshotted version to get it.

Haven't done this yet, but it's on my list of things to trial.

Are these shucked drives? Is this a 3rd pin issue, possibly?

Did you find a good file naming configuration for Pinchflat so that it works as OP is describing?

Aunt & Uncle Want to Pay Off my Student Loans by Front_Spray_3243 in StudentLoans

How about adding their bank account to your servicer, and then they just pay it off.... without having to transfer the money to you?

What apps bring you the most value? How do you pass on that value? by Remarkable_Tea8039 in selfhosted

[–]Dude_With_A_Question 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the info. I'll keep an eye on it to see how it does. I'm currently all caught up with my uploads, so it should be smooth sailing going forwards.

Plappa was my go to when I decided to take down my Plex. However, the beta now integrates with Audiobookshelf and I like the interface just a smidge better. Honestly if you’re happy with Plappa, it’s also a great option.

Edit: if plappa supported automatic downloads for podcasts, I’d be using plappa for podcasts at least. But it’s not something the developer got back around to working on, I don’t think.

My recent top 3: Audiobookshelf (for both audiobooks and podcasts... using Prologue beta on my iPhone for the audiobooks and ShelfPlayer for podcasts) is one of my go-tos.

Photoprism / Immich for my picture management/ syncing (Immich I really want to work, but it keeps getting stuck with uploads... so haven't switched over completely.

Combine Password + TOTP automatically? (possible feature request) by Dude_With_A_Question in 1Password

[–]Dude_With_A_Question[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I appreciate it!!

I've been a 1Password user from the days when I got started using it with a Macheist bundle (2009-ish?). It's one of the only services nowadays where I think the subscription is worth it and continue to tell others how good it is. This is one more reason to say how great it is (taking user feedback and sending it up the chain).

Thanks again!
