  • Great so why can’t he take 30 seconds out of a year to say that? I’m sure people would understand. The issue everyone is having is the lack of updates. So essentially yes it is abandoned. No updates either way, no word from developer either way been over a year = abandoned.

    Great he responded to you but did he say when the next update will be? Or explain the lack of updates? I mean we could all makes guesses but the fact of the matter is it’s been abandoned and in its current state is broken. There is no reason to use it.

    Additionally this is hurting Lemmy in general. People will try to use sync for Lemmy because it’s familiar and not realize the issues they are having are with sync because it’s broken not Lemmy. Then stop using Lemmy. I know you’re well intentioned but you shouldn’t give people hope when you know nothing more than anyone else.


  • I mean all of that is good and well but basically all of this is just your assumption. Its nice that you “believe” this but you don’t speak for the developer.

    My issue is we have heard nothing at all from the developer. If the project was alive or just moving slowly I’d imagine we would hear something. Literally anything but we haven’t. If youre going to take people’s money be direct and just let people know what to expect. It’s not difficult to do. That’s great you sent issues to the developer when’s that update coming to fix it? This week, next year, never…


  • Not to say I’m not annoyed and they definitely should not be doing this except for their enterprise line. Would I buy another Synology again, no definitely not.

    However most “consumers” buying a NAS are already pretty tech savvy. When this issue happened to me I googled it and found and applied the script in 15 or so minutes. Run the script essentially once a year or so when major updates come along. Hasn’t been a huge issue. The issue will be if /when they block this script or other fixes.


  • I basically run this setup, Synology nas for storage and a nuc12 for proxmox. Things like pihole I run on both for HA. You will also have a much better experience using Plex on an Intel NUC with quick assist.

    As mentioned above the helper scripts will save you a ton of time. You should definitely check them out. Proxmox allows you to easily backup and restore. So its much easier to tinker and play around without taking down the whole network.


  • Seems like a decent build. Really depends on what the use case though is for your Dad. GPU pricing is just crazy. For that price id try and find a 9070xt or a equivalent Nvidia GPU. If you can get away with an igpu might be worth spending money saved on the GPU for a better CPU with an igpu and more ram.

    Personally I’m trying to build something similar and an really struggling between just getting a ryzen AI 395 in a desktop with ~128gb ram and hoping that’ll hold me over till discrete gpus come down in price instead of trying to buy one now. But it doesn’t seem like they ever will…

    Yes this is possible but the difficulty on how to implement it is largely depending on what router you have. Essentially you want to set up two vlans. One uses the VPN as a gateway to the internet the other vlan goes straight out.

    If you use PFsense you can watch some Lawrence systems videos on YouTube and he can explain it way better then me. Odds are there is probably a YouTube video out there. Some AIs like chatgpt or perplexity can also be helpful as well.



  • I mean this doesn’t look like a positive article, things are not looking good when a Republican is getting a high disapproval rating from Fox News polls. A quote from the article:

    “Meanwhile, Fox News’s poll showed that 56 percent of respondents disapproved of Trump’s handling of the economy, while 43 percent approved. And in another blow to Trump, an overwhelming 71 percent said they believe the United States economy will go into a recession this year, while just 26 percent disagreed.”




  • Jeez the cursing and the insults ooo gosh I’ll never be able to recover. The super smart man on the Internet made fun of me hahahahahah.

    Still haven’t gotten a copy of the financials which breaks things out. So that would be a problem. After you find them you’ll have to add up some numbers. You might need a super computer for that hahahah.

    I haven’t laughed so much in so long. People getting so irrationally angry. So thank you for that. Honestly
