Need to vent about HexOS and waiting!
FangerZero replied to FangerZero's topic in Coffee Talk (Off-Topic)
lmao I think I missed something. I was just venting, makes me feel better to not keep my feelings bottled up. :D sharing feelings. I'm just glad there's a way to potentially extend win10 support soon since I do not want win11. So it's like need to switch to Linux ASAP and a lot of the hold up is HexOS and it's partially my fault for refusing to learn something that I could very well learn(trueNAS). But I also understand the dev team, as I'm a developer myself and understand how the process works. I hate it, but doesn't mean I have to like it. I really do wish they focused a bit more on apps but they felt different projects were more important. And they probably were since the ZFS Anyraid makes sense to solidify that and that'll be great for users who are not tech savvy or understand certain things about raid. -
Just frustrated everything I want to hangs on HexOS getting to a point I can use it as a "prod" environment as well as more apps. I have a small movie/Anime collection I want to port over to the hexOS drives. I could probably do it now since it sounds like we can hook up existing pools? But the app I want to use JellyFin is far too complicated for me to figure out via TrueNAS I don't have the patience to figure out what to do Mainly I don't want to have to configure every little thing. The same goes for ROMM and Steam Headless. I want it to house backups of my ROMMs and my Steam Games so that when I want to downlaod them I can without using bandwidth. I'm using an old Gaming computer as my server (i7 2600k w/ a XFX 290x and 20GB ram ๐ lol) so I can play some games still. Oh the reason I want to slow down on my bandwidth usage because we have multiple people who work from home, and some months I almost reach my data cap. ๐ฅฒ But remember the ISPs said "Customers like data caps F* OFF) But the other reason is I also want to move entirely away from windows if I can since I've had enough of them. But to do that I would like all 3 of my computers to sync and I want them to sync locally to HexOS. ๐ So before I move my GPD Win4 to Bazzite I need ๐คจ to be able to sync all my data over from the Win4 (which has all my ROMs), And then transition that to Bazzite, and then once that is done I'll be moving my desktop to Bazzite too but the longer I wait on the desktop the better, cause I was dumb and have a 3070 in it. So yeah I just can't wait until HexOS finally says "we're making it official" and "look we have more than 2 apps have fun!"

HexOS is officially still in Beta, and they're planning to release more by the end of the year. I know that doesn't help you now, but ๐คทโโ๏ธ Beta. I'm in the same boat about JellyFin I gave up because it was just too much for me, and now just hanging out waiting.

ROMM has HexOS listed on their site, I found that interesting
FangerZero replied to FangerZero's topic in Applications
Yes, trueNas makes sense though since it's been around for a while. But HexOS has not. all I'm saying I find it interesting that they'd take the time considering HexOS isn't even out of "beta" -
I was visiting ROMM's site wanting to learn more about it since it's my planned ROM Manager when HexOS finally gets out of beta. Just making plans of the things I want. And saw this. I don't know if ROMM put it up there cause HexOS is built on top of trueNAS or if they've been in talks with HexOS about the OneClick App install. I just found it interesting since yes probably adding it to the little marquee is easy, it's the fact that they did it.

File Syncing Password management Cookbook (mealie) Rom Storage Steam Game Storage maybe eventually for remote play Media Server The one thing I am going to have to do more research on is how to get it to store my documents from windows so that I can then have it sync to my other non-windows machines. So it's my "cloud storage" but then use my Cloud Storage OneDrive and sync with that once every 3-6 hours as an off site backup. And hopefully it'll do a better job than oneDrive. One Drive has gotten better over the years, but Now that I'm on Linux and Windows I'd like something to harmonize my environments.

Already implemented Applications and Wizards
FangerZero replied to FangerZero's question in OS & Features
Yup... Yeah I've never been good at getting words across. -
I wanted a password manager so I'm trying out vaultwarden, I seem to have it setup but trying to figure out the security thing so I don't always see it pop up is beyond me. Which got me thinking if HexOS were to add this to their list of "approved" apps would there be a method to essentially rerun the "wizard" to change the settings but have it auto fill the wizard with what you already have?

I think making furniture functional like this is awesome! It's why my desk is the PC. As for answering the original question, I can't say I'd have done much different, but this Beta 1.0 has been a bit underwhelming. I get it, they need to get the kinks out since it seems A LOT of people had issues installing, while I fortunately had none. My experience has be optimal. I did jump the gun on a couple of apps, which installed perfectly fine without problems through TrueNAS. However, I look forward to JellyFin app being implemented, I just don't have the motivation to figure it out. So I'll just wait and not watch my content.

I've used JellyFin server running on windows, but have used Roku, LG TV, Android, and Windows to watch it. For the most part it runs fine but you may have to do some tweaking in the settings here and there on both the server and the client. Thanks though for the help, I've tried but just couldn't be asked to figure out how setup the folder structures.

Would be nice to see in the future when more applications are implemented in hexOS to see specific sections for apps. Like Plex is going to be a really big section on it's own so getting a sub-section under Applications would be nice. (I am not a plex user fyi) But the big ones get their own while more niche get their own category like password management apps I don't think there are that many idk, but those could be grouped w/ security in general or something like that. Just some thoughts for future forum organization.

Really good documenation will be key to success.
FangerZero replied to Soid's topic in Roadmap & Feature Requests
I think how to use from a mac/windows perspective is great. Like accessing the actual NAS portion a normal person may not know how to do that. I do since I've done a lot of networking with windows sharing in the past. -
Easy migration from old HDDs to new HDDs / SSDs
FangerZero replied to wvienna's topic in Roadmap & Feature Requests
I think it'd be great if when HexOS notices you're reaching x% capacity or y GB/TB left (set by user) it notifies you that you should consider upgrading your storage. Then it should send you to a guide on how to do it. This is one thing I am wondering, However I have 52TB so it'll be quite some time before I fill that up. At least I hope so. Also Send me guides if a drive is failing and how to replace it. I'm a noob so these are all things I've no clue how to do. -
I'm a noob, which is why I love HexOS, and can't wait for more Apps to be integrated with it. However it seems a lot of people are running their servers on 2017+ hardware, I have a CPU from 2011, a 2600k, a 290x gpu and 20GB of DDR3. At what point should I consider upgrading my hardware? There might be a max of 3 people streaming 1080p content, and maybe some 4k content occasionally. I'm not sure if they just happen to be enthusiasts and have these relatively newer systems laying around, or if I should seriously consider upgrading?

First party apps don't make a lot of sense, when it's built on top of TrueNAS they just need to "convert" it to be an easy install/setup using HexOS. So far the little I've used HexOS I love it, it was so damned easy to setup immich too bad I found immich not to be very intuitive to use. lol Still trying to figure out how to upload images from my phone. However, I wouldn't mind some general apps that we could pay for to help them make money, like I wouldn't mind paying X amount for a "lifetime" license for a password vault. Because if it's endorsed by HexOS I'm more likely to think it'll be a good product than Enpass or bitwarden simply cause I haven't used anything and it's a pain in the ass to find information since everyone talks about cloud password management like OnePass, etc.

I'd like a hoodie myself, WOMEN SIZES PLEASE!!! Or an XSmall "unisex" (also known as men) LTT-Store Small hoodies/Jackets are actually too big for me by a few inches.

I wanted to move a post, when I realized It should've gone into Users & Folders. ๐คฆโโ๏ธI put it in Storage. Not sure if that would fall under editing.

It'd be nice if the App card showed up regardless of screen position on the page, so here's an edited version of what I think it'd be nice to look like, this way I don't have to scroll up.

The fam finally decided to stop with gifts if you're an adult. FINALLY!!! I prefer to just buy people stuff when I want to buy them stuff. Tired of the "what do you want?" questions. Christmas is about spending time with family, not stressing about gifts.
