Surely tar --help is a valid tar command, right?

I agree, whether or not it is good or bad, or readability concerns over nested braces. I fundamentally hate invisible delimiters. If it matters, make it visible. We have so many ascii characters, why not just borrow a few?

Totally reasonable, something like LVM can at least get you to a raid1 setup, pretty easily.

Raid0 (combining both drives' capacities) is not really tiered storage. You would want Raid1 (each drive is a copy of the other drive ), but doing this isn't a backup. How will you be monitoring the drives so that you know if one of them actually fails?

I don't think the RPi has a new enough kernel, but with bcachefs you can do tiered storage. By combining the storage of the ssd + hardrives, into a single block device, then make the ssd the read/write cache, and give the whole pool replicas=2, so that that if one drive dies you still have the failover of the other drive. Do be aware this setup is still not a backup however.

You still use keys?

I use pgup/pgdn every day. Especially with terminal multiplexers, as I am unaware of how to view the scrollback buffer of long outputs faster than a quick couple of pgup's.

I believe they changed some of their licensing from the fallout of their IPO. Just worth noting for the selfhosting crowd. I know terraform is being forked entirely, but I'm unfamiliar with the specifics beyond that.

I don't know if this is what you are looking for but I used :z with podman mounting and it Just Works*.

podman run -d -v /dir:/var/lib/dir:z image

From the documentation :z or :Z relabels volumes for host and container usage depending.

This method is perfect for fully controlling your traffic. As another option, you can run a wireguard VPN on the vps and route traffic back through the VPN. In my experience wireguard has better performance than an ssh tunnel and allows for actual network topology with subnets rather than just raw port forwarding.

Works the other way too, can do a LVM with RAID underneath. I currently use LVM raid 5 with XFS underneath. Though all the news around bcachefs has got me pretty excited to go that route and cut out the LVM middleware.

Is a soft fork, its purpose is to specifically stay in step with the upstream and working on new features the upstream isn't ready/doesn't want. As far as I know, they're the devs working on federation between selfhosted/any other instances.

People were uploading, and still are. Uploading a video for my friends, or a school project which needs no return open platforms work perfectly. Irrelevant to my point.

Companies/Content Creators are on the platform because it pays them. If being on youtube did not pay them, they would go to a platform that did, eg twitch, tiktok.
