Haha, oh I know and I’m all for trying things for the fun of it! Just wondered if there was a practical benefit of such a setup.

Interesting endeavor…any practical benefits? I would think that even a slow USB 2.0 drive would provide better performance than a cloud-based file system.

Craigslist is still superior in the PNW, at least in my experience.

I’ve enjoyed seeing some of these blasts from the past, but I admit it’s not as nice when the VM host window is captured as well. Just something to consider… I appreciate it all the same.

Completely anecdotal, but I generally find more success with servers outside of North America. Definitely helps with reddit and imgur.

Off the top of my head…

• Gecko or GeckOS
• LizOS
• ReptilOS
• ChamelOS
• KomodOS

Me too! I can’t recall now why I parted with it, but I wish I hadn’t. Would love to see what it could do today.

If that’s one of those old 10" netbooks, I had good experiences running dwm and xmonad on mine back in the day (had an Acer and later an MSI Wind U120(?)). Typically ran all my apps maximized, one per desktop. Firefox did okay, but this was around 2010-2012. Mostly stuck with terminal apps and it was more than snappy enough.

Some screenshots from days past…

See my follow-up post elsewhere here. Sounds like you might not have an always-online device to keep others always synced, and/or the devices you’re using to add entries aren’t online when you do. Might consider using a designated device for database modifications.

That used to happen to us before we started using SyncThing (and before we had data plans on our phones).

By the time we migrated to it, we had a home server running 24/7 and this ensured that at least one device in the chain was always online, had the latest version of the database, and pushed it to other devices as they came online. Our phones also have data plans now, so things generally sync in realtime which helps avoid issues.

If you don’t have at least one always-online device, I think the next easiest way to avoid sync conflicts is to modify the database from one designated device. That way even if a conflict does arise, you’ll know which device is always correct.

For resolving the conflicts, I would open both databases, sort by modified, and review the latest changes in each.
