Proxmox
I went from a server distro (ubuntu server i think) to Proxmox and it was a very nice upgrade. Leave the core system alone and put your “mess” in LXC containers and VMs. When you know what you want, set up a new one with the good config, and delete the old one whem you are confident you no longer need it.
How do you guys test your backups?
I have restored my proxmox setup from backup and it worked, but that is not something I do on regular basis.
I have from time to time done spot checks that certain files are working.
Most of the time I rely on the verification done by proxmox backup server…
I do it manually. update the container version and docker pull and run
I have reduced the number of containers to ones i actually use, so it is manageable.
i use v2 instead of v2.1.0 docker container tags if the provider don’t make too many bleeding edge changes between updates
Nice to see CalDAV is on the roadmap. I will wait for that before trying it out, as it is the cornerstone for my system today (radicale and tasks.org)
I organized paperless in the beginning but not so much anymore.
I have given it access to my email inbox and to add attachments automatically. I can then search for receipts and more without having done the work to import it manually
it works relatively well. for sites and services that actually include pdf receipts
