I’m sorry. I can see how someone with very thick fingers might struggle.
My father has a similar issue. I watched him write a message on his phone and I think I found the issue with him. He cared very much about the accuracy of each letter. Doing so made him slow and caused a lot of unhappiness.
My advice to him was to stop caring and just trust autocorrect. It will autocorrect away mistakes and enables people to write quickly. But if you try to get everything letter perfect as you go there is no point to it. It’s a different mindset.
As for programming yah I understand the discomfort here too. I slow down a bit when at the command line on my phone too. Particularly with the flags and such. I recommend the fish shell though. It has an amazing autocomplete set of features above and beyond even zsh. It’s not just looking at histories. It looks at man files and gives autocomplete recommendations. Just Ctrl-F to complete.
As for programming, I have to ask, do you program on your phone? I would use my laptop here.
My “raw” error rate is quite high. My actual output error rate is quite low. I can’t speak for swipe keyboards though. I just use the standard tap keyboard. For me the in context predictive autocorrect works wonders.
With my old keyboard phone things were slower because I had to press down on physical buttons. With a touch keyboard I just lightly touch type without the need for effort or rechecking. It all just works out.
As for me I could never go back to a slide out setup. It was very klutzy and thick. Like 2cm thick. Crazy.
I’m happy with touch keyboards because they are faster for me and enable things like folding phones. But to each their own.
Thanks for showing me how passionate you are here. :)
Edit: the ellipsis leads me to believe that you might have been into tech while the n900 was around. You write with the passion of a n900 user. Did you have one?
I can type faster on my keyboard free phone then I could with my old phone with a qwertz keyboard.
Plus when I’m not typing I get more screen real estate. It’s a total win win for me. Not bad at all.
It’s ok. I would go with “user hostile” in this case.
Fair. But in that case best use a more appropriate word.
I get not being a fan but no toggle switch. But in this case it literally isn’t “enshittification”. Is it anti choice? Yes. Is it enshittification? No. Enshittification does not just mean “thing I don’t like”.
Here is a quote that describes what enshittification is:
Here is how platforms die: first, they are good to their users; then they abuse their users to make things better for their business customers; finally, they abuse those business customers to claw back all the value for themselves. Then, they die. I call this enshittification, and it is a seemingly inevitable consequence arising from the combination of the ease of changing how a platform allocates value, combined with the nature of a “two sided market”, where a platform sits between buyers and sellers, hold each hostage to the other, raking off an ever-larger share of the value that passes between them.

I know “Enshittification” is the Lemmy word of the year but you can’t just call everything you don’t like enshittification.
This clearly isn’t it.
I agree that’s why most of my systems run btrfs. (Maybe soon bcachefs).
But XFS is in the same tier of “datedness” as EXT4, just with more performance. Some apps like ScyllaDB actually require XFS performance crazily enough.
Btrfs or XFS.
No idea why people are into EXT4. XFS is more performant by far.
As a workaround yes. Just do your NFS exports over WireGuard. WireGuard acts as the authentication and encryption.
SSHFS will be incredibly slow. I would avoid it personally.
NFS will be performant and is easy to set up. This being said by default NFS is without any security.
The problem is that Kerberos is a huge pain to set up. I would avoid this unless you really need Kerberos.
If you want security NFS + WireGuard will serve you well.
Also I would consider Samba/CIFS if it is for local convenient fine access. It’s not super secure but for me it’s a good trade off.
You can fix this by manually placing the /boot partition outside of luks when you do your install. I did it and now my opensuse system boots in a reasonable time. Annoying to do but 100% worth it.
It because zypper is incredibly slow. They’ve been slowly working on the features needed to make it faster but they haven’t come together yet. I would guess early 2025.
Same thing happened to me. I ended up finishing up the upgrade in Sway. Not a great user experience, but it wasn’t a huge deal for me.
Just think of the NAS like a desktop that you ssh into. The only difference is that you install the server version of the distro. If you know how to use a desktop Linux box and configure it via the command like you can do so with a server. It will be the same except over ssh.
Hardware wise, normal desktop parts are good enough to build a NAS. You don’t need to buy anything special that is NAS specific. The only exception might be the case. If you want a lot of storage the case should be able to accommodate that. Some desktop cases don’t have 3.5” drive slots anymore.
I would think that any immutable linux distribution would be suitable. Just configure it with the services that you want. Is there any special need that you specifically need?
Ahh. Bone Apple Tea moment.
