Hehe, you might think that!
In actuality though, I’ve always been the one who had to sort the tech stuff. My parents got our first family PC when I was 10, and I was the one who knew the most about it. We got the Internet when I was 13, and I was the one who had the passwords and had to set it all up. Then when we got broadband, the router was actually in my room lol.
So yeah, I’ve always been the Admin, and Dad has always been the one who needed a limited account to protect him from himself.
Yeah. When the cloud has more control over your own files than you do, that’s not a feature, it’s a problem.
I switched my Dad to Linux recently, and set his account up without any superuser access. Updates have to wait until I visit once a week, but it restricts his ability to get himself stuck in any update-related tangles.
I’m so glad I don’t have to support Windows anymore because that was much less predictable for me. Like the time it decided to upload all his files to onedrive (despite him having no knolwledge of this, or what it was doing or whether he’d consented or not) and made the Internet unusably slow for 8 hours by totally saturating his meagre connection.
I haven’t even tried it yet, but just from the video you can tell it’s going to be insanely good.
It’s the first bit of software I’ve seen in a long time where I took one look and immediately thought “Fuck me, I need that!”
I use Unraid for my NAS server and just on the off-chance I checked the Unraid community ‘app store’ and someone’s already created a Docker definition for it, published just today! The hype is real
I’ll be giving this a shot
