So, just a light post, I upgraded my Pi4 last night and found the Linux firmware breaks a 32bit install.
I’ve been meaning to change to 64bit for months, but as it’s my DMZ box for torrents, radicale, etc, then it’s just finding the right time to convert an adhoc setup into my ansible scripts.
Luckily I had a SD backup from September to get it running again
So, what have you broken over the holidays?


I attempted to update Nextcloud and failed spectacularly. Need to rebuild our family calendars now.
Of all the nightmare rebuilds, nextcloud scares me the most. I have backup images of that machine laying around like drink coasters.
I’ve had next cloud break on me before and it runs slow, so I switched to Seafile instead for files, but actually Seafile scares me even more than next cloud because at least next cloud saves files on disk as files you can copy out to somewhere else if you need to access them (I’m not above emergency scp of important files to get the files I need).
Seafile uses some binary format that means I can only get files in and out through the Web interface. If Seafile breaks, I’m SOL to recover data to somewhere else and need to be able to get a working backup or fix it. I can’t just scp files to a local machine to work on them.
@Coolcoder360 @lemming741 seafile has a fuse extension, at least: https://manual.seafile.com/latest/extension/fuse/
That said, I switched from seafile to syncthing and never looked back. Turns out I didn’t really need the web interface.
