Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    Sorry to hijack your meme thread, but would you mind teaching me the difference between the three and why your preference is what it is?

    Also, kinda bonus question, the use cases I've seen for WebDAV in my daily life is for library and progress synchronization in Legado and Moon+ Reader, does that differ from using RSync etc?

    Just use robocopy /s

    Is syncthing falling out of favor these days?

    Haven't used it myself but a couple comments on hacker news said that it's underrated because it works so well there's no persistent community/ecosystem around it like for other tools

    Only caveat is that it's performance in simple cases isn't as good as rsync

    zfs send -I

    [–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

    This is how it's done

    Alternately, btrfs send -p

    I just use the nextcloud client. Does the job and looks fancy while at it. But you obviously need a nextcloud server for that.

    How does rsync work with WebDAV?

    [–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

    Git and dokku

    rclone is a nice tool but it has problems syncing files that there is special characters in their names.

    [–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

    just don't have special characters in filenames, next question /s

    Thank you so much, how could I not have thought of that?
