    As long as you’re not relying on RAID as your backup. Don’t know why so many people struggle with understanding, RAID is not a backup. It’s a solution to ensure uptime in the face of a lost disk. I would guess most selfhosters shouldn’t be concerned with uptime. Use Borg or restic. Or if you are going to use zfs or btrfs then have a completely separate drive or pool where snapshots are stored.

    I unsubscribed after their video on Android TV boxes having malware because it was full of holes. But that was just the straw that broke the camel’s back. Their Linux coverage was atrocious. There were so much flat out wrong with their Linux challenge and much other Linux content. Their stuff on servers and selfhosting was ALWAYS fucking amateur hour. They ran a line between buildings and tested throughput with Windows file manager for fuck’s sake… god forbid they use a real tool like iperf or something.

    I unsubbed a few weeks before the gn video dropped and that was just reaffirmation… and then some. Because I had thought they were at least getting the gamer bro stuff and benchmarks right but apparently they weren’t even doing that correctly. And that’s on top of all the other shit like the anti-union and sexual harassment. That entire channel is a joke, it’s a shame he has so many subs and misleads so many people with misinformation.
