I’m curious: what specific strategies or habits have you developed to sift through all the chatter and zero‑in on the conversations, resources, or people that actually push your growth forward?

For example, do you rely on certain tags, follow particular communities, set daily reading windows, or use any filters/keywords?

I’d love to hear what’s worked for you so others (like me) can adopt a similar approach.

zigmigon Synology Lost the Plot with Hard Drive Locking Move

Running Ubuntu + Docker + Portainer on a NUC10i5FN (32GB RAM, 1TB HP EX900 M.2 SSD) — I’ve got containers for:

AdGuard Home (DNS filtering)

Scrypted (bridging CCTV to Apple Home)

Jellyfin (media streaming)

Immich (photos)

WireGuard (secure VPN)

The 2TB SSD is handling everything pretty well, but I’ve got a 2.5" SSD slot left unused. Thinking about adding a second SSD for either storage or backups, or maybe caching for media.

Any cool apps or tools people would recommend for setups like this? Also, curious about how others are using that extra SSD space in a home lab/NAS setup.
