  • Dude, this is like asking “Which car manufacturer ships new cars with mirros folded?” Every driver ought to know that it’s only a matter of pressing the button and they fold. Disqualifying all those good manufacturers because they don’t fold their mirrors before shipping sounds stupid.

    Same here on this topic, it’s only a matter of running one command to create the user. Options include writing the instructions down on a piece of paper before giving the computer away, or close the little gap between post-installation and setting up users by yourself.



  • In which way do you plan to transfer your photos to the backup storage? In the picture I can see a camera and I assume it uses an SD card. I would, if I were you:

    1. Buy a consumer grade storage device with USB port, like those desktop storage towers from WestDigital
    2. Build a RAID with it if the data is important enough
    3. Connect it to my computer and just run rsync

    Some storage tower even comes with an Ethernet port and a web interface. It’s practically a personal “cloud”.

    Nextcloud is resource heavy, slow, hard to setup, and hard to backup/restore. This is from someone who has been using it from when it was Owncloud.
