Yes, it has a local webui by default. You don’t have to connect it to their cloud, though I do because it’s free and lets me get notifications if something goes offline.

Netdata for me, it reports stats and metrics for VMs and containers too, automatically, and it’s easy to install in Proxmox.

My gripe with NC has always been that keeping it up to date is a pain, I love the actual functionality. I’m in the process of migrating my install from a normal install in a TrueNAS Core jail to the containerized version in the Linux version of TrueNAS and that too is a struggle. I’m hoping that the containerized version will be easier to keep up to date, as that seemed to go wrong constantly.

I tried to make Grocy work as a kitchen inventory and shopping tool too but damn, it tries to do way too much detail. I’m sure there are people with enough discipline that it appeals to, but I really felt like it was way too particular and entering/tracking items across areas/brands/types seemed like overkill. Its whole system seems unintuitive to me and I never could get to the point where it seemed natural, so I gave up quickly despite really wanting it to work.

High availability storage is what the Ceph integration is for.

Edit: though it’s kind of a pain to set up and probably way overkill. A separate TrueNAS or similar appliance with a 10 gig uplink will be easier and probably just as reliable for your use.

This is not a good idea unless you really know what you’re doing. High capacity batteries and high power circuits are pretty dangerous and there’s a surprising amount of complexity to build a reliable UPS. You’d probably have better luck modding an existing UPS (say from a flea market) to use a bigger battery if you are really desperate to save every dollar.

Plus making it yourself you probably won’t save any money unless you already have all of the tools required, which is pretty extensive if you wanna do things right/safely.

I personally dislike the Plex apps, but yeah its native support is unmatched. The official Jellyfin app for Android gets the job done but isn’t native. However, Findroid seems like the future to me on Android and I use the Kodi plugin on my TV (which is amazing).
