Are you using a VPN? It might be that changing your exit IP might help. I've noticed captchas get harder to pass if your on a VPN that has a lot of traffic trying to pass captchas. Probably DDoS protection.

It's OK I was literally OMW to be that guy.

I would cd into the user folder that you want to add / remove files from and see what the ownership is to begin with and simply replicate ownership to match what's already there.

Generally, in my experience, modifying the backing storage for a nextcloud instance is more of a PITA than its worth. I would just mount the webDAV in your file manager. This way the nextcloud db stays in sync with the backing storage.

If you are going to be making direct modifications to the backing storage, check this form post on modifying the nextcloud config to have it look for changes on the filesystem.

As for the permission side of things, run ls -lh in the folder that you want to make changes and see what the user:group is for ownership of the existing files and make sure your new files match. Chmod and chown will be your friends here and chmod has a --reference option that let's you mirror permissions from an existing file, a real time saver.

Hopefully this helps!

IKR?? I feel personally targeted by this... And I'm OK with it.

Thanks! Flatpak-KCM is perfect as I'm thinking I'll move to fedora KDE in a couple days when f40 drops. I'm hoping that the Wayland experience on NVIDIA GPUs will be smoother there than on GNOME.

To add on to this, if you are using flatpak apps and want granular permission control, check out flatseal. Fedora (IMO) has one of the best flatpak integrations out of the box. Other "sandboxing" or containerized app deployments are snaps (made by Canonical), and appimage (I'm not entirely sure this qualifies as an app container).

From my experience, flatpaks is currently leading in adoption when compared to the other two.

I'm not entirely sure tbh. Like I said, mixed results depending on the app, but my working throey is that the session installer can automatically install apps that have the same signature and don't require any changes in permissions. I've seen some apps do in-place upgrades with no user touch but some don't.

I've had better success with auto-update using Driod-ify. At the very least the client downloads the updates automatically so it's just a matter of tapping install.

For container management I use portainer CE and for the rest I use CheckMK.

I dont know if this qualifies as a "toaster" but Ive used this docking bay in the past for a NAS and it served my purposes decently well. One thing to keep in mind is that random IO will be lacking with a usb interface. Also, this particular chipset does powercycle all the drives when one is removed so drive swaps end up requiring you to power the entire system off to perform. Also no integrated cooling may be a deal breaker as you illuded to.

If I was basing a nas build off of a PI, I would look to use the PCIe 1x2.0 interface on the pi 5 as a HBA.
