    You're right, if I really want to improve things, I should go for a Raid solution, but that invoke a NAS or a desktop pc I suppose, so... Maybe next year! Thank you!

  • I use a simple 2.5" external usb drive connecter to my router as a shared drive on my home network. I also use it to run my router's torrent download tool and get new content. The external drive is not new and I worry that with the constant load it might fail one day. It's also slow sometimes when watching content directly from it with kodi. What would you suggest I replace it with? Would a 3.5" external usb drive be safer?

    Go check Lidarr. It can feel a bit overwhelming to config properly but it allows you to sync Spotify to it's library of artists, and then search on a list of torrent trackers for your albums... Automatically!

  • I’m using Connect and am quite happy with it. I’ve tried Sync, Infinity, Jerboa and a few others. None seems to allow me to swipe between an open post (and their comments below) and the next one by simply swiping right (or left for the previous post). I was wondering if I was missing anything? Connect has an experimental feature doing something close to it but it’s not perfect.

    I thought there would be some of you at least!
