For me it is not recording credentials with the assumption I would simply remember them later, while having every opportunity to archive them before eventually forgetting. Also, not keeping detailed enough notes & photos of exactly how my hardware is attached.

One sentence answer: "Object storage manages data as discrete units called objects with unique identifiers and metadata, while file storage organizes data in a hierarchical structure of files and folders."

fwiw, I see object storage used as a way to manage data regardless of the file system. It is designed to scale, as opposed to the file system, in large cloud environments.

Here is a recap from Google Cloud:

Object storage, also known as object-based storage, is a computer data storage architecture designed to handle large amounts of unstructured data. Unlike other architectures, it designates data as distinct units, bundled with metadata and a unique identifier that can be used to locate and access each data unit.

These units—or objects—can be stored on-premises, but are typically stored in the cloud, making them easily accessible from anywhere. Due to object storage’s scale-out capabilities, there are few limits to its scalability, and it’s less costly to store large data volumes than other options, such as block storage.

Much of today’s data is unstructured: email, media and audio files, web pages, sensor data, and other types of digital content that do not fit easily into traditional databases. As a result, finding efficient and affordable ways to store and manage it has become problematic. Increasingly, object storage has become the preferred method for storing static content, data arches, and backups.

Minio has worked well for many years. Haven't had any problems with it until now, but ready to migrate away.

Curious about thoughts on Garage as an alternative to Minio. It has been in development since 2020. Here is the project git. Documentation looks nice.

Curious what others think of it as a project that has been around for a few years and seems like a solid, open source contender now that Minio has removed most of their community edition functionality.

Show on using Linux and foss tooling for absolutely everything, as much as possible. Still a new show, which is self-hosted on free software, and takes a more project focus towards Linux tools: actually using them and sharing what works + what doesn't work over time. Please do share you throughs and suggestions!

Good to know. I've actually been using the tools I discuss on the show, as opposed to only naming off whatever is the newest thing without having actually used it. Good to know if that isn't clear.

Linux Prepper is related to doing everything myself with fully open tooling as much as possible. I've never seen another show do the same, so I thought it would be fun to try. Self-hosting everything, and using foss tooling for everything all the time, might not be practical, but it is a fun challenge. That is the intention.

Thanks, what about using Ardour or ffmpeg or another free tool?

Currently I'm hosting it on Cpanel. I contacted Softaculous and asked them to add Castopod to their webstore, then waited several months to a year-ish. My plan is to move the audio into Minio S3-compatible storage and then move podcast (yikes) onto my hardware. :)
