Do the VR tools work well with a Meta Quest 3?

Yep. It’s arguably the best supported headset on Linux, perhaps even more than the Index due to some bugs with the FOSS stack. Shame it’s Meta though, so hopefully the Deckard actually happens.

• LACT for undervolting/overclocking etc

• lsfg-vk for frame interpolation (requires paid Lossless Scaling) windows app

• syncthing for “cloud” saving usually by creating symlinks to the actual game save dir

• Using unix signals to pause processes so you get a suspend/resume like setup without suspending the whole system

• Sunshine + Moonlight for streaming to my steam deck and also from a Linux VM to host sometimes. I can also use this setup over my headscale/tailscale VPN setup for remote usage, although I haven’t tested it yet.

• wivrn + xrizer to play VR games with a standalone headset

• hid-fanatecff is for Fanatec sim racing gear, although I haven’t tested this one yet.

I sometimes also create nix packages to automate download and installation of mods and prefix setup etc, but that’s getting into advanced territory.

yes but why would you?

Mainly because you’re required to use their distribution, or to build on Debian, which is not to everyone’s liking.

Of course that’s an argument against proxmox, and not virt-manager and the like.

Primary goal: Navidrome as server combined with a VPN (tailscale is probably the easiest to setup but not technically self-hosted). Clients can be any that support the subsonic protocol. I personally use dsub2000 (android) + supersonic (Linux) but there are others. I’d start by testing it on your LAN to see if it’s workable.

Secondary goal: if you can get all 12 people to install Tailscale on all relevant devices then you can continue to use that. If not, you’ll need to host navidrome (or an alternative) publically preferably with a reverse proxy for better security. You could alternatively try Tailscale funnel or some cloudflare solution to host navidrome.

There’s also endurain but it doesn’t support gadget bridge integration yet (gadgetbridge needs to solve it on their end).

You sound like you want something more like navidrome which is closer to a private Spotify whereas Funkwhale is closer to a public social platform like Lemmy or Mastodon where you share music and follow others (or a little like a free bandcamp).

You still need to solve the public access problem either way, however, as others have talked about.

Some subsonic clients also support Jellyfin servers, so that could be a useful addition here (although I’m happy with Navidrome myself).

This is a nvidia specific issue to be clear.

WebDAV is probably the easiest for syncing the actual articles. I use some standalone server whose name I can’t recall but there’s a bunch of options.

I also use calibre-web for accessing articles through koreader + opds on a Kobo ereader, although this is a manual process and could probably be refined.
