    All the parts should be here by Friday/Saturday. Excited to set it up and start data hoarding.

    Are there any community apps you suggest?
    My firsts apps will probably be Plex and qBittorrent.

    This sounds great to me! Would love to see this tried out on a new experimental group maybe.

    That probably does mean that someday there will be fewer direct submissions to the root groups. The point of submission flows down into the subgroups instead.

    I used to spend an ungodly amount of time on a forum for Line Rider back in the day. It was a great community to talk about all sorts of things. I miss those days a ton.

    This is a really cool idea! Should the criteria for posts made directly to the parent groups be higher as well?

    Great submissions could flow up into parent groups from smaller subgroups when they meet a certain quality threshold and the subgroup intentionally sends the submission up the chain - probably using something like an exemplary mechanic for submissions.

    I saw lots of people saying the blackout was "stupid" while at the same time saying that it made them want to leave Reddit. Sounds like it's working to me (at least to some degree).

    This is my biggest concern too! A significant amount of my internet searches are in the format "<search terms> reddit" (or the reverse). I'm not sure what I'd do if Reddit dies or stops being reliable for easily finding quality info and/or discussions on an impressively wide range of topics.

    Is there a setting to make external links open in new tabs by default?

    Are there keyboard shortcuts for navigating the page easier (i.e. jump to comment box, navigate to previous/next comment at the same depth as the active one, etc)?

    Just decided today to pull the trigger and order some parts to build a DIY NAS. Planning on installing Unraid OS and Plex on there. Might use this thread for ideas for what else to run on there.

    I would love to hear from other 3rd party app developers too such as RIF, Sync, BaconReader, etc. Though I'm not sure if it would be better to do one thread for all 3rd party app developers or individual threads for each.
