Yeah they’re fine. TechMikeNY usually has better deals though, at least in my experience. Have bought from them several times both for work and homelab, no complaints.

I’ve tried them all. CachyOS is the best by a mile, IMHO. Been daily driving on my RTX 4080 rig (and my Lenovo laptop) for almost 2yrs. Haven’t found a game I can’t run.

Pretty sure you could run Pulp in pull-through mode and add your local Forgejo/whatever registry as a remote, which would at least give you a unified “pull” URL. Then just use Forgejo actions to handle the actual build/publish for your local images whenever you push to main (or tag a release, or whatever).

Pulp might actually be able to handle both on its own, I haven’t ever tried though.

I’d recommend setting your sights on the 3-2-1 rule. 3 copies of your data, 2 different mediums, 1 off-site. Hetzner Storage Box is a good cheap offsite option.
