For this I use a python script run via cron to output an html directory file that lists all the folder contents and pushes it to my cloud storage. This way if I ever have a critical failure of replaceable media, I can just refer to my latest directory file.
I’m in the process of setting up matrix / synapse for this case. Usability is yet to be determined because I need to recruit a sibling or two to test it out more, but I do have calls working on the element x app. Definitely not for the light hearted based on all the config options and possibility of federation.
Not sure about comfort… but I always find myself picking rocket league up on my steam deck for a few matches. Probably because it’s a bit mindless and lets my brain take a break by only reacting in the moment.
