How would that be leaking, home hosters aside?
Yep, that would be the ip adres of my €5 a month VPS somewhere in an german datacenter.
Ouch ... I hope I smell them from a mile away ... and change course.
As a #2 person, when my level-of-current-knowledge hits a ceiling and I ask for technical advice in forums or lemmy or even social media, it often comes from a #1 person.
Assuming its specialized knowledge few other #2 have.
Half the time I get an answer (about what and how) AND background explanation (giving context and WHY).
But half the other time a #1 doesnt realize easy things for them are hard for me. When they are miles ahead their answer assumes I have a host of other skills already in place. But I dont know what I don't know so I dont ask for them.
But ... every answer from a helpfull stranger is appreciated. Just bridging knowledge is hard.
Is "choosing which files and folders" an upfront configuration thing, or does it happen "on the fly" when opening a file?
It's a type of integration with local file handling:
- you see every folder and file in explorer / finder.
- they are just filenames but without the data
- they act normal and can be copy pasted renamed etc
- the moment a file is opened the first time, the data gets synced locally.
I use it to connect to rather large folders (bigger then my SSD) because it only takes up space of the files in use.
I deleted my comments seeing the ending side note about NC.
Does the MacOS NC app do files-on-demand?
