Ooh, nice, I didn't know them - thanks!

Thanks, good to know... although I'll do one other thing first... a full backup with clonezilla first ;)
That's comforting to know.
I have kinda the opppsite: a machine that isn't changing it's hardware, but it hasn't had updates in ~2 years (due to some issues with an AUR package back then...)
I wonder if it'll upgrade...?
I've kept arch-keyring updating now & again... so it should work, but I know packages change dependencies so, it'll be an interesting one (ie full backup first)
Do you have any other hardware between computer & monitor? (Ie a KVM Switch?)
The other post about display ID jogged my memory that KVMs (etc) don't pass through the data (sometimes?), so just wondering whether there's another factor here...
Not sure how it would only trigger this on updates, but just building a complete picture of the issue.
If you do find their site works on a other browser (and I mean, the browser, not due to an addon, etc.) then complain to the company / bank / etc.
If they take your complaint seriously then I'd persevere with them... if they don't then they're not customer focused and your business (money) goes elsewhere.
It's not just browsing discussed there. Re-read that again with cybersecurity in mind... online banking shouldn't be done whilst you're sharing a browser with tiktok (as an example)
Yep, there's private / incognito modes, but they just drop all the local session data, they're not any more secure.
:) you don't have to use containers, but they do simplify the install.
I don't use containers.
There's also no Setup.exe to download run where you just Next, Next, Finish.
So, instead, I have to install separate packages, configure them, deal with conflicting requirements, etc...
Did I have to learn Docker? No. Did I have to learn something else? Yes.
As someone else mentioned, spending some time learning what / how / why you're doing will help massively later on. Probably why you're getting Docker answers, they're auto-suggesting it to start you off with something simpler...
Yeah, good summary - I'm not using the latest version, but LiveTV channel changing still takes a second (on a dual tuner machine), but, like you said, we rarely watch LiveTV now and if we do, we're not really channel hopping either.
Yeah... I've been trying out the resizable cards and... well... hopefully the next version will be better.
Don't get me wrong, I'm all for incremental improvements and that means we need a Step1 somewhere.
I wanted to just change one dashboard, but there's no migration option (yet?) which is fair enough, so I created a new one and tried copying over cards...
I have a couple of Glance cards with a title and I can't really get a single row of icons with title to line up nicely unless I use a 3-row card...
But, it's also nice to slim down a Graph card to just 2 or 3 columns wide if it's a short-duration graph.
I look forward to the next revision.
I'm still dabbling with this, but so far I have a Pi Zero2W with a reSpeaker 2-Mics Pi HAT and an old speaker (no idea where from) that (luckily?) has the correct connector on.
It's ok as a geeky POC, but it needs work to gain sufficient WAF
How well doea the NUC perform as a Frontend? I have a small TV in a spare room which could benefit from a separate Frontend...
I think the main thing is for you to try doing a test restore of your data before you need to (and you already have a local backup anyway if your test goes wrong)
That will give you a better understanding of the whole process - they might be 100% reliable in storing data which is totally unusable by you because you've lost your decryption key, weren't backing it up correctly, etc (for example).
