Mod.io rant

I know I'm alone in this, but I really don't like how bonelab downloads mods. I've never understood why so many vr games specifically used a modding platform that requires you to be in game to download mods (for the pcvr version of a game). I'm glad that mod.io exists for standalone players, but I really don't like standing around for like 10-30 minutes to update and download new mods before I can jump in. At the very least I wish you could boot the game in a normal desktop window with a button to sync mods with mod.io subscriptions. I would love if I could just use steam workshop, but I get there are problems with having more than one mod hub.

Should I swap away from Truenas?

I'm consolidating a couple of my servers right now, and it feels like a good time to swap if I decide that I have to. (Current version: 26.0.0-BETA.1)

The main reasons I'm considering swapping away from Truenas is:

  1. I have a quadro p600. I've used it for Jellyfin transcoding for a while now, but recent updates to Truenas seems to have dropped support for it. I'm not wanting a solution that requires me to reinstall drivers after every system update.
  2. I'm wanting to enable SMB-direct (RDMA) for a direct attach cable to another server. This has been a key component of the upgrade I'm doing right now. From what I've found online, truenas doesn't support this now, and doesn't plan to support this on the community version any time soon.

Otherwise I've loved my experience using truenas, but both of these problems have been pushing me to swap. Any ideas?
