I mean if you’re trying to deceive people into thinking you’re not dumb as shit, and using GenAI slop to write your posts, that’s a good reason?

I guess that explains the transition to AI coding as well

1. Is it not possible to put it in another room?
2. Those servers are designed to go into a dedicated server room without regard to noise. Could you relocate it to a new enclosure?

Cool, thank you!

When you add a server endpoint in the settings, you’re pointing it at your own existing server (Dawarich, Home Assistant, Traccar or any HTTP endpoint).

Ok please forgive me, I’m unfamiliar with this terminology.

Colota actually has automatic file export (Settings > Export Data > Auto-Export)

Oh, sick, I missed that somehow, thanks.

Sorry for the confusion on my part.

I still don’t see a way to import data? Doesn’t do any good to back it up if I can’t import it back in?

There is no backup server. Users can create and add one if they like.

No I understood the server is self-hosted…?

Colota offers out of the box file export

I see that but this should be an automatic backup process. Plus there’s no way I can see to IMPORT that data somewhere else.

When I use an app like Fitotrack, it automatically makes a backup file periodically and then is automatically backed up to my server with Nextcloud or Syncthing. I don’t need a dedicated server for it.

Colota already uses WiFi for home detection (WiFi pause in geofence zones)

How can it do that when it didn’t ask me for an SSID? And what’s the point of the geofence if it doesn’t even use it anyway? I am cornfuse.

When wifi disconnects or/and motion is recognized the GPS starts again.

How is motion recognized without GPS?

Why a dedicated backup server instead of just backing up to a local file that can then be backed up to a service of choice?

Also for profiles, it would make more sense to use Bluetooth to detect a vehicle or WiFi to detect when you’re home vs. Geofencing or Android Auto or speed. How can it tell when you leave the geofence if the GPS is off?
