It would be nigh impossible to list all the hardware Bookworm is able to support. What are you looking to run it on? Anything obscure?

It’s a great learning exercise but challenging to get right and ensure your deliverability and basically impossible from a residential-grade IP address (if you have a business class static IP at home you could pull it off).

I ran an email server for decades but gave in and pay to host my email now.

If google decides you’re a bad guy it’s such a pain to crawl back from that and I prefer my email to just work.

I live about 90% in various terminal windows.

I'm multi-machine and play in my homelab stuff a lot, so I sit in mosh/tmux/vim all day long. This has been my usual experience for a long long time. My experimentation tends to be on the GUI side of things, trying out this "vs code" thing everyone is talking about...

but I'll still never live without a GUI, browsing sucks so hard in a terminal now. It's basically unworkable.

You're almost certainly fine. Check the Live DVD, but I'd bet it works seamlessly.

Did I miss something in the MK4 announcement? I thought the MMU was compatible with your MK3S+

For the MK4 stuff, I need to see an independent person do a side-by-side. I'm sure it's better, but I'm not sure it matters enough to me, a casual, to spend $hundreds.

Which features of Lightroom are important to you? The editing capabilities? Organizational capabilities? Cloud sync?

The manifold renderer is a game changer. I seriously didn't like OpenSCAD before that.

I ran on a Celeron J1900 for a while and for basic home services it was great.

I didn’t do any emulation or media transcoding so I can’t comment there. But I did run vpn / nas / web host kinda stuff.

That’s a beast! Post a video of it in action!

There are tons of good editing apps. Darktable is a good one to check out. Rawtherapee might also be a good choice. Gimp is the classic but more photoshop than Lightroom.
