Sync source for alglolia. I'll send you an email as well with details. Perhaps you can guide me as to whether sheetsu would be good for this.

hey michael, OP of the referenced post. Heavy user of gdrive here, hope you're not looking to sell sheetsu just yet, we have some use cases coming for it in the next few months. :)

Love your work with remoteok. Tried to emulate it with a solar-focused job board. What all did you do to start generating revenues from it? I liked the fact you gave credit to the original job boards, and focused on up selling existing list

I'd be interested to hear from you. I think freelancers fall into a grey area because while there are freelancers that treat their work as a business with the intent of scaling/automation/removing themselves as much as possib

nice. so you read from ACD, because you're mainly writing to local? Or is there another reason for NOT reading from local? also, does local completely mirror ACD, or have you found a way around that?

I have the same issue. Running a Plex server (~6TB) at home, and thinking I need to put my media in a more accessible location. Are you using Amazon Drive as the one true source and syncing it locally to use with your Plex Server? Or are yo
