It’s Sunday somewhere already so why wait?
Let us know what you set up lately, what kind of problems you currently think about or are running into, what new device you added to your homelab or what interesting service or article you found.
I’ll post my ongoing things later/tomorrow but I didn’t want to forget the post again.
I know this isn’t sexy but I’ve been working on my documentation. Getting configs etc properly versioned in my gitea instance, readmes updated etc. My memory is not what it once was and I need the hints when things break.
Same here. I got Gemini to write a shell script for me that I can run on my Proxmox host which will output all of my configs to a .txt file. I asked it to format the output in a way a LLM can understand so I can just copy/paste it next time I need to consult AI.
This sounds interesting. Although I’m not even sure of what sort of configuration I would need to keep between reinstalls lol.
Mostly the stuff in /etc/pve, plus whatever you installed in additional software
Pretty cool! I also try to improve my documentation
My girlfriends phone was having issues connecting to self hosted servers, so I set her DNS from private to network default. Hope this helps any android users that may have issues.
I’m trying to figure out setting up TrueNAS scale and docker for the first time. Building a NAS and self hosting a few things from an old all in one mini PC.
Today I’m experimenting with Ansible. Wanna try setting up a Docker hosted RSS reader with it. Hopefully will write up controls for my whole Docker server with Ansible once I’m more familiar.
I’ve been trying to learn K8s and more recently the Gateway API. The struggles are that most Helm charts don’t know Gateway (most are barely Ingressroute) and I’m trying to find a solution to one service affecting the other gateways.when a service cannot find a pod, the httproute fails and when one route fails, the ingress fails. It’s a weird cascading problem.
Right now, I’m considering adding a secondary service to each gateway that resolves to a static error page. I haven’t looked into it yet; it cane to me in the brief moment of clarity before I fell asleep last night.
Also, I may be doing everything wrong, but I am learning and learning is fun.
Moved my fediverse apps friendica, lemmy, 35c. (only user is me) to one server since it was overkill having 2 barely using 8% if that if their cpu/ram. Suprisingly easy with yunohost backups, remade users and restored backup if just the apps. Updated enhance panel, switched the sites im making for family to use as a portfolio for local webdev to ols, fairly easy, was using wordpress templates wrong so I fixed that and redid the home pages, now I feel less confident with wordpress and wonder if ive always made sites wrong, think i just forgot since its been years.
Great to hear the yunohost migration worked. What’s 35C?
I initially fd it up because I didnt deselect everything but the apps, but I at least thought to backitup and dload it locally beforehand so it was an easy/quick recovery
I have no idea lmao, prob a typo lol, I had streams and pleroma as well
This is what I found, a Discord bot. Hopefully GP comes back with an answer.
Setting up let’s encrypt auto cert renewal with ACME. Also looking to setup some monitoring service, basic stuff like CPU, memory usage etc. If anyone has recommendations that have an android app available, that would be awesome.
ACME.sh? I love that little tool.
Cert renewal via DNS-01, independent of any other services or ports. Set it up like 7 years ago and haven’t had to touch it since.
I’m personally using Prometheus Stack and like it, but I just check Grafana in my Android browser. I think Zabbix has an Android app but I don’t know if it has as many possibilities as Prometheus.
Looking for a self-hosted period tracking app with companion android app. Have done literally zero investigation at this point but it’s on my todo.
period tracking app surveillance… how did we as society come to accept this?
That’s definitely one of those things I found bizarre and awful yet…entirely unsurprising. I can see how selling that data probably sounds like such a lucrative edge to marketing companies.
how did we as society come to accept this?
By not establishing ethical
lineshigh-voltage containment fences on the advertising industry quickly enough, and letting them convince us “this is just how business works”, when their entire existence is about finding the scummiest ways to hack free will for profit.Did system76 doing cosmic lit fire under gnome devs asses?
Hehe I think you might have been replying to a different thread. :)
No idea how this happened lol
IMO you should stick with a local device store only. If you’re worried about the state getting hold of the data, having any backups is gonna be a liability.
I setup a VPN for my moms Synology so I can request and download media for her through my local qbit instance and using Radarr/Sonarr to move the files over.
I have a problem where both arrs don’t auto start when I power up the debian VM in Proxmox even though the daemon is running and restart policy is set to always…
She doesn’t make a lot of requests so I just go and start them manually but I would eventually like to get it fixed…
I’m running Nextcloud and PaperlessNXG on my servers. Over the last few months I tested out my remote management. Now that I’m back home, I’ve been making a few adjustments based on my learnings. Firstly, Wireguard is slower than a turtle, while Tailscale has been a little bit faster. I’m guessing this is due to my upload speed and switching to fiber may fix this.
I’d also like to add TubeArchivist back in since there’s some great videos that I don’t trust Google to preserve given the direction things are going.
The folks on the “privacy” Lemmy gave me some good tips on app replacements and after making a big spreadsheet with all my apps, their licenses, etc., I cut down my remaining proprietary apps by at least 50% and I only have a few proprietary essentials that still depend on Google Play. I’ve been meaning to do this for a long time and I almost have a path towards completely removing all Google, Amazon, and Microsoft products from my life.
Next, I’d like to set up Wander to eventually get rid of Garmin/Strava but I haven’t been able to figure it out and I’m still locked in to some degree because of my hardware (Garmin watch). The Ring doorbell has to be the next thing to go, but I’m exhausted and haven’t had the motivation to start a new project until the dust settles from the last one.
I’ve recently setup an recipe archival project using tandoor, I’m working on converting all my grandparents fading old as dust cooking recipes from their misc handwritten cursive notecards to digital.
Setup was uneventful but it took a little research to figure out how to use a remote postgres server, turns out the app doesn’t give an error when it can’t connect to the server, it just fails to run
Have to say the actual program itself is absolutely absurd and how they choose their permissions, it breaks all conventional and took quite a bit to get used to.
Managed to set up immich remote machine learning (old 7th gen Optiplex to gaming PC). If only I bought an nvidia card… I wasn’t able to get it my AMD 7800 XT to work with immich ML… Next up is setting up microservices because immich is crippling my unraid server 🤦🏼😭
Wow. I was thinking of setting up immich. Why is it crippling your unraid server?
Honestly I’m not sure. I had the ML on my AMD gaming PC but the other (metadata and thumbnail) services were still on the unraid server… Photoprism doesn’t have that issue at all…
I’ve switched back to PP until I sort out the microservices…
Trying to figure out how to get my qBittorrent docker container to route all traffic through my VPS through wireguard. The catch is that the webui needs to be accessible through LAN.
Considering moving my stuff into a VirtualBox VM or two rather than running directly on my PC. Then at some point in the future when I have the hardware for it I can fairly easily move it to proxmox. Also means installing a clean OS on my main PC is a quicker task as it would just be install virtual box, load up the VMs and a lot of stuff would already be done.
Consider using containers. I used to think this way, though now my goal is to get down to almost all containers since it’s nice to be able to spin up and down just what the one ‘thing’ needs.
Working on Smart Playlists for Pinepods I’m the developer of the self-hosted podcast management server and Sunday is always my new feature day. I’ve had a lot of fun adding in new features lately. Like designing a homepage and adding OIDC login support. Don’t let anybody tell you auth isn’t fun.
Oh wow, I hadn’t known pinepods! I’ve been looking for a selfhosted podcast management thing for literal years and recently audiobookshelf popped up, but maybe I should check Pinepods instead! I don’t have audiobooks anyways. Are there Android Apps that can be used as a frontend?
Btw, github links to
https://pinepods.online/
, but the website seems to be exclusively available onhttps://www.pinepods.online/
.Edit: Just found you release an Android app as well. I’ll have a look!
Yep! The Android App is somewhat in the works. It compiles, works and has all the features of the web version currently. The things that don’t work are the aspects that make it an actual Android app. Like local device downloads and integration with Android APIs. That stuff is coming. After this next minor release getting to those are my priority.
Not that I’m biased or anything, but Pinepods objectively has WAYYY more features than audiobookshelf for podcast management. Because it’s a podcast server of course. Things like podcast 2.0 support with chapters, hosts, and transcripts, YouTube channel support, embedded podcast Index, YouTube and iTunes search support, external RSS feed support, etc. Audiobookshelf is great, but it’s an audiobook app. It’d probably be clutter to add a lot of this stuff.
And true on the link. It should redirect though.
