What's up, selfhosters? - The Sunday thread

Almost forgot before going to bed but I feel bi-weekly is a good rhythm for this.
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.
Personally I'm mostly involved with my homelab migration so there's not too much on the selfhosting page except os updates. I set up meshmini earlier to access my thin clients via vPro/AMT but I need to configure the clients before being able to actually using meshmini. Once I'm done with that I'll finally be able to set up Lemmy and Pine pods.
My selfhosted stuff currently works fine without me doing much which feels good and lets me focus on hardware stuff currently.

You can use https://schedule.lemmings.world/ to automate the posts. Or, given the community we're in, you can selfhost it!
This week I've been doing some work on my GOG Downloader to finally back up all my GOG stuff when I buy new disks, that's pretty much it for my selfhost/homeserver stuff this week.

I didn't know that, cool! Though I should probably talk to the mods before setting up such a thing.

Experimented with selfhosting a Woodpecker CI as a complement to my Forgejo.
Works quite nicely, I just need to set up a native ARM64 agent as the overhead of cross compilation on x86_64 is quite big.

If you need CI, check out OneDev. It's a git solution that comes with an integrated CI solution.

Just swapped VPS hosts from ssdnodes to MassiveGRID. Got a pretty sweet deal, so I'm pretty excited.
Got my services transferred over this week and it's been fun as hell. It's interesting because I was discussing Portainer with my buddy and he has Portainer on his local PC to connect to his remote instances and with hindsight it sounds obvious of course, but it's such a nice little setup. Just finished setting up my Jellyfin reverse proxy so I'm gonna watch a movie and chill.

A third, and hopefully final attempt at getting an iredmail setup going. SPF, DKIM & DMARC all checking out fine. It's actually working this time. Need to get the ISP to change our PTR record though, last bit of the puzzle.
Also picked up a used negate device, so we now have pfsense fronting everything. That's allowed me to move the original router to a better location and put it in AP mode.
Emby media server moved off a Synology and into a proxmox container. Finally, we can stream high def with the hardware acceleration we weren't getting before.

I used Portainer for a while and still like it for checking out networking stuff, but try out Dockge! It's more open sourcey and basic, but makes updating easier.

Finally moved all my lxc onto a lower-power Xeon D host, consumes 1/3 the electricity of my previous Dell R430, same essential performance.

I upgraded immich without breaking everything. That's always reason to celebrate.

I'm the one who files the most bug reports on github under a different name. Our instance runs on LemmyScheduler, so thanks!

I've been working on some bash scripts to help manage my media files. I've been slowly working on learning more bash and I'm pretty pleased with my progress. After I finish this bash book I'm reading (can't remember the title atm), I think I'm gonna jump into awk.

Got Prometheus and Grafana setup with https on my Talos Linux cluster. Tried to use cert-manager with a DNS01 Challenge with Let's Encrypt but was using a local TLD and found out it won't issue it. So I had to switch to a local issuer. Was using metallb to gain a routable ip, I used the nginx-ingress controller for Prometheus and Grafana. Next time I can tinker I'll place the rest of my services behind it.

Dockge
Dockage was nice, and it was much simpler, however, I had to leverage more docker commands via my VPS with it, because there weren't a lot of options, specifically network settings.

Why not just use forgejo's actions and runner?

I like iOS shortcuts. This week, I created an iOS shortcut to scan my Plex library. Now this may seem weird since there is an option to scan a library from the official Plex iOS app and there are also options to scan the library automatically or periodically. For various reasons (excuses), I didn't like that the official app only lets you scan one library at a time and I have automatic/periodic scans turned off to avoid drive access, so I created the shortcut to scan from my phone any time I felt like I wanted to trigger it.
- Create a new iOS shortcut
- Add the "Get contents of URL" action
- Get your X-Plex-Token (see instructions on official website)
- Set the URL in your action to:
http://{ip_address}:{port}/library/sections/all/refresh?X-Plex-Token={plex_token}

Pushed Wireguard back onto my network. I've been a Tailscale user for a couple of years, but never really saw the need for it for me as I'm the only user of the service.
I will freely admit though, there's nothing wrong with the service and honestly is great if you are behind a CGNAT router or don't want to use Cloudflare for your tunneling.

Woodpecker is more mature and I can control access better since I am not the only one using my Forgejo. But I think at some point the built in ones might reach feature parity.

I finally got link warden up and running, but I'm chasing down some failures on a few websites.
Also realized that me biting the bullet for unlimited bandwidth (screw you Comcast!) means I can run archive team warrior, so that's been going.
