What's up, selfhosters? - Sunday thread

Cheers! Will have a look when I have time

Yup. It does individual/group chat messages too.

I really like the concept of Proxmox; however, it’s not for my use case. Mainly running a media server. As you have mentioned, I’m also sceptical about plug-and-play OS.
I just can’t make up my mind. -
While reviewing Cosmos yesterday, I stumbled upon another operating system called ZimaOS. It’s also pretty interesting.
-
If you just want to install some apps directly on the server, I'd just go with Debian headless and set up docker, if you like with portainer or some similar GUI.
-
And that is why I no longer run Nextcloud
-
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.

What router did you use?
-
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.

Did system76 doing cosmic lit fire under gnome devs asses?
-
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.
-
Just looking through the features, things like their own VPN.
-
So I recently sandboxed a webapp I am getting ready to launch.
Basically Unifi switch > Vlan port > Server > Hosting Webapp instances, worker instance, cloudflared and DBs.
Pretty chuffed at the docker config actually. Just configuring my WAF and tunnel settings with Cloudflare to reduce the scanning from VPS providers. Anyone have a solution or will I need to configure some sort of nginx instance to do it as Cloudflare only allows a certain length for each WAF rule for free.

My big problem is remote stuff. None of my users have aftermarket routers to easily manipulate their DNS. One has an android modem thing which is hot garbage.
Chrome, the people's browser of choice, really, really hates http so I'm putting them on my garbage ######.xyz domain. I had plans to one day deal with Https, just not this day. Locally I just use the domain for vaultwarden so the domain didn't matter. But if people are going to be using it then I'll have to get a more memorable one.
System updates have been a faff. I'm 'ssh'ing over tailscale. When tailscale updates it kicks me out, naturally. Which interrupts the session, naturally. Which stops the update, naturally. Also, it fucks up dkpg. I'll learn to update in background one day, or include tailscale in the unattended-upgrades. Honestly, I should put everything into unattended-upgrades.
Locally works as intended though, so that's nice.

Presuming you can put OpenWRT on it, it'll be fine as a single box
IMHO, I just prefer having it all as separates and then fix / change / upgrade parts as I go - but I soon run out of places to hide them
-
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.
-
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.
-
Anyone know how to set up NPM on truenas scale? I've spent all day trying to get my SSL certs and it fails every damn time. Just says the donation is unknown or that it can't find my npm install
I'm using a freedns domain tho so maybe I'm gonna need to try buying a domain.

What’s your alternative ? Owncloud ? No thank you
