What's up, selfhosters? - Sunday thread

Pyfedi is what you want.

I changed my proxmox server from zfs raid pool to software raid with mdadm. Saved me a ton of ram and cheap ssd's don't really like zfs, so it's a win win. And while messing around with drive setups I also changed the system around a bit. Previously it had only single ssd with LVM and 7x4TB drives with zfs but as I don't really need that much storage it's now running 3x1TB SSD + 4x4TB HDD, both with software raid5 so 2TB of fast(ish, they're still sata drives) storage and 12TB (or 10,6 in the real wold, TB vs TiB) of spinning rust storage.
Well enough for my needs and I finally have enough fast storage for my immich server to maintain all the photos and videos over 20+ years. Took "a while" to copy ~5TB over 1gig lan to other system and back, but it's now done and the copying didn't need babysitting in the first place, so not too big of a deal. Biggest unexpected issue was that my 3,5" hdd hotswap cradles didn't have option to mount 2,5" drives so I had to shut down the server and open the case to mount the drives.
And while doing that my piHole was down, so the whole network didn't have DNS server around. I'd need to either set up another pihole server or just set up some scripts to the router to change DNS offerings to dhcp clients while pihole is down and shorten the lease time to few minutes.

I tried getting it setup but it didn't want to work on my system. The docker container didn't work with some errors and the docs seem like they need a bit of work. I love piefed, but if it takes more than a weekend to setup then I personally don't have enough time.
Great software though.

This sounds good, the partner acceptance factor is always one of the biggest struggles. Technology is easy

I had a similar problem with Lemmy, UT's not optimized for small instances.
I went with PieFed und am very happy with it.
-
I got it to work then moved it to another server and couldn’t. So I get that.
If I can figure out how I setup lemmy would you want to know?

I thought WeeChat is the Chinese everything app?

My job let me buy a bunch of Pis to set up a cluster for a demo so I’m having a lot of fun

Half finished projects

Finally managed to set up tvheadend with rebreoadcasted IPTV from a private group witg functioning and automated import into jellyfin.
Works very well (if the IP stream doesnt crash) -
I have recently setup my paperless-ngx instance and have uploaded all my scanned documents. Now I have to tag all that stuff which seems like a lot of work. So I'm looking into paperless-ai... 🧞

I'm an idiot so it took me about 3 frustrating years to get all the docker containers working. Worth it every day

The Chinese app is called WeChat.

The Google account is still there, I've just hidden each of those calendars. New events seem to default to whichever calendar you used last (citation needed) so once you've created an event under the NextCloud account, it should default to that. The app I use (Business Calendar Pro) doesn't even give the option if a particular calendar is disabled.
As far as DAVx^5^, the default is to only sync every 4 hours. Phone to NC is instant (once DAVx sees the change), but NC to Phone has a delay. However!...
I just set up the ntfy app to create instant two way sync both ways. It's pretty slick. Dig around in the DAVx^5^ documentation about how that works. You install the DAV Push app on the NC server, ntfy on your phone, enable UnifiedPush in the DAVx settings, do a little dance, and then NC notifies DAVx every time there's a change.

Same as it ever was.

Sure! Truthfully, unless it's dead simple I'm going to let others host. I used to do dev work with it once in a while but I it burnt out quick given the fast pace nature.

Pis

What kind of cluster, kubernetes?
-
(pre ai) I found that adding a few, tagging them correctly and then adding the rest worked pretty good with auto tagging. Don't know how much of a difference paperless-ai is going to make but it sounds interesting. I would just make sure to only plug in a selfhosted thing
-
still learning truenas. i think I've figured out nextcloud which is basically a nightmare whenever I've had to install it
