Yes, I know that the are dozens of notes apps. I'm looking for recommendations based on a few features that I like:

• nice design (including color coding)
• easy checklists
• sharing - this one is key. I use a shared shopping list and we both need to add and edit.
• pinning and archiving (hidden notes)

I don't mind running it from my homelab server, but that is not a requirement. Does anyone use a notes app that you love? Let me know!

As the title says...

Is this a risky thing?

EDIT: I have a wireguard VPN set up for myself and it's always on so I can access \*arrs and the like. I would like to expose immich on my domain to share photo albums and such.

It's really nice. I liked the setup process.

Hello, have setup my proxmox server since some weeks recently I found that LXC containers could be useful as it really separate all my services in differents containers. Since then I figured out to move my docker's services from a vm into several LXC containers. I ran into some issues, the first one is that a lot of projects run smoother in docker and doesn't really have a "normal" way of being package... The second thing is related to the first one, since they are not really well implemented into the OS how can I make the updates? So I wonder how people are deploying their stuffs on LXC proxmox's containers? Thanks for your help!

EDIT : Tried to install docker upon debian LXC but the performances were absolutely terrible...

I currently have two TVs, one I use an appleTV with and the other with a googleTV HD (device formerly known as Chromecast), but they both have issues.

The jellyfin app on appleTV is messed up, it fucks up audio and subs all the time, and in general has a hard time with media that has multiple audio tracks, not using the audio I select with the remote.

The googleTV just stutters with almost everything, direct stream or transcoded doesn't matter. All of my library is just 1080p, I have proper wifi to it, all mobile devices stream just fine.

So neither of these provide me with a solution that really works.

What solutions can you recommend, that allows for seamless navigation of jellyfin with my remote? I don't want anything resembling a mouse/keyboard combo for navigation whatsoever.

Hi, I recently bought an Epson Ecotank ET-4850. Pretty happy actually with the printer itself, scanning quality is also quite good. However - it has a fatal flaw that i was not aware of.

I had an Epson WF-3620 that was able to scan to a folder, where Paperless-NGX then could do it's magic. The ET-4850 doesn't support scanning to a folder. It does support WSD, but that's not really convenient...

Is there a way to do all this with a Raspberry Pi or another device that's connected to the MFD?

A lot of selfhosted containers instructions contain volume mounts like:

bash docker run ... -v /etc/timezone:/etc/timezone:ro \ -v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro \ ...

but all the times I tried to skip those mounts everything seemed to work perfectly.

Are those mounts only necessary in specific cases?

PS:

Bonus question: other containers instructions say to define the TZ variable. Is that only needed when one wants a container to use a different timezone than the host?

Hi! I've posted on photofield here before - my self-hosted photo gallery software. There's been a bunch of changes since last time that you can check out in the CHANGELOG, but this is my first attempt to write about why I made it and how it's different! Any feedback is welcome!

Edit: Solution

Yeah, thanks to u/postnataldrip@lemmy.world I contacted my ISP and found out that in fact they were blocking my port forwarding capabilities. I gave them a call and I had to pay for a public IP address plan and now it's just a matter of testing again. Thank you very much to everyone involved. I love you. It was Megacable by the way. If anyone from my country ever encounters the same problem I hope this post is useful to you.

Here's the original post:

Hey!

Ok, so I'm trying to figure this internet thing out. I may be stupid, but I want to learn.

So, what I'm essentially doing is trying to host my own raw html website on my own hardware and get it out to the internet for everyone to see (temporarily of course, I don't want to get in trouble with hackers and bots) I just want to cross that out of my bucket list.

What I've done so far:

• I set up a qemu/kvm virtual machine with debian as my server
• I configured a bridge so that it's available to my local network
• I got my raw html document
• I'm serving it locally with nginx
• I tried to set up port forwarding (I get stuck here)

Right now everyone in my home can see my ugly website if they go to 192.168.1.114:8080 (since I'm serving it through port 8080).

However, I want to be able to go outside (I'm testing it with my mobile network using mobile data) to see my website.

I've configured port forwarding on my ZTE router (ISP-issued) with the following parameters:

!

But now, if I search for my public IP address on my phone I don't get anything. Even if I go to my.public.ip.address:8080 (did you think I was gon-give you my public ip?)

I don't get anything. I've tried ping and curl. ping doesn´t even transmit the packages, curl says "Could not connect to server".

So, If you guys would be so kind as to point me in the right direction, I pose the following questions :

• How do I even diagnose this?
• What am I missing?
• Am I being too stupid?
• What do I do now?

(Here's a preview of my ugly website)

!

I also own a domain (with cloudflare) so, next step is getting that set-up with a DNS or something.

Thank youuuuuuu <3

Hi,

I've selfhosted Grav for two years going to three, but I want to move on to something else. I am looking for a flatfile CMS. I have experimented a bit and the best I found so far is Automad, but it isn't quite there. What alternatives can you recommend? PHP is where I am leaning.

Thanks.

Edit: Given my unclear query, I have struggled themeing. It has always been a pain and for whatever reason, documenting is somewhat unclear.

Hello,

I am trying to setup Authelia using apalrd tutorial.

In the configuration file, I need to setup a SMTP server to send email from.

I am currently using proton mail and they don't have smtp support out of the box, you have to go through their bridge.

I've tried to find tutorial on how to use Proton Bridge CLI to be able to use it as my SMTP locally, but the information seems scarce on that front. (keep in mind that I am no expert).

So my question is as follows : what are my option to have a functional SMTP configuration on my Authelia server?

Thank you

Hey everyone. So I created a wire guard tunnel to my home network in order to access my are containers but all I can access is my router login page and one of my access point login page. All being in the same range is 192.168.3.1(router), 192.168.3.2 (access point and switch) and 192.168.3.10 server. My arr listen to their respective ports ie 8989 for sonarr etc. When I'm at home I reach them with no issues. What could be the reason I can't access them remotely?

Mine is beaverhabits, just a good habit app that has come out recently.

Inspired by a comment on my last post.

I feel like I never have a solution that allows me to control it while also being automated to such a degree that I don’t have a huge confusing backup if I don’t do finances for days or weeks.

I'm looking for a simple remote system monitoring and alerting tool. Nothing fancy. Do you know of any? Features:

• monitors CPU, memory and disk space
• can accept multiple hosts to watch
• has some sort of alerting system
• can be deployed as a single docker container
• can be configured using a text file
• configs can be imported and exported inside the docker compose file

I like uptime-kuma but it only records the uptime. Other containers I've found seemed to be overly complicated. They requires multiple docker containers for log aggregation etc...

I'm down to the last few hours of discounts here. I need to get my NAS and my server onto a UPS months ago. Both are already set to come back on when power restores. We rarely have power outages and have solar panels (no house battery though), so a full outage is even rarer.

I understand that a UPS can send a shutdown signal when power is lost. Is this a universal standard or format for this? If so, what keywords should i use when searching for compatible products? My father told me to look for one with Ethernet ports. I just want to make sure everything is compatible. I go out of town occasionally and as well as preventing data loss, I also need everything to go down and come back up automatically so I don't have to call a friend, neighbor, or my spouse to go mess with stuff for me.

UPS brands considered (alternatives welcome): APC, Cyberpower

Systems protected, Synology DS 220+ & BeeLink MiniPC running Debian 12.

--- Also, for anyone who has helped me out previously in my self-hosted journey, thank you! Things are going great and I have a few useful docker images running various services and have set up grub btrfs snapshots to easily fix my screwups. This community has been incredibly helpful.

I have a 2 bay NAS, and I was planning on using 2x 18tb HDDs in raid 1. I was planning on purchasing 3 of these drives so when one fails I have the replacement. (I am aware that you should purchase at different times to reduce risk of them all failing at the same time)

Then I setup restic.

It makes backups so easy that I am wondering if I should even bother with raid.

Currently I have ~1TB of backups, and with restics snapshots, it won't grow to be that big anyways.

Either way, I will be storing the backups in aws S3. So is it still worth it to use raid? (I also will be storing backups at my parents)

I've really landed on my feet here.

Background

Our road recently got upgraded to full fibre so I switched my ADSL supplier from 300MB to 1G (is it still ADSL?!?). I also have cable broadband at 600MB so last year bought an omada router with dual wan, then bought two EAPs and been quite happy with the speeds. My equipment includes a desktop PC as home server, and a mini PC with pihole and home assistant.

Cable broadband (virgin media) just came up to renewal so they offered me 1G at same price (£35 a month) to compete with the new speeds on my street.

The new 1G ADSL provider had incorrect info on their website so ended up on CGNAT instead of Dynamic IP. It said they have dynamic IP for 1G and 3G lines, so part of the reason I went for 1G was this, which I made clear to them. They took a while to try and fix it and were pretty poor so just for offered a 3G upgrade for £39pm and 6 months free !!!

They're coming on Monday to replace the modem \router for a 3G one. I can keep the old router (brand new 1G wifi 6 router) as a mesh.

Advice needed

Please help me figure out what I need to change to make the most of it?! I purposefully didn't go beyond 1G as was not expecting this much speed for many, many years!

If anybody knows good resources on upgrading speeds past 1G please let me know.

For my home network, do I just sell everything I have and start again? Do I just use their modem and WiFi?

Do I need to check all my wires and potentially upgrade them? How do you check the speeds if they don't have them printed?

On my home server, do I need to upgrade the network card to get the most out of it? Will it be fine if the connection to the pihole DNS is still 1G if it's only requesting addresses?

I am sorry for anyone on lower speeds seeing this with envy. I do appreciate how lucky I am.

TLDR: broadband provider messed up so got ridiculously cheap upgrade to 3G ADSL and also upgraded to 1G Cable (dual wan 4G). How do I make the most of this given my equipment is all 1G?!?

Hi!

I have an old gaming pc (i5 9400F) with 16gb of ram that has been acting as my home server with proxmox. It’s quite large and quite loud and very overpowered for what I’m using it for (home assistant, Minecraft server, some lxc containers) and a mini pc (amd 5800h with 16gb ram).

I want to sell my gaming pc, place the HDD into a NAS (and samba share my plex library), and potentially grab a low powered N100 minipc to pick up the lxc containers and home assistant that my gaming pc is running.

New to self hosting so wondering if this is a good setup or if there are any glaring issues you see with this. What is your setup?

I was wondering, Do you know of a limit on how many rootless conrainers can one run on a linux host?

Running fedora server, I have resources but once I pass about 15 containers podman starts to hang and crash.

I then need to manually delete the storage folder under ~./local/share/... for podman to work again.

It might be related to user ns keep-id flag.

I currently have an HP micro server gen 8 with Xpenology with hybrid raid, which works fairly well, but I’m 2 major versions behind. I’m quite happy with it, but I-d like to have an easier upgrade process, and more options. My main use is NAS and a couple of apps. I’d like to have more flexibility, to easily have an arr suite, etc.

Considerdering the hassle of safely upgrading xpenology because of the hybrid raid (4+4+2+2 Gb HDDs) I-d like a setup which I can easily upgrade and modify.

What are my options here? What RAID options are there that easily and efficiently these these disks?

I don-t have the spare money right now to replace the 2Gb disks. Planned in the future

I make use of sharedrop.io to quickly share files between phones and computers on my LAN. Does anyone know of a self-hosted alternative, preferably containerised with Docker?

Hello there Selfhosted community!

This is an announcement of the completion of a project I've been working on. A Script for installing Ubuntu 24.04 on a ZFS RAID 10. Now, I'd like to describe why I choose to develop this and how I'd like for other people to have access to it as well. Let us start with the hardware.

Now, I am using an old host. My host in particular was originally a BCDR device that was based on a ZFS raidz implementation. Since it was designed for ZFS, it doesn't even have a RAID card, it only has an HBA anyways. So for redundancy, ZFS is a good way to go. Now, even though this was a backup appliance, it did not have root on ZFS. Instead, it had a separate harddrive for the operating system and three individual disks for the zpool. This was not my goal.

So I did a little research and testing. I looked at two particular guides (Debian/Ubuntu). Now, I performed those steps a dozens of times because I kept messing up the little things. And to eliminate the human error(that's me) I decided to just go ahead and script the whole thing.

The Github Repository I linked contains all the code needed to setup a generic ubuntu-server host using a ZFS RAID 10.

Instructions for starting the script are easy. Boot up a live cd(https://ubuntu.com/download/server). Hit CTRL+ALT+F2 to go into the shell. Run the following command: bash <(wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Reddimes/ubuntu-zfsraid10/refs/heads/main/tools/install.sh)

This command does clone the repository, changes directory into it, and runs the entrypoint(sudo ./init.sh). Hopefully, this should be easy to customize to meet your needs.

More Engineering details are on the Github.

Hey guys,

its me again with medication assistant :D For anyone who never heard of MedAssist, it is selfhosted web application that tracks medication usage. It's main feature is to send e-mail remainder when it's time to reorder medication. I have received a great feedback and you all guys made me even more excited to spend time on this project. Honestly, I can't believe how many people even visited github page, thank you a lot! Some of you broke demo page which helped me find weak spots, so thx about that as well <3. I received some feature requests and bug issues via reddit, lemmy and github. I spent some time working on them and now I want to announce an update (still develop branch):

• Possible to have Usage = 0
• Filtered invalid characters on inputs
• Reduced CPU/Memory usage by improving backend (hopefully no more crashes)
• Rebuilt Upcoming Schedules (more simple and lightweight)
• Added more styling to e-mail notifications

Demo is up and running again, feel free to try it or brake it. Fingers crossed there are not many bugs left. If it turns out it's stable enough, I'll merge develop to main branch and create latest release. Planning to add few more features in the next release. BREAKING CHANGE: Make sure you backup your database file (medication.db) and modify docker-compose Database path was changed (to achieve uniform path no matter what installation method was chosen), so make sure to update docker-compose with: volumes: - /path/to/database/directory:/app/medassist

Change to: volumes: - /path/to/database/directory:/app/database

Also change version tag to develop or v0.15.0.develop if you are using docker. Link directly to develop branch with new update: https://github.com/njic/medassist/tree/develop All suggestions are welcome and feel free to star the project on github <3 R---

I'm having issue making a container running in the network of gluetun to access the host.

In theory there's a variable for this: FIREWALL_OUTBOUND_SUBNETS https://github.com/qdm12/gluetun-wiki/blob/main/setup/connect-a-lan-device-to-gluetun.md#access-your-lan-through-gluetun When I include 172.16.0.0/12 I can ping the ip assigned with host-gateway but I can't curl anything.

The command just stays like this until it timesout ```

curl -vvv 172.17.0.1

• Trying 172.17.0.1:80... ```

I also tried adding 100.64.0.0/10 to connect to tailscale but is the same response, can ping and timedout curl.

Any other request works properly connected via the VPN configured in gluetun

Do you guys have any idea what I might be missing?

Right now I’m running a Late 2012 Mac mini (8 x Intel Core i7-3615QM CPU @ 2.30GHz) with a 1TB SSD, a 4TB external USB HDD and 16GB of RAM. It runs Proxmox with a VM running Docker (just Transmission-OpenVPN container right now), a VM for a Debian VS Code tunnel and a LXC container for Plex. I also have a Pi3B running PiHole and I use a Mac Studio for my personal computer (500GB SSD). I’m using Fios for a 1G fiber connection, a TP-Link router (AX3000) and two daisy chained 1G unmanaged switches (unfortunate scenario due to my small apartment), 1 near my entertainment center (Apple TV, PS5 etc) and another near my desk and the Mini/Studio/Pi.

I’d like to build a NAS server which I could also use for these services. Priorities being 4K transcoding capabilities and the drives for a NAS. I would also like to set up a WireGuard VPN so I can use VNC to my Mac and access home services when I’m away, this is done with the TP-Link router right now.

Right now I can’t decide between Intel or AMD for the CPU, buying something new to future proof or buying some older used office hardware and what I should prioritize (server or network)?

Currently I’ve got a mix of personal data in Dropbox and iCloud Drive, I’ll likely consolidate it all to iCloud and eventually my NAS and have the NAS data backed up to Backblaze as well. I’d also like to backup my Studio to multiple Time Machine backups and have them in multiple locations. My media is currently all on the external drive and nothing is super valuable, just TV and movies (removes eye patch).

I’m trying to learn Linux and some web development (mostly three.js) so I’ll setup a new VM, probably NixOS moving forward, specifically for coding and web dev learning.

I’m looking for hardware recommendations for the Proxmox NAS server and also networking equipment? I’d like to move off the TP-Link hardware and use something open source. Also any suggestions for other services to run or considerations I may have missed. For example monitoring, how to manage users/access like SSH, where to buy hardware, home services you can’t live without etc.

I know this is a broad AF post, but figured it could trigger some good discussions!

Hi all!

I'm stuck with a problem on my TrueNAS server. I suspect the boot drive is dead, but I don't know how to proceed to get it back up and running.

My setup: -HP Compaq 8000 Elite SFF with 8gig ddr3 -TrueNAS-24.04.2.5 -Boot drive: Kingston SSD A400 240GB -Data drives: 2 X Kingston SSD DC600M 960GB

Today i noticed that my Truenas was offline and I couldn't ssh into it. The nic lights were not showing any activity. After a few boot attempts I hooked it to a monitor and keyboard. No boot media detected. Then checked in the bios and the data drives are detected but not the 240GB boot drive. So I pull the boot drive out and hook it to my Thinkpad running mxLinux. I have a USB to SATA cable, that I've used before to troubleshoot drives. The drive is not showing up in Disk Manager. Output of dmesg -w when hooking up the drive is following: [ 2369.520731] usb 2-1: new SuperSpeed USB device number 9 using xhci_hcd [ 2369.547175] usb 2-1: New USB device found, idVendor=2109, idProduct=0711, bcdDevice= 1.44 [ 2369.547194] usb 2-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3 [ 2369.547202] usb 2-1: Product: VLI Product String [ 2369.547208] usb 2-1: Manufacturer: VLI manufacture String [ 2369.547213] usb 2-1: SerialNumber: 000000123AFF [ 2369.549433] usb-storage 2-1:1.0: USB Mass Storage device detected [ 2369.549917] usb-storage 2-1:1.0: Quirks match for vid 2109 pid 0711: 2000000 [ 2369.550061] scsi host3: usb-storage 2-1:1.0 Been trying to resolve this for hours with google but to no avail.

I currently have a two disk-zfs mirror which has been filling up recently. So I decided to buy anothet drive, but when I started thinking about it, I was unsure on how to actually make it usable. The issue is that I have ~11Tb on the existing pool (2 12 Tb drives (a,b)) and no spare drives of that size to copy over all my data to while creating the new 3-drive pool with the same drives and the additional new drive (c).

I saw there is a way to create a "broken" pool with just two drives (a,b), while keeping the data on the remaining drive (c), then copying the data over to the pool and 'reparing' it afterwards with the new drive (c).

As I only have 11 Tb of data which would theoretically fit one disk, would I be able to:

• keep the old pool
• initialize the new pool with just one drive and copy over the data
• detach one drive from the old pool, add it to the new pool (if possible, would there allready be parity data generated on this drive at that point? Wold the parity be generated in a way that would allow me to lose the other drive in the pool and recover the data from the remaining pool (drive) alone?)
• destroy old pool, add last drive to new pool

I would be able to back up my important data, but don't have enogh space to also back up my media library which I'd like to not have to rebuild.

alternatively: anyone in Berlin wanna loan me a 12 Tb drive?

What are y'all using for your offline game libraries? I ended up getting Resident Evil on GoG and started thinking about how I can host these on a NAS. Maybe something Dockerized?

Jellyfin for music and video

Immich for images

Audiobookshelf for Audiobooks

??? for Gaming?

My little nuc server. Had to change some bios configs today so I busted out the old LCD and since it was there already, did a package update for the hell of it.

Hello, guys! As the title suggests, I am looking for an HBA. The chassis I am planning to get is an Inwin IW-RS216-07 with 8x 3.5-inch SAS/SATA bays and 2x 4x 7mm U.2 SSD bays.

I am not sure which HBA (or perhaps multiple HBAs) would be suitable to utilize the full capabilities of the backplanes. Just to clarify, I am talking about an HBA and NOT a RAID card, as I will be using the system with ZFS.

Any suggestions or directions to which HBA to get would be greatly appreciated!

Edit: exchanged fdroid url with github

Hey all, I can't seem to block ads in Jetpack Joyride on iOS. In using Unbound on Opnsense and I thought I had pretty good coverage - unless iOS uses a different manner to get ads on there?
