selfhosted

I have an old laptop lying around and I have been meaning to self host some stuff on it but never got around to it....

I recently got it into my head to compare the various popular video codecs in an effort to better understand how av1 works and looks compared to x264 and x265. I also had ideas of using a intel video card to compress a home video security setup, and what levels of compression I would need to get good results....

Hi guys! Just…that. My parents live in Europe, while my servers are at my home in Asia. Europe home has fiber at about 200Mbps symmetric, and Asia home has 1Gbps symmetric. But due to distance, it’s hard to get them to reach very fast speeds at all, being capped at about 1MB/s when transferring files or watching Jellyfin. Is...

Simple as that, I have a few GPUs hanging around and I want to build a GPU node for my kubernetes cluster. I already have one, GPUs are attached and it can do cool things like transcoding plex easy enough, but I’m starting to look to the horizon for my next big projects....

Currently I set up Tailscale in my Synology NAS and I can access selfhosted services on my phone using the Android app. I want to use some services in my work PC too but I’m blocked from installing any software. So my question is, is there any solution that allows me to connect to selfhosted VPN via browser extension? (Just...

I work in tech and am constantly finding solutions to problems, often on other people’s tech blogs, that I think “I should write that down somewhere” and, well, I want to actually start doing that, but I don’t want to pay someone else to host it....

Hi friends. I’m new to the whole homeserver. I managed to make a ton of progress very quickly using CasaOS but I’ve been hung up on this for a couple of days now....

Hello everyone. I just tried to create an account with linode and got the automated cancellation email due to fraud, which left a bad taste in my mouth about the company before I even had the chance to get started....

I run a load of containers on a NAS, and reverse proxy them through synology’s inbuilt reverse proxy settings....

Just wanted to share my happiness....

I only download 1080p unless it’s something like LOTR that I’ll splurge on space for. A comedy doesn’t need spectacular visual fidelity....

Buonasera, Mi presento qui perchè non so dove farlo. Sono nuovissimo di Feddit e lo sto provando in paragone a Reddit per lasciare FB. Prima di iscrivermi avevo notato che la qualità dei commenti è davvero elevata (quasi sempre ), quindi stufo di tanto baggianate sono arrivato qui alla mia veneranda età da boomer (sono...

I have started trying out xcp-ng as an alternative to VMWare solutions for virtualization. Currently I have setup 3 VMs of xcp-ng v8.2.1. I have also setup Xen Orxhestra build from source....

By the way, this isn’t my newsletter - I just appreciate it and like sharing it with the community. The owners do use mastadon though: @selfhst

I’ve got my main house server that has a number of dockerized applications, including nextcloud-aio. Nextcloud-AIO comes with a built-in backup system using BorgBackups. I’ve had this running and doing my backups, it is probably fine. Notable, it does encrypt the backup....

I tried debugging this issue for hours now but I’m out of ideas. I’m running WireGuard on my OPNsense firewall. It worked flawlessly for about a year but now I’ve gotten a really strange issue....

Hello!...

Hey fellow Selfhosters! I need some help, I think, and searching isn’t yielding what I’m hoping for....

n00b question, sorry. If I had a desktop that could hold 4 HD and 2 SSD, could I turn it into a NAS? Could someone point me in the right direction if this makes sense?

Hello! This might not be the right community but I’m looking at building a new server and you operate in similar areas and might have experience with this. I’ve got a GPU without video outputs, can I combine that with a CPU without integrated graphics and still get video output from the HDMI located on the motherboard?

Hello! I’m currently in the process of seting up an instance (for personal use, testing some stuff). I ran into this issue and while I did find some threads about it, they were not conected to Lemmy and I don’t have any ideas how to solve it myself. For context -> i’m trying to set up the instance on a remote device,...

I found this its the cheapest 10TB Exos drive on Newegg and looking to buy 4 of them. I will be putting them in my NAS that I use for my media library and pc backups. The price I’m posting this is $130, I’m also looking similar Exos drives that are $250 is there a difference? Should I shell up for the more expensive drives?

After a very enlightening discussion in a previous thread, I decided to plunge into a mesh type network to connect my various servers and devices....
