Hi All. I have been running my own lemmy instance for a while now. I set it up sort of as an experiment, and then I realized that I liked having my own instance, as it makes me (mostly) immune to outages due to things outside my control, defederation drama, etc. So I decided that I am going to stick with having my own instance....
For me, it was PhotoPrism. I used to be an idiot, and used Google Photos as my gallery. I knew that it was terrible for privacy but was too lazy to do anything about it. When Google limited storage for free accounts, I started looking for alternatives. Tried out a lot of stuff, but ended up settling on PhotoPrism....
Any suggestions on how I could better cool my media room? It’s a small closet spaced room that has a vent from under the house and a ceiling vent (like you’d have in a bathroom). I have sealed off the door so that when the ceiling vent runs, it draws air from under the house as that’s cooler. This tends to work until...
I currently have a workstation I use for productivity and gaming, as well as a ‘server’ running on an old Athlon CPU primarily functioning as a file server running Unraid, with several Docker containers....
Maybe I’m using the wrong terms, but what I’m wondering is if people are running services at home that they’ve made accessible from the internet. I.e. not open to the public, only so that they can use their own services from anywhere....
I selfhosted my Nextcloud and really enjoyed it for personal use. One of my friends took a look into it and thought that it could be a good thing for his company that employees +200 people and growing… They are currently using Google Workspace but want to ditch it completely in favor of something that they can control...
I have an already configured VPS server in Hetzner. I’m pretty happy with it. I have it configured with yunohost (a Debian “layer” that allows you to easily install services). Now I’m planning to run a NextCloud service, but my current server is not capable to handle it with it’s current capabilities. For the same...
Apparently my internet was out for the last 20 minutes or so, and I’ve been browsing Lemmy, working on a doc in Nextcloud/OnlyOffice, and watching a movie on Jellyfin without even noticing....
I live in a country where wireguard, openvpn and other vpn protocols have been blocked. Tailscale and Cloudflare Tunnels don’t wok either. I do have a public ip and my router supports DMZ and port forwarding. For security concerns I’m not willing to forward ports. Is there any other method to use my VPS to forward traffic to...
Hi! I’m currently running a bunch of docker containers on an old optiplex desktop I got from a local used PC store a year or so ago. Since I’ve been really enjoying this hobby and it’s stuck around, I now want to upgrade my hardware while also downsizing the physical size. I was thinking of getting an Intel NUC but it...
Does anyone know what’s going on with Tailscale on Android TV devices? The official site says it’s available on the Google Play Store, but it is not. I’ve read people have successfully installed it by sideloading it. I’m just not sure how safe that is. Any help would be appreciated!
Hi there, On my router/modem I cannot change the DNS entries, thus just using Adguard/PiHole for DNS blocking ads doesn’t work. Would a seperate Router circumvent this problem? Could I set up Adguard (or PiHole) on a Raspberry and use it as a DNS server for my home network?...
As I’m prepping my self-hosted setup I wanted to know the community’s thoughts on Netbird, the FOSS and completely self hosted alternative to Tailscale. I often hear Tailscale used as a super easy plug and play way to share your home server contents with other people, so how does Netbird fair in comparison? Is it as easy? Is...
