selfhosted

I need some advice on my NAS situation. I’ve got a hand-me-down QNap TS-453BU-RP that’s been working fine for the majority of the time I’ve had it. It’s for 4x2TB spindles and 2xM.2 SSDs. The M.2’s are on a PCI expansion card....

As the title says. I build containers for my platforms/clients/myself-selfhosted@home and you would not believe how much smaller you can get your images. Here’s an example when slimming one of my images:...

hello guys i am wondering what are some must have iso’s for a ventoy drive? and what size ventoy drive would you recomend (i am considering buying a 512gb, 1tb or 2tb tranced 220s nvme)...

I live in a one party area....

I have a number of services I’d like to host, and an old laptop with some of them set up and working on my network....

I’d like to swap my spinning disks with SSD drives. I have the new disks and they’re just larger than the old ones. My configuration is a RAID-5 with 3 disks (and one hot spare). Can I hot swap a single disk (HDD to SSD), wait for the new disk to rebuild, then repeat?...

Hi, I figured out how to get docker containers to join an existing network with putting “networks” into the respective sections of the docker-compose.yml...

All guides to deploy using docker mention typing your keys/credentials/secrets into the docker compose file, or use a .env or similar file, I’m wondering how secure is this and if there’s a better option....

Maybe this is a little bit off-topic. I would like to ask how you manage your dockerfile....

So, I’ve found that there are a lot of ways to backup a server and anything on it, but I’m somewhat at a loss for what to use to backup everything else to that server....

I’m looking to upgrade my Plex and game server. I currently have an i5-4690K with 16 GB DDR3 and it’s struggling a lot. My PSU is a 850W gold rated EVGA from 2017 so I don’t think it needs upgraded quite yet since I’ve been way under the wattage for most of its life....

I don’t know if this is relevant, but it has to connect to the internet using the phone line...

I used to simply use the ‘latest’ version tag, but that occasionally caused problems with breaking changes in major updates....

So, this is a rather odd request of a backup solution, but it’s kinda what I want right now....

Hi there, I've been reading up on selfhosting for a couple of weeks now and I got my feet wet with a couple of things....

I’m not going to network anything. It needs to be flashed or whatever to reset it. Can it be used as a storage device, or maybe an emulator box? I’m clueless over here. Any advice and suggestions would be great. Thanks!

What I currently have...

Do you need a domain name if you are hosting a Lemmy instance, or will it work fine with just an ip-address + port (e.g. @:)?

This is a slow learning process for me and some of you already helped me a lot to figure out reverse proxies in general. However, I’m not there yet … so:...

Since Google is getting rid of my unlimited Gdrive and my home internet options are all capped at 20 megabits up, I have resorted to colocating my 125 terabyte Plex server currently sitting in my basement. Right now it is in a Fractal Define 7 XL, but I have order a Supermicro 826 2U chassis to swap everything over to....

Hi, so I launched my very own instance. I’m posting from here, and hopefully this post makes it there. I subscribed to a few coms, but I’m getting outdated posts and the votes don’t line up, also the comments do not all load. So I’m able to federate, but for some reason only some of the data is coming over to my...

I’m thinking of picking up some parts or using an old laptop to host a few services, passbolt being one of them. I’ve seen that it requires an SMTP server though. Is this actually required? And would I be able to use this without getting a domain name?
