selfhosted

I need some advice on what hardware to buy for my home setup. I see a lot of posts talking about software, but not so much hardware. I would love to have a box I can buy and start setting up stuff....

I currently have a jellyfin server on a rpi4 running raspbian (I think). I’m planning to migrate that to a Dell Wyse mini pc before I go on a month long trip. I would like to be able to ssh into it from outside my home and add movies and stuff. I have already setup ddns for the jellyfin server, so I only need for a way to add...

Lot of sales for 4th of july (and ongoing ones) where you can pay $10-$14 for a YEAR of a small cheap VPS. Usually only has 1GB of memory, but that’s plenty to play around with and learn. If nothing else, a good cheap ipv4 you can use for some port forwarding. There are lots of options, but I’ve used racknerd and...

Hello!...

Not something that would have to be on all the time, but more something that can be off overnight. This question feels like it has an obvious yes/no answer that I’m missing....

This is corny, but thanks for being awesome! It feels so nice to see this community grow out of a shared vision of what the internet should be....

Hi, I run a few game servers but I kind of need to back them up while they are running, is there something suitable.

Hey guys, I recently bought an orange pi zero 2 and, as the title suggests, I want to put an ad blocker on it. Those are the options. I also will put openvpn for external connection to my network. Does anyone have experience with them? What would you suggest?

I’ve been considering the idea of hosting my own instance of Lemmy, solely for my own use, maybe with 1 or 2 family members using it as well. I’ve seen several discussions regarding the requirements for system resources, but not much regarding bandwidth. I have an abundance of processing power, memory, and storage space in...

I am running a ODroid HC4 as a media server with Jellyfin and Navidrome....

I feel like this is at least tangentially connected to self hosting, so I’m asking here. I’m interested in finding a cloud provider to host my own Lemmy server (similar to what Masto.host does with Mastodon). I’ve been looking around for all the different options available, and I haven’t found many. Communick.com and...

Hey everyone! I noticed that the discussions around the recently released self-hosted alternative to Steam and Origin, have been focused on its controversial name. Let’s shift the conversation and talk about the features you would like to see or wouldn’t care about in this software.

There are a lot of reasons not to give them your money. They’re assholes to the maker community and they openly talk shit on a lot of their customer base. That’s beside the point, though, really....

I'm currently planning to build a new server after I discovered what my system uses in Idle. As I have to set up a new system anyways I would like to add a NAS to it to manige my storage. Currently I just have a zfs-Pool in proxmox for my Data-Drives and all VMs/Containers that need access have escalated rights and can directly...

I’m a beginner, and I am looking to self host mostly everything....

I have a home server that I’m using and hosting files on it. I’m worried about it breaking and loosing access to the files. So what method do you use to backup everything?

I was thinking of setting up a home surveilance system using Frigate, and integrating it with Home Assistant. I’d probably have somewhere on the order of 10-15 1080p 30fps cameras. I’m not sure what components I should get for the server, as I am unsure of the actual processing requirements....

As per the title, what are you using? I am testing miniflux + read you on mobile.

Hi, I was having some problems with my NAS....

I bought one of these and now I’m unclear what I should be doing regarding RAID. Can I not add drives later?...

i have just seen that gfycat is shutting down. i love sticking in a GIF, but would love a way to keep and categorise my gifs, and be able to embed/copy them into my banter....

Specially to code on mobile....

What I currently have...
