I’m trying to better understand hosting a Lemmy Instance. Lurking discussions it seems like some people are hosting from the Cloud or VPS. My understanding is that it’s better to futureproof by running your own home server so that you have the data and the top most control of hardware, software etc. My understanding is that...
I have enough machines on my network that I’ve long wanted to get better monitoring going on, and I finally bit the bullet and I’m trying to push through learning my way around grafana and prometheus/node extension. I have been following this guide: grafana.com/docs/…/docker-compose-linux/ (great, btw!) but after importing...
I gone through a lot of hosting service providers and unfortunetly cannot find a single one that can be used without running nonfree programs, all of them require loading bulky obfuscated JavaScript apps....
Hello selfhosters. I have a Linux VM spun up on my server that I access via Remmina. Would it be ok for me to expose Remmina for external access? It would be behind a reverse proxy as well as Authelia 2FA of course. Is that secure “enough”, just for a VM?
I live in a part of the world where powercuts are pretty frequent. 1 per day is normal. They last between 1 and 8 hours. A day without powercuts feels like a special occasion....
I have a laptop with limited decoding capabilities with regards to royalty free formats, which YouTube tends to use, but I do prefer the quality that I get out of av1/vp9 encoded content on YouTube when using those on my home PC over what I get through h264ify....
I currently have a Raspberry Pi (with DAC) in my room attached to an amp and speakers, with Moode Audio installed on it, and it’s perfect, been using it for many years. I can use plenty of MPD clients, or go through the web gui, and the sound outputs from the Pi itself....
I am completely new to the realm of self hosting. I don’t know a single thing about how I can self host stuff. Regardless, I have the curiousity to learn it by myself but I don’t know where to start. I cannot find any sort of wiki or FAQ articles, nor do I have the ability to ask the forum for every single problem or doubt I...
I need to put some order with the photos I take and I receive with my android phone. Just now I use Nextcloud sync client to upload and Photo/Memories Nextcloud Apps to manage photos....
I would like to back up my nextcloud data using duplicati, but I absolutely can‘t figure out how to give Duplicati access to the Nextcloud volume. Both are running fine in separate Docker containers. I can’t figure out how to properly mount the volume, below is my current compose for duplicati. Do I need to mount the volume...
I use homer as a fancy bookmark manager for my home server. But I hate updating the config file every time I add a new service. Are there any dashboards that allow you to update items with an API/using docker labels like Traefik?
So far my experience with Nextcloud has been that it is a pain in the arse to install, and once it’s installed is slow as anything. Literally couldn’t run it on my pi 3b, now got it up and running pretty nicely on a NUC but it’s still not great. Have caching set up....
