I’ve done a little bit of searching but everything that comes up is about moving vm to vm hosts. I am currently running PiHole and Tailscale on a Pi Zero W 1.1 but it’s hammering the CPU (I assume Tailscale). I also have an always-on Windows Optiplex 3070 that’s running HomeAssistant on a VMWare vm. I found a $65 Optiplex...
I wrote a blog post detailing my homelab setup throughout 2023. It includes the hardware I use, as well as the applications I selfhosted. I also detailed how I automate my home Kubernetes cluster and how I back up my data.
I’m gonna build my first ever server with a old laptop I have. Bought a 240gb ssd to install in it and plan to use manjaro to do it. I’ll add some HDs to it and a total of 4tb, not counting the ssd, I wanna leave that only for the system. I have a jellyfin server kn my desktop and wanna change it to this laptop. Also wanna...
Hi! I have a NUC with 250GB SSD inside. It’s running everything from pihole through arr apps to 3d printing frontend. Since my family is starting to think “hey that’s a good idea can I use it too”, 250GB is starting to be not enough....
I’m wondering if anyone is aware of a tool that could work as an internet connected dementia clock - that is displaying the time, time of day, date, and the ability to update the display remotely with reminders, notes, and messages....
I currently have two computers, one that has a big zfs raidz pool that I currently back everything up to. Right now, on my local computer I use rsnapshot to do snapshot backups via rsync to the remote zfs pool. I know I’m wasting a ton of space because I have snapshotting in the rsync backup, and then the zfs pool is...
Hello fellow selfhosters! I reformatted my USB hard drive from exFAT to XFS because I needed a filesystem that could handle hardlinks. I remounted the hard drive and now jellyfin webUI has a severe stuttering problem on some videos, all of them are MKV but it may be a coincidence. On android (using exoplayer) the same files...
I finally decided that I wanted to be able to externally access some of my Docker containers from outside of my local network. I don’t want to deal with the security hassle of exposing ports on my router, so I decided to go with Tailscale....
Please can someone show off how smart and sexy they are by answering these questions. I don’t mind if you just link me to a video or guide explaining it (like I’m 5?) instead of typing it out - but please don’t just send me stuff that says something like “To forward to ports correctly, simply forward the correct ports -...
Hello fellow selfhosters! I changed my server OS from fedora server to alma linux as I wanted a more stable base with less frequent updates for my docker containers, so I backed everything up and installed almalinux. It all went smoothly, and now all the containers seem to work as before except for nginx proxy manager: on...
At this point, I’ve got a lot of containers already running on my system, all in separate directories in my home directory. They’re each set up with a docker-compose file, and all of the volumes are just directories within those directories....
I’m thinking about moving my PC out to the living room and streaming back to my office when I need to. I’ve used a number of moonlight clients with mixed results....
