selfhosted

I am not very experienced with networking and as I build out my services on prem I have come to this community for help and support....

Update: Sorry guys, looks like I just needed to reboot the public server....

v.0.0.6...

It’s time to get some storage for the homelab. I could get a Synology, but I’d quite like to build my own using ZFS....

I’ve heard a lot of people say your swap should be 2x RAM… but do I really need 32GB of swap?

I have Mastodon running on a VPS running Debian 11. Now I would like to add a Lemmy instance on the same server. I tried using the from scratch method from Lemmy documentation, but ran into errors that likely stemmed from minor version incompatibilities of the dependencies. I tried using the Lemmy easy deploy script but it wants...

I keep wanting to use caddy instead of NPM but I just can’t get it to work. I think my use case fairly common (CF DNS and wanting Caddy Security.) but I can’t seem to wrap my head around the existing guides I’ve found....

Hi everyone I’m new to all this so bear with me if I make mistakes. I’m currently running an Unraid server primarily running radarrr/sonarr/Plex etc usually the most it ever has to handle is 4 Plex streams and maybe some ‘downloads’ at the same time. Also will occasionally be used for transcoding using handbrake....

Hey guys, thanks to some of you I was able to set up my lemmy instance. Its working flawlessly. But here comes my new question:...

I have a cheap Fujitsu Futro S920 running a bunch of services here, but I noticed, that for some tasks its rather weak (and old) CPU simply can’t keep up. The lack of SATA is another weak point....

I’ve been browsing LowEndBox and found a good deal with vpshostingservice.co. The problem is that I’ve never heard of them before so I’m wondering if the deal is too good to be true.

I’ve recently been trying to degoogle myself, and in doing so I’m going to need another email. I tried ProtonMail, but apparently only business accounts can use SMTP, even though their features claim SMTP access. I’m plenty fine paying for the service, but going from the $6/month to $12/month just to get notification...

3 days ago I setup fail2ban. Nothing fancy, just reading the logs of my docker containers where it applied....

Hi everyone,...

Every single time I talk to my friends, whom also want an *arr/Plex/VPN/Home Assistant setup like I’ve got, I can see the fear in their eyes when I mention Debian, Docker, and the terminal. It could be a case of “git gud”, but I want to help them out with a setup like this, but with as low friction as possible. Ideally...

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

Not the most conventional application for self-hosting, but thought it might make for a fun weekend project for someone....

Has anyone managed to get Lemmy running using Unraid’s docker configuration?...

Since over 90% percent of the time I’m on a personal device, I would rather have this on by default, and only specifically uncheck if I’m on a public device....

Hi, I’m not really sure how I would search for this online, so I’d appreciate some pointers....

Hey guys, im writing here because i’m really out of options and ideas. I have been trying to set up my lemmy instance in docker put i keep failing at the first step. I have filled every {{}} detail and still getting this error:...
