selfhost

hi i would like to build a media/download/nass that more expandible drive wise (needs to be able to stream media(jellyfin /use docker containers and have 3 a4 sata ports)...

I know it’s a rude question, but it’s been on my mind… I’m wondering roughly what I should be expecting to outlay when I finish my set-up? So I’m assuming it includes things like domain names, hosting for backups, email providers, VPN, etc. What’s a good budget to set?

This morning I was going through my usual routine of doing a docker pull and I saw that Paperless had an update. Upon checking the Github, I noticed that my version was a lot older than what’s currently available. After a bit of digging, I realised that Linux Server deprecated their repository. Cool, no worries, let me switch...

My journey with docker started with a bunch of ill fated attempts to get an OpenVPN/qBittorrent container running. The thing ended up being broken and never worked right, and it put me off of VPN integration for another year or so....

I’m looking into hosting one of these for the first time. From my limited research, XMPP seems to win in every way, which makes me think I must be missing something. Matrix is almost always mentioned as the de-facto standard, but I rarely saw arguments why it is better than XMPP?...

A few years ago I turned a pine64 rock64 SBC into a kodi box, and saw immediate performance improvement over the stock Roku chip on my TCL TV when streaming from SMB. As always “better” becomes… ehhhhh I want more. I want to stick with an SBC because of power consumption on a box that I’m going to leave running 24/7. So...

More or less title....

Preferably a docker image, but given the instructions, I could build an image....

I was thinking maybe about trying a Proxmox cluster across 6 nodes, and using containers for the Jellyfin media streaming stack here: https://lemmy.ml/pictrs/image/04695c03-9a93-4212-befc-15c418df8eb0.png...

I’m dangerously close to running out of space for my VMs on local-lvm, but noticed I have a lot of free space in my local storage where I only have a dozen ISOs stored....

Hi all, I am in the process of setting up authentik and had the thought of setting up an intranet email for it....

I’ve been wanting to set up a small game server on my home network for myself and a few friends lately. Nothing I haven’t done before - except the part where I open it up to the internet for people outside of my home network to play on....

I want to mirror my YouTube channel somewhere. Im looking for something like PeerTube but only for a single channel. Does that exist?

Hello, i have a printer and scanner connected to a rpi 3b+ so everyone (at home) can access them through wifi....

I have a VPS server in the cloud that I use for wireguard. I got the idea to also use it to host a shared folder across my devices: Linux laptop and Android phone....

Does anyone who’s more on the pulse of stuff than I know if I should stick with Gitea or jump to Forgejo while I can?...

Hi, I’m running the Nextcloud snap on my dad’s 12 year old laptop (hp elitebook 8470w) but it has some performance issues. It fails to load for half a minute pretty often....

What are some things I can try and will benefit me while I have this 1 yr free trial?...

So, I’m trying to set up a self-hosted mastodon instance, and of course this requires an email service. Self hosting one is not an option, because of anti-spam stuff, or so everyone says. The recommendations are to use services like mailgun or postmark, but there’s one thing I don’t really understand:...

What are the most promising projects/services aiming at making self hosting easier for everyone?

Good morning y’all, so I have a server pc that I’ve been slowly adding bits and pieces to for about a year now. It started off as a barebones board with a nvme on it, and has slowly developed into a Plex box and game server host box....

Looking to build my first server out, trying to figure out if there is a “better” platform for my needs. Right now I’m just planning a mix of machines and containers in Proxmox for running a NAS and Plex server, router of some sort (also, any preferences on wireless access points?), a pihole if that’s not just as easily...
