I have a home server with various services running (all isolated with different user accounts). The server has a small SSD and a big external HDD, but I'd like to make external backups to my cloud account. The cloud service has a proprietary command line application to sync data, so backups would ideally be date separated compressed tar files that it can then sync. An additional complication are PostgreSQL and SQLite databases that can't just be copied without risking breaking the integrity of the files.
How would you do the backups? Do you have some existing app that you could suggest? I'm sure I can whip up some script to do it, but I wouldn't mind if there was something already made.
Dropped some updates to selfh.st/apps this morning - tiles now have visible/clickable tags, URL properties have been added for sharing custom views with others, and I've added a ton of new project icons.
I'm completely open to feedback on future improvements, but probably won't consider adding any more details to the tiles to prevent them from becoming too cluttered.

Any nerds out there know whether it’s possible to find an adapter to replace this tiny drive with something more useful?
I’m pondering this tiny Dell PC as a home server, but it only has USB 2. So I’m wondering whether I could run an adapter cable to a socket outside the case into which I can plug something with a usable capacity.
As far as I can tell it’s a 44 pin IDE DOM, but not much appears to work with it.
Also bei der Installation von #Yunohost hatte ich keinerlei Probleme. Ja: Es muss aktuell Debian 11 als Grundlage installiert sein. Aber das steht auch in der Doku #rtfm 😉
#Tailscale is sorcery. It's amazing how easy it makes serving HTTPS from my machine at home to anywhere in the world, while staying private and secure.
I think I no longer have to continue paying for a VM provider. My server is descending from the cloud, and coming home.
I got this pre-loved computer from a humble store in Cubao, at quite a low price. Cheaper and faster than a new Raspberry Pi 4B, yet it's a full x86 PC and comes with a 120 GB SSD. It's fanless and idles at 3 to 6 watts according to the interwebs, just about the same power consumption as my router, I think.
Dell markets it as a thin client; the store I got it from sells it as a budget PC; tinkerers like me see it as a perfect little #HomeServer. I already have Ubuntu Server running on it.
