Im waiting for the PoE hat to arrive, then will look to move my Home assistant to a Pi5

This is the docs you need …home-assistant.io/…/critical-notifications/

I might have to have a look into that, could be a great way to get the wife to do things

If you don’t expose to the internet at large, yes you would need a VPN.

I would use Shelly for relays, sonoff for sensors

Yes, I do, it’s too early 😞

Finding Something that "Just Works"

I have tried Home Assistant several times. Each time I try it, I get it installed on a VM under my Proxmox hypervisor and start configuring my devices. I’ll use my most recent try as an example. I have several Wyze WiFi power switches, and two “Smart Life” (Toya internally) combination thermometer/switch devices. The Toya...

If your in the market for WiFi stuff, shelly is my go-to. They have local access, ha integration and even mqtt if thats your bag

I do this, 1 compose file per application. That has all the things that application need, volumes, networks, secrets.

In single docker host land, each application even has its own folder with the compose file and any other artifacts in it.

If you have data else where on your server, you can use the options to volume to direct the mount there

driver: local driver_opts: type: none o: bind device: ‘/your/current/data’

Also reading the compose spec will help

Pro tip, opera’s built in VPN to India will get you YouTube family premium for about £6.

If you can use it of course

On my 40/10 line, it’s got way more bandwidth then the VDSL has

How reliable is it to self host SimpleLogin, AnonAddy (addy), etc?

I have a private @gmail and a business @company.com (also via gmail), which I heavily rely on. Due to a recent data-leak somewhere, I'm now receiving unstoppable spam on my @gmail, and decided to set up a new account on proton and ditch @gmsil in favor of @example.com. I came across SimpleLogin, and thought that I could use...

If your self hosting your outgoing mail, remember to setup DKIM, SFP AND DMARC.

With all that setup, you should be fine

I use Debian for my self host stuff, I did start out with Mandrake and webmin. but after wanting to customise some config, I moved to deb

Added to the description, will remember that for next time

Remember to back that up, and test the back at intervals to make sure they work

proxmox: Do you use a headless Linux OS as a VM or one with a GUI?

Hi. Since yesterday i selfhosted all my stuff with a raspberry pi and two odroids. Everything works ok, but after i read about a few apps that are not supported by the arm-architecture of the SBCs and about the advantages of the backup-solution in proxmox, i bought a little server (6500T/8GB/250GB) to try proxmox....

mhzawadi,
@mhzawadi@lemmy.horwood.cloud avatar

I run Debian on all my vms, they have no GUI installed at all. I manage all of them over SSH

mhzawadi,
@mhzawadi@lemmy.horwood.cloud avatar

I run a vm for each service, a php vm, a mysql vm, etc. But yes you could just have a big vm run everything

I use debian as my OS for docker host, then install docker from them as you get the most up to date version

Would Alpine be an option?
