There is a great ecosystem of apps and programs to work with your own music collection. In some instances the functionality is better than even mainstream services, they just do what they say on the tin!

@markpitblado I am #selfhosting #navidrome on my home server running #FreeBSD in a #bastilleBSD jail. It is amazing and makes fun ;). It even works on my mobile phone with the ultrasonic app under android. I am connecting it remotely with #tailscale. Better than Spotify ;)

The registration on the Glitchy.Social Madtodon instance is now possible!

For Self-Hosting Saturday this week I am attempting to vibe-code a comprehensive backup system for my homelab services because I figure the bespoke Python scripts are not sustainable. Claude and I have come up with a Autorestic + Ntfy + Healthchecks.io solution. I don't expect to finish tonight but we'll see how this goes.

Discovered the self-hosted todo app Tududi and I must say that first impression is... not bad, not bad at all.

It's clean, intuitive, has multi-user support and many other neat features.

I liked the idea of a simple capture without tying the "captured thing" as a task but just... here's a thought you had, what would you like to do about it?

Kinda like this Inbox of things you thought of.

Pssst! BoxyConnect comes soon to @BoxyBSD!

BoxyConnect allows you to create a private network / private link between multiple boxes at BoxyBSD. And the best? You can even create this over different locations/countries to provide you more flexibility.

You can simply assign any RFC1918 addresses on your new additional network interface on both sites and communicate in your own private network - even miles away.

This feature is currently in beta and will hopefully be available to everyone (just like all other services of course for free). Enjoy #RUNBSD!

This new feature is powered by @gyptazy!

#HomeLab. The moment of enlightenment.

Every #docker container on the Tailnet member has access to your Tailnet.

For example, Uptime Kuma can send requests to any of your #Tailscale devices. Any service with server-side processing is a potential hole to your #Tailnet when it is public or someone has access there except you.

Be careful. ACL rules is a must in such cases.

Fellow weekend-sysadmin: there is currently a problem with the latest Nextcloud All-in-One master container and docker version 29.

The issue is closed, but the advice given is to either downgrade docker, or use the beta version of the master container, which to me really isn't a solution.

Hi, guys. I broke my Mastodon installation. Next time, I should use a server dedicated solely to Mastodon, lol, because it conflicts with my other apps, lol.

Alright #Yunohost peeps, I need a little help understanding something:

Apparently, it is possible to host two different domains from a single Yunohost server. Now, as far as my tiny brain understands things, each domain should exist on it's own IP address. So how does it work if the Yunohost has a single IP?

People who self-host (anything, not just Mastodon). Are you running services at your house? If so, are you hiding them behind a VPS that tunnels to your home's IP?

CC @neil , because you're the first person I thought of that would be able to answer.

My fedi friends and selfhosters!
I want to put an S3 compatible storage on my NAS, and I've previously asked for input. People said to *not* use minio and look at #Garage, #SeaweedFS or #RustFS . Right now I'd tend towards RustFS.
Are there any more options or anything that speaks strongly against or for one of them?

How, really, louder are ironwolfs 10tb+ compared to we red 6tb?

so, uh, don't upgrade to #docker 29 just yet if you're running #traefik

Dank der Hilfe und Geduld von @sam konnte ich meine #FitTrackee Instanz bei #Uberspace auf v1.0.0 bzw. v1.0.3 aktualisieren 🏃🏽‍➡️🚴🏼

Sehr cool: Es lassen sich jetzt Workouts nach Standort filtern und auf einer Karte anzeigen.

Außerdem sind weitere Sportarten, Sprachen und Features hinzugekommen und diverse Bugs beseitigt.

Vielen Dank an @FitTrackee und alle Beteiligten!

Hey all you selfhosters and homelabbers. When you are in need of a new fancy domain, where du you get it und how much d you roughly pay for it monthly. Are there any tld's which are really cheap? I mean there really seem to be people out there collecting that stuff and i think that must be quite expensive when you collect exessively.

#RukiiNet was down for 26 hours because five cities lost the internet due to cable damage:

#RukiiNet was down for 9 hours 45 minutes today because we installed a new #ElectricCar charger, which cut the power momentarily which apparently killed my UPS. It took me a while to notice.

Just saw notes about #OpenCloud which is apparently a #Nextcloud type thing. Anyone have experience with it? I like Nextcloud, but it's a fucking pain to manage and keep working, especially on shared hosting. I'm steeling myself to abandon my (increasingly broken) shared-hosting NC installation to put it on a home computer, as long as I can convince myself the security of doing that is OK; I've heard that with the all-in-one Docker image it can be.

If OpenCloud is a better user/maintenance experience than Nextcloud, I'd happily give it a shot and maybe switch

Question for those of you who host a LLM by themselfs with Ollama, llama.cpp and use it for example for generating alt texts for images.
What LLM do you recommend? Which one generates a good description for screen reader users with the least amount of computing?

Whats your experience with that? Bonus points for LLM's which perform really good in CPU only situations.
