If you have bought audiobooks on audible that you would like to add to your own server, I can recomment Libation or this great docker image of it that comes with vnc so you host it headlessly on your server hub.docker.com/r/ceramicwhite/libation

Self-hosting is a literal addiction. lol
I started with just an invidious instance and now I have my own audiobooks app that I’m also turning into a navidrome client. Did I say jellyfin and pihole, too?

Thank you. But Amazon will never taste a penny of my money. All of my books are downloaded from YouTube in the form of mp3 then converted to m4b.

Pihole, then Jellyfin here.
I now have way too much IT stuff on my room :D

I’m curious, is self-hosting invidious even worth it? Youtube can still see every video you pull through, right, and now it’s linked to a static ip address associated with you?

6€ a month for a VPS with self-hosted VPN :) I run all my self-hosted applications on my laptop but run it all through my VPS

I do it for iPhone and iPad for my wife (and me occasionally when I use an iPad) to watch YouTube since the official app is riddled with ads and a browser isn’t a good experience for her. She’s been loving Yattee.

Hmm, I might look into that for getting YT on Apple TV without having to tolerate All Of The Adverts. Currently I manually download using yt-dlp and put them in a Jellyfin folder.

Ha, yeah, I started on a Raspberry Pi 4 and now have spent over $2k on my server.

Damn. That’s a lot of money. I actually didn’t spend anything on the hardware. I have a friend who gave me a dell optiplex he was about to throw away and a 2 bay Synology NAS with 8TB storage already on it when he upgraded. Been using them for 3 years now. The optiplex now runs Debian server, and the SynNAS is mounted to it as a mass storage for my stuff.

Yeah I started my journey with an old laptop but I found the precariousness of it all too stressful, always in more fear I’m gonna lose my photo library so just stuck with the cloud in the end. Nice knowing it’s there for when I need it

Fully understand that. I still pay google $10 a month for 2TB storage for that reason alone.

It really is 😅
I never thought that I’d want to spend my Saturdays fiddling with servers, but here I am
