Just reading through the steps there is a lot to get set up and sharing. You may need to consider simplification to on board more people. Looks like it could be put into a Docker container for setup. Did you want a hand with that?
- Comment on How should one access their servers when in China if at all? 3 days ago:
Agree - better safe to not risk it when crossing borders. Even if you don’t have anything incriminating your identity can be stolen and used.
- Comment on How should one access their servers when in China if at all? 4 days ago:
I know both Australia and UK have laws that allow border to take and copy your phones, laptops and storage devices. It’s not unusual.

Pretty sure GOG also remastered them.
- Comment on ChartDB - open-source database diagram visualization tool 2 weeks ago:
Pretty neat. I think its a really nice looking app and helps navigating the database much nicer. I think what is missing for me is some of the power of applications like dbeaver where you can run queries as you go and easily hop between databases.
Also mouse wheel scrolls page not zoom which I think would be better. Definitely will use this next time I build a db in parallel with dbeaver.
- Comment on ChartDB - open-source database diagram visualization tool 3 weeks ago:
I’ll be installing this tonight to give it a go beside dbeaver

Yeah but donations can help make procurement tenders slightly in favour of donors. Or get inside scoop so they have time to be ready.
- Comment on Why do so many people use NGINX? 3 months ago:
I used to use traefik back when it was new and less complex and the 2.0 complexity forced my hand to drop it for my homelab.

Duckduckgo or SearX

How is it “fake Foss” when you can just download and run the code without paywalled features and not spending anything.

- Comment on Importing Google Photos Takeout to Immich 8 months ago:
Immich-go is stupid easy.
Just dump all your takeout zips in the same folder as immich-go and run the import. Lmk if you need help.
It ingest 60+ zips with 100gb of photos
- Comment on Starting from zero 8 months ago:
Honestly, if you want small and cheap get a raspberry pi to play around or rent a VM.
If you care about storage too you can get a Synology NAS which is pretty newbie proof and comes out of the box with different and photo sync along with support for VMs or docker.

Another reason to use Firefox?

I’d use pairdrop over this so I don’t need to install it on all my devices.

Tail scale can be self hosted also. But for example, it took me 5 clicks to set up a tail scale network with 3 devices.
- Comment on After 1.5 years of learning selfhosting, this is where I'm at 9 months ago:
Tail scale is stupid easy to set up and free for first ten devices.

Codeberg is great
- Comment on [deleted] 10 months ago:
- The docker install doesn’t take a long time, if you read the instructions you can download their YAML file and run only one command. But on the GitHub they have instructions for desktop app mode if you don’t want docker.
- It’ll take up more resources outside docker but it’s a small PHP app.
- No it isn’t.
- Have a look at the examples, if you are not familiar with docker you might need to look at the embedded desktop app as you’ll run into this issue with any alternative in docker.

I really wish it were the case. The quest is easily outselling PSVR.

Sony really needs to push the VR thing but they also let Meta get ahead in that game also
