- Comment on What's your thoughts on the new netbird UI? 11 months ago:
I like it, it was released a couple of days ago so something might require a bit more polishing but overall it looks better to me.
- Comment on Best VPS for gramps 1 year ago:
I have heard of several cloud screw-ups as well, leading to charges of several thousands.
On one side this can happen if you experiment something outside of the free machine(s), on the other side you have all the reporting and notification tools to avoid surprises.
Nonetheless, I still see your point, reason why I prefer to use an almost dry revolut prepaid for all the cloud accounts instead of my main credit card.
- Comment on Best VPS for gramps 1 year ago:
As you wish, indeed the only free offer without credit cards is the one of azure for students. In any case you are not anonymous.
- Comment on Best VPS for gramps 1 year ago:
Considering the small audience and purpose, I would not have any problem using the always free offerings of either Oracle or Google (the latter especially if located in the US).
- Comment on Oracle keeps changing the idle requirements for compute instances 1 year ago:
I don’t know, wouldn’t the Hypervisor be able to track resources usage by itself without anything else?
- Comment on Use an old android phone to selfhost ? 1 year ago:
If postmarket os works on that device maybe you can go full Linux (alpine), there will be no systemd which might be a problem and I am not even sure about docker compatibility. You can look it up though.
- Comment on Another good reason not to open port 22 1 year ago:
Hi, to check attacks you should look at the logs. In this case auth.log. Being attacked on port 22 is not surprising neither really troublesome if you connect via key pair.
My graph was showing egress traffic, on any kind of server the traffic due to these attacks would have been invisible but on a backup server which has (hopefully) only ingress you can clearly see the volume of connections from attackers from bytes teansmitted
- Comment on that self hosted itch.... 1 year ago:
I disagree, you’ll have your backups, so even if everything breaks you will have a failsafe. If you get compromised it’s still not an issue: Everything server side is encrypted, the safety is in the clients and your master password length.
So, I see no particular differences with other services. Considering I hear of some issues with bitwarden servers that are constantly under attack, selfhosting could even increase the availability.

Sorry, it’s the built-in console of Google Cloud. But there are so many monitoring solution around that you can probably find one of your liking. Look on awesome-selfhosted for “monitoring”

- Comment on Got it running, now how do I back it up? 1 year ago:
In all the cases for me is sufficient to backup the folder which host the volume for persistent data of each container. I typically do not care to stop and reload containers but nothing prevents you to do so in the backup script. Indeed if a database is concerned the best way is to create a dump and backup that one file. Considering tools, Borg and restic are both great. I am moving progressively from Borg to restic+rclone to exploit free cloud services.
- Comment on It's always DNS, should I complain? 1 year ago:
So it seems. Do you think this was from the detected user activity? A colleague reported it was using it and it stopped working from one second to the next. Maybe some of his traffic looked suspicious? I am opening a ticket in any case today.
