Key sharing When an event cannot be decrypted due to missing keys, a client may want to request them from other clients which may have them.
- Comment on Can’t get SSHing shim to work with forgejo for the life of me 3 weeks ago:
If you have forgejo or gitea ssh running on port 222, you need to specify it somewhere. Or else
git
could connect to port 22, which is default for ssh. - Comment on Can’t get SSHing shim to work with forgejo for the life of me 3 weeks ago:
So sshd is running. The first question is: is it running on the port you expect it to run? The main host can have sshd too and maybe you connect to the wrong port? Did you use a
~/.ssh/config
for your forgejo connection? - Comment on Can’t get SSHing shim to work with forgejo for the life of me 3 weeks ago:
It would help if you explain “it does not work” further. It’s a bad desciption of the situation and we cannot look directly at your installation.
- Comment on What is the current state of Matrix? 3 weeks ago:
If users cannot do anything because all encryption keys are lost, then they need to know that and also how to avoid the situation in the future.
I think it’s not a bug. It’s simply no one online who can share a decryption key.
- Comment on What is the current state of Matrix? 3 weeks ago:
This is quite annoying. When will devs learn to tell people to resolve the problem instead of just showing a pointless error messages?
- Comment on What I host myself 4 weeks ago:
Not really. Postfix is very robust against attackers and knows to how to deal with bots by default. It makes sense to also configure SPF, DKIM and DMARC for your own safety.
If you want to stop the attackers from hammering, you can also add fail2ban.
If you want to avoid spam, you can attach a spamfilter to the delivery agent and let Sieve do the rest.
I’ve been running my postfix/dovecot combo using 4 mail domains for over 5 years without any problems. It’s simply fantastic.

At the moment I’m trying out Ampache. It seems to have more features than Gonic.
- Comment on Looking for suggestions: Task scheduler ideally with reminders 1 month ago:
Nothing special. Radicale is fine, too. As far as I see it also supports sharing of CardDAV among multiple users which Baikal does not support.
One thing I needed after I migrated away from Nextcloud is the birthday calendar. There is a script for that on Baikal.
- Comment on Looking for suggestions: Task scheduler ideally with reminders 1 month ago:
Baikal (CalDAV server), DAVx5 for sync, Tasks.org for Android UI, Thunderbird on PC.
- Comment on Introducing UniFi OS Server for MSPs 2 months ago:
I’ve got Unifi Network installed in a container on my home server. I have also an custom-built router, because it is much more powerful than any appliance and does not cost as much.
- Comment on 2 months ago:
Many governments want to decrypt chats. You better learn how to selfhost.
- Comment on introducing copyparty, the FOSS file server 2 months ago:
Just a remark from someone who runs ZFS since the beginning. Many people don’t like the deduplication feature because of its memory footprint.
It’s also nice to have this feature without relying on a certain filesystem.
- Comment on Trying to make a phone proxy 2 months ago:
In that case, just use VPN software like Wireguard. You can reroute everything through your home setup.
- Comment on Calendar app 2 months ago:
Yes, fossify calendar and contacts and DAVx5 for synchronization.
- Comment on What else should I self-host? 2 months ago:
How about installing a downgraded instance solely for migration and then upgrading it?
- Comment on What else should I self-host? 2 months ago:
I selfhost Anysync for Anytype. In this way I can sync my notes with my family.
- Comment on What else should I self-host? 2 months ago:
I’m thinking about moving my Nextcloud calendars and addressbooks to Baikal. Why? Because I like one “tool for one thing” better than “one tool for everything”.
- Comment on Has anyone migrated from a Markdown notes app to another? 3 months ago:
I migrated from Logseq to Anytype. I just took the raw contents from the directories and imported them as markdown in the desktop client.
Since I moved to PARA, everything has been archived. When I need a page from the archive I edit it to make it look better.
- Comment on Safest CalDAV/CardDAV server 3 months ago:
No I didn’t. You should really read the upgrade guide:
You cannot skip major releases.
- Comment on Safest CalDAV/CardDAV server 3 months ago:
So you seriously expect an upgrade from major version 20 or less to major version 31 going well?
It’s like upgrading from Windows 3.1 to Windows 11.
- Comment on Safest CalDAV/CardDAV server 3 months ago:
What’s wrong with following the official upgrade procedure? Don’t complain about missing tables or indices then.
The most important thing is that the software does not break and you can maneuver out of every bad situation. This is important for self-hosting.
I don’t care if it’s PHP. Many good things are written in PHP. I find Python and Ruby much worse for web applications. Not because of the language, but because it’s hard to maneuver out of some situations.
That said I didn’t have many problems with Nextcloud. The only thing I criticize is that it solves too many problems at once.
- Comment on How do you document your Homelab? 4 months ago:
I run Netbox for documentation only. But your approach is what I actually wanted to do, if I just had plenty of time.
- Comment on What are the minimum or recommended requirements for a personal home server? 4 months ago:
My preferences are quite different.
You’ll need a lot of RAM for all the containers, 64 GB is nice. A CPU that saves power when idle is fine. You’ll need at least 16 TB storage (32 TB RAID1). SATA HDD is fine, when you have ZFS and cache using SSDs. Never use USB for drives.
It does not need to be quiet. Just put it in the basement and close the door.
- Comment on Looking for ... inventory management, I guess? 5 months ago:
Yeah, I’ve even seen people making presentation slides in Excel. Why ever use anything else? 😉
- Comment on I don't get the love for Nextcloud - alternative for just files? 5 months ago:
I agree. Nextcloud is not so great. It does too many things. It’s still OK to use it, because it replaces file sharing in the cloud and you can have your own addressbook or contacts without sacrificing privacy in the Google cloud.
Nothing special. It just runs and updates well. It also tells you what you forgot to do.
I thought about using a dedicated addressbook, calendar and file sharing, but I’d need to have some time and at the moment it’s just running without headaches.
- Comment on SMS/MMS backup and sync? 5 months ago:
I just wanted to know what those SMS are about. This year I got 1 SMS from an actual human being. Obviously he forgot that I read emails 1000x more often than messages.
- Comment on SMS/MMS backup and sync? 5 months ago:
I’m a bit curious. I don’t get many SMS. Maybe 10 a year. Mostly 2FA from companies who are too dumb to implement TOTP. And got only 1 MMS in my life.
What do you need SMS/MMS for?
