  Naming my devices after stars. Specifically stars in Ursa-Major

  Yeah I saw that. It’s definitely intriguing. For now I’m good with the free tailscale but might look into it. What’s your experience with headscale? It’s mostly a broker right so probably not to Ressource excessive? I have a small public VPS for getting to my selfhosted infrastructure so I might just add in headscale there

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's up, selfhosters? - Sunday thread⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I kinda shied away from tailscale because “I wanted to do it on my own” but I’ve just set up tailscale (while on a train no less) and it was really simple … Guess I’ll run with it for now :D now I’ll just have to set up the send/receive scripts but that’s just some BASHing my head against a wall ;)

  Thanks for the suggestion!

  I love Calibre. I’ve recently broken my E-Reader (Tolino) but all my books are backed up on Calibre so the only loss is the hardware (still sad but not as annoying)

  Still haven’t properly set up my backups … Have my Nextcloud on a zfs (single disk sadly) and want to send it to a server at my parents place (also zfs) but both are behind NAT. While I’ve successfully set up wireguard between the two, but the connection won’t stay up so there’s still a ways to go till I got a happy off-site Backup.

  Not sure how technitium works but just from my selfhosting experience are you sure your not hitting dns-rebinding protection somwhere.

  In short DNS rebinding stops domains from being resolved to private IP ranges so you don’t end up back in your Network when you seem to be resolving a public domain.

  I have to set up any domains that resolve locally in my router (which also does DNS and DHCP) but not sure if that’s necessary with technitium

  Damn! That’s definitely a “I’m old” moment for me. I still remember when I first heard about the concept and I remember setting it up the first time on a self hosted project (which seemed harder back then).

  Awesome project!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are some self hosted services that you think are essential?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Nextcloud.

  I was hosting nextcloud at home for years. Then when I worked in a Datacenter I got to host some servers there from free so I set up a two-node proxmox with nextcloud and some other stuff. Now I don’t work there anymore and I really felt the hole nextcloud left, no more notes syncing for notes, tasks, calendar, podcasts no more place to upload my photos from my phone … So now I’m hosting nextcloud at home again.

  I also host jellyfin which is nice but if I don’t have it doesn’t actively hamper my workflow.

  This. I have been running it the same way for some time now. Even if you change something on one machine and something else on another nextcloud will just happily inform you of the conflict and then you can open both databases and cherry pick. Never had corruption issues.
