- Comment on Is it possible to have a usable domain without a VPS or a static IP address? 1 day ago:
It is very much possible to have a dynamic IP and a usable domain.
Both Cloudflare and desec.io (for example) have APIs that you can hit everytime your public IP changes.
I have a script that checks every minute whether my public IP has changed from the last check, and if it has, an API call will be sent.
With a scheme like this, your downtime will be minimal, if ever even noticed.
- Comment on RIP Discord: Self-Hosted Discord Alternatives Tested (TeamSpeak, Stoat, Fluxer, Matrix, & More) 3 days ago:
Probably nothing has really changed. And I am not claiming it to be a Discord killer, as it really only does the voice rooms well.
But I am recommending it if you and your friends just need a voice room or two (as me and my friends do).

I have tried XMPP, Matrix and now I’ve settled on Mumble.
Me and my fellows mostly just need a voice room or a couple to sit in, and Mumble does that best out of these three, in my opinion.
I recommend giving Mumble a try as it is super easy to set up and use. Users don’t need to even create accounts to join servers.
- Comment on How to self-host a Prosody XMPP server on Bazzite with Podman for Movim 3 weeks ago:
I found ejabberd to be more easy to configure than prosody. I just recently tried both, and couldn’t get prosody to work with my certs.
I can give you my podman run files if you’d like!
- Comment on Assign privileged port to caddy running with rootless podman 4 months ago:
Rootless podman caddy doesn’t need those priviliged ports, if you have your server behind a firewall device. You can map your ports on the firewall/router 80:8080 and then on the caddy container 8080:80. This way there is no need for priviliged ports and the traffic seems to go on ports 80 (and 443 the same way).

There is an official image in the main repo, github.com/Kozea/Radicale, ghcr.io/kozea/radicale.
- Comment on Podman Quadlets are so cool 7 months ago:
Yeah I agree.
I moved my stack from podman run to quadlets, but god damn was it frustrating to deal with them. I kept running into weird issues such as: the containers not starting every time on reboot, all containers taking like two minutes to start even without needing to download the image, the unit files not being found by systemd.
I ended up moving back to podman run, because they just worked. It is a shame, to be honest, because I would like to use quadlets.

Yes, it breaks native login, but you can authenticate with Authentik on your phone for example, and use Quick connect to authorize non-browser sessions with it.
