- Comment on Why would i abbandon KeepassDX? 1 day ago:
Why do you want to ditch KeePass? I use it with Syncthing between at least six different devices without an issue.

The other maintainer, nel0x, has also started distributing a non-gplay version. They are arguably more trustworthy.
- Comment on Portainer on Debian or Proxmox? 2 days ago:
Could you tell me more about the non standard implementation? Coz I just use composerize to convert docker run commands to compose (or if I find compose files then hooray!) and pop those into portainer. Seems to work fine.
Portainer is generally fine, but if you decide to migrate away from it, you will basically need to rebuild your whole compose stack setup.
I don’t like that a lot of features seem to be hidden behind a costly subscription, but thems the brakes.
Yeah, that was a big reason I moved away from it myself. They used to be way more flexible, but started really clamping down on free users a few years ago.
As for proxmox… is it lighter weight than Debian?
Proxmox uses Debian as its base OS, and since Proxmox is built to run full VMs, it isn’t really comparable to running Docker containers on bare metal. You can run multiple Docker stacks inside a VM (including Portainer) - I do this with several VMs over 3 physical Proxmox nodes that are all linked together to facilitate minimal downtime and easy migration. Plus with a VM, if you fuck something up inside of it, you don’t have to wipe and reinstall the physical machine’s OS, you can just blow away the VM - or revert to a previous snapshot if that’s set up.
- Comment on Portainer on Debian or Proxmox? 2 days ago:
If you want to run your Docker containers inside a VM, with a feature-full web UI, go with Proxmox. This is what I do; I have multiple VMs full of Docker containers.
Portainer, IMO, is going down the enshittification hole. They chose to use a non-standard implementation of compose files, so you’re stuck using Portainer unless you reconfigure your whole setup.

Home Assistant.
If you want smart devices but not the data collection that goes with it, then Home Assistant is your friend. Just be forewarned that it is a seriously deep rabbit hole.
- Comment on Fun/interesting things to self host? 5 days ago:
My only gripe is that there isn’t a good Android app to go with it. I’d like to receive notifications on my phone, too.
Home Assistant can do notifications for Frigate that are very similar to Ring’s notifications.

- Comment on Keeping .yaml files up to date... 2 weeks ago:
This is the kind of attitude that drives people away from open source.
Yes, people should read the manual, but at some point they will have questions, and there are a lot of project that do not document YAML changes.

Could it be a competitor for that particular product? Hired some foreign entity to hit anything related to their own product?
- Comment on Anyone tried Syncthing Tray on Android? 3 weeks ago:
Syncthing itself is fine. Syncthing-Fork, a completely separate project that wraps Syncthing into a neat app for Android, is what’s going through the repo drama.

I stopped using CF tunnels specifically because of shit like today. They also don’t play nice with some of the configs I want to run.

Ahh. To my knowledge, iRobot units aren’t rootable, and are therefore unsupported by Valetudo.

I had to replace the motherboard with one from a different variant (same robot) that could be rooted. Outside of that - super easy.

Idk, the dev seems… hostile.
I’ve only ever seen a dev become “hostile” when people simply don’t read the documentation and ask the same questions over and over and over again.

If it’s a CRL-200S based robot, the manufacturer will straight up brick it within a few days.

Lidar is fucking awesome. My vacuum will damn near chase me out of wherever it’s cleaning 😂

I bought a robot vacuum, rooted it, and installed Valetudo.
I don’t have to worry about this shit anymore. The vacuum still does the vacuum thing whether or not it’s connected to the internet.

If you can manage to get video out, I’m sure it can be done. These little Allwinner SOCs are pretty decent.
- Comment on Got my robot vacuum running Valetudo the other night... 4 weeks ago:
Yeah, that’s a rough one. Manufacturers really don’t want us mucking about and will release different versions under the same name all to obfuscate that process.
A lot of TVs are like this as well; we have a curved Samsung 55" that lost it’s backlight last year - not only did I need the model and serial numbers, I also needed the specific T-con board revision. A similar thing happened on my former TCL Roku TV several years before. Same deal.
- Comment on Got my robot vacuum running Valetudo the other night... 4 weeks ago:
Worth it IMO. These things get hella filthy inside. I took mine apart to replace its motherboard, and I’m glad I did because it needed a good cleaning.

Responded with the wrong account… I try not to have any crossover between the accounts, but here we are…
Anyway.
Do the newer models require you to connect to wifi?
Probably. I only have the two robots.
Valetudo looks interesting tho.
It’s really quite fascinating. Valetudo is not a 3rd party firmware - it’s a cloud replacement that’s hosted on the robot itself, and also runs a webserver which gives you access to the actual controls and relevant firmware options.

- Comment on Is self-hosting becoming too gatekept by power users? 4 weeks ago:
Self-hosting doesn’t always mean exposing things to the internet. It just means you have a PC capable of running software/services that can be accessed over your network. Whether or not you choose to expose that to the internet is up to you.
