- Comment on Do you actually audit open source projects you download? 1 week ago:
Same here.
- on the phone I trust F-droid that they have some basic checks
- I either avoid very small projects or I rifle through the code very fast to see if its calling/pinging something suspicious.

I have spoken
- Comment on My First Homelab 2 weeks ago:
I have recently moved adguard and home assistant to raspberry pi, same reason, though the hass I have moved into docker container with host network in the end. I also installed tailscale directly to have easy setup as an exit node.
- Comment on Simple NAS hardware for home use? 2 weeks ago:
(Alternative below) Buy 5 - 7 years old computer with decent specs (i5 i7, 16 gigs ram, don’t care about hard drives but prefer ones with ssd) for about 60 - 100 bucks. Buy 250 gigz+ ssd (if it’s not included) and any desired number and sizes of nas grade drives (this is where you don’t want to save money). Don’t forget UPS! Install TrueNAS. Profit… Ok not profit but enjoy. For movies definitely jellyfin (keep your distance from plex really). Audiobookshelf for audiobooks but also ebooks! Amazing software that one.
Alt. Buy raspberry pi, two usb hard drives, install open media vault and same apps as above. It’s not as polished as true nas but its cheap and it lets you dip your feet in homelabbing first, in two to three years you will gain experience and vision to do your dream homelab (or at last try 😀) if the pi is not enough.

This video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlcVx-k-02E or this video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=jx6T6lqX-QM That is all you need to know to successfully set it up. They are really good. Good luck! 😊

You are welcome :) And enjoy! Its really fun 😊

I see, I was on that path not long ago, I finally realized I do not need Proxmox and it would create unnecessary complexity for me. In truenas you can install many services (apps), they use docker under the hood, or you can create your own docker app, its much easier to manage. At least for me. I have installed e. g. Jellyfin, audiobookshelf, adguard, home assistant, nginx proxy manager and eveything without a hitch. And by “installed” i mean I found the app in truenas store, hit install and in user friendly form I just assigned a couple of parameters (like storage location). It can even create a dataset for each app for you and you dont have deal with acl and similar. (Although I chpse to handle the datasets myself to have more control over it).

Yes community edition. If I can recommend do it without proxmox, play with it and then you can decide either way. Good luck!

They switched kubernetes for docker in 24.10 so it is quite new. And it works realy well. I didn’t have to tweak one thing, I was impressed.
- Comment on What's up, selfhosters? It's selfhosting Sunday again! 2 weeks ago:
Hi, I finally set up tailscale on my raspbery pi, in exit node mode so I have access to my whole network. I also set AdGuard an the very same pi with dhcp. I finally bought home assistant voice device, didn’t arrive yet, but cant wait to experiment with it.
I still have to setup Authelia for sso, I want to setup a device on my network as a (proton) vpn gateway (zero knowledge right now) and then I want to start learning about pfsense to properly segment my network (into subnets) and have more control.

I have been using open media vault for years, I switched quite recently to trueNAS and I don’t agree with your statement, trueNAS was easier to setup, with encryption, and is easier to maintain. Installing docker compose apps was a learning on omv, but is so simple on trueNAS for there is plenty of apps out of the box (in the store). And yeah, TrueNAS scale doesn’t use kubernetes, it uses docker now.
- Comment on UPS input load 2 weeks ago:
Good question, how do I access the UPS logs? In TrueNAS (and in home assistant) I just see the measured values.
- Comment on UPS input load 2 weeks ago:
Ahaa, so what you are saying that me seeing the input load on UPS is not the cause of the measured power consumption but just a “symptom”. That something (be it TrueNAS/rpi/switch) really draws more. How can I do a thorough analysis of what the devices do? Normally I check logs and htop and see they are just chilling. I check cpu, i/o and network and I thought that it should be pretty good indicator of if something is happening. Especially when its 6 Watts more thats like whole another rpi 😀
- Comment on UPS input load 2 weeks ago:
Same as above. The TP link that measure the power is plugged into the UPS not the other way around. The UPS is directly in the wall plug. So even if the UPS drawn 100 Watts it shouldn’t show on the TP Link.
- Comment on UPS input load 2 weeks ago:
But the TP link that measure the power is plugged into the UPS not the other way around. The UPS is directly in the wall plug.
- Comment on UPS input load 3 weeks ago:
Truly nothing. I haven’t set snapshots yet, I have TrueCloud backup but thats at midnignt. I have checked htop and there is virtually zero activity (same as when the power draw is 29 W). I have only two apps on truenas and they also didn’t do any indexing or anything). As mentioned above the only difference that I spotted so far is the ups input load and the times of event start/end match perfectly in all cases.

- Comment on 3-2-1 Backups: How do you do the 1 offsite backup? 3 weeks ago:
If you are gonna go for TrueNAS, try Storj with TrueNAS Cloud task. TrueNAS made a partnership with Storj and the price is very good. www.truenas.com/truecloud-backup/
TlDr; The data is encrypted with restic and sent to Storj S3 storage that is further fragmenting it (and encrypting it too - so double encryption) into multiple pieces (with redundancy) and storing on other peoples TrueNASes (you can also provide your unused space btw and gain some small money back).
I am in process of setting this up (already run a working test backup) and I didn’t find anything that’s better than this integrated solution. Very cool!
- Comment on What are some cool projects that I can do with a 1st gen Raspberry Pi? 3 weeks ago:
I am in the same situation, looking how to use my 1st pi. I am already using AdGuard, Nginx and home assistant on my pi4, so I am looking for something more niche but very cool 😀
- Comment on Using DVD slot for second 3.5" drive? 3 weeks ago:
I did just that. I also put ssd to a flopy disk bay and I screwed one drive on the outside of the case 😀 works like a charm.
