- Comment on What are some self hosted services that you think are essential? 5 days ago:
I used freshrss for quite some time, but the themes always looked a bit “off” for me. Went to miniflux and its awesome in its minimalism.

Briar, for communication during internet blackouts or when there is no connectivity at all.

Will keep an eye on this, looks interesting!

Can vouch for kopia, excellent backup tool.
- Comment on Authy got hacked, and 33 million user phone numbers were stolen 4 months ago:
To be more concrete: security keys can communicate over USB or NFC. Just make sure it supports the protocol you want to use it for.
But there is also passkeys which is both software- and hardware based and is almost equally secure.
- Comment on Anytype Selfhosted 6 months ago:
Out of curiosity, have you tries logseq or silver bullet.md? They both have capabilities to query your notes similar to Notion.
I’ve had this challenge with structuring notes-data for a while, but haven’t found something that suits my workflow yet. I have on my list to experiment with a sqlite solution.
- Comment on Anytype Selfhosted 6 months ago:
I settled on obsidian with the built in sync. The data is as clean as it gets - its very agnostic to the editor as long as it adheres to the markdown standard (plus flavors). I’m aware that I’m creating a dependency on obsidians workflow and plugins, but the cost of switching is very low considering how I use my knowledge base (I could in work case scenario work with my files with standard Unix tools).
You are free to choose whatever tool that works for you, personally I don’t want my notes to be held hostage by a single vendor.
The closest to Anytype is logseq, but silver bullet.md is also awesome. And if you choose another markdown editor, you could use rsync/git/syncthing to synchronize your files.
When it comes to note applications, there is no shortage of them. Just make a informed decision that will serve you well in the long term.
- Comment on Anytype Selfhosted 6 months ago:
I tried anytype during the alpha, but I understood early on that the data is crippled during export, and the self host node is very cumbersome to set up. Also, I had a gut feeling that it could turn into a enshittified product.
For my usecase, I could achieve my note taking needs by other more established, libre and less complex means.
- Comment on Anytype Selfhosted 6 months ago:
You can export your data, but its like exporting your onenote data in PDFs. Your notes will lose the built in functionality and relations.
- Comment on Which RSS aggregator do you use? I cannot seem to find one that works for me. 6 months ago:
I went with freshRSS and was happy to have a SH alternative, but the UI is abhorrent. Even with ReadYou as a 3rd party app the sync of what was read and not was janky. I went with miniflux and couldn’t be happier. The again, my requirements are very basic.
- Comment on Release Miniflux 2.1.3 · miniflux/v2 6 months ago:
I recently made a move from FreshRSS to miniflux, and it has a so much more cohesive UI. And its much snappier.
Highly recommend it.

Matrix, xmpp, IRC or even rocketchat are better alternatives.

Perfect timing since endlesssh isn’t actively developed anymore.
- Comment on Simple authentication for homelab? 8 months ago:
Sorry for the off topic question, but what are the gains / constraints of using an identity / authentication service? Sure, you only are going to need to remember one password/identity. But each webapp must have support for the said protocol, and so does their clients, no? It does seem like a lot of work (and risk exposure) for little gain.
Please enlighten me if I’m wrong!

This looks really slick! I don’t use ansible though, can I still benefit from running it?
- Comment on Appriciation post - envlinks: ultraminimalist homepage / dashboard 9 months ago:
A folder with links in your firefox profile works wonders for a single user case, but if you have other people using your applications (and they change from time to time), then a dashboard like this can be quite useful.

Cool, thanks for this! As a user of Caddy through Docker, I suppose I need to find a way to build a docker image to be able to do this?
Sometimes new simple technologies makes things simple - but only as long as one intends to follow how they are used… 🙃

If you do, please consider supporting webhooks or ntfy. Look forward to test this!
- Comment on Which OS do you use for your homeserver? 9 months ago:
I went with Ubuntu server and was pleasantly surprised when it offered to pull my pubkey off my github profile for ssh. A nice touch that I haven’t seen in other servers flavors of various distros.

Thanks for the offer! I might take you up on that :-) If you have a Matrix handle and hang out in certain rooms, please DM me and I’ll
harassreach out to you there. - Comment on After 1.5 years of learning selfhosting, this is where I'm at 9 months ago:
How do you like crowdsec? I’ve used it on a tiny VPS (2 vcpu / 1 GB RAM) and it hogs my poor machine. I also found it to have a bit of learning curve, compared to fail2ban (which is much simpler, but dosen’t play well with Caddy by default).
Would be happy to see your Caddy / Crowdsec configuration.
- Comment on After 1.5 years of learning selfhosting, this is where I'm at 9 months ago:
I see everyone else have already chimed in on whats so great about Caddy (because it is!), one thing that has been a thorn in my side though is the lack of integration of fail2ban since Caddy has moved on from the old common log format and moved on to more modern log formats. So if you want to use a IPS/IDS, you’ll have to either find a creative hack to make it work with fail2ban or rely on more modern (and resource heavier) solutions such as crowdsec.

This is what I use too, but with a disposable phone number and email.
- Comment on This Week in Self-Hosted (12 January 2024) 10 months ago:
All kinds of stuff. I use it when I need a way to structure my data:
- I use it to keep track of software / libs that are of interest, what they are an alternative to. See example here: ibb.co/ncsdt0W
- I’ve also tried to recreate the functionality of a personal relational management (a la MonicaHQ, or per this post: medium.com/…/my-homegrown-personal-crm-87dffbcf54…) but found it to be an overengineered solution.
- I also used it to interact and store data through my python apps, to avoid dealing with it directly in python.
- You can also use it as a Kanban board
- Also, I’ve been trying to use it as an excel replacement - which is an overengineered solution but you get impeccable dataquality.
Nocodb is a bit wonky, but it is quite easy to work with (front- and backend) and since everything is in the database format you choose - you’re in control of how you want your data.

I’ve been using it for a while without any noticeable problems. What issues did you run into?

- Comment on How often do you back up? 10 months ago:
Like you said, “it depends” 😁
I have a huge datablob that I mirror off-site once monthly. I have a few services that provides things for my family, I take a backup of them nightly (and run a “backup-restoration” scenario every six months). For my desktop, none at all - but I have my most critical data synched / documented so they can be restored to a functional state.
