Not self-hosted so I doesn’t really answer your question… However, if you’re still a student consider the switch to Zotero.
Things you can self-host though, to make your books available everywhere, is some webdav sever to link your books directly to zotero on access them on every device.
If you’re serious about book reading a study, nothing beats Zotero !
But they do want to spy on your dick pics… That’s the real purpose here ! They don’t care on the war of drugs anyway.
Dickfingerprinting !
Yeah can’t argue against that, never tried NixOS !
Oh yeah sorry ! For the ease of use part I ment the NAS stuff which already comes bundled with all the necessary software to keep things easy but less customizable !
Yeah if you get IT enterprise hardware for free it’s kinda similar to repurposing, sooo that’s a great deal and lucky you !!!
But I would never put 1$ myself into specific server stuff ! Except if one day I want to contribute to the self-hosted/opensource community and host something like newpipe that needs to be publicly available.Then yeah, proper hardware and software stuff is mandatory !
Sorry if my comment came by rude, that wasn’t my purpose !
Yeaaaah !! I 100% agree on that ! However, this is a steep learning curve and sometimes a lot of tweaking/reading !
My pops just want to copy past a crack and execute… Yeah, I know…
Yeah… Never had a specific “server” certified hardware and always repurpose my hold hardware stuff. Never failed me !!
However, there are some functions specific to NAS’ like low power and other stuff people mention but I already forgot.
IMO all this NAS and certified server stuff is good for Enterprise shit and the like… But for homelabbing it’s probably overkill and way to much overpriced for the little gain…
Except maybe for the ease of use and plug and play function? Each one it’s own I guess !
I can’t stand seeing my father struggling with windows…I tried to make him switch, but he has old piracy blood in him and just want Windows things and pirated software, some which do not have any alternatives on Linux.
Also, he’s getting old and he always talks about he don’t want to relearn a whole system. But everytime we see each other and talk about computers he trash talks how bad windows is…
Maybe that’s just something he needs… And boring distros are going to make him depressed? Dunno
Sorry for the story time, but you switching fully to linux made me think of my Dad in hope sometimes he will also take the steps to get out of there 😅!
I’ve found it can be easier to manage what you have installed, since you can just look at that list and go “oh, why do I still have xyz installed, idek what that does anymore”
While it sounds sexy and attractive… Not sure the amount of time needed to configure your NixOS is worthwhile. (Except if you have time to spare and want that learning experience !)
Just put everyhting In your personal notes and you have a similar “feature”?
Yeah maybe, I’m not sure anymore ! Maybe both had some mental break down with some strange political and cultural view 🤷♂️ Long time I haven’t been in the gaming piracy scene… But if you confirm it was Empress rather than FitGirl I will edit my comment !
Edit: After some search on the web you’re right :) I ment Empress. Edited !
This reads like Empresse’s* mental breakdown xD
Ohhhhh ! Sometimes I just need to sh*up !
Thanks for the clarification.
Huh? Yeah it is… It’s a self-signed intermediate CA, signed by a self-signed rootCA.
In my case a miniCA in my lan.
Because they don’t fix a 5 years old bug about LVMs? instead they write a post on how to drop support for it?
Right now you have to do some sketchy bug/workaround to make it work with LVM…
So yeah drop calamares, hello new installer :)
Jellyfin doesn’t accept self-signed certs.
Huh?? My jellyfin.home.lab self-signed certificate would like a word… Just put everything behind a reverse proxy (in a self-hosted community you will sooner or later be confronted to one anyway…) And you get all your services behind self-signed certs. Doesn’t matter if Jellyfin accept or not… It’s encrypted through your reverse proxy !
I don’t get that…
I have self-signed SSL certificate and intermediateCA installed on all my devices and works flawlessly with every application that accept those (on android the manifest.XML has to allow user based certificate which is in most cases).
One exception on Android was the use of MPV which doesn’t do that and never will? However, the web player video type from official application works without issues…
I have navidrome, jellyfin, Ironfox, LibreTube, KoReader, Findroid… All work flawlessly with self-signed certs !
The issue here (as said in the second answer of his linked jellyfin post) is that them needs a reverse proxy that takes care of the SSL handshake and not jellyfin directly. So OP was missing a lot of good information in them’s first post…
That’s great ! Is there any chance we will switch to Agama instead of Calamares? Cause instead of fixing the LVM installation issue they just drop the support…
I though that the recommended swap partition was to double until 16 GB? So at 32GB of ram use 32GB of swap?
Okay, these days the big players are going on a piracy crusade… Nintendo, Sports League, YouTube, Streaming sites, ebooks…
Piracy got bigger these last few years, so they have to do something I guess… Sad days incoming !
Production is my testing lab, but only in my homelab ! I guess I don’t care to perfectly secure my services (really dumb and easy passwords, no 2fa, not hiding plain sight passwords…) because I’m not directly exposing them to the web and accessing them externally via Wireguard ! That’s really bad practice though, but any time soon will probably clean up that mess, but right now I can’t, I have to cook some eggs…
There are 2 things though I actually do have some more complex workflow:
Rather complex incremental automated backup script for my docker container volumes, databases, config files, compose files.
Self-hosted mini-CA to access all my services via a nice .lab domain and get rid of that pesky warning on my devices.
I always do some tests if my backups are working on a VM on my personal desktop computer, because no backup means that all those years of tinkering for nothing… This will bring up some nasty depression…
Edit: If have a rather small homelab, everything on an old laptop, still quite happy with the result and works as expected.
France is such a bizare country… They enforce E2E encryption and at the same time try to break E2E encryption?
:/
