My NUC didn’t cost 75$ when I bought it new back then but can absolutely be found for less now. And it runs 40+ containers as well. I wouldn’t imagine a need for a big rack setup (for me). Potentially a newer NUC someday, but it’s hard to find a good excuse to switch.

on Hairpin dns issue · c/selfhosted · 1 pts · 156d

I don’t think it’s a no go, but since I haven’t figured out DNS over HTTPS for my AGH instance, I don’t want to replace her default DNS to another.

That’s what made me install Adguard Home, just so that I could bypass my hairpin DNS issue. There are still things that don’t work and I haven’t found the time to fix those, but for me at least, Immich works the same inside and outside the house! (My gf uses /e/OS and her DNS overrides Adguard Home which is a shame, but that’s in the list of "doesn’t quite work perfectly")

I changed versions recently to be safe, but the old watchtower was still working when I gave it up. Just because it’s unmaintained doesn’t mean it stops working from one day to the next.

Just as a reference, my NUC with 40+ containers, runs at around 3-4 W, not counting the 2,5" 5400 rpm HDD attached.

I know SQL and I can pull some faraway memories of PHP to create a web interface (or Python, but I’ve only ever used it for data analysis)

But it’s a far cry between using something off the shelf and developing something from scratch, especially when on company time when it’s not supposed to be your job (and you’ll be told to use the shitty existing tools instead of taking the time necessary to create something custom).

As for Excel, sure it’s an option, but there’s also data conflicts and overwritten version and all those pesky things.

I have no VPS but a home server and Uptime Kuma can’t help me if it’s down. So I just set up healthchecks.io + Pushover via a cron job that runs on the server and I can confirm that it works! Tested yesterday after a citywide blackout 😵‍💫

I love the fact that your example of a "small-ish" homelab is way more overpowered than mine. Because my entire 40+ containers homelab runs off of a 13 yo NUC with a 10+ yo HDD and a (new!) SSD plugged into it. I regularly want to replace it by a more recent NUC but… there is not good reason, yet.

I only set up auto-update since the stable release, but I don’t think I’ve ever had an issue since I set it up 2 years ago. Every time I read the release notes they said “go for it”, and… it worked. I guess trauma holds much longer for those who were there early ;)

I used to use Yattee + Piped and it was great, until Piped stopped working on iOS devices (I tried all the fixes I found, none seems to work). And I just switched to Yattee + Invidious but it seems to be limited to 360p for me (whereas Invidious works normally elsewhere). But it’s the first time I hear about Yattee-server. What’s the point of it? What does it add to Yattee + Invidious?
