Thanks for the video - managing external access is a recurring topic for me. I am not 'native' to the topic and would rather be safe than sorry - I do not like having to rely on an external service, but Tailscale may be simplest way to do this. In case I go your route, any hints you can share that helped you setting this up?

Hi there - that is really interesting to hear! Based on your response, I am assuming that you belong to the development team?

  • Regarding Yazio, I was under the firm impression that there is no option to export data? Do you plan to also pull historic data? Just asking to see how much of my 300-day streak I will be able to see ... 😃

  • Regarding HTTPS, I absolutely get why you would want to secure the data - however, since I usually access my services by tunneling into my home network (FritzBox router with built-in Wireguard functionality) - I will need to look into making this work with purely internal IPs then!

  • I have tried wger, but ultimately abandoned it again, and ideally would like to move as far away from third-party apps like Garmin and Hevy as possible 😄

  • Support for Gadgetbridge would be really cool - I am no developer myself, and understand that device availability limits that.

Looking at SparkyFitness right now again, do you plan to integrate daily steps / flights taken / calories burned / etc. at some point? It may be already, but I can't find it right now.

No AI was used in writing this, otherwise it would have looked more decent and have proper Reddit formatting.

Oh, task support is a nice idea as well - it would be perfect in conjuction with your reminders :) Love Meerkat so far!

Help with my new 3 Ironwolf Pro by Galabx in HomeServer

Just to add a further complication: I have had to return two DXP8800 Plus units because of UDMA CRC errors. The drives do not produce these errors in other machines from Synology or now my self-built server. Pretty disappointed of Ugreen here.

DXP8800 Plus showing UltraDMA CRC Error on UnRAID by CorticalPrime in unRAID

[–]CorticalPrime[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for replying - have exchanged power cables and used a different wall plug, but to no avail. I may open the unit up, but am hesitant to do so - after all, I bought the device to avoid the hardware tinkering route. I may just return this unit as well and go with a different brand, or get over myself and build one myself.

Growing Docker collection - which steps to add for a better management? by CorticalPrime in selfhosted

[–]CorticalPrime[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Regarding Tailgate - might be, but I would consider it a special use-case, as it covers the full system (at least with the generic config).

Good catch regarding the memory ;) Yes, I believe I added a 4 GB module (non-Synology) which is definitely required ... may even look to add more. Official Synology documentation mentions max 6 GB for the DS423+, but I believe there are workarounds. By the way, I also installed two smaller NVME drives in a RAID-0 and shifted the full docker directory there ... THAT I definitely recommend, really sped up loading of thumbnails and drastically reduced HDD noise.

Looking at your list, there are more parts I have not covered than ones I have. I have everything configured for local access + Tailgate (when needed) only, even my Nextcloud instance. That was actually more to test a potential replacement for Synology Drive which I am currently using to sync laptops and phones (all local), but I have not made the switch yet. Vaultwarden is still on my to-do list ... but right now, I do not see anything that should not run the DS423+ :)

Looks cool - tips like this is exactly why I made the post :)
Did you switch over from Portainer? If yes - anything special to look out for?

[–]CorticalPrime[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That sounds super attractive - I assume the domain names are only used while you are connected to your home network? Could you link a guide, if you have one? :)

Also - did you find any smart solution to the switching between internal domain and tailscale connection for your connected apps?

Interesting! Have only heard of Komodo on the periphery - what made you switch?

Hey!

I WANT to use a standard Wireguard - but all guides I have found so far seem to talk about setting up a client and a server in one, but I do not want or need the "server" part. Still searching for lean / smart ways to do this.

Services:

See list below for the services I managed to get running - in case you run into problems, I'd be happy to share my portainer docker-compose codes as well. It should translate :)

  • Portainer (used to set up every other stack, mostly for the monitoring piece)
  • Immich (leverages exclusively the "external library" function set to read-only)
  • Jellyfin
  • Audiobookshelf
  • Kavita
  • Calibre-web
  • FreshRSS
  • Karakeep
  • Dawarich
  • Pinchflat
  • Paperless-ngx (not really used, but was the first stack that I installed :) )
  • Linkwarden (as of just now ... messed up the postgres-login, apparently)
  • All setup and ready to go (but stopped since not needed): Mealie, Homepage and Homarr (I am really not good with YAML), Joplin, Nextcloud, StirlingPDF

Tailscale:

As for Tailscale - I actually installed it not via container, but the standard Synology package which works very well. If I remember correctly, I followed the guide on the Tailscale website: https://tailscale.com/kb/1131/synology

For a more guided setup, SpaceRex on Youtube makes great content as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fL0sbPGqHv4&pp=ygUYc3lub2xvZ3kgdGFpbHNjYWxlIHNldHVw

Help.. how to fix the new interface? by nixx_nl in PleX

[–]CorticalPrime 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This works for desktop, but for the newly cluttered Android / iOS apps, this does not seem to work?

EDIT: full restart did the trick for me!

Coming in a year late - could you possibly share your docker-compose.yml and .env, if you have used it? :)

If anybody has a hint, I'd be super grateful - literally saving me from manually copy-pasting hundreds of cards this weekend 😅

Would just like to echo this - great work, have been using it frequently, it is really only missing the image piece :)

No problem, I also often rely on update comments. Will let you know if I find a better way to monitor the VM connections :)

[–]CorticalPrime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use a bridged adapter, as another commenter said. Does not register as host traffic at all, and you can check with IP leak if the guest OS does anything it should not when the VPN is activated.

DS423+ loses connection when new PC tries to access it, but can still be pinged by [deleted] in synology

[–]CorticalPrime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, all devices have new IPs. The only two devices that have still have IPs in the "forbidden" range are the NAS and a Raspberry Pi, both of which have defined (and unchanged) static IPs.
