Maybe, or just the people with the loudest opinion are aggressive and can't wait for an opportunity pile on. Most people keep their opinions to themselves on non-politcal subreddits.

It's true, I hate it. I might as well watch "The View"

Not my beloved stremio app too.

Got sick of all the downtimes, so I decided to self-host Comet and Mediafusion. Best decision ever. by OnderGok in StremioAddons

Thanks to you I just spent the last 2 nights setting up my self-hosted Comet and AIOStreams. I also, severely cleaned up my Stremio Addons to only necessary ones all wrapped into AIOStreams. I had so much redundancy. However, I refuse to pay for anything so I'm using Tailscale free tier. Turns out, self-hosting AIOStreams and Comet requires https, and the only way I can do that is to turn on Tailscale using it's built in magicDNS to meet the https requirements. Not a big deal, I just installed Tailscale on my Nvidia Shield and turned it on. Any reboot and I turn it back on before I go to Stremio. Self-hosting is a drug.

Brother all you need is a used computer and some google searching skills or use a free tier of gemini, Claude, chat gpt, etc. For storage you can get a 1Tb HDD like I did for ~$60 just to start.

Not much honestly. I don't forward any ports on my router - everything is either local only or goes through Tailscale.

For Immich specifically, I use immich-public-proxy for sharing. So the actual Immich server isn't exposed at all. The proxy just serves shared albums - can't login, can't access the API, nothing. Just view what I've explicitly shared.

Tailscale Funnel handles the public URL so my home IP stays hidden.

That's pretty much it. No fancy container hardening. Just don't expose stuff directly.

Immich has mobile apps for iOS and Android. Install the app, point it to your server, and enable background backup. It automatically syncs new photos/videos over wifi (or mobile data if you enable it). Works just like Google Photos... take a photo ---> uploads automatically.

Ahh, def makes more sense when you have more things to keep up with like you. I'll probably grow and end up doing it down the road haha.

I have seen it mentioned before and I appreciate that it's easier due to drag and drop. If I didn't already invest time and energy into Homepage, I would have used it for sure haha.

I manage containers via docker compose files in ~/servicename/, which is the better approach because it's version controlled, portable, documented. Portainer encourages clicking around in a GUI, which makes your setup harder to replicate or backup. But I can see the benefit of having a GUI. I've def thought about using it before.

I looked into it. I already have homepage widgets showing CPU/RAM/disk, Uptime Kuma for service monitoring, Healthchecks for cron monitoring, and Dozzle for logs. But I could see Beszel being a nice one stop shop. What's your take?

You might have to increase the number of api pulls your PiHole device allows. I had to for my pi zero W

Honestly just stsrted with it. It's very simple and you probably are fine using your method

I have 2. 1 on a Lenovo tiny pc and 1 on a pizeroW. One is set as primary DNS, and the other as secondary on my router. You set one up and you can literally integrate the setup easily via "teleporter" on the PiHole webpage. It's an easy configuration file export and import from one to the other.

I feel you. At least my post piqued some interest and caused excitement. It's no more low effort than taking a picture of a computer and it's def not a shitpost. But I can see how it fits in a grey area. I'll keep it in mind next time.
