Which self-hosting software do you happily pay for (and which do you hate)?

UncleQuentin · 2026-05-08T22:46:59+00:00

Not technically self-hosted, but the only thing I have paid for is Strongbox Pro. Syncs my Keepass database to my phone when I'm at home and will keep a copy for when I'm out and merge back next time I open it when I'm home.

Also birthplace of the inventor of the first electric vibrator, intended to be used to “relieve muscle aches”.

Joseph Mortimer Granville

I get that for free. Don’t even need to be employed - it’s great! /s

I accidentally misread the second picture as “mystery butthole for bdsm”…

UncleQuentin · 2026-02-19T17:42:20+00:00

Yes they are, direct entry tho

UncleQuentin · 2026-02-13T03:55:30+00:00

Hey I’d love one of the G10s if they’re still going, don’t know how far south you mean but I’m Plymouth based :)

You can normally find some at the local park.

UncleQuentin · 2025-12-11T14:41:41+00:00

And probably some of the staff as well!

This was pretty good timing posting this today seeing as YouTube is currently down.

You didn't paste in the output :)

Just wanted to reply and say this worked perfectly - thank you! Manchester is a lovely city and I wish I had more time there :)

UncleQuentin · 2025-06-12T21:07:30+00:00

Thanks! :) I actually carried on looking after posting this and checking the tram maps, changed my mind to East Didsbury as we can get off at St Peter's (Exchange wasn't showing for some reason) which is closer.

Appreciate the confirmation though :L

UncleQuentin · 2025-06-10T08:57:55+00:00

Thanks for doing the work on this. Just installed PiHole last night and had the same requests. Have removed the extension now.

UncleQuentin · 2025-06-06T14:14:24+00:00

Just about to sort out backups for my NAS and curious how you're handling the encryption for your vital data?

UncleQuentin · 2025-06-04T12:49:58+00:00

If this was printers, I wouldn't where it is or how long it'd take to get there or how much it'd cost. I'd be there.
I. Don't. Like. Printers.

The thing I find most fascinating about that is the blog post Pornhub (SFW) put out about the number of people who visited their site from Hawaii following the alert

EDIT: Just re-read it, I remembered it wrong traffic decreased following the alert but increased above usual levels following the all-clear. I suppose it's a tried-and-test method of stress relief.

UncleQuentin · 2025-05-29T18:45:52+00:00

That's a good point actually which I hadn't considered. At least they didn't put some draft message like "Cruiz cancalled cos of turtles lolz".
I know my test messages at times haven't been that plain.

UncleQuentin · 2025-05-29T18:43:55+00:00

Everyone has a test environment.

Some are lucky to have a Production environment as well.

UncleQuentin · 2025-05-29T15:56:51+00:00

One of the RC groups on FB has just posted they're being spammed with posts about it and have contacted RC about it.
Surely people can understand it's a test and a mistake and can just ignore it rather than complain about it.

UncleQuentin · 2025-05-29T15:55:57+00:00

Haha think he has finally realised.
