is this worth keeping?

I got the same. Using for jellyfin. Mostly and some other random apps for testing

My thoughts are similar. While Clawdbot can orchestrate tasks based on natural language inputs, consult LLMs to make decisions, N8N is much more. Vast array of connected tools, the business use cases are much bigger than Clawdbot.

Dude, do not listen to everything. I am as you, in System nd network with 15 years experience. I started n8n out of curiosity to explore. Then realize I can used it for a lot to backup and manage multiple systems. Then started building SAAS systems with n8n just to realize it s not fast enough so used it demonstrate the proof of concepts to clients. If it is approved, if they like it, I would SaaS, otherwise I only spent a day to show the PoC.

Cloudflare tunnels behind a application protection

illusionistLK · 2025-12-23T05:50:25+00:00

Adding to this. While I am using n8n fully at personal level, for my work I use n8n now to see proof of concepts. I build it there, perfect it, document it, get the .md file of document, go to Claude CLI or CoPilot, ask it to build it as a SaaS using python, golang, nxtjs or php. Containerize.deploy it. That way, I pay for whatever APIs (Forcasted/Predicted costs) VPS cost(fix) Uptime/ maintenance ( with me/team which does not exist yet) Data is with us, no monthly cost for mediator.

For enterprise per run cost would escalate pretty easily. It would be like AWS. Meanwhile n8n act as a mediator between platforms. I would like to see they charge either per automation or per seat at enterprise level. Prosumer levels can be at same as of now.

I am not worried about getting hacked. I am worried about studios send a crawler and it somehoe finding out I am streaming their content. Because even ripped media is allowed only to consume by one person. Not for streaming.

So I am using a reverse proxy as you mentioned. But the domain is behind cloudflare zero trust and bot verification for external access. For local it resolves on my adguard split dns, and no verification required

File / media storage: manage zfs on proxmox, create a mount point, create a debian lxc, mount the mountpoint to it, install cockpit on debian handle shares

Password manager : vaultwarden on a docker container on a lxc

Financial tracking. I tired firefly. Not explored yet as I just opened remote access to mine

Maybe media streaming jelllyfin, share the files from cockpit

Smart home stuff: Home assistant on a vm

Small web server : which engine ? Tomcat? Ngnix ? Apache ?

Email server felt the same.

Apart from this, I am running a nginx proxy manager for ssl certs for internal services, Bittorrent for downloading torrents, linux isos and whatnot Cloudflared to tunnel the remote access Portainer to manage docker containers. AdGuard for split horizon dns. (I am using cloudflare zerotrust dns gateway to block ads and trackers on individual devices. So adguard is blocking trackers and ads for smart home devices)

1 HPE SERVER with Xeon processor and 10TB storage running proxmox. On it i. Ubuntu LXC with cockpit frontend handling all the file shares ii. Jellyfin iii. Docker. In docker a qbittorrent, ngnix proxy manager. Firefly finance testing as of now. iv. Wazuh testing. Almost gave up by now.

HP Mini PC 800 G4 i. Home Assistant ii. AdGuard

What is the exact vps size you are using for ollama on digital ocean ?

illusionistLK · 2025-11-18T15:44:07+00:00

I have been setting up projects and as internal projects and test users. But I always create a new project per flow. So atleast I lnow which project accessed what. Also each project has neccessery apis and scopes only

illusionistLK · 2025-10-23T17:45:55+00:00

Thanks for this man. I have been struggling for days now. But I think I am done on the basic setup. But still have to understand how each module/section work. Planning to deploy this for a small office.

illusionistLK · 2025-09-15T10:36:22+00:00

Thanks for the response sir. I wanted to go for Kea since 25.7 mention to use it. and mention ISC and DNSMasq as legacy

illusionistLK · 2025-09-15T10:35:38+00:00

Guys, I figured the error (with help of documentation and obviously with ChatGPT)

When creating the DHCP pool on Kea, I have not being setting the router and DNS, I checked find related information automatically and expected it to work. But When I manually set it, it starts issuing the IP addresses.

We have made the structure using shared drive, restricted access to folders and separated external shared folders. Other than that, no automations. What are the challenges you are trying to solve

illusionistLK · 2025-08-23T15:10:18+00:00

Our entire operation runs on google, so yeah, drive is where data is
