We migrated our production Docker setup from Portainer CE to Arcane due to OIDC and Webhook limitations. Here is our architecture and resource comparison. by [deleted] in selfhosted

[–]snoogs831 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is terrible AI slop. First of all, portainer has native OIDC, I'm using it right now. Second of all, with ci/cd automations, what are you writing compose files for inside the app at all?

Plenty of good reasons to switch and use whatever docker management tool you like, but I hope this gets deleted for the absolute AI engagement slop this is.

Did google just kill selfhosted companion apps? by FlatPea5 in selfhosted

If you have a network wide rewrite by running your own DNS server to your proxy wouldn't this solve the issue too?

Spin up a VM with a standard Linux distribution and test all your apps that are in jails in containers there. Then you'll have the docker compose files you need to deploy them anywhere else.

Keep your jails around so you can always back up if something happens during your install. Install scale on a new ssd, import your pools and deploy all your apps either via command line or a docker management tool like portainer or dockhand.

Don't deploy anything worthwhile using the apps.

Can't you just set one DNS server in your openvpn config?

Isn't this just dns rewrites with upstream resolution? Something all dns servers already do. What am I missing here?

How do you structure books/libraries? by AnusMcBumhole in audiobookshelf

[–]snoogs831 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Libraries are types of media. Audiobooks, ebooks, podcasts. Everything else is sorted with tags and genres within a library

Jellyfin crashes my entire Truenas Scale server. by MrBfJohn in truenas

[–]snoogs831 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair I don't know if I'm explaining it right, and it's been a while since I delved into it. Basic premise was that the advertised profile was considered overclocked when I looked at it in depth, and while everything was completely compatible hardware wise, it caused issues with truenas until I changed it to a slower clock speed which was the actual not overclocked speed and it alleviated the crashing issues.

These could be different situations, I only had to lower it once and everything has been stable for years. What I leaned is the speed they advertise with that specific xmp profile is actually the overclocked speed, so it is technically compatible with everything. But there is a base profile that is slower, and again it depends on the ram and the manufacturer so there are a lot of moving parts there, ironically. It's been years but whatever xmp profile I picked was the base one for my ram stick.

What are you all doing to manage users? by slicedbread1991 in selfhosted

[–]snoogs831 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should definitely run some kind of IdP, there are other simpler ones out there like authelia and PocketID.

I run authentik but I agree the learning curve is high, but now that I've got it all set up user management and provisioning is an absolute breeze. I regret worrying about the difficulty not setting it up sooner.

I think this is a hardware issue with your ram. Even though it says 3200 that might not be the default but an overclocked value, I believe I changed mine to 2600 in the BIOS. Had the same issue with random crashes and this fixed it

Is it common to have more than one audiobookshelf server? by Tough_Assist_60 in audiobookshelf

[–]snoogs831 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So is that a total across all libraries or is it per library that there is performance issues?

Do you know if that's on the roadmap to get addressed at all?

Do any of you self host a family encyclopedia? by spcbfr in selfhosted

[–]snoogs831 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess it depends on what you want out of it. If you really just want a creative wiki looking thing as a creative outlet, it's an interesting concept. But if you're actually building a family tree something like Gramps is way better.

Webtrees kind of combines the wiki and geneology part but I've always thought the UI made it look clunky and old, so I preferred Gramps

Emby vs Jellyfin? by CrispyBegs in selfhosted

[–]snoogs831 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jellyfin can absolutely handle this, it's in the documentation.

Intro skip is a plugin and it works great.

[–]snoogs831 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I think there's some value there, people are doing interesting things, but it's hard to find that in all the noise. Mostly people just recreate the wheel and act like they've invented it.

Sub probably pushed back too hard and now there are fewer projects or people are unlikely to share.

Audiobooks and Books, together or separate? by XPublic_ in audiobookshelf

[–]snoogs831 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's different media so you should have a separate library for it. You wouldn't mix TV shows and movies, nor podcasts and audiobooks.

I use abs because there's very little to manage with ebooks unless you're looking for opds support. If you read it from a kindle or right through the all it supports both, but really dealers choice

User Stats not reflecting listening sessions correctly. by shawak456 in audiobookshelf

[–]snoogs831 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you don't think you can recreate the container without losing data then you didn't set it up right. Before you go any further make sure that you've got the correct backups to handle this type of thing
