Pihole, Adguard home or blocky
  • Two instances of AdGuardHome ... though tempted to switch to the new Gravity.

  • 📢 ntfy Web Push / PWA: Request for testing!
  • This is cool! Do PWA push notifications bypass the need for the centralised Apple/Android services?

  • Self hosting matrix is great!
  • Synapse really isn't that bad unless you're joining big rooms. I held off for ages because I thought it was a pig, but I have it running (along with a bunch of other stuff) just fine on a minimal VPS.

  • What are things you would rather host on a VPS as opposed to a local machine?
  • Services that need a lot of storage, I host at home (Gonic, Jellyfin, Audiobook Shelf etc). Services where I care about availability when I'm away from home, I host on a VPS (Vaultwarden, Synapse, Wordpress, DokuWiki etc).

  • Introducing Tempo: A Lightweight Music Client for Subsonic on Android
  • Cool project, thanks for sharing! I wish you were doing iOS, there's still not a great SubSonic client there.

    Out of curiosity, how are you doing the mixes based on a song? Where do you get the list of similar songs from?

  • Wikis feel too static after using Notion
  • Nice find, thanks for sharing. Shame it's Vercel only ...

  • [Question] FTP vs SFTP (SSH)?
  • Personally, I always use rsync for these sorts of jobs. Works over SSH so don't need anything on the server except SSH, if the trasfer gets interrupted it will resume from where it left of. Overhead from SSH is pretty minimal, but if you really want thigns to go as fast as possible, you can setup an rsync server ...

    If you don't want to use rsync, just use SFTP or SCP.

  • Options in backing up persistent docker volumes?
  • Use bind mounts instead of docker volumes. Then you just have normal directories to back up, the same as you would anything else.

    In general, it's not a problem to back up files while the container is running. The exception to this is databases. To have reliable database backups, you need to stop the container (or quiesce/pause the database if it supports it) before backing up the raw database files (including SQLite).

  • Looking for a Markdown-based wiki
  • Oh cool, I thought Raneto was dead.

  • Recommend link bookmarking service
  • I've been using Linkding for about six months and really like it. Simple, lightweight, uses SQLite. There's an official Firefox/Chrome plugin to make bookmarking links easy. And my favourite is the linkding-injector plugin. If you use the injector than everytime you search on Google/DuckDuckGo you get a sidebar which shows search results from Linkding. Surprising how often past me is trying to help out future me!
