Hello,

just curious: Is someone running their own peertube instance? If so some questions:

  • How big is your instance and how much views do you have per day?
  • How does the hardware looks like with your current load?
  • Whats your lessons learned?

I have a youtube channel which is not active some some month but i like to restart and uploading my videos also on my own peertube instance. There are very less information about instances in blogs out there to get some information.

The official docu is quite good regarding the requirements but i like to have some opinions from uers.

Thanks.

Hello everyone,

Thought I'd share a tool I've been working on to be able to stream content from Usenet and build an infinite plex library.

It's essentially a webdav server that can mount and stream content from Nzb files. It also exposes a SABnzbd api so it can integrate with radarr and sonarr.

I built it because my tiny VPS was easily running out of storage, but now my library takes no storage at all. Hope you like it!

Key Features

  • 📁 WebDAV Server - Provides a WebDAV server for seamless integration.
  • ☁️ Mount NZB Documents - Mount and browse NZB documents as a virtual file system without downloading.
  • 📽️ Full Streaming and Seeking Abilities - Jump ahead to any point in your video streams.
  • 🗃️ Automatic Unrar - View, stream, and seek content within RAR archives
  • 🧩 SABnzbd-Compatible API - Integrate with Sonarr/Radarr and other tools using a compatible API.

Here's the Github link:

Fully open source, of course

https://github.com/nzbdav-dev/nzbdav

There may still be some rough edges, but I'd say its in a usable state. The biggest features left to implement are:

  • Better real-time UI for the Queue and History
  • Automated repairs for when articles become unavailable long after import from radarr/sonarr

G'day r/selfhosted

I'm one of the core maintainers of Drop, the self-hosted Steam platform. It's our aim to replicate all the features of Steam for a self-hosted and FOSS application.

We just released v0.3.0, which brings a bunch of new improvements. But since most of you will hear about Drop for the first time, here's what it can do:

  • Host your own game library and share it with multiple people (through SSO if you want!). Each user has their own collections of games they can pick from your libraries.
  • Mix and match your libraries through our 'library sources'. We support both our fancy format (with versioning) or a flat structure (without versioning). You can have more than one, and they all merge.
  • Import metadata about your game library through multiple providers (currently GiantBomb, IGDB, and PCGamingWiki).
  • Native Windows, macOS, and Linux desktop clients (both x64 and aarch64)
  • Docker images for both x86 and aarch64

To give it a whirl, check out our docs: https://docs.droposs.org/docs/guides/quickstart

Our other links:

Reddit isn't letting me upload images for some reason, but screenshots are available on our website: https://droposs.org/

TL;DR: Pangolin Clients (nicknamed "Olm") are a CLI-based peer-to-peer or relay VPN solution built on a hub-and-spoke model, using Newt as the hub for secure connectivity without opening ports.

We developed Pangolin clients. They’re a simple way to use Newt as a VPN jump point into your networks. We decided to release a basic version to the community to see if it’s something others find useful. If it is, we’ll continue to refine and expand it! If not, that’s fine too. Our focus remains on making Pangolin the best self-hosted remote access tool available.

So, what are Pangolin Clients? They’re a lightweight, VPN solution built on a hub-and-spoke model. Unlike mesh-based systems like Tailscale or NetBird, your Newt site acts as the hub, and the clients are the spokes. Just like how Newt provides browser based connectivity without opening ports, this provides VPN capabilities without opening ports. Right now, the clients are minimal, CLI-only for macOS, Windows, and Linux. They’re yet not tied to users; instead, you define a client much like you define a site in Pangolin with secret credentials. 

You can grant a client access to one or more sites (enabled with a --accept-clients in Newt) and control which resources it can address or allow it to access everything on the network. Data relays through Gerbil on your VPS, but using --holepunch you can have them attempt NAT hole-punching for direct connections.

Why should I use this instead of Tailscale? 

You probably shouldn't! If Tailscale works for you then use it! It has a much nicer client and is probably just better. If all you are doing is using it to manage your server - maybe give clients a try!

This feature is still in its early stages, but it opens up some interesting use cases: connecting multiple networks (e.g., home, office, or cloud VPCs), using Newt as a jump box for SSH remote management or other remote access, or creating a lightweight VPN alternative for secure connectivity. We’re excited to see how the community uses it and will continue to build on this foundation if it proves valuable. Let us know your thoughts!

You can try clients right now by updating to 1.8.0! Make sure to follow the update guide because you have to update all of the components.

For reasons I'll never understand, GitHub's API provides only 14 days of traffic data. Even with a paid version, I can still only get that rolling two week window so I spun up a cli tool to automatically fetch and store in a sqlite db. One thing lead to another, and before I knew it there was a UI and eventually a web service.

Curious to hear what folks think! Repo here - has a nice little guide for super simple Google App Engine deployment if you want a free place to run it persistently, or you can host it locally as well. Creates shields.io badges with your clone stats, even has a little analytics dashboard! Love any feedback folks have, it's MIT license so feel free to use, abuse and steal as you please.

Hi, fellow selfhosters,

just released the next step on the way to craft a nice tool, you can now block ips directly from the report and have them in your own blocklist until you "release" them, so you have nice control for your own blocklist within). Works with UFW right now, no other firewall is supported, but working on it.

You can also get the # of times an IP was reported on AbuseIPDB when you have an API Key. (optional Feature)

If still interested, have a look at

Many of us here rely on Traefik for our setups. It's a powerful and flexible reverse proxy that has simplified how we manage and expose our services. Whether you are a seasoned homelabber or just starting, you have likely appreciated its dynamic configuration and seamless integration with containerized environments.

However, as our setups grow, so does the volume of traffic and the complexity of our logs. While Traefik's built-in dashboard provides an excellent overview of your routers and services, it doesn't offer a real-time, granular view of the access logs themselves. For many of us, this means resorting to docker logs -f traefik and trying to decipher a stream of text, which can be less than ideal when you're trying to troubleshoot an issue or get a quick pulse on what's happening.

This is where a dedicated lightweight log dashboard can make a world of difference. Today, I want to introduce a tool that i believe it can benefit many us: the Traefik Log Dashboard.

What is the Traefik Log Dashboard?

The Traefik Log Dashboard is a simple yet effective tool that provides a clean, web-based interface for your Traefik access logs. It's designed to do one thing and do it well: give you a real-time, easy-to-read view of your traffic. It consists of a backend that tails your Traefik access log file and a frontend that displays the data in a user-friendly format.

Here's what it offers:

  • Real-time Log Streaming: See requests as they happen, without needing to refresh or tail logs in your terminal.
  • Clear and Organized Interface: The dashboard presents logs in a structured table, making it easy to see key information like status codes, request methods, paths, and response times.
  • Geographical Information: It can display the country of origin for each request, which can be useful for identifying traffic patterns or potential security concerns.
  • Filtering and Searching: You can filter logs by status code, method, or search for specific requests, which is incredibly helpful for debugging.
  • Minimal Resource Footprint: It's a lightweight application that won't bog down your server.

Why is this particularly useful for Pangolin users?

For those of you who have adopted the Pangolin stack, you're already leveraging a setup that combines the Traefik with WireGuard tunnels. Pangolin is a fantastic self-hosted alternative to services like Cloudflare Tunnels.

Given that Pangolin uses Traefik as its reverse proxy, reading logs was a mess. While Pangolin provides excellent authentication and tunneling capabilities, having a dedicated log dashboard can provide an insight into the traffic that's passing through your tunnels. It can help you:

  • Monitor the health of your services: Quickly see if any of your applications are throwing a high number of 5xx errors.
  • Identify unusual traffic patterns: A sudden spike in 404 errors or requests from a specific region can be an early indicator of a problem or a security probe. (
  • Debug access issues: If a user is reporting problems accessing a service, you can easily filter for their IP address and see the full request/response cycle.

How to get started

Integrating the Traefik Log Dashboard into your setup is straightforward, especially if you're already using Docker Compose. Here’s a general overview of the steps involved:

1. Enable JSON Logging in Traefik:

The dashboard's backend requires Traefik's access logs to be in JSON format. This is a simple change to your traefik.yml or your static configuration:

accessLog:
  filePath: "/var/log/traefik/access.log"
  format: json

This tells Traefik to write its access logs to a specific file in a structured format that the dashboard can easily parse.

2. Add the Dashboard Services to your docker-compose.yml**:**

Next, you'll add two new services to your existing docker-compose.yml file: one for the backend and one for the frontend. Here’s a snippet of what that might look like:

  backend:
    image: ghcr.io/hhftechnology/traefik-log-dashboard-backend:1.0.2
    container_name: log-dashboard-backend
    restart: unless-stopped
    volumes:
      - ./config/traefik/logs:/logs:ro
    environment:
      - NODE_ENV=production
      - TRAEFIK_LOG_FILE=/logs/access.log

  frontend:
    image: ghcr.io/hhftechnology/traefik-log-dashboard-frontend:1.0.2
    container_name: log-dashboard-frontend
    restart: unless-stopped
    ports:
      - "3000:80"
    depends_on:
      - backend

A few things to note here:

  • The backend service mounts the directory where your Traefik access logs are stored. It's mounted as read-only (:ro) because the backend only needs to read the logs.
  • The TRAEFIK_LOG_FILE environment variable tells the backend where to find the log file inside the container.
  • The frontend service exposes the dashboard on port 3000 of your host machine.

Once you've added these services, a simple docker compose up -d will bring the dashboard online.

RoadMap- Tie Routes with resources in pangolin to have a better insight. (done v1.0.2)

A note on security:

As with any tool that provides insight into your infrastructure, it's a good practice to secure access to the dashboard. You can easily do this by putting it behind your Traefik instance and adding an authentication middleware, such as Authelia, TinyAuth, or even just basic auth. This is a standard practice, and it's a great way to ensure that only you can see your traffic logs. Use Middleware manager

In conclusion

For both general Traefik users and those who have embraced the Pangolin stack, the Traefik Log Dashboard is a valuable addition to your observability toolkit. It provides a simple, clean, and effective way to visualize your access logs in real-time, making it easier to monitor your services, troubleshoot issues, and gain a better understanding of your traffic.

If you've been looking for a more user-friendly way to keep an eye on your Traefik logs, I highly recommend giving this a try. It's a small change to your setup that can provide a big improvement in your day-to-day operations.

I have a small web server that I would like to host for free (because I wont be making any money off of it, its a coding project for the resume) and I tried hosting on oracle cloud but realized that although they claim we can get 4 OCPU on arm and 24 gb of ram, I tried provisioning a machine but I was constantly met with "no available resources".

This is why I must make the switch to other services that might offer less resources but could offer more reliability. I was wondering whether aws or any other "always free" hosting service might be better in terms of actually provisioning a machine and having it work reliably.

The thing with AWS though, is that I will probably need a dedicated db service because the allotted memory and storage is probably not enough for my spring boot server, so if anyone has experience with always free instances on aws db service as well be sure to let me know!

Context

  • I have a few Google calendars: work, private, and family.
  • Due to the security policy on my work Google account, I can see only "busy" timeslots when I subscribe to it via my personal Google account.
  • If I go on vacation and set "Out of office" in my work calendar, it screws up my personal calendar since it shows just plain "busy" for a day/week/etc. I had to turn off my work account during a vacation, and don't forget to turn it on again after.
  • Sometimes I have a duplicating event in multiply accounts.

Question

Are there any existing solutions to generate a calendar (even read-only is fine) that I can connect to my Google Calendar and it not just merges all events from all the accounts but allows me to set rules for merging and discarding events?

For example, I could have just discarded all "Out of office" events since this is only information for my colleagues. I don't need to see it in my Unified calendar.

Self-hosted, of course. :)

Clarification

  • I don't want to replace Google Calendar. I want to a service that gives me a link like https://mydomain.org/calendar/<random ID>/ics which I can then import into my Google account
  • Just a mobile app and separate WebUI aren't enough because they won't allow me to see my events via my Galaxy Watch, for example. And also will ignore all other integrations that I use via my Google account.

P.S.: Please avoid work-life balance advice. I have my own reason to keep these accounts joined, and I have my own agreements with my manager. Don't worry, I don't work overtime. ;)

P.P.S: Please don't suggest workarounds. I live with a compromise already and I seek for a better and more flexible solution now. :)

TL;DR: Live Version // Repo

Hello everyone! The creator of Moodist here.

Before getting to Haus, I want to thank you all for your tremendous support for Moodist and my other projects, it means the world to me!

Moodist started as a very simple ambient sound player. Over time, it has grown into a suite of productivity tools: from a notepad to a to-do list to a Pomodoro timer. But it has always maintained its focus on ambience, even keeping the other tools tucked away in the menu.

I've always wondered what it would look and feel like if the focus wasn't on ambient sounds. What if it were built from the ground up as an online workstation? That’s why I built Haus. It includes all the tools Moodist has, along with an ambient sound player featuring all of Moodist’s sounds.

You can open and close tools/apps, move and resize them. Everything is stored locally in your browser, nothing ever leaves it. It's designed with simplicity and privacy in mind, very much similar to Moodist.

You can try the live version at haus.mvze.net or check out the source code on the GitHub repo.

You can also self-host it if you’d like.

Please let me know what you think! If you enjoyed it, I'd greatly appreciate your support, especially if you could give it a star on GitHub.

Basically, my honey-do list around the homestead is too large to manage with my usual task manager. So I'd like to also put "job postings" up for my kids to be able to do as well. I'd like to be able to post a small chore into a pool, and let them assign themselves to do it, and then get a reward later. I have a used a million tools like Trello, Omnifocus, etc.... but I don't want to get bogged down by logins... this will be local only. It has to be lightweight and fast enough to use as I'm walking to get the mail and notice some weeds need to be pulled around the rose bushes. Or the chicken food is getting low and needs someone to run out and refill. Being able to snap a pic would be ideal as well.

Obviously not a comprehensive list of requirements here... I'm just thinking out loud and wondering if someone has a system in place already.

I have been a paying customer of UptimeRobot for years. I have been paying $8 a month for about 30-35 monitors and it has worked great to monitor all my home lab services. I also use some other features like notifications and status pages. I got an email yesterday that my legacy plan is being "upgraded" (rather - forced migration) and I would need to pay for their new "Team" plan to have the same level of service, for $34. That's a 425% price increase.

They do have a "Solo" plan that would be $19, but that is actually less capable than my current legacy plan for $8. So I would be paying 237.5% more for worse service.

Now I have no problem paying for a service that is providing value, but these price increases are a bit ridiculous. This is for a homelab, not a company.

Anyway, I am looking at alternatives and here's what I came up with so far. If anyone has additional ideas please share!

Uptime Kuma

  • My main question is how and where to deploy this?
  • Another issue is I want to deploy version 2 (even though it's beta) because it has quite a few more features that I want. Version 1 hasn't been updated in 6 months, so I don't want to have to migrate.
  • Right now my plan is to deploy on a digital ocean droplet for $4 (or maybe $6 depending on memory usage). This would require me to also deploy something like Caddy/Traefik/Nginx + certbot.
  • This seems like the cheapest option that allows me to deploy version 2 beta of Uptime Kuma
  • Other deployment options like pikapods don't currently support version 2.

It's unfortunate I have to leave UptimeRobot, but I'm not going to pay $34 for the same service I've been getting for $8. I probably would have been ok paying even $10-12, but this really just left a bad taste in my mouth. What do you guys think?

If anyone has an easier way to deploy Uptime Kuma without having to manage the underlying infrastructure, I'd be very interested in that. I want to deploy the beta though, which seems to not be available for managed services from what I can tell. Also, if there is a comparable service to Uptime Robot that doesn't charge $34, I'd also be interested in that. Thanks all!

Recently I set up Karakeep to monitor an RSS feed of my reddit saved items, so whenever I save something in reddit, it's imported automatically to Karakeep.

This is a great solution I'd like to implement elsewhere, starting with FreshRSS. I'd like to be able to star something in FreshRSS and have it imported automatically to Karakeep.

My question is, can FreshRSS itself generate an RSS feed of its favorites? Or is there another approach to achieve the same thing?

Hey r/grafana & r/selfhosted !

Since my last post about the Unbound DNS dashboard a while ago, I've been busy expanding the collection with some pretty cool additions. Thought you'd appreciate the updates!

🆕 What's New:

Glancy Dashboard

This one's my personal "Glance" replacement. It's a comprehensive "at-a-glance" or "Home" Dashboard that aggregates content from:

  • Reddit Posts from specified Subreddits
  • Twitch Channels incl. Thumbnail Preview and Top Games
  • YouTube Feeds from selected Channels
  • GitHub Release from chosen Repositories
  • Custom Bookmarks with Icons
  • Calendar
  • Custom Search Engine

Everythings configureable within the Dashboard at the bottom!

Hey everyone! First time poster in this sub so please go easy on me!

I have been self hosting services for a very very long time... my first "Self-hosted" application was SharePoint 2010. I have slowly been extracting myself from Microsoft stuff and have embraced FOSS. To get some of my services out of my network I started searching around and discovered NGINX Proxy Manager; and it has been great so far.

Recently while searching around about reverse proxy info I discovered Traefik and saw that you could just add labels to your docker containers to configure the reverse proxy and I was floored. It's so easy to setup and add containers to the config and I don't have to go through all my nginx entries and try to remember which ones are still active.

I still had to use NPM to get services externally as my traefik instance is on my docker server and serves those containers internally, so any external requests come in to the NPM server and are forwarded to the right internal URL.

Well, as I was perusing the Traefik docs I discovered that you can also use an http api endpoint to get routing config data from and I can neither confirm nor deny that something happened in my pants when I discovered that.

Over the last couple days I searched for solutions that implemented this and met my needs and I couldn't find any.. so I made one. A small service that reads Traefik labels and it's own configuration through labels and makes it available in a Traefik friendly JSON endpoint.

If it might meet your needs then feel free to check it out, I have published it under the Apachee 2.0 license.

I have been very jealous of all the post of people getting free stuff, and it finally happened to me. So my father-in-law is a general contractor. He is working for a company that is moving their corp offices and they have a ton of stuff they are just getting rid of. Yesterday he asked if i wanted anything. I said if they have any towers/servers or hard drives i will gladly take them. He just dropped off 6 12 TB seagate ironwolf drives, a box of 10 PCoIP devices (thin clients), a couple of UPS's, an apple keyboard adn mouse, and some random sticks of ram. Now to check them and see if any are useful. https://imgur.com/a/ALUS2Rr

Ifeel like I know the “big names” (Nextcloud, Vaultwarden, Jellyfin, etc.), but I keep stumbling across smaller, less talked about tools that end up being game changers

Curious what gems the rest of you are running that don’t get as much love as the big projects. (Or more love for big projects -i dont descriminate if it works 😅) Bonus points if it’s lightweight, Docker-friendly, and not just another media app.

What’s on your can’t live without it list that most people maybe haven’t tried?

Ever wanted to run your own virtual office, but without giving your data to the cloud gods?

Say hi to WorkAdventure — a 100% open-source, self-hostable platform where your team walks around a pixel-art map, talks with proximity video, and stumbles into spontaneous coffee chats ☕️

  • 🧱 Stack: Svelte, Node.js, WebRTC, WebSockets, Phaser.js for the 2D map engine
  • 📦 Deployment: Docker / Docker Compose
  • 🚫 No DB: No backend database required
  • 🔓 100% self-hostable and open-source

Use it for:

  • A remote team HQ that doesn’t feel like a spreadsheet
  • Onboarding journeys with map-based progression
  • Hackathons, classrooms, or "let’s pretend we’re in a Game Boy" moments
  • You can embed tools (Miro, Google Docs, etc.), run AI NPCs, and even host up to 5,000 users on one map (we’ve tested it, it’s wild).

💡 Fully self-hostable. Bring your own TURN server or use ours.

I know it didn't work great for a long time but I have a decent library of books/audiobooks right now and was just curious if anyone had found an alternative to Readarr yet?
