Selfhosted

Finished setting up an email server and am now looking into a matrix nextcloud bridge. Doesn't seem to exist, so I guess I'm writing one.

I just setup a local llm with open webui and lm studio using qwen 2.5 coder 7b as the model, gonna test it this week.

Working on testing stalwart... And will need to organize and document properly my various nft rules and routing tables, because its slightly getting out of hand...

Set up pi-hole on my network and I’m realizing it clashes with my VPN on my desktop and private relay on my Apple devices lol. Progress everywhere else though?

So I recently sandboxed a webapp I am getting ready to launch.

Basically Unifi switch > Vlan port > Server > Hosting Webapp instances, worker instance, cloudflared and DBs.

Pretty chuffed at the docker config actually. Just configuring my WAF and tunnel settings with Cloudflare to reduce the scanning from VPS providers. Anyone have a solution or will I need to configure some sort of nginx instance to do it as Cloudflare only allows a certain length for each WAF rule for free.

Side thought, does anyone know of a tutorial for CICD to auto build my containers and deploy? I've been reading github and codeberg docs and playing around to no avail. I'm temped to just write a go script to handle it on my server.

I'm running Nextcloud and PaperlessNXG on my servers. Over the last few months I tested out my remote management. Now that I'm back home, I've been making a few adjustments based on my learnings. Firstly, Wireguard is slower than a turtle, while Tailscale has been a little bit faster. I'm guessing this is due to my upload speed and switching to fiber may fix this.

I'd also like to add TubeArchivist back in since there's some great videos that I don't trust Google to preserve given the direction things are going.

The folks on the "privacy" Lemmy gave me some good tips on app replacements and after making a big spreadsheet with all my apps, their licenses, etc., I cut down my remaining proprietary apps by at least 50% and I only have a few proprietary essentials that still depend on Google Play. I've been meaning to do this for a long time and I almost have a path towards completely removing all Google, Amazon, and Microsoft products from my life.

Next, I'd like to set up Wander to eventually get rid of Garmin/Strava but I haven't been able to figure it out and I'm still locked in to some degree because of my hardware (Garmin watch). The Ring doorbell has to be the next thing to go, but I'm exhausted and haven't had the motivation to start a new project until the dust settles from the last one.

I bought a coral tpu and setup frigate. I've been tweaking the alerts and motions. Moving home assistant notifications from reolink to frigate. Was thinking of singing up for frigate+ for additional animal objects. Has anyone signed up for frigate+? Is it worth it?

Still haven't properly set up my backups ... Have my Nextcloud on a zfs (single disk sadly) and want to send it to a server at my parents place (also zfs) but both are behind NAT. While I've successfully set up wireguard between the two, but the connection won't stay up so there's still a ways to go till I got a happy off-site Backup.

Tried to setup custom domains using Nginx Proxy Manager and Let's Encrypt DNS-01 challenges so I wouldn't have to open any ports and it worked!... except not really?

Proxy Manager shows everything was successful but the domains don't go anywhere. It seems to be because the TP-Link router from my ISP does DNS Rebinding protection... with no option to turn it off apparently... why......

So now I don't know where to go. I'm not really fancying hosting DNS myself but if I can't fix this any other way then I guess I'll do it. Or maybe I should ditch the ISP TP-Link and get something I could flash OpenWRT on?
