What bottlenecks are you experiencing on which services exactly?

If DNS is a burden to support you're doing it wrong. I set it up once and haven't touched it since. Everything new that gets added "just works".

Gmail, and add your domain as an alias?

I've looked at a couple of these type things (including Portainer and CosmosOS) and they just add another level of complexity. https://github.com/louislam/dockge looks to be a lot simpler and allows you to use commands that everyone is familiar with.

Seen loads. Tried Googling it? Multiple ways to do this, some sort of hobby/DIY platform (Arduino, ESP, PiZero etc) and a connected display. Just have a browse round SparkFun?

Whilst I have pretty much everything backed up where I can the only things that I have actually got 100% tried and tested recoverable is Hyper Backup (as it encrypts my B2 backup) and within that is my Vaultwarden backup. So even if my lab was destroyed tomorrow I could get to my B2 backup and recover the Vaultwarden backup and stand it up on any machine I could get access to.

I am not very good at the local backup thing but I do also have an unencrypted backup that is run less regularly that I could easily grab the Vaultwarden files from.

In addition to that the vault is accessible locally if it can't communicate with the server anyway.

I use Seafile for this. Switched after getting fed up of fixing Nextcloud every time I updated it.

What are you expecting them to do with your IP?

[–] tech2but1@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

No idea. Depends how much it costs you to host your own server?

Does hosting it yourself cost more or less than €12 per 30 days?

As a newb to docker and as someone who hasn't fully gelled with it this looks perfect. Seems it is doing exactly what I'm trying to do in the command line with the folder structures. Perfect timing as yesterday I completely lost the plot with my docker installation!

I'm going to assume everyone here saying use docker is fully conversant with docker already. As someone who already happily has multiple services hosted on multiple (extremely light) VMs I would say just leave docker alone. I have spend most of today trying to get some containers in docker working (reliably, which is what a lot of people miss). Yes getting docker up and running and containers working is simple, but if it all goes sideways tomorrow what are you going to do? What's your backup plan? IME it's much harder to get a docker stack back up and running using your own data than simply restoring a backup to a VM host. There are a couple of things I want to use that are docker only and there is something to trip you up at every turn. It's another level of complexity you don't need. If you have a working environment now then why would you need to add docker?

The only thing I would say would be to maybe use a different distro for hosting everything on, but overall "if it ain't broke don't fix it".

Simplest option: Switch to Gmail and add your domain as an alias.

Not so simple, but not by a great deal: Switch to Zoho.
