Agreed. Debian with docker, flatpak, and/or distrobox is solid

I think I see what you’re saying. My gripe is that if I want a laptop/tablet with a great ARM chip, with long battery life, my options all force me to use one of two operating systems that I’d prefer not to use for ideological reasons. If I’m forced to use one, because I want an ARM device, I might as well use the one that has the best hardware. M5s are right around the corner and the MacBook Airs are really competitive.

If I misinterpreted your question, then no, as far as I’m aware, none of the M series has FULL support. The M1s and M2s are pretty close though.

Let me know when these X elite chips have full Linux compatibility and then I’ll be interested. Until then, I’ll stick with Mac, it has the better hardware.

Paperless-ngx - it allows you to upload important documents like receipts, contracts, etc. and uses OCR so you can search them

I don’t know what the fuck is going on. The client app connects to all 4 servers it needs a connection to. I can create a user on the server and all clients can login using it, I just can’t get notes to sync.

Official docs here

I found this tutorial1 and this tutorial2

Tutorial2 makes this one port change to the official docker compose file but otherwise is seemingly the same as tutorial1:

  notesnook-s3:
    image: minio/minio:RELEASE.2024-07-29T22-14-52Z
    ports:
      - 9009:9000
      - 9090:9090

With that change, and setting the port of the domain to 9090, I can access minio in the browser. But I don’t know if that’s necessary or not. I’m stumped.

Did you by chance self host the sync server using docker compose? Their instructions aren’t great and I was hoping you had some tips.

For anyone else interested, if I figure it out, I’ll post what I did here.

Edit 1: I finally got it all setup but syncing isn’t working so I guess I did something wrong 🙄 . Troubleshooting now

I’ll DM you in a bit but real quick I just wanted to say I thought you improved in this episode. Great work

has some basic monitoring on them.

What monitoring software are you using?

I feel like the other measures you talked about (backups, condom of network traffic, etc) I’m doing ok on. Its really just the monitoring where I’m stuck. There’s so many options

I’ll look into it, thank you

1. check

2. check

3. check

4. I saw someone else recommend crowdsec. I’ll look into it, thanks

if you use one of those 5$/month VPSes, with a VPN tunnel to your backend services, that adds one layer of “if it’s compromised, they’re not in your house”.

I’ve heard this mentioned before but I don’t really understand how this works in practice. If the VPS was compromised, couldn’t they use the VPN to then connect to my home?

will do, thanks

Have also set it up so they get banned on Cloudflare’s side, so before another malicious request ever reaches me.

How did you end up setting that up?

I feel weird about having those apps on the internet and basically being blind to threats. I mean yeah, I’m not a target on anyone’s list and most IPs visiting the site are bots but I would still like to know what’s going on.

I don’t work in tech for a living, this is just a hobby for me so I have limited time to work on this stuff and do research. It’s very possible I fucked something up and don’t know it. I figured if I at least got an alert that said “hey, your immich server db was dumped and sent to <insert IP>”, I could at least turn it off

I’ve been playing around with the voice assistant stuff in homeassistant and it seemingly needs a public url to get all the features. I could be wrong about that though?

I put authentik in front of immich to handle authentication so that I would need need a 2FA code

What monitoring solution do you use? I need to set something up for my own projects but haven’t gotten around to it. Any experience with Nagios?

I hope it’s alright that I add to this a little.

What draws me to podcasts are the topics that are talked about but what gets me to stay is the host(s). I heard in your first episode that you do masonry and landscaping. I’d love to hear more about who you are and how you ended up selfhosting. How did a masonry worker find themselves this deep in tech? Thats super interesting. (Please don’t take that the wrong way, I work in construction yet here I am)

The 3 episodes you have could totally be split up into multiple episodes if you slow down and throughly talk about each topic and how they related to your situation.

You tend to give some hypothetical problems that your listeners might be trying to solve with a few solutions but I want to know what problems you had, how you solved it, and how you might have iterated on that solution and made it better. And in the next episode, what did you tackle next? I want to hear your journey episodically 🙂

Anyway, I’m subscribed. Good luck

Oh, I wasn’t sure what platform you needed. For iOS, yeah I have no idea. For anyone else that comes across this though, Grayjay also has a desktop app now

Grayjay by FUTO has been working well for me

Damn, I didn’t realize they had public logs like that. Thanks for the heads up
