Thanks for the write-up! I’ve settled on Immich but it’s always interesting to hear about other peoples perspectives.

They’re saying that the proposed gender change (in the docs) will most likely not be accepted. That’s still bullshit, but to insinuate transphobia based on this comment alone goes too far IMHO.

Oh hey, it’s me!

I use Wasabi S3, but only for my most critical data. For full backups including large media I setup a offsite NAS.

Regarding tooling I’m really happy with Restic (coming from Borg).

I’m currently having a good experience with MikroTik. I think their products provide a good combination of features and pricing. There are a “CRS317-1G-16S+” and a “CSS326-24G-2S+RM” in my rack and I have my eyes on the “CSS610-8P-2S+IN” as a efficient little POE switch.

I haven’t used Ubiquity, so I can’t compare these two brands.

For APs I’m currently using TP Link Omada with a selfhosted Omada Controller and for Routing, DNS, Firewall and stuff I use OPNsense.

“Well hello friends :^)”

If you try to spin up multiple services but get stuck on creating a directory, you’re moving too fast. I think you’ll need to start a bit slower and more structured.

Learn how to do basic tasks in the terminal and a bit about how linux works in general. There is a learning curve, but it will be fun! Then move on to docker and get one service up and running. Go on from there with everything you learned along the way and solve the other problems you’ll encounter - one at a time.

Do you want to build one yourself or are you mainly interested in off-the-shelf solutions? What’s your budget? Do you run your services as containers? Do you need hardware acceleration for streaming with Jellyfin/Plex?

I would like to already have some redundancy, can I use the hard drives as they are or will I have to do something to them besides adding other hard drives?

Why do you want redundancy? To keep your data available or to keep your data safe?

It’s Lena Headey and according to google she’s 1.66m.

Does it have to be by monitoring emails or do you have control over the backup script? I’m using Uptime Kuma to monitor my backups via push monitors. My backup scripts call a webhook to indicate success or failure. If the webhook isn’t called for X hours, the backup is also marked as failed. Works really well.

A great investment! Just a few nights ago my power died three times for a few seconds while my NAS was in a degraded state and resilvering. My UPS saved my ass.

Nice rack btw!

Since you’re already familiar with a debian based distro, switching to the OG debian would be an option.

Yep, I couldn’t run half of the services in my homelab if they weren’t containerized. Running random, complex installation scripts and maintaining multiple services installed side-by-side would be a nightmare.

TIL that a proxmox app exists. Thanks!

You should check out Uptime Kuma which offers different monitor types. This should give you a good start for your own implementations. Or maybe you’ll find that Uptime Kuma already covers your usecase.

I’m not using Authelia myself but I don’t think you’d need to run beta releases to get security patches.

Interesting - I didn’t bother to set the X-Real-IP headers until now and this might speed up my instance too. Thanks!

Then I wondered: what if the program is “smart” and throttles it by itself without any warning to the admin if it thinks that an ip address is sending too many requests?

The word you’re looking for is “Rate Limit(ing)” and according to the documentation you could also disable it completely.

But I guess the cleanest and most secure solution would be to just set the headers on the reverse proxy.

Interesting read! The follow-up about the biggest smallest PNG goes even more in depth about compression and produces a 1x2064 pixel PNG with just 67 bytes.

This patch is a week old, so hopefully you have already updated.

GitLab seems to have glaring security holes quite often. Surely this is in part because of the open source codebase and their bug bounty program, which incentivizes researchers to look for these flaws. I’m still baffled sometimes. I’ve read about a lot of > 9.0 CVEs while maintaining our GitLab instance, there was a 10 only three weeks ago. Thankfully our instance isn’t public.
