I'm looking for a solution for archiving and preferably indexing archived documents. I'm thinking like keeping digital copies of utility receipts and expense reports.
I now know of 4 friends who left Optus and got prepaid aldi sims. 3 immediately after the big breach, and one waited out their contracts and has just left recently.
You can opt to keep your number, but I chose to start fresh (given the breach and all) - and it’s my preference because it stops scams dead in their tracks.
You’re really mostly getting scam calls / texts because your number has been on the dark web for years and years. And probably is marked as “answers” or “replies”
Just released another version of the Smederee - your friendly darcs forge. 🤩
Your organisations are now shown on your user settings page and they are more easily edited. Also owners can delete organisations now. Adding administrators to an organisation is still on the todo list though. 😉
Lots to learn from changes in my #selfhosting stack update.
Host: Linode ➡️ solar-powered Mac Mini in basement.
ISP: National ISP ➡️ Regional ISP that doesn't block outgoing ports.
Linux distro: Ubuntu ➡️ Fedora (best support on Apple Silicon)
Backups: Cloud snapshots ➡️ Restic and BackBlaze
Filesystem: ext4 ➡️ btrfs
Server management: Manual ➡️ Ansible + Podman w/Quadlet
DNS: Linode ➡️ ClouDNS
While the new #selfhosting stack at home took more time to setup than cloud-based hosting, the ongoing costs will be cheaper, while I'll have a lot more CPU, memory and disk available for the future.
I’m impressed enough with native (systemd-nspawn) #NixOS containers that I think I’m going to use them for more parts of my home server as a way of providing a tad bit more isolation between services.

keep running into db connection error on debian with #wikijs , does anyone has a working compose.yml file i can reference? (the official one didn't play well...)
Tipi (a Docker-based self-hosting thing) is on HN today. The first comments is 🔥:
"...This sets people up for the worst kind of self-hosting failure: they get all excited about setting up a bunch of potentially really useful applications, invest time and data into them, then get burned really badly when it all comes crashing down in an upgrade or hardware failure..."
From what I've seen this is a real issue in many #selfhosting solutions.
Anyone used Runtipi for handling all their self-hosted software? Particularly on an RPi? Right now I manage software directly from the terminal, both directly installed or in Docker containers. How do you find it?
(I'll also take recs on other monitoring/management software, especially for remotely accessible services)
Me: so yeah, I’ve just been tweaking my Jellyfin media server setup. I put in a couple bigger hard disks for a total of 4 TB, configured the automatic backups, and set up a reverse proxy for remote access.
Them: oh, uh, cool…cool….so what kinda movies do you like to watch?
Overview of Memories Advanced Photo Management Suite that installs inside Nextcloud
https://gadgeteer.co.za/overview-of-memories-advanced-photo-management-suite-that-installs-inside-nextcloud/
Memories is a fast, modern and advanced photo management suite, that installs quickly and easily inside Nextcloud. My video contrasts it with the Photos app that comes with Nextcloud, and highlights some reasons why you may want to use it instead of Photos. This app has face, object, landmark, place, and human action recognition capability through the Recognise app. It’s not that obvious, but albums can be shared, and photos commented on, with other Nextcloud registered users using the underlying Nextcloud file commenting system.
Memories is a great way to collaborate and share photos privately with friends and family, and even to share public links to some of your albums. It can even work on a Raspberry Pi hosted in the home.
It also has apps for iOS and Android, which can optionally auto-upload photos into Memories.
By saving/reading titles and descriptions into the photo’s EXIF headers means that importing or exporting out of Memories is a lot less of a chore with migrating between photo services.

I live in a 1br apt but the bedroom is... Disproportionally sized, so there's a compressed wall to separate it into a tiny shared office. This is the cable that supports all of our traffic! Scary, eh? 👻
I certainly thought so when I was cleaning around it today. One day we'll get to the cloud 🥲
Ich hoste mit #Yunohost meine eigenen Dienste. Darunter z.b. #invidious#searxng und #xmpp. Nun wollte ich gerne mal nachfragen, wie sicher das ganze ist, wenn ich z.b. Die Suchmaschine und auch XMPP öffentlich ins Netz stellen würde; was muss beachtet werden? Oder sollte ich davon ganz absehen?
#NixOS win: I finally figured out how to make a single network interface have a native ip while also bridging a vlan so that I can put virtual machines on a different network.

Nakama is a open-source self-hostable server for games and apps. It has a native Godot integration among a hundred other things. Heroic Labs are making something incredible.
I enjoyed making my own (super basic) user account and auth system for #Liblast, but to get things done, I'm gonna rather learn #Nakama !
