MrJameGumb, in AppleTV complete replacement opinions
@MrJameGumb@lemmy.world avatar

I’ve never used an Apple TV, but my smart TV is a Roku and it does most of the things you’ve described. I use Crunchyroll and Tubi and a few other streaming apps including Apple’s. I use Prime Music and it has like 99% of the albums I want to listen to. Obviously it doesn’t have Apple Arcade, but I mostly just play games on my phone anyway. I even put a Roku box on an old CRT TV that I use sometimes for watching older shows in SD format lol! I don’t know if this is the type of answer you were looking for but I hope it’s helpful.

Appreciate your insights on how you use the Roku devices. Understood about gaming, my eyes can’t handle mobile gaming :)

AA5B,

As does my fire stick, and even my Vizio smart TV … all except the Apple Arcade

I’ve bent thinking about moving in the other direction. I try to avoid privacy abuse of the SmartTV and Fire Stick is being enshittified, so what should I use? AppleTV seems interesting to try plus games may be fun

virtueisdead, in Nextcloud Performance Improvements

ive tried to get nextcloud working several times and it just seems to never work for some reason… maybe i should set it up on a pi ive got laying around instead of my main server lol

cybersandwich,

My advice: use the nextcloud snap package. It’s seamless.

virtueisdead,

that is… surprising. not that i don’t believe you, snap just doesn’t have a good track record, lol. ill have to research if it’s feasible to run a snap package on a debian server, though.

4am,

It is, in fact, the only Snap I’ve ever used which worked without issues

That being said, it’s kinda slow in some cases, but perfectly useable nonetheless

cybersandwich,

I know snap isn’t popular among Linux nerds, but I was really having issues with the AIO docker setup and at the time I didn’t have the time to troubleshoot/fight it. I needed to give my family a file drop link to share photos for a memorial service.

I figured, the snap package was recommended on their site, maybe it won’t be horrible. To my surprise it was incredibly easy, has been rock solid, never had performance issues, and it’s always up-to-date.

Snap may suck for some use-cases but this one seems to be right in it’s wheel house.

It also has an export/backup capability built in.

Have you tried the AIO method that’s now the primary supported docker install?

It’s really good, and I’ve set up and used NC in a variety of ways since about version 7.

virtueisdead,

im not sure / cannot recall. it’s been a few months since i last tried to install it and it kept erroring out. im definitely strongly considering looking back into it though, it’s just that reverse proxying to the container was a nightmare… it still haunts my config, lol

@ikidd@lemmy.world avatar

I use NPM and all I think I had to add to it was


<span style="color:#323232;">client_body_buffer_size 512k;
</span><span style="color:#323232;">proxy_read_timeout 86400s;
</span><span style="color:#323232;">client_max_body_size 0;
</span>

in the Advanced config. I’d love to move to Traefik but I could not figure out how to make that work.

There were some other gotchas. If you run into something, ping me, I might remember if I encountered it and what I did.

filister, in Nextcloud Performance Improvements

Thanks for sharing it, really helpful post

redcalcium, in Nextcloud Performance Improvements

I’m going to try this next week. My nextcloud instance is getting a bit sluggish lately.

fruitycoder, in How safe is self-hosting a public website behind Cloudflare?

I’m definitely a fan of Gitlab pages for simple webpages I just want on the Internet. It’s nice to have the code hosted anyways (gives me that off site back up safety so my stuff at home can go down if needed).

Petter1, in File size preference for Radarr?

44gb for 1080 seems to be a remux file, which is the source of channel not converted but only repackaged. Just remove remux from your profiles and sed radarr to upgrade to other 1080 profiles by moving remux down in the list.

charliegrahamm, in File size preference for Radarr?

Think the “Quality Definitions” section of the settings in Radarr is what you’re looking for.

LufyCZ, in Question - ZFS and rsync

One thing I haven’t seen mentioned here, zfs can be quite finicky with some sata cards, especially raid cards.

I suggest you connect the hard drives to the motherboard directly and test again.

isles,

Thank you! I ended up connecting them directly to the main board and had the same result with rsync, eventually the zpool becomes inaccessible until reboot (ofc there may be other ways to recover it without reboot).

driftWood, in XCP-NG with XOSTOR working?

Figured it out. I had created 3 VMs but was trying to created shared storage between 2 xcp-ng instances. I assumed that this can be done and the 3 instance will only act as witness without contributing to the storage.

After going through many replies on the forum thread I understood that you need minimum 3 hosts participating in the storage. Modified my setup to match the requirements (was easy since they are just VMs) all the instructions worked correctly.

The error about missing linstor python module was that I hadn’t installed necessary packages on 3rd host in the pool since I assumed it doesn’t require XOSTOR instructions to be run on it since it would not be participating in shared storage. This is my understanding though and I can be wrong.

Having written above I think I can still have only 2 hosts participating in storage but just need to install necessary packages on third host also. Will try and see how it goes.

possiblylinux127, (edited ) in NAS/Media Server Build Recommendations

Like others have said, for a thousand dollars you can get a ton of stuff. For comparison my latest bud cost me around $200 and has about 6tb of raw storage. It runs proxmox and is paired with a mini PC I bought when I first started. I have btrfs raid for the system and then a separate controller for a TrueNAS VM. It even has a bluray drive that I picked up second hand and a RX590 that had to be cut down to fit in the case.

$1000 dollars can buy you a mini data center with used hardware. I honestly don’t know what to recommend but what ever you do make sure its flexible down the road so you aren’t locked into stuff from the past. I would go for a beefier CPU with good cooling and plenty of pcie. Just a note Intel CPUs work better for video encoding.

knobbysideup, in What's the point of a reverse proxy and does cloudflare give all the benefits of one?
@knobbysideup@sh.itjust.works avatar

Other than waf stuff, if you have multiple servers behind a small nat, a reverse proxy can service them all from a single exposed public address. You can also do rewrite rules on the proxy vs on each server.

stown, in [solved] WireGuard VPN IP Issue
@stown@sedd.it avatar

Change your allowed IPs config to 0.0.0.0/0

Smash,

Wouldn’t this tunnel everything? I just want 10.10.10.0/24 and 10.0.0.0/24 (VPN and LAN IP range to get tunneled). I also don’t know how this would mitigate this issue

Smash,

Thanks for the pointer, it seems it’s an DNS issue after all (IT’S ALWAYS DNS). Routing all traffic through the tunnel forces the Clients to use the DNS server of the LAN. Without, my internal websites (which use a public domain namespace) are sometimes resolved with a public DNS. So the browser doesn’t request test.home.network (10.0.0.100) but test.home.network (1.19.72.59).

stown,
@stown@sedd.it avatar

Glad you figured it out. I’ve also run into issues with Firefox using the wrong DNS.

root, in NAS/Media Server Build Recommendations
@root@lemmy.world avatar

I have a beefed up Intel NUC running Proxmox (and my self hosted services within those VMs) and a stand alone NAS that I mount on the necessary VMs via fstab.

I really like this approach, as it decouples my storage and compute servers.

Tinnitus,

Based on some of the other comments, it sounds like this might be the way to go. What NAS are you working with?

root,
@root@lemmy.world avatar

I was using a WD PR4100, but I upgraded to a Synology RS1221+ and it’s been fantastic :)

juli, in This Week in Self-Hosted (29 December 2023)

Experience with endurian?

github.com/joaovitoriasilva/endurain

It states that it’s strava like. The difference of strava compared to nextcloud, fitotrack, osmdashboard is that it’s a social running app. It is mastodon where people only post about their tracks.

I haven’t read anything about social on the website?

spez_,

I love projects which never include a screenshot. Skipped

juli,

Relax. It’s new. You can’t have everything at the beginning
