  • Tailscale is a VPN. Caddy is a reverse proxy. I'm not sure why you're comparing the two, unless you meant Traefik?

  • Excited to compare this with my setup (also Quadlet and Traefik-based)!

  • Hang on.

    Would it not be better to run a VPN server on your router to force all WAN-bound traffic through the VPN? This way, you could still access your local devices.

  • Please don't use AI for simple things like this.

    The Odin Project has a tutorial on Git Basics and a guide on Setting Up Git. The instructions are roughly the same whether on Github, Codeberg, etc.

    Once you have the repository, it's as simple as:

     sh
        
    git add .
    git commit -m "Updated config"
    git push origin main

    Retro-Themed/Inspired Terminal-Centric Setups

    Hey everyone! I'm looking for some inspiration for retro-themed or retro-inspired setups. Retro-futurism is cool too! Especially Window Manager setups. I appreciate anything y'all can give.

    (Actually Useful) Decentralized Infrastructure/Distributed Computing Projects?

    I've been seeing news about the Helium network for quite a while now and have been curious about it. However, it has been near-impossible to find information on it that isn't either crypto-hypeman speak or "lol crypto LMAO". Not a big fan of crypto myself - just interested in the prospect of contributing to a large-scale infrastructure or computing project. Any recommendations for similar things, or in this 'genre', I suppose?

  • Good god, is this a post from Mastodon or something? All of your posts look like the title is a duplicated version of the post body.

  • How exactly is it "pretty shit"? Running Jellyfin on my network with zero issues whatsoever.

  • I'm surprised no one has mentioned Logseq yet.

  • "Someone mentions a distro they like" ≠ shilling. I use Bazzite and have been for months. Before that, used Nobara, EndeavourOS, and vanilla Fedora, along with a number of others I tried when I was distro-hopping. Wholeheartedly believe that Bazzite is currently the best generally-available Linux distro for gaming and is up there for general use. It's not perfect, but nothing is - it gets close for the use-cases I mentioned, though.

  • Question: Does the green globe icon always indicate that it's working?

  • Sorry, I realized as I was pasting it that I had typo'd in my config (consistently, as in it was functional) and started to correct it. My bad.

    Port Forwarding w/ Qbittorrent & Gluetun Docker Compose?

    I'm trying to get Qbittorrent set up within Docker on my home server and want to configure port forwarding through my VPN for all of those Linux ISOs. Ideally, I also want to get a pipeline going with the *arr stack. I've heard the easiest way to do this is with Gluetun but I can't for the life of me figure it out or know how to test it. Anyone been through something similar?

    Here is my current Docker Compose for reference:

     yaml
        
    
    services:
      gluetun:
        image: qmcgaw/gluetun:latest
        container_name: gluetun
        cap_add:
          - NET_ADMIN
        environment:
          - VPN_SERVICE_PROVIDER=airvpn
          - VPN_TYPE=wireguard
          - WIREGUARD_PRIVATE_KEY="[redacted]"
          - WIREGUARD_PRESHARED_KEY="[redacted]
          - WIREGUARD_ADDRESSES=10.131.184.14/32
          - FIREWALL_VPN_INPUT_PORTS=8069
          - SERVER_COUNTRIES=United States
        devices:
          - /dev/net/tun:/dev/net/tun
        volumes:
          - /home/fenndev/.config/gluetun:/config
        ports:
          - 9091:9091  # WebUI
         - 6881:688
      

    Podman rootless and ufw

  • May I ask what services you're running, and to see your Quadlet files? I'm about to make the same move.

  • They have their own config generator and port forwarding is really easy to set up IMO. Both need to be logged in to see, though.

  • The interface - GUI and website - is straight out of 2008 and documentation could be better, but otherwise it works just fine for torrenting and browsing. No complaints there.

  • Happily using AirVPN for port forwarding.

  • Would love some guides on torrenting over I2P.

  • I appreciate the offer, but unfortunately, I'm an American.

    Budget Homelab UPS Recommendations? (Used or New)

    I'm running a rather small homelab and am hunting for a good UPS to help keep everything running smoothly. My top priorities are:

    • Just enough battery life to keep things running until they can be shut down
    • Compatible with open source software for monitoring and automated shutdown

    Would I have better luck getting a used one and a new battery, or a brand new unit altogether? Anyone have one they don't need anymore, on that note? 👀

    Thanks for the advice!

    Uses for a SBC (When You Already Have an x86 Mini-PC?)

    I've got a Lenovo M720q running as my main server in my home and it's more than powerful enough for anything I could be doing right now. However, I also have a Le Potato lying around that I'd like to do something with. Any suggestions?

  • I just spun up a FreshRSS container and it is working flawlessly for that purpose so far. I appreciate the suggestions.

  • It's hosted, but not self-hosted.

  • Linkwarden doesn't appear to support RSS, which is a massive bummer.

  • I was just looking at this, actually. For a moment I thought it was going to be a bust but then I saw there is a preference option to open the readable form of a page by default. I also love PWAs...

    Omnivore Alternatives?

    I'm looking for a self-hosted alternative for Omnivore. To keep it short and sweet, I'm looking for an app that I can subscribe to RSS feeds from and maintain Reader Mode-esque archives of news articles and interesting things I've read. Obsidian integration would be nice but is not a priority; however, the ability to save from Android is a must.

    Hoarder is something I've recently spun up on my home server but despite looking great, it doesn't do what I'd like it to do. Clicking on an article doesn't present me with a Reader Mode archive, it takes me to the actual webpage; I have to click on something else to get the cached version (and even then, it doesn't format things in the way I'd like). I feel this order of operations should be reversed. On the mobile app, you can't even access the cached version.

    I've used Wallabag before, but disliked the mobile interface. I wasn't self-hosting, however, so I'm

    Network-Wide Resolution & Routing of Non-Standard Traffic?

    TL; DR: Is it possible (and if so, desirable) to configure my OPNsense router to handle non-standard traffic instead of needing to configure each client device manually? Examples of what I mean by 'non-standard traffic' include Handshake, I2P, ZeroNet, and Tor.

    Components/Tools List for DIY, analog 'Beginner Electronics' Kit?

    I'm new to electronics and looking to assemble an array of components and tools for working on and designing electronics & circuits. Something immediately apparent is that all of the widely available kits orient you towards working with microcontrollers and SBCs; these kits are cool, but I want to have a halfway decent understanding of the underlying analog components and circuit design before I go digital.

    With that in mind, what should I get? If anyone could specify specifics to look into, I'd really appreciate that! Thanks for the help.

    Current list

    • A decent breadboard
    • Jumper wires
    • Multimeter
    • Batteries
    • Variable Power Supply?
    • Assorted resistors (1Ω-?)
    • Capacitors (Electrolytic and ceramic?)
    • Various ICs?
    • Transistors?
    • Diodes, probably?
    • Potentiometers

    Traefik + Vaultwarden 502 Error

    Edit: Thanks for the help, issue was solved! Had Traefik's loadbalancer set to route to port 8081, not the internal port of 80. Whoops.

    Intro

    HI everyone. I've been busy configuring my homelab and have run into issues with Traefik and Vaultwarden running within Podman. I've already successfully set up Home Assistant and Homepage but for the life of me cannot get things working. I'm hoping a fresh pair of eyes would be able to spot something I missed or provide some advice. I've tried to provide all the information and logs relevant to the situation.

    Expected Behavior:

    1. Requests for *.fenndev.network are sent to my Traefik server.
    2. Incoming HTTPS requests to vault.fenndev.network are forwarded to Vaultwarden
      • HTTP requests are upgraded to HTTPS
    3. Vaultwarden is accessible via https://vault.fenndev.network and utilizes the wildcard certificates generated by Traefik.

    Any Guides to FFMPEG, Transcoding, Codecs, and Metadata?

    I have a collection of about ~110 4K Blu-Ray movies that I've ripped and I want to take the time to compress and store them for use on a future Jellyfin server.

    I know some very basics about ffmpeg and general codec information, but I have a very specific set of goals in mind I'm hoping someone could point me in the right direction with:

    1. Smaller file size (obviously)
    2. Image quality good enough that I cannot spot the difference, even on a high-end TV or projector
    3. Preserved audio
    4. Preserved HDR metadata

    In a perfect world, I would love to be able to convert the proprietary HDR into an open standard, and the Dolby Atmos audio into an open standard, but a good compromise is this.

    Assuming that I have the hardware necessary to do the initial encoding, and my server will be powerful enough for transcoding in that format, any tips or pointers?

    Automated Archival-Level Git Repo Mirroring?

    cross-posted from: https://leminal.space/post/4761745

    Shortly before the recent removal of Yuzu and Citra from Github, attempts were made to back up and archive both Github repos; it's my understanding that these backups, forks, etc. are fairly incomplete, either lacking full Git history or lacking Pull Requests, issues, discussions, etc.

    I'm wondering if folks here have information on how to perform thorough backups of public, hosted git repos (e.g. Github, Gitlab, Codeberg, etc.). I'd also like to automate this process if I can.

    git clone --mirror is something I've looked into for a baseline, with backup-github-repo looking like a decent place to start for what isn't covered by git clone.

    The issues I can foresee:

    • Each platform builds its own tooling atop Git, like Issues and Pull Requests from Github
    • Automating this process might be tricky
    • Not having direct access/contributor permissions for the G
