What’s up, what’s down and what are you not sure about?

Let us know what you set up lately, what kind of problems you currently think about or are running into, what new device you added to your homelab or what interesting service or article you found.

I finally finished my first iteration of my Minilab including a very smooth migration from the old server yesterday so I can go to the service side of things again. I plan to get some kind of selfhosters VPN for external access to stuff that's not exposed to the internet, I'll have to investigate which one.

This week moved all my vps's to nixos, so am now able to use one flake for my desktop and all my vps's which significantly lowers down the time I need to manage my vps's.

Nowto move my proxmox homelab server ( an old desktop pc I bought recently ) and all my server's/devices witll be running nixos.

EDIT: An issue I'm thinking about is getting a "proper" server. Not a server like a server rack server, but a mini pc or something along those sides wbich would be a lot stronger and a lot more power efficient than the current 10+ y/o desktop pc I'm using currently.

So would like some reccomendations on that front, like what are some good mini pc brands and mini pc's that I could have raid seted up on for nas or good budget parts and case to make one myself.

Hey! Another nixos user 😁 What are you using for your VPS? nixos-infect? nixos-everywhere?

As for mini PCs, a friend bought one from Minis Forum and quite likes it. But if you want to support the opensource ecosystem, there are tuxedo computers and slimbook. There's also starlabs byte.

Take your pick :)

I'm using nixos-anywhere to install and then deploy-rs to deploy updates to nixos vps's.

Also using agenix for managing secrects for the services so that I can easilly have them all in a public repo, so that other's could take a look and take inspiration.

My nixos flake url if you wan't to take a look.
