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.

Sweet!

What's up is everything I've been running and down is what I haven't.

not working

I haven't been able to get friendica to connect to Maria DB, so I'll eventually try just MySql. Grafana isn't running bc I would need to change a lot of things to get an exporter into each container and the truenas apps don't really allow that configuration - fine if you have docker compose though, which I've started doing more and more.

new

I just got up and running with Stirling pdf, a free (and paid) PDF editor. That looks pretty sweet.

But I'm now also using 15GB of the 32 on the system, which is still plenty for Arc cache for me

what I want

I want to rent a VPS to host various fediverse apps, probably Lemmy, pixelfed, and write freely to start, for the nomad/expect communities. I've been looking at netcup and they have some decent arm offerings.

I'd like to put Talos Linux on it so I can get some kubernetes experience. They have a good sized server for €10, so I could expand to add a DB server or one specifically for logging and metrics.

I was looking at Hetzner, but I've read that their block storage is super slow and causes timeouts on DB.

Of course, can I even run these apps on arm? I guess I gotta find that out.

One thing I'd like to do is make a web page that makes signups super easy and would create an account on all services, ideally. Not a huge deal of that isn't reasonable, but it'd be nice to allow doing it once rather than multiple times. If I could get sso, that'd be good, but I don't know how supported that is.
