I used syncthing for a while. Then tried github with mostly terrible results. Now i’m back on syncthing. It involves a little bit of setup, but i mostly forget about it now. It just works.

I use an Amazfit GTR 2e, and it works almost perfectly with gadgetbridge. The only difficulty I have is i’m unable to manually update A-GPS data, so getting a GPS lock can take a while. But I don’t use it a lot, and honestly, the Fitbit Versa I came from wasn’t all that much better.

I’ve only played a couple hours so far. I just thought I hadn’t figured out how to access the maps not that they didn’t exist…

I got this same email. Of course the only domains I own are .com and .xyz. Going to lock in as many years as I can before September.

I finally started looking into emulating on my phone, so I’ve been playing some games from my childhood. Mostly Alleyway and Pokemon Red, with a little Harvest Moon thrown in.

It’s been almost a year since I checked it out, but I had a lot of issues with jellyfin compared to plex. Mainly transcoding would never work, so streaming outside of my local network never worked well.

I’ve been selfhosting for almost a year, and I’m still on the lookout for anything I can host.

I’ve reached a point where if I don’t have a use for something, i’ll still try to make an unraid template if there isn’t one. Just to install it and try it out. Lol

I want that router, but I don’t have a good reason to give my wife why our RB4011 needs to be upgraded…lol

It’s written specifically for unraid, but given they are mainly python scripts, it may work on other systems.

Requires plex and the *arr stack.

Along with the crazy prices, there is the simplicity. No need to figure out what is streaming where. Just open plex/jellyfin and watch.

Extremely simple! It’s literally just a few screws and unplug the old one and put in the new. Took all of 10 minutes and at least half of that was trying to find my small screwdriver bits. Lol

My use case sounds similar to yours, so I’d second the T480. I got one 7-8 months ago, and it’s been great so far. Only thing I changed was I put in a backlit keyboard.

I don’t know any general laptop communities. At leasr not ones with any activity, but !thinkpad@lemmy.ml seems relatively active.

If you ever need to find a community, https://lemmyverse.net/communities is a decent place to start.

I’ve got a Mikrotik RB4011, and I couldn’t be happier with it. It definitely has a learning curve, but once I got it setup how I want, it just works. I’m sure some other options have the same feature, but one of my favorite things is a script I have run every night that emails me a backup.

I’ve only ever had to use it a few times, but having a recent backup of my router on hand all the time is nice.

This is the exact setup I use and it works great!

Yes, I haven’t come across any apps so far that didn’t work. Performance is an issue with some apps, but nothing major.

I have the Leaf 2 and like it a lot. Can be a little slow sometimes, but nothing worse than any other ereader I’ve used.

I didn’t really expect a thread on piracy to convince me to pay for a game, but here we are…

Those are the two I switch between too. I slightly prefer homepage, but you can’t go wrong with either one.

It’s VNC, but it’s included in the docker image I use, so nothing extra other than adding authentication in front of it.

How is performance now? I moved away from it a year or so ago because the performance was pretty bad on my system, even with an external database.

I host a copy of Obsidian on my server, and I can access it through a reverse proxy. There isn’t any authentication though, so you have to use something like Authelia.

I wasn’t a fan last time I tried it out. I’m glad they changed the name though. Calckey sounded more like an excel alternative.

I’ll have to check it out again at some point though.

Thanks for this link! I’m on Vultr, which is good, but it’s around $7 a month with only 25GB of storage. Think I’ll pick up one of the Ethernet Servers deals.

I host it on a VPS since I was hesitant about having something like this hosted at home. As far as spinning it up, it was relatively straightforward using the docker instructions (https://join-lemmy.org/docs/administration/install_docker.html).

I ran into some issues with the postfix container not being able to send emails, but it turned out I just needed to ask my VPS provider to unblock port 25 for SMTP.

Nice! Just me on my instance too. The only downside I’ve found so far is that I have to discover new communities in my own since there is no one else to populate “All”.

Small price to pay to have control over my instance though.

Hey, thanks for doing that! I, unfortunately, didn’t think about people that would need to use screen readers or the like. Next time I’ll wait until I’m at a computer to type it out.

Pretty much anything I can. It’s too much to type out, but my Homepage lists most of it minus any databases or reverse proxies. I also host a one person Lemmy instance. Everything but Lemmy is run on a 2013 gaming PC with Unraid.

EDIT: After posting this, I’ll probably end up selfhosting an imgur alternative too…

This looks great for my one person instance! Any way to unsub and block any unwanted communities?

I ended up getting a cheap VPS to use for Lemmy and Matrix for exactly that reason. They didn’t want to play well with Cloudflare proxy, so the VPS was the easiest solution.

Thanks for this! Last time I looked, it didn’t support searXNG.
