I completely forgot portainer was a thing and I’ve used compose files for a few years. If I try anything new a unified dashboard (for managing multiple hosts) would be cool.

If there’s a concern that an adversary can rewrite hashes then why is there not a concern the public key could also be rewritten and the hashes signed with the fake key?

Considering all of them are supposed to integrate with each other they’re relatively hard to integrate. I find it rather astounding they haven’t figured out service discovery.

A shared volume could help with this but of course every container needs to be on the same version to benefit from deduplication.

Don’t think Docker Desktop would simplify networking, unless it added a new feature since I last used it ~2 years ago.

Bitsocial is very similar to bittorrent and inspired by bittorrent

You can’t upload media directly

Inspired by a media sharing protocol so you can not share media… 😖

Yeah, I’m a developer and my teammates don’t always follow semver standards. I try to but every now and then it’s really hard to know which is the right move. I’ve also had breaks because of minor increments and the author refused to roll back the change because the new behavior was consistent with the spec [that didn’t change].

Great idea. Automatic updates (e.g. Watchtower) make me a little nervous.

For pure energy efficiency it’s hard to beat an SBC (raspi, rockpi). Mine does a good job with Jellyfin streaming so long as I avoid transcoding.

They fucked up by making their robots last seemingly forever, due to the fact they spy on you and get stuck every 15 mins so you never want to turn them on.

What about multiple Pis? Seriously asking. I love having a Pi as a dedicated server (small footprint, low energy, low temp). Do I really need to switch to a more traditional ITX/ATX form factor to get real reliability?

Let’s be honest, not all races are equal<br> 🫲🍊🫱

Be aware you might have to resort to nftables if firewalld doesn’t work. I use localhost a lot and the routing rules are different in that case.

Thanks for mentioning Wolf. I’m pretty happy with Sunshine but I do have those occasions where it can’t stream because my monitor is turned off (upstairs) when I’m downstairs.

As soon as I saw Plex show media that wasn’t part of my personal library I knew it was becoming enshitified.

I convert my files to avoid transcoding but my Raspberry Pi 4B handles Jellyfin just fine.

Even if it isn’t an OpenWRT router if you have a hardwired server it can probably do a soft reset of the router or even modem (most modems I’ve used have had a web interface). If your router is in such a bad state it only responds to a hard reset it’s probably reaching EoL.

As I’ve found out recently, finding true alternatives can be difficult. Take bread for instance. I just discovered Bimbo Bakeries own at least 26 brands. So when you’re on the bread aisle you probably have a moderate to high chance of buying one of their products.

For me it really depends on the use-case. A lot of times I want persistence but don’t really care to access the data outside of the container. So rather than using the extra brainpower to make up folders myself and ensure paths don’t change I just let Docker handle those details for me. Also I use Podman a fair amount and it seems to be more troublesome when it comes to bind mounts.

I probably made a small mistake in setting that up but I tried making the dedicated “home movies” folder and it wouldn’t show my videos.
