I bounced around a bit after Storj decided to hate consumers and institute massive minimums.

I’ve landed on Backblaze B2, S3 compatible. Add others have mentioned, doing a shared NAS 2 NAS hookup with a friend or family member is a nice ideal way to do it without monthly fees.

I use Borg backup from my PCs to a NAS (QNAP), and from there using the built in backup software to go off-site. My self hosted PCs will mount NAS drives directly (like immich and audiobookshelf) and those are also in the NAS off-site job.

Reolink stores to a SD card with the option to upload to FTP backups.

I suspect a big 128 gb card would be good enough without off-site storage.

I know nothing of the full conversation, but I read the"meltdown". I sort of sided with the melt down guy. Everything he said there was reasonable, albeit slightly verbose.

IDGAF about the whole thing so it might just be that the final post was fine, but the rest was not :shrug:

This is most definitely AI assisted. I won’t say vibe coded, but this has the hallmarks.

I understand why some would do this. It’s definitely a more secure setup, but I highly doubt “most”. I like having passwords on my work laptop. I couldn’t sync there with a VPN, for example. My wife, kids and parents aren’t going to run VPNs on their phones, etc.

Isn’t that there point though? Remote synchronizing?

What are you using for a reverse proxy? There’s some nginx websocket settings I had to do before things worked properly. I use cloudflare, but just for the DNS/cdn stuff, not their zero trust things.

server {
  server_name my.domain.com;
  client_max_body_size 2048M;

  location / {
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
    proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
    proxy_set_header Host $host;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $host;
    proxy_pass http://10.10.10.30:13378/;  # My Wireguard Tunnel up to the VPS
    # proxy_cache_bypass  $http_upgrade; # This was added by Certbot
    # WebSocket support
    proxy_http_version 1.1;
    proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
    proxy_set_header Connection $connection_upgrade;
  }

    listen 443 ssl; # managed by Certbot
    ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/my.domain.com/fullchain.pem; # managed by Certbot
    ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/my.domain.com/privkey.pem; # managed by Certbot
    include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-nginx.conf; # managed by Certbot
    ssl_dhparam /etc/letsencrypt/ssl-dhparams.pem; # managed by Certbot

}
server {
    if ($host = my.domain.com) {
        return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
    } # managed by Certbot

  listen 80;
  listen [::]:80;

  server_name my.domain.com;
    return 404; # managed by Certbot
}

I don’t disagree with you, but for a single server hosting multiple projects with differing system dependencies, docker is amazing. I’ve come around to using it for this practical reason.

Using docker over direct installation always feels like an unnecessary interface layer that just complicates things and introduces points of failure.

This feels 1000% like a chatgpt prompt copy and pasted into a webpage.

Nice, thanks for sharing. Do you happen to know if it can connect to multiple backends?

This is the way

Faster batching with better upload duplicate detection and it can preserve your Google photo sets (I didn’t use those though)

I just clicked download on 3 at a time until I was done. Could it be automated? Sure. But clicking 3 at a time is way faster than figuring it out.

I HIGHLY recommend immich-go if you haven’t found it yet: https://github.com/simulot/immich-go

Enjoy immich!! Great self hosting project.

I’m doing the archive tier which is cheaper than B2

I really wanted sia to take off. I wouldn’t trust it yet though.

Don’t use storj. I used to recommend them, but they have instituted a $5 minimum charge to have an account. The tl;dr is that they are interested in B2B, not individuals.

I’ve moved over to Tigris.

Here’s a follow up to the drama: https://forum.storj.io/t/a-follow-up-on-the-new-minimum-usage-fee-and-a-request-for-feedback/30089

Hit up the /r/storj for more drama if you dare to look at Reddit again :puke:

Look into storj and tardigrade. It’s a crypto thing, but don’t get scared. You back up to S3 compatible endpoints and it’s super cheap (and pay with USD credit card)

A few versions ago I upgraded it and some default port configs changed rendering it unusable. Since my upgrades are a docker command, I had to go hunt down the error message. It didn’t take long, but it def broke the setup.

Sad that you’re downvoted for being right.

Java apps can be memory hogs, but anything else can be too. The jvm is exceptionally performant for persistently running apps.

I moved over to TabloTV about 8 or 9 years ago. I got tied of fixing stuff when I would update something and Tablo just worked on the Roku without much fuss.

I’m still happy with and love the Tablo, but it’s no better than MythTV was, just easier to maintain.
