This is fantastic. I REALLY hope you can set a control on a post that allows quoting to be disabled or only allowed by people you follow. A great step in the right direction.

Is there a reason you’re trying to expose them to the internet? IMO you’re better off not doing that and using Overseer as the only exposed service that talks to everything else. Exposing the whole arr stack is just unwise and unnecessary.

Yeah… that’s a non-starter for me. Not gonna risk my entire home lab when Plex doesn’t have any of that risk.

Also, running in Docker is fantastic but I’ve found Docker to be unstable at times depending on the version.

I’ve heard jellyfin has a lot of security issues, which I don’t know if that’s accurate or not. But the BIGGEST issue is lack of a proper tvOS app. I really don’t feel like using Infuse or some other app just to use my library. Year after year I hear about people switching and yet, the gap is simply still there.

TBH I would consider an M4 Mac Mini and either a NAS or DAS to go along with it. The power, efficiency, and price make it a really compelling choice.

Those are great links. Thanks for posting them! Gonna give them a look.

Web Rings were freaking awesome. I’ve recently discovered the Small Web tool from Kagi and it’s basically a modern version of a web ring. It’s pretty slick. www.kagi.com/smallweb if you’re interested.

Right??? Like it’s 1995 all over again.

But is it? Because the amount of websites that aren’t search engines but have insane levels of tracking and data collection are very high. Not all of it is for search ranking, IMO.

Correct and what I’ve seen from Jellyfin / Emby are poor looking at best. While I could cobble together a system that works for me, there’s no way anyone I share with would put up with it. Plex is PLEX for a reason.

I like this idea! It helps get people some traction out there without them needing to put effort into fumbling around how to do it. Kind of like a push start. I’m going to start doing this!

You got it. Good luck!

So there’s 2 files that go along with the main script: a config file and a download list.

The download list file is literally a list of YT channel URLs and any time I want it to get new channels, I add to the list. Conversely if I get tired of watching a channel, I comment it out or just delete it. YT-DLP just traverses the list.

The config is where the magic happens. That dictates how the file is named, quality you download at, location it’s saved to, format, etc. You can incorporate SponsorBlock which is awesome and even DeArrow has an integration. I enjoy the logging feature so it doesn’t re-download vids it’s already snagged. Generally I’ll tell it to get every video from a channel that’s been posted in the last 15 days.

My destination for the files is a YouTube library folder I set up in Plex. Plex sees it just as another TV-like library and it pulls the metadata from the files, which are embedded by YT-DLP.

Hope this helps!

I use YT-DLP to scrip the download of vids I want to watch and it drops them into Plex for me. I set it to run every 4 hours.

1. I think it can, you just need to give it the machine’s name or local IP and the port.
2. Nope!
3. Caddy handles all certs from LE and renews them for you too. Nothing you need to do on your own.

Yes this is possible. I have a few hosted items with subdomains and I have it set up as follows:

All subdomains point to the same IP. Router port forwards all 80/8080 traffic to server. I use Caddy in Docker to forward the requests based on the subdomain to the appropriate docker container hosting the actual service.

This makes spinning up something new simple. You get a docker container of New Thing going, edit the CaddyFile to point to it too, set up new subdomain in cloudflare. No new open ports needed.

Hope this helps!

Personally I’ve loved Pixelmator and have an old non-subscription copy I still use from time to time. If they’re still offering single-purchase versions, my recommendation is to get that. It’s an amazing Photoshop replacement.

Omg I never knew about composerize or it-tools. This would save me a ton of headaches. Absolutely using this in the future.

I agree it’s a networking problem. The issue I have is I don’t know how to fix it.

I installed Portainer and figured out how to get the container onto my network. But then it was unreachable. So I’m more lost the more I try to figure this out.

Are you using any specific network commands in your docker compose? Are you running specific networking in the container? I’m trying to figure out how it’s working for you and what likely obvious thing I’m missing. Thanks.

Thanks. I’ve done this (even getting my API key) but the issue I’m running into is the fact that the Docker container doesn’t see the Pi-Hole machine. I believe it’s a networking issue, but I don’t know how to figure out how to get it to see it. Is there a networking flag I need to include in Homepage’s Docker Compose? That seems to be my issue.
