IT WORKED! Thank yoy again for the help :)

I’ve tried first removing the -it flag as suggested by @farcaller@fstab.sh in another comment and see if that works out. Otherwise I’ll try to debug with a logfile as you suggested, thanks!

Oh you are right, thank you. I’ve tried removing it and see if it fixes the issue 🤞

Thank you for pointing it out. I’ll fix it as soon as possible and see if it solves the issue.

However, the script I pasted is fired by another script (called docker_backupper.sh, that is the one triggered by the cronjob and whose purpose is firing a specific script for each service to be backed up) and that script has the #!/bin/bash on top, so I fear adding it also to the “invoked scripts” won’t change that much

Then I would suggest you to take a look at Reverse Proxies, which are programs that let you publicly expose different services hosted on the same computer under different (sub)domains.

The easiest to start with (and also probably the one that better fits your needs) afaik is NGINX Proxy Manager, which can be set up really easily using docker, and you can find plenty of tutorials online (here is one I watched when I was starting to look into docker and selfhosting, it’s a bit old but should still be valid).

If after having set up that you will to thinker around it a little bit and dive a bit deeper, there’s also Traefik which is pretty cool and also has a lot of materials to learn online.

I don’t remember if the video I linked mention it or not, but to use a reverse proxy to expose your services on the web you will first need to set up a dynamic dns (probably the easiest way is to use Cloudflare) or to ask your ISP for a static IP, then go into your routers settings and find the Port Forwarding section where you should tell your routers to send all the incoming traffic from ports 80 (HTTP) and 443 (HTTPS) to the local IP of your server. And then you should be ready to use spin up Nginx Proxy Manager or Traefik on your server.

(idk if I was clear or not but I swear it’s easier that how it seems ahah)

Is immich the only service you want to expose? And did you installed it using docker or directly on your system?

What do you mean with proprietary? 'Cause atproto is foss, but yeah atm Bluesky kinda controls it (even if in the interview she said they would like to move it to a third party regulator in the future)

Well, if what she says in the interview is the truth they don’t plan to make money with ads, but with a cut on their marketplace of algorithms &co + with custom handles (aka custom domains)

So yeah, maybe it will not end up like Twitter

Agree. The episode partially answers some of those questions (of course with a biased answer, since it’s given by their CEO), but I guess that for most of them we’ll just have to wait and see

From what she said, ActivityPub could have adapted to what they wanted, but probably don’t want to. On Bluesky you kinda loose the community feel of your instance that you have and that many people (me included) like.

I elaborated more on the “problems” she listed in another comment here if you want to read more without listening the episode

She was saying that on Mastodon (that was the main activitypub platform she was comparing to) the choice of the instance can heavily influence your experience. If I don’t remember wrong her main points were:

• There’s a local timeline and a federated timeline, and even in the federated timeline you see your instance posts and the posts of the instances yours have federated with, not all posts
• A global search is not always the easiest thing to do, and previous attempts of project that would have facilitated it didn’t received much appreciation from the community
• If your instance admin do choices you don’t agree with (for example blocking another instance) the only way to interact with that other instance is to move yourself
• Moving from an instance to another means loosing your posts and replies, that would stay on the original instance

She was not saying that this approach is wrong, in fact many people on Mastodon like this more community-focused and less-global approach, just that it isn’t what they wanted for Bluesky

And yet, here we are with another conversation about something in the wrong place.

Well, this is is a place to talk about fediverse and ActivityPub, and mine wanted to be the starting point for a discussion about the two protocols and how they compare with each other, if it was actually worth it to create a new protocol or not etc.

I was not pretending that Bluesky is better than the Fediverse, it’s just different and I’m convinced that discussing about how others do stuff can benefit the Fediverse too.

BlueSky and their illusion of federation, what’s to talk about? Anyone can host a server, but all posts need to be indexed by the server of which they’re in charge of otherwise they don’t appear in anyone’s timelines?

As for this, it was my main perplexity after I listened the podcast since they didn’t really entered into the details of how the “multiple servers, one timeline” work. Do you by chance have any resource/link I could read to learn more about that and clarify my doubts?

That’s almost exactly what I was thinking before listening to the podcast.

But there she explained how ActivityPub was missing some of the feature they wanted because of its instance-centric approach and how trying to change that would have been hard (given how sceptical towards changes and everything corporate-related the fediverse community can be), and so they opted for a new protocol since the goals of the two project were with different aims.

Still not 100% convinced tbh, but I can’t deny she has a point…

Even if the corporate is a public benefit corporation with open source foss code both for server and client?

It can be a bit overkill for your use case if you only need to stream the USB media on your tv, but take a look at Jellyfin, it’s a program you can install on any PC and as long as this is up and running on the same network you can access your media on that PC (in your case with the USB plugged in) from any other device (TV, other PCs, Tablets, smartphones)

Still haven’t looked into podman properly, but docker is much easier to learn because as you said there’s a lot more material available online. I’d say start with Docker, and if in the future you will find out podman better fits your needs you can always switch (they should not be that different)

Ahah dw, it happened to me as well and to be fair the OCI UI for opening ports is not the most intuitive piece of software I’ve seen…

Currently using Infomaniak.com and I’m really liking it. They are a bit pricy compared to other registrars but

• they have solid privacy policy
• their servers use renewable energy
• they let you set up DDNS with a simple bash script
• they offer some cool email and kSuite benefits with the purchase of a domain

Not an exper either, but I’ve used OCI Free Tier for a while and most of the times I was encountering issues they were related either to the fact it was ARM and not x86_64 (most tutorials and guides are not written with ARM CPUs in mind) or to the sort of Firewall built in the Oracle Cloud Platform. Have you already checked if the ports required for the services not working are opened correctly?

EDIT: I just realized that ddclient (that I was already considering to set up ddns with cloudflare) also supports Infomaniak directly! (I don’t know how before making this post I didn’t saw it 😅) So I’ll probably go for that way in order to cut out Cloudflare from the equation and rely on one external company less. Thank you :)
