You’re not connected to wifi or vpn from the looks of it. jellyfin is hosted on your local network. You need to be connected to that network for any device you want to access it. The most direct way is to connect via wifi. If you want access from outside your house you’ll need to look into opening a remote connection via something like cloudflare tunnel
Logseq to some extent, but it’s set up to be a journal/ meeting notes where you tag pages, add documents, etc. it would be up to how you’ve tagged things. Does have a graph view of your pages and whiteboard feature.
Personally it wasn’t exactly what i wanted out of a PKM but it is really powerful. It’s intended to handle taking notes efficiently from meetings and then somewhat self organizing the notes as long as you tag stuff.
Foundry was the 2nd thing i started self hosting (the first being pihole). Have had it running for 5 years now.
Other than that i only recently started expanding my self hosting:
Without knowing what reddit is doing, I’m not sure. A JS redirect could be detected, but if OPs paid shortener service is working then reddit is probably working off a simple domain block list. In that case you could use throw away domains.
But JS redirect, proxy response, etc all could just become a game of cat and mouse. Just depends how motivated either side is. But given how big reddit is, i think you’d have the advantage at least in the beginning. Just gets expensive since each time your domain gets blocked you’ll be paying to register a new one.
I’m not familiar with the reddit filtering but have you tried using cloudflare page rules? You can try capturing everything after the .tld and then forward it to a lemmy server. So for instance somedomain.tld/12345 could forward to lemmy.world/post/12345. If reddit is checking links for 301 redirects to lemmy though then that wouldn’t work.
A more advanced approach would be to use a cloudflare worker to do a proxy response so the status code is returned as 200 OK instead of 301 redirect. I haven’t tried that but i think that would be much harder for them to block and you could always make more elaborate urls to make it harder to find obvious lemmy-like structure
I would use cloudflare pages (or any forge ‘pages’ feature) before using tunnels for a static website
This is something that doesn’t really need to be self hosted unless you’re wanting the experience. You just need:
So for my website i just write new content, push to my forge, and then a pipeline builds and releases the update on my website.
Where self hosting comes into play is that it could make some things with static websites easier, like some comment systems, contact forms, etc. But you can still do all of this without self hosting. Comments can be handled through git issues (utteranc.es) and for a contact form i use ‘hero tofu’ free tier. In the end i don’t have to worry about opening access to my ports and can still have a static website with a contact form. All for free outside of cost of domain.
Im not familiar with doku wiki but here’s a few thoughts
I have had the same experience. Have used all three at some point but mostly use nginx for new servers
Edit: i see now they’re talking about private IP, but in case you want to learn about getting a static IP for other things…
Many ISPs will give you a dynamic (changing) IP rather than a static (unchanging) IP. Just check your IP once a week for a few weeks to see if it changes.
There are some services that get around this by checking your ip regularly and updating their records automatically. This is called a dynamic DNS provider (DDNS). I used to use “noip” but since then there are quite a few like cloudflare DDNS.
Beyond that you just would want to make sure your router or whatever device is assigning IPs on your network to give a static assignment to the server. Assigning IPs is handled by a DHCP server and it would usually be your router, but if you have a pihole you might be using that as a DHCP server instead.
Between DDNS and DHCP you can make sure both your external IP and internal IP are static.
Yes. If you’re using lets encrypt then note that they do not support wildcard certs with the HTTP-01 challenge type. You will need to use the DNS-01 challenge type. To utilize it you would need a domain registrar that supports api dns updates like cloudflare and then you can use the acme.sh package. Here is an example guide i found.
Note that you could still request multiple explicit subdomains in the same issue/renew commands so it’s not a huge deal either way but the wildcard will be more seamless in the future if you don’t know what other services you might want to selfhost.
Agreed, though i do think it’s a privacy thing. Many people use privacy and anonymity interchangeably but they are different things.
The options are:
I did the catchall for a few years but have been doing aliases for 5+ now. In the end, the only people/ companies who have my email are the ones I want.
Even has kitty timestamps further down 😻
So you dislike external sync options but also don’t want to pay for internal sync options? Additionally you are in a self hosted community so you’re looking for a presumably open source project (some you listed are not), and given internally supported sync services would be one way fund development i think this narrows what your are looking for by quite a bit. You basically would be looking for an open source project that meets all your other criteria and happens to let you sync the files to your own server for free. Why would such a project not just let you take things into your own hands with whatever flavor of sync/backup you prefer? Otherwise if they’re building a sync system it would probably be a monetized cloud service which brings us back to the beginning.
Maybe such a thing exists, but I haven’t seen such a thing since that is extra development for little to no gain. Most people are happy to either pay for the cloud service to fund development or sync on their own.
Logseq: Same issues as with obsidian: Paid sync. Didnt look much beyond
Logseq is open source. Obsidian is not. So yes, both have paid sync but you can also just sync or backup the files on your own. Just be careful of sync services that sync while files/db are in use to avoid conflicts.
Wait, if they suspended your domain, can you even transfer it away? if not, that’s really fucking scary.
Njalla takes ownership of every domain purchased on their platform. They do let you transfer domains to another registrar where you could be the owner if your account is in good standing but seems like that may not be the case here (since account suspended)
That may be great for some domain use cases but for most stuff it would be better to have your name on the domain registration
I really like that it is a static website being updated and built on a schedule from github actions.
Thanks! I’ll add that to my list to check out
Well to speak of the obvious- open source. I’ve heard good things about obsidian but i am not trusting a closed source app with my notes/ mind-maps
This project looks pretty promising, and is open source.
I submitted a response but if i may give some feedback, the second portion brings up:
This seemed out of place because there were no other value related questions (iirc). Such as:
I’m sure you could also think of more. But i think it’s pretty important because between cloud service providers and any non-free apps you want to use, it can be quite costly compared to the cost of some hardware and time it takes to set things up.
The rest of my responses don’t change but if you’re wanting to understand the impact of money in all of this, i think some more questions are needed
Best of luck!
