I do the same!

I have a provider that is not supported by caddy, but I can still use it via duckdns delegation!

Challenge delegation

To obtain a certificate using ACME DNS challenges, you’d use this module as described above. But, if you have a different domain (say, my.example.com) CNAME’d to your Duck DNS domain, you have two options:

1. Not use this module: Use a module matching the DNS provider for my.example.com.
2. Delegate the challenge to Duck DNS.

I run proxmox, and proxmox backup server in a vm. PBS backup is encrypted locally, and I upload the backup to backblaze b2 using rclone in a cron job. I store the decryption key elsewhere

It has worked ok for me. I also upload a heartbeat file, it is just a empty file with todays date (touch heartbeat), so that I can easily check when the last upload happened

When I have used nfs in the past, i have issues with different user ID. What is the best solution these days?

After becoming a father last year, the time I have for tinkering is close to 0. I found it easiest to keep all the data in the same vm / lxc, pretty straight forward to maintain

I tried that too for a time, using samba. But databases didn’t work from a share. I just found it easier in the end to have volumes inside the LXC / VM directly

I’m using smtp gotify , been using it for a while now and it seems OK for alerts and outer features

I used to use LXC, and switched to VM since internet said it was better.

I kinda miss the LXC setup. Day to day I don’t notice any difference, but increasing storage space in VM was a small pain compared to LXC. In VM I increased disk size through proxmox, but then I had to increase the partition inside VM.

In LXC you can just increase disk size and it immediately is available to the containers

Have you considered gollum https://github.com/gollum/gollum ?

A simple, Git-powered wiki with a local frontend and support for many kinds of markup and content.

I used it a long time ago, but then I wanted to try the next shiny note taking app…

I set up a server with all my stuff on, and use syncthing for syncing my files, and self hosting for services. I mostly use vanilla configs for apps, and prefer distros with good defaults.

Some time ago I switched to Bluefin, and stopped distro-hopping 😅

I also use miniflux, have used it for more than a year and I have not looked for alternatives, which is good sign.

I use Flux News on android to consume my feeds. https://github.com/KevinCFechtel/FluxNews

I agree. I learned and used emacs and org mode for several years. With age, I now want simpler tools that do not need extensive configuration. Using mainly Spyder and VS Code for python coding

Me too. I use uptime kuma to send the api request. then I also get uptime status 🙂

if i remember correctly, i just replaced gitea with forgejo for image: in my docker-compose, and it just worked

it was a couple of versions back, so i don’t know if that still works

I’m using leng in an dedicated LXC container in Proxmox

https://github.com/cottand/leng

I’m using defaults + some local dns lookups. Works fine for my use, and lighter than pihole. No web ui

Which apps are you testing?

I set up minio s3 for testing myself, but found that most of my docker services doesn’t really support it. So I went back to good old folders

I use nforwardauth . It is simple, but only supports username/password

https://github.com/nosduco/nforwardauth

yes, regular markdown notes has been a good decision 😅

In the beginning, the query results were stored in the markdown files, which could be useful if reading them in another app. But now I just get the query code. I think there were reasons

I’m glad to hear things have cooled down. Does it take much effort to understand and use the templating stuff? I just remember templates got pushed to a different view, and I needed some header tags to get it working

So you like spaces or not? I never got that far with silverbullet. And I haven’t used Trillium. I loved evernote when it came out. But it made me aware of the value of maintaining my own data.

Now I try to have data in a directory structure and not in databases

I am not thinking of the most recent versions.

The query system was updated, around version 0.6 if i remember correctly. I don’t think the updates were bad, but some things broke and I am too old for “bleeding edge”. The template system was also updated at some point

I don’t have a great solution. I use syncthing to keep notes local on all devices and MarkText on desktop and Zettel Notes on android.

what i really liked about silverbullet was that it had offline support. but there were made some changes there as well along the way, and for me it became less stable after it became optional. But I haven’t actively used it for some time. I still got an instance running tho

How do you like the newer versions? I liked it in the beginning, but then there were breaking changes and new concepts and it started to feel a bit too complicated. So I am taking a break until things cool down

I don’t use multiple users or ldap, but miniflux supports many users. And based on this pull request it seems to have the necessary interface for ldap?

https://github.com/miniflux/v2/pull/570

I enjoy and recommend miniflux for rss reading. I have used it for a long time now together with flux news android app. I also use save integration with wallabag sometimes.

I use proxmox and proxmox backup server (in a vm). I reinstall them both, and re-add lxc and vm and their drives from backup. has already worked once.

important files are additionaly synced to laptop and phone using syncthing.

proxmox backups (which are encrypted) are rcloned to backblaze for offsite backup
