What do you prefer to selfhost?
  • I use nginx proxy manager for a reverse proxy and SSL cert automation. Works great for me but I would like to get into traefik sometime.

    I got tired of the NPM and went to traefik for 2 reasons.

    1. NPM kept locking me out of my account (admin), like 4 times during the time I was using it. That meant that it was not reliable enough for daily use.

    2. From what I heard is that the NPM project only has 1 developer and so they can't really respond and fix security flaws in a proper timeframe.

    I'm using traefik now for internal traffic while VPN in if I need internal services while out and about.

    Jim's Garage has a great YouTube video on setting it up.

  • Am I overthinking it?
  • I just recently learned that openSUSE users also have a lot of stability due to btrfs snapshots, so maybe that's really the feature I'm looking for. I don't know much about it, honestly.

    I'm been daily driving openSUSE Tumbleweed for almost a year and from my end there are no problems with it. In fact, no problem that can be pinned to the particular distro.

    I ran into an audio issue with my Bluetooth Headset in Kernel 6.9 3, with sound profiles not appearing. However, this has now been fixed since 2 kernel updates, (eg.it was a bug in the kernel)

    The snapshot feature is awesome and always worked without a hitch when I have been tinkering with stuff I dont know how it works.

    It has my recommendation. Good for gaming as its a rolling release with all the new stuff to boot.

  • What’s the worst piece of technology you’ve ever owned?
  • Oh, remember the good old Nexus 7. Had only a fraction of its performance 1-2 years down the line...

    Hahaha. Shit, I didn't even get that far before the touch digitalizer broke. Maybe 8 months in and dead.

    I got mad because my mom bought it in the US. Didn't sell in my country. What a piece of shit.

    Edit: It was made by ASUS!

  • Is it practically impossible for a newcomer selfhost without using centralised services, and get DDOSed or hacked?
  • The web browser doesn't care if the application is behind one, two or three rproxies. If I can still get to your application and guess your password or exploit a known vulnerability in your application then it's game over.

    Right!?

    Your castle can have many walls of protection but if you leave the doors/ports open, people/traffic just passes through.

  • Windows 11 is now automatically enabling OneDrive folder backup without asking permission
  • Wtf!

    Good thing I use to debloat windows 10 on a local account and got rid of onedrive before it could wreck havok so.

    But got to be honest, Far as long as I can remember, I always had backup of important data. Encryption - client side if off to the cloud.

    Shit I'm so old that I prefer my music on HDD instead of using streaming services.

    Using Linux nowadays too BTW.

  • Ex-OpenAI star Sutskever shoots for superintelligent AI with new company
  • Call me skeptical, but haven't you guys watched Terminator 2?

    These guy will end up exploding their own facility with a hand detonator, when skynet becomes our overlords. You want to join that crowd?

    I'm always going to Selfhosted my shit. Tell you that right now.

  • ‘AI is reliant on mass surveillance’ and we should be cautious, warns head of messaging app
  • I use „tasks“ for that. When i prepare to go grocery shopping I go to my fridge, open the completed „shopping“ tasks list and uncomplete what is empty. I then complete them again in the mall. Of course the list is hosted on my server.

    A man of culture I see.

    Selfhosted task list. There is where we stand united my friend.

  • How do I change Traefik (v2.11) password to the dashboard.

    I have forgot the password to the dashboard and want to change it.

    How do I go about to change it? I tried to hash another in the terminal using apache-utils2, then to paste (the new password) in "the middleware.traefik-auth.basic auth.users=" Section of the compose file. Didn't work.

    I restarted the container to no avail, even removed the container and spun up another. Nothing worked.

    Is it really that hard to change password in traefik?

    Any hint or advise is welcome, although I really want to access the dashboard via https.

    Thanks!
