  • How do you document your setup?

    Jump

  • I don't like Ansible, other tools can be easier to use. But I don't want to recommend something concrete.

    Which ones do you like to work with? (Even though it's not a recommendation ;) I've only dabbled in Ansible so far and found it overkill for most of the things I do, but maybe one of yours isn't?

  • That's what I use it for as well. Updating 7+ VMs is no fun. With Ansible? No worries.

  • That very same, yup. You might know my song:

    "Imagine all the people /Living life in shells."

    Jump

  • But as a result you’ll have a self-documented configuration-as-a-code that will allow you to scale your setup as you need. Reproducing something won’t require reading your notes, remembering your actions etc.

    Until you realise that

    • you don't really need to scale a homelab that much
    • if something breaks, you just want to quickly fix it manually because "doing the Ansible" is more of a pain
    • now idempotency and documentation-as-code is out of the window. ;)

    (I'm being tongue-in-cheek here. I don't doubt this may work for you, but it takes much more discipline than I have.)

  • Yup, sorry guys, that was me.

  • I'm not. It's just... why can't you play with penguins like the other boys?

  • I just need to prove it.

    Oh, no. You forgot the MAGA upgrade downgrade to conservatism: "Feelings trump facts. I get to claim and believe the most baseless, ludicrous shit out there without any expectation of proof or even consistency with my other baseless claims and beliefs."

  • If by "getting" music you mean "self-host stuff you already own": Navidrome is an obvious choice, with Tempus for Android clients. It's ridiculously low on resources, rich in features and quite pretty.

  • Nice setup! I particularly like the kitchenowl deployment - it's such an amazing tool and relatively unknown.

    One suggestion: the title header says "Family homepage", yet the page contains admin tools that none other than you will ever use. I noticed that all this "admin clutter" was so off-putting that it kept others from actually using the dashboard. I've therefore created another homepage instance that showcases user-facing services only. It makes the UI much cleaner - and users more likely to actually find the services they may be looking for.

  • This RAM shortage is getting out of hand.

  • Jellyfin critical security update - This is not a joke

    Jump

  • It's not this or that. Security comes in layers. So while I would assume that the Jellyfin developers do their best to secure their application, I acknowledge the fact that bugs do exist and that Jellyfin is developed in and for hobbyist contexts, and thus not scrutinised and pentested for vulnerabilities in the way software meant for professional environments would be. Therefore I'll add an extra layer of security by putting it behind a VPN that only whitelisted clients can access. If a vulnerability is detected, I can be sure it hasn't already been exploited to compromise my server because we're all "among friends" there.
