  • Stuff for kids?

    Jump

  • I would consider jellyfin + ersatztv. ersatztv lets you create "live" channels and define your own programming. Instead of the kids having a free for all of being any to stream any of the media you give them access to, you instead give them access to a few channels.

    One of the nice things about it, is the channel can go "offline" at certain times. So, if you have a strict bedtime of 8pm, the shows will literally finish at 8pm, and the channel will stop. No more "let me watch on more video!"

    I have several channels like:

    • Cartoons
    • Education
    • Sing alongs
    • History

    that they can switch between, but that is all I give them.

  • SSL certificates for things inside the lab

    Jump

  • My DNS provider doesn't have an API for setting DNS, which makes doing dns CNAME validation manual.

    Therefore, what I do is:

    • Have a public nginx server and point public DNS records to it, then generate certs against it
    • Pull those certs to my internal nginx server in my lan
    • Use pi.hole to set internal DNS records (so jellyfin.mydomain.com points to 10.10.110.23 within my network)

  • Nested comments are super slow

    I agree with this. I wrote a lemmy reader for emacs gnus and fetching the comments really leaves a lot to be desired! In fact, I'd say a lot of the Lemmy APIs leave a lot to be desired (no pagination with a cursor!)

  • I love this!

  • Self Host Personal Health Record (PHR)

    Jump

  • Mere was interesting, but it runs entirely offline in a browser (which is pretty cool). But, this means all data lives in your browser's localStorage (or indexdb), which would make it hard to sync between devices.

  • Self Host Personal Health Record (PHR)

    Jump

  • Sure. But I'd also not host it publicly on the Internet, just on my local lan!

  • NetworkManager 1.56 Released with New Features and Improvements

    Jump

  • I’m curious what is different. I already import WireGuard .conf files and turn them on/off with nmcli

  • Exploring Options to add NVR

    Jump

  • I have a LaView LV-N9808C8E. It is quite a bit outdated, so I would not recommend that model, as the web interface requires Silverlight and the iOS app doesn't work on the latest iOS.

    BUT, it is basically an offline NVR with 1TB harddrive that records continuously from my 6 ip cameras (all wired with PoE directly to the NVR). I think this model supports up to 8 cameras.

    Then, on my home server I run frigate with a Coral USB to pull the rtsp streams and do object detection. When objects are detected, the screenshots are sent to Home Assistant for alerts.

    This gives me good real time notifications and nothing is exposed to the internet or any 3rd parties.

    If I want to watch real time camera feeds, and I can use my wireguard vpn + vlc to watch an individual camera via rtsp (I used to be able to use the iOS LaView app when on my vpn, but it no longer works). If I need to go back and look at recordings, since the LaView NVR is continuously recording, I can go back and pull video directly from the device for the last few days.

  • Self-Host Weekly (30 January 2026)

    Jump

  • This is where tools like bubblewrap (bwrap) come in. For opencode, I heavily limit what it can see and what is has access to. No access to my ssh keys or aws credentials or anything else.

  • Sources to purchase mp3s?

    Jump

  • They also sell flac. Bandcamp is my primary but 7digital is great for popular stuff.

  • Plex now want to SELL your personal data

    Jump

  • I typically use split routing BUT also have dns set to my pihole, both so dns works for my internal services and for tracker blocking. That causes a big issue. Also I wish WireGuard would just handle failures better. Even when it can’t connect, it seems to break networking (at least on iOS)

  • It’s a side car service for navidrome so you already need to have navidrome (or other subsonic compatible server) running.

  • Garage - S3-compatible Object Storage alternative to Minio

    Jump

  • How does this handle IAM policies? At work we have a blackened that relies on S3 and IAM policies. For local development we use minio as it seamlessly handles that. Does garage?

  • I’m a big fan of Jellyfin. I would say it is easily family approved. That is for my family in my household who is using it on our home Wi-Fi.

    But I am not about to expose it publicly. I have WireGuard set up on my immediate family’s devices and that is mostly ok (until you get on a public Wi-Fi that fails because you haven’t gone through their portal and can’t because the vpn is on, or you are on an airplane’s Wi-Fi with no internet trying to watch their movies and it doesn’t work until you turn off the vpn). Explaining this to my wife has been a nonstop battle.

    I’d like it open it up to my siblings families, especially because I have the ersatztv plug-in to create approved child stations, but so many smart tvs and devices don’t support a vpn. How have others handled that situation?

  • How has immich been compared to photoprism? My issue with immich is that new releases kept breaking things. Has it finally stabilized? Lts are super important to me as I don’t want to spend every weekend reconfiguring services for my family.

  • This costs me not just time, but money. I know it isn’t much but is really a big pain. The biggest issue is that the app and recommendation algorithm isn’t going to be useful with 20 songs. You really need 1000s of songs to actually use the app…

    Jump

  • Have you tried it with a Roku? My pi.hole blocks most things, but I haven't yet tried to completely block it from the Internet. In the past, I've had to allow some domains through my pi.hole or things would be completely broken, but that hasn't happened in a while...

    I suppose I'd have to occasionally unblock it to get updates to the jellyfin app, which is doable.
