  • Gitea 1.22 is the last version to allow a transparent upgrade to Forgejo

    Jump

  • My question would be, if you're only archiving repos, why do you need a forge?A simple git clone <repo> to any your archival directory would be enough to store them, there's no need for you to use a forge software.

    Are there any other features of gitea you use?

  • The best Cloud backup in 2025?

    Jump

  • Yeah, it was $2.5/tb/month, now it's $4.1/tb/month.Still cheaper than backblaze's $6 which seems the only other option everyone suggests, so it'll have to do for the moment.

  • Should i selfhost?

    Jump

  • I'm assuming you mean updating every service, right?If you don't need anything new from a service you can just stay on the version you use for as long as you like as long as your services are not public.You could just install tailscale and connect everything inside the tailnet.From there you'll just need to update tailscale and probably your firewall, docker, and OS, or when any of the services you use receives a security update.

    I've lagged behind several versions of immich because I don't have time to monitor the updates and handle the breaking changes, so I just use a version until I have free time.Then it's just an afternoon of reading through the breaking changes, updating the docker file and config, and running docker compose pull && docker compose up -d.In theory there could be issues in here, that's were your backups come into place, but I've never had any issues.

    The rest of the 20+ services I have are just running there, because I don't need anything new from them. Or I can just mindlessly run the same compose commands to update them.

    There was only one or two times I had to actually go into some kind of emergency mode because a service suddenly broke and I had to spend a day or two figuring out what happened.

  • I'd say syncthing is not really a backup solution.If for some reason something happens to a file on one side, it'll also happen to the file on the other side, so you'll loose your "backup".Plus, what ensures you your friend won't be going around and snooping or making their own copies of your data.Use a proper backup software to send your data offsite (restic, borg, duplicati, etc) which will send it encrypted (use a password manager to set a strong and unique password for each backup)

    And follow the 3-2-1 rule MangoPenguin mentioned.Remember, this rule is just for data you can't find anywhere else, so just your photos, your own generated files, databases of the services you self-host, stuff like that. If you really want you could make a backup of hard to find media, but if you already have a torrent file, then don't go doing backup of that media.

  • Odin - a self-hosted FOSS streaming service.

    Jump

  • What do you mean jellyfin uses the *are suite?I have Jellyfin with any media in different directories as long as I try to match the format the documents mention.So, as long as I can get the media in any way I can just put it in any directory and it'll be added to the library.

    Is it similar with Odin? Or does it directly fetch the media from where you want to download it?

  • What’s your RSS solutions?

    Jump

  • FreshRSS has been amazing, as you said, other readers have other goals in mind and seems RSS is just an add-on.

    On Android's also there are no good clients, I've been using the PWA which is good enough.There are several extensions for mobile menu improvements, I have Smart Mobile Menu, Mobile Scroll Menu and Touch Control (it works great on Firefox, but not on brave, it's too sensitive there, so YMMV).

    There's also ReadingTime, but there are feeds which don't send the whole body of the post, so you might only see a 1minute read because of that.

    The extension AutoTTL processes the feeds and makes them update only when it's more likely for them to get new items instead of every X minutes configured by FreshRSS.Still there's a problem when the MaxTTL happens, all feeds are allowed to be updated and you might hit some rate limits, so I developed a rate limiter. Still there's a problem with AutoTTL because how extensions are loaded and with the http code reported by FreshRSS.

    I found this project which receive the emails of newsletters and turns them into a RSS feed, I've only used it for one feed and I've only received one entry, not sure if the newsletter is that bad or if the site struggles to receive/show them. Haven't tried something it.https://github.com/leafac/kill-the-newsletter

    There's also this repo linking a lot of sites with feeds, and some sites which don't offer feeds directly are provided via feedburner (which seems it's a Google service and wikipedia says "primarily for monetizing RSS feeds, primarily by inserting targeted advertisements into them", so use those at your own discretion) https://github.com/plenaryapp/awesome-rss-feeds

  • archivebox alternative with easier to read file and subfolder structure

    Jump

  • Maybe you could submit an issue to the repo to include a way to change the format of the saved folders.(I'm thinking something similar on how immich allows to change some formats)

    I'm seeing in my instance the names seem like some sort of timestamp, not sure if the code uses them in a meaningful way, so probably the solution would be to create symlinks with the name of the site or some other format while keeping the timestamp so the rest of the code can still expect it.

  • Hardware recs for newb? Please.

    Jump

  • I bought this one and it's been wonderful to run +20 services. A few of those are Forgejo (github replacement), Jellyfin (Plex but actually self-hosted), immich (Google Photos replacement), frigate (to process one security camera).(Only Immich does transcoding, jellyfin already has all my media preprocessed from the GPU of my laptop)

    I bought it bare-bone since I already had the RAM and an SSD, plus I wasn't to use windows. During this year I've bought another SSD and a HDD.

    https://aoostar.com/products/aoostar-r7-2-bay-40t-nas-storage-amd-ryzen-7-5825u-mini-pc8c-16t-up-to-4-5ghz-with-w11-pro-ddr4-ram-2-m-2-nvme-%E5%A4%8D%E5%88%B6

    I bought it on amazon, but you could buy it from the seller, although I'd recommend amazon to not deal with the import and have an easy return policy.

  • How to access host when using gluetun in docker?

    Jump

  • Found the issue '-UFW also blocks traffic between docker and host.I had to add these rules 

     
        
ufw allow proto tcp from 172.16.0.0/12 to 172.16.0.0/12 port 80  
ufw allow proto tcp from 172.16.0.0/12 to 172.16.0.0/12 port 443

    How to access host when using gluetun in docker?

  • Immich and raw file rotation

    Jump

  • Why not report it in the repo?

  • Omnivore Alternatives? [SOLVED FOR ME]

    Jump

  • Maybe FreshRSS with some extensions?I saw a recent commit to fire an event when saving a favorite, so probably you can get an extension to send the link to something like archivebox for the pages you favorite.

    I've just fiddled with an already created extension, but they seem fairly simple to create your own easily.Of course you can inject JS so you could make it more complex if you want.

  • What do you use to private watch YouTube?

    Jump

  • With invidious and in FreshRSS I use the youtube extension to use the embedded video player, you just need update this part of the code https://github.com/FreshRSS/Extensions/blob/master/xExtension-YouTube/extension.php#L153-L163It easy just to replace for this: 

     php
        
    public function getHtmlContentForLink(FreshRSS_Entry $entry, string $link): string
    {
        $domain = 'www.youtube.com';
        if ($this->useNoCookie) {
            $domain = 'www.youtube-nocookie.com';
        }
        $domain = 'invidious.personal.com';
        $params = 'quality=dash';
        $url = str_replace('//www.youtube.com/watch?v=', '//'.$domain.'/embed/', $link);
        $url = str_replace('http://', 'https://', $url);
        $url = $url . '?' . $params;

        return $this->getHtml($entry, $url);
    }

    The only change is to use $domain = 'invidious.personal.com';And add the parameter quality=dash

    Seems there's also this one https://github.com/tunbridgep/freshrss-invidiousbut haven't tried it

  • Do you have any advice, recommendations, and/or tips for someone wanting to host a public/non-personal Lemmy instance?

    Jump

  • I don't think there are services like that, since usually this means deploying and destructing an instance, which takes a few minutes (if you just turn off the instance you still get billed).Probably the best option would be to have a snapshot, which costs way less than the actual instance, and create from it each day or so yo run on the images since it was last destroyed.

    This is kind of what I do with my media collection, I process it on my main machine with a GPU, and then just serve it from a low-power one with Jellyfin.

  • "Backup" your fedi account, when not self hosting?

    Jump

  • IIRC this was already addressed and should be automatic.There was an issue specifically mentioning GDPR and the devs implemented a way to automatically delete the data of an account within the given time.

    It's not a GDPR request in itself, but AFAIK a normal delete account request should be compliant... INAL

  • What would tools/services would you recommend for hosting without self hosting?

    Jump

  • Start by learning docker, you don't have to selfhost anything yet, just learn to run a container, specially to run automated stuff. Then learn to build the images and run docker compose.

    Also you could start checking any form or infrastructure as code. I usually hear about ansible and nixos.This helps having a way to redeploy your services in any hardware easily.

  • Browse FreshRSS like YouTube: "Youlag Theme for FreshRSS"

  • Does it apply it to all feeds? Or can it detect what feeds are actually Youtube ones?

    Is there a way to hide dependabot commits in the history of a repo?

  • Cloud storage/backup

    Jump

  • I use rclone and duplicati depending on the needs of the backup.

    For long term I use duplicati, it has a GUI and you can upload it to several places (mines are spread between e2 and drive).You configure the backend, password for encryption, schedule, and version retention.

    rclone, with the crypt submodule, you use it to mount your backups as am external drive, so you need to manually handle the actual copy of the data into it, plus versioning and retention.

  • Caddy and forgejo

    Jump

  • I can't give you the technical explanation, but it works.My Caddyfile only something like this

     
        
@forgejo host forgejo.pe1uca
handle @forgejo {
	reverse_proxy :8000
}

    and everything else has worked properly cloning via ssh with git@forgejo.pe1uca:pe1uca/my_repo.git

    My guess is git only needs the host to resolve the IP and then connects to the port directly.
