Oh, sounds pretty cool, I have never looked into that.

Hell yeah! Still got Pinepods on my to-host list.

Google calendar? In the selfhosting community? Bold statement😄

You can have the best of both worlds - scheduled auto updates on a time that usually works for you.

With growing complexity, there are so many components to update, it's too easy to miss some in my experience. I don't have everything automated yet (in fact, most updates aren't) but I definitely strive towards it.

I think auto update is perfectly fine, just check out what kind of versioning the devs are using and pin the part of the version that will introduce breaking changes.

Did that as well a while ago and generally it's working pretty good, some services had the possibility to migrate existing accounts to authentik even. But even though it's been pretty reliable so far I'm hesitant to migrate my more critical services behind another runtime dependency.

Cool! Home Assistant has it and I can imagine Nextcloud as well but those are overkill just for that.

Don't have a good guide, but in addition on the thing you plan to selfhost yourself you need to decide where it's supposed to run. In a rented VM from a hoster? There are several ones where you can get a decent VM for a few bucks each month.

Nowadays, Docker (or containers in general) are very popular, as an alternative to directly installing services on the vm. They make many things easier, but it's another thing to learn about when you're just starting - fortunately, there's plenty of guides etc!

I don't know all of the tools, do you mean the tor relay?

On Android or postmarketOS? Very cool regardless!

 

I know for many of us every day is selfhosting day, but I liked the alliteration. Or do you have fixed dates for maintenance and tinkering?

Let us know what you set up lately, what kind of problems you currently think about or are running into, what new device you added to your homelab or what interesting service or article you found.

This post is proudly sent from my very own Lemmy instance that runs at my homeserver since about ten days. So far, it's been a very nice endeavor.

I think the only thing where you can mix CPU architectures without much problems and doing something meaningful with would be a Kubernetes Cluster, e.g. install K3S across the machines.

As others mentioned, the 3rd gen CPUs are probably using quite a lot of power. I'd get something to measure how much the whole machines draw from the wall and decide if you're fine with that (measure while there's actually something going over the network interface and some r/w operations).

The CPUs should be powerful enough to run most classic selfhosted apps.
