pivpn is glutun free.

The latest really improves things space wise and cleans up better. Single instance here for almost a month. About 50-60 subscription’s and am at 2gb db size

14 years here and did the same. Deleted it all. And have not been back on reddit since jul 1. Im pretty happy with lemmy so far. And yea it feels like old reddit. Time will tell

Can you share notes/collab yet?

Do they allow collab yet. Thats my killer feature need

Look at vacumn command. Also dbeaver is a teally good gui tool. Right now there is one table thats the main cause (i think its called activity but dont quote me on that there was a post about it)

That table is mainly for debugging as it logs every action in activitypub your instance does. I truncate it once a week and vacumn it (shrinks the disk space used). Caution. You must shut down lemmy before doing so. I run containers so i stop all except postgres and clean it up.

This is where i am leaning too

I use both plex and navidrome server side love them both

Love medicat

If you are already a subscriber it stays at 14.99. Its a glitch. You’re grandfathered to existing cost

But. If you are a new subscriber then yea you’re screwed.

I went from rolling my own (proxmox then unraid) to synology 1019(2). I dont have the time to manage and tweak boxes anymore and the synos just work. 200 tb total and happy as a clam

Get a dell or hp sff business pc off ebay for like 150 bucks. Great little machines to play with linux

2011ish mac mini

from what im reading 2011 minis are “problematic” installing linux. not for the faint of heart

Also dm me if you get stuck. I wrote the latest docs revision and used to mod /r/lazylibrarian

Its in a pretty good state right now. Docker setup is a breeze.

What makes it easier for me is i dont try to integrate with calibre. It has a setting to copy new books to calibre autoimport dir

What year? Likely need to setup proxmox or similiar. Search your year and model number and linux. Plenty of tuts out there.

Im running ubuntu server on a 2018 mini

Calibre web easily sends to kindle and kobo. Works well

Same but i add lazylibrarian for mags

Ugh. Running coax and transceiver taps to old banyan vines networks. Nightmare fuel

Youre good. Self hosting is what you define it as. No one elses opinion of it matters.

I run a combo of homelab apps and vps apps.

All that matters is if it works for you
