It’s self hosting. Is it home lab? Nope. Though plenty of people use VPS as a way to terminate their VPN connections and such.

$28 a year??? Woah.

My recommendation (sorry for the delay in response) would be not to use it as a base. Use the image as such. It has in-built features for screenshots, for using puppeteer, etc. So just use those. Any issues with that approach?

By the way, if you get XVfb running for puppeteer (a little further down in the readme), let me know.

Try using this following project as your base image before throwing puppeteer on it (or use the inbuilt functionality to take screenshots). It includes Jessie Frazelle’s seccomp profile. If you want nightmares, go read her blogpost about it. Otherwise just let it be and follow the setup guide in the readme of this project -

You wanna know a fun way to do this?

GitHub (and I think Gitlab too) supports you running their runner within your own infra. It’s literally a binary that needs permissions and space. Then, you can tell your git repo to use that runner to run docker compose and as part of the “build” process, deploy you container to the same or an in-network machine.

This is not secure, it’s probably going to involve a lot of hard coding of local IPs or server names etc. But you can make it work.

I use this way to get a Win11 PC to run some regular containers on itself. Works like a charm.

I agree with others that you need to break down these requirements into multiple apps. I use FreshRSS for feeds and it has a bunch of mobile app integrations.

And the most recent update of Linkwarden seems to have a ton of features that might be worth your while, including PDF, screenshot, and Readable caching.

So… Amazon (the latest big name, not the only one)

Now that you’ve dubbed OP a tech person…

Hey OP, can you help me fix my printer? It’s only printing “RED RUM RED RUM” for some reason.

Thanks!

So do you run a tailscale exit node on one of the public clouds or a VPS provider like DigitalOcean?

Nice app! I do have an android device sitting around doing nothing. Will use this app if I ever get into it!

Ah, I’m not going there yet. OpenWRT is an eventual goal. But right now I’m stuck with devices that do not support it. I’m ok with alternate solutions.

huh. Never thought about public pihole servers. So nice of those folks running them.

I don’t understand how you’re saying you’ve stopped self-hosting VPN and are still using tailscale. Are you using their SaaS service? Does that allow you to set your own DNS? Do they have speed limits? Are they zero-logs?

I’d like to add to the voice about Memo. It’s very nice, stable, loads of features if you want them and actively growing.

I think of my “diary” as a stream of consciousness. Thus Memo makes sense. It feels like a personal Twitter feed.

Tagging, photo upload, links. All that works great in Memo.

I use this almost every time I need to launch something on my Portainer setup. It’s not perfect but works like a charm to convert simpler docker runs into yaml files.

Hey on that 3tb thing… can I pick and choose folders or parts of folders from the backups?

Or, say, I want to move stuff around in folders… is that possible after the backup has reached them and is only visible to me through their web interface?

Dude it’s $3 an ounce. Totally worth it.

Wtf

Very Firewatch… love it!
