I also regularly tear down my servers and see how fast I can set it up again. Keep my deployment scripts up to date.

That’s what I should do to and I keep telling myself that I’ll do it next month 🙈



I would suggest you to use Node Red as backend and Home Assistant as frontend. With Node Red you have a very robust system that survives years of updates without problem (I’ve been running for…mmm…maybe 7/8 years and no update have ever broken anything, while I read all over stories of Home Assistant breaking over updates). Node Red has node for about anything, you can make your home automation product/brand independent using MQTT, so Node Red collects all the sensors/actuators and sends to HA what’s needed. If tomorrow you’ll change a device, all you have to do is connect a couple of nodes and use the same MQTT topic as you did with the previous device (I don’t know if I explained myself…sorry!) If tomorrow you’ll want to switch from HA to something else, it will be pretty easy with Node Red in the back! All of this, clearly, IMHO!


I’m sorry but I don’t have any suggestion about dockerized email server, I just came here to ask you if you’ve fully evaluated to run your own mail server. I’m not saying you shouldn’t, just to be careful. Email server is the one thing that I would never self host, there’s too much at stake, IMHO.


Shouldn’t me more convenient for bigger company where there already is a good and big IT department? Sure they need hardware and to allocate people dedicated to that, but cloud storage is costs too.


At work I name them after Greeks gods, at home after Alps peaks.



when was the last good music recommendation you found on myspace

I was still talking about r/selfhosted!


Oh come on, that’s not true and you know it. There’s still good people there (in r/selfhosted) posting good stuff.

Edit: specified that I’m talking about r/selfhosted and not MySpace.


It’s not an obsession! Simply if all the good poster/commenter that are there would come here, this place would be better!



I’ve read that Reddit was recovering them all. Are yours still gone?


Because Lemmy has about 0.something % of the users that Reddit has and I still find useful some subreddit.


Post per day seams steady at about 30/40, comment per day seams to have dropped from 3/400 to 250/300, I would have expected a great fall.


r/selfhosted is still rising, WTF? Come to Lemmy!!!
Hi all! I used to be a daily r/selfhosted lurker and a bit active user. Since the Reddit saga I thought that r/selfhosted would be one of the first and bigger community to move to Lemmy due to the IT knowledge of all of their users and the sensitivity about self host/privacy/open source, but I see that not only the community is still all there, but [it's rising](https://subredditstats.com/r/selfhosted). :( That really makes me sad. How can we convince the mods there to move people here? Is it allowed to talk about Lemmy on Reddit or do we risk of being banned?

My homelab gives me power!!!

Oh, you’re talking about electricity 😁 about 70 Watts: (60W Proxmox server (OMV, Node Red, Domoticz, Home Assistant, and some other container that I don’t even remember 🙈😆), 6W Fujitsu Futro S720 for OPNsense and some Watts for a couple of switches).


Well, that’s quite something for that pour small CPU! 😆


What are you running on your S920? I’m using mine for OPNsense and Node Red both virtualized in Proxmox and they run ok
