Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

You know, I think I did the thing I always do and forget how bad the idle power for Ryzen cpus are due to how they're architected.
Like, my home server is a 10850k, which is a CPU known for using 200+w... except that, of course, at idle/normal background loads it's sitting at more like 8-15w. I did some tweaking to tell it to both respect it's TDP and also adjusting turbo boost to uh, don't, but still: it's shockingly efficient after fiddling.
I wouldn't have expected a 5500u to sit at 30w under normal loads, but I suppose that depends on the load?
Well it's an APU, so it's running pretty much everything. Running any normal network services pretty much means it's in use.
In the context of having a normal light bulb back in the day on 24/7, it's still more efficient, but there are other options out there than use much less power is all I was saying. If you're heavily transcoding, I don't think it matters at all.
Right, but you're pulling way more power than the homeserver I'm running is, and at 10-15w it's doing frigate + openvino based (on the igpu) identification on 4 cameras, usually 2 jellyfin streams at any given time, 4 VMs, home assistant, and ~80 other containers plus a couple of on-host services for NAS duties (smb, nfs, ftp, afp, nginx, etc.)
I was just surprised that a Ryzen U-series chip would be worse re. power usage.
