+1 for Avelon, my favourite Lemmy client!

I just have all my services exposed through reverse proxy with whatever authentication they have on their webpage. I see most people using VPN which I know is the more secure option but I like the zero setup of just typing in the name of the service I want to go to and just having it work. Is there a better way to secure this?

This is my favourite app for Lemmy and I never hear it mentioned?!

Wondering what software you’re running to have all the storage managed and then your containers and things on top? Is it all on the 730XD?

I thought this might be the case. I’ve seen people say a couple GB of RAM and a few cores is enough for it. It would only be a personal instance for myself and really no other users so I would hope the usage would be low?

As to the SD card situation I’m yet to do this but my plan is to move at least the OS and containers onto the 64GB of internal EMMC and then probably use an external SSD for some mass storage but I’m still not sure whether that’s the best way to do that.

I had been looking at buying a Dell server like a R720 but I just can’t fit that anywhere especially with the noise and the power draw isn’t great either…

I ended up using caddy-docker-proxy because the vanilla Caddyfile method was giving me some trouble with my internal docker hostnames. This container just lets you add some labels to your other containers in your docker compose file and then works out the proxy for you, so long as you’ve made the appropriate DNS records.

I had a look through my bookmarks and found this great writeup. This goes into a lot of detail and talks about a lot of services which might be a bit confronting. Honestly, searching for smaller piece by piece guides for installing this service or that service and slowly building out your projects is a good way to go.

This is Heimdall. You can add your apps and links to them and then link their API to show statuses.

I have some custom CSS on top of it which I found with a couple of quick searches.

Apple Music, I listen to lots of unreleased music and iCloud Music Library works so much better than Spotify Local Files. Also just works with all my devices. I don’t love the UI sometimes but it is improving with every update. I don’t really use new music recommendations often but whenever I make a station I usually find it’s ok?
