I selfhost audiobookshelf for all my podcast needs.

It's discord like interface and I plan on only having selfhosted related content on it, mostly just for people to help one another in a more "well known" way of discord and real time chatting.

Sure, will test out today or tomorrow.

Something close to last week or week before.

My problem is I only use external minitor and turn off laptop monitor, so when I also turn off the external monitor and then turn it back on hyprlamd just has a stroke.

I agree with you, they serve different needs.

That's also where your argument from before comes in, as I don't use matrix. Never had an use for it, that's where the conflict for me comes in not wanting to create an account on a platform I don't personally use.

Mattermost I will have an use for personally and with friends, while matrix for me is unnedded and overkill for my needs, that's why I didn't go with matrix, neither on an already established server, or self host it.

I feel like matrix is an overkill for something like this personally, because I wan't to be motly only used for quick help with peple around the globe and matrix is more generally used to communicate with a huge amount of people around the globe.

Main reason also why I didn't go with matrix is because in my eyes it's still inmature and requires a good amount of maintenance, for what I think of as a simply a quick and dirty server to quickly help people in a more real time setting.

I don't mind people not liking the fact that it's a mattermost server and not wanting to sing up only for this community, it's their choice after all.

For me, the plasma 6 implementation misses nothing. Multiple monitors work with no issues, and every program I could run works with no issues.

My main problem is that none of the tiling wayland compositors ( hyprland for example ) work well with multiple monitors. My usecase is to keepcmy laptop's monitor in clamshell mode and just use the external one, but I tend to if I leave for a long time to turn off the monitor since plasma can't turn it off the output for powersaving by itself for weird reasons and plasma 6 kwin will corectly start up on the monitor if I turn it on.

Compositors like hyprland for soke reason won't and will ontly show blank screen and not even allow me to change to another tty, effectively freezing my system.

But I got used to the way plasma works, made it work similary to a tiling wm for the virtual desktops and placing speficifc windows in specific virtual desktop and stuff like that, so I get the benefits of a good stacking (floating) wayland compositor with robust virtual desktops support.

Minimal, I have to force myself to check the servers for updates atleast once a week.

Main problem for me is I automated podman and docker updates with their respective autoupdate mechanisms and use ntfy for push notifications so I know if a service stops working and I had an update recently on it that it's an update issue.

Also have uptime monitor wih uptime kuma to monitor state of my services to catch them not working before I do, also ntfy for push notifications.

Also have grafana+prometheus seted up on my biggest server for monitoring and alerting with alertmanager+mail to get notifications on even more errors.

So in general I only have to worry about occasional once every few months error and updates of the host system (debian).

Yea, matrix is too much for that I need, an dhave seted up a mattermost server for my needs.

Planning to create a selfhosted team on it for the people of this communitty to talk real time about selfhosting and help each other fix issues in a more timelly and easier manner.

Update: Ended up setting up a mattermost server.

Main reason cause it's the easiest to setup as it only need 2 containers.

Edit: Might create a specific team just for selfhosters where people from this lemmy community can talk about posts there, or generally about selfhosting

Edit 2: I have created "Casual selfhosters" team on my mattermost instance, will create a post either later today or tommorow promoting it, but for now will leave an invite link here so feel free to join in and talk about selfhosting!
