That great, thanks for the info. I was able to get Wireguard setup in unraid but they make it pretty easy, so I didn’t have a problem. I just didn’t think about connecting to the entire network, not just the server.
Yeah I know some of those words…
I’m still a newb but I’ll have a look at that link, thanks!
Well, I didn’t realize that was an option to be honest, lol. I am having some issues with that box at the moment though so having a pi or my router acting as the gateway appealed to me with it’s longer uptime
Most services are on the unraid box. But I had a pi running Pi-hole for a long time (switched to adguardhome) and wanted that separate from the main server in case it went down. Pis boot up a lot faster than my server hardware and then you still need to start the array and mount drives. Having AGH on a Pi as primary DNS means minimal internet outages caused by my tinkering. I was given the 4 and put it in a really cool case that can fit a M.2 or 2.5" SSD and boot from it. So that is NextcloudPi and AGH. The 3 is because my 3d printer is nowhere near a LAN connection and 3 has WiFi. The 4 is sitting next to my router. We won’t mention the 1B I’ve been messing with too…
That’s looks handy. Thanks!
I ran Pi-hole for years. Switched to adguardhome running on 2 servers (primary and secondary) with AGH sync keeping the two instances identical. I like the UI better, dns rewrites, and the ability to simply block services entirely with a single click.
Not a bad idea. I get picky about aesthetics though. Dumb, I know. But I’ll give it a try. Just seems silly to me that default launchers can’t manage editing the dang app shortcuts
edit: Samsungs OneUI launcher does not put the badge on a PWA. But I’m not sure I trust them any more than Nova at this point…
I haven’t found one that I like as much. My biggest hangup, and this is probably dumb, is the ability to edit the icons for PWAs so they don’t show the stupid browser icon that screams “I’m a web shortcut!!!”. I tried Hermit as a PWA/lite app replacement and Android just slaps the hermit badge on it instead. For whatever reason that annoys me enough to stick with Nova.
Immich and Duplicacy both run on my unraid server. Duplicacy just watches the Immich pics folder and backs that up nightly.
Have you looked at the contents of those md files? In addition to creating its own hexadecimal file name, it appends the text with a bunch of metadata info. If you were to then take that folder of notes to any other markdown editor like Obsidian, it would be a mess to organize. That is why I’m a stickler for file format agnosticism. There is no vendor lock in and more importantly, no manipulation of the text filenames or contents.
Screenshot of my phone copy of the Obsidian vault directory as an example:
I’d rather backup a stack of plain text files, personally. So Obsidian for me.
Not every one stores the files as plain text files in markdown format like Obsidian. Logseq does I believe, but Joplin stores it all in database files which require an export should you decide to leave that app in favor of a other. With Obsidian you just point the new app at the folders full of .md files and away you go. That was the main selling point for me.
Dang, that’s too bad. It really is the best alternative out there.
Can’t link directly to the plugin, but the github page for it is here
Acreom Not FOSS yet, but on their road map. So I’m keeping an eye on it. Still plain markdown files at its core. One deal breaker for me is that they require a login for Mobile app, at least Android. Which makes no sense to me. They advertise “local first” and “no account required” on their site, yet you can’t use the mobile app without signing into their service. If they ever stop being silly about that part, I may take another look. Their task management and to-do is better than anything I’ve found in Obsidian to date.
No problem. If you do ever want to get it running I believe it’s in the RunTipi store. That solution is similar to Yunohost in that it aims to make standing up a server with several services easy and available with a “single” click. I tried it and it’s pretty neat. Only thing I didn’t like is how updates to the apps themselves were handled.
The app is not. That said, since it’s literally a front end for markdown files, the file format is universal and can be opened on anything with a text editor. No conversion or export needed.
I know some folks won’t use it if it’s not FOSS, and I respect that decision. For me there isn’t an open source alternative that is as good. Joplin stores your data in an SQL file, that’s a deal breaker for me. Logseq seems to be so outline/task oriented that I’ve not been able to use it the way I want to.
Yep, it’s in the community apps store for free, though highly recommend throwing some money at the dev if you find it to be useful. I’m just barely scratching the service and it’s pretty dang good.
I have my Immich library backed up to Backblaze B2 via Duplicacy. That job runs nightly. I also have a secondary sync to Nextcloud running on another server. That said, I need another off prem backup and will likely run a monthly job to my parents house either via manually copying to an external disk then taking it over or setting up a Pi or other low power server and a VPN to do it remotely.
Not self hosted, but Tabby is the closest I’ve found. But I still don’t like it as much as Termius. And from what other, more experienced people have said, Tabby is bloated, requiring way more system resources than a terminator emulator app should.
Also, I asked a related question here if you want to read some other suggestions.
