Is anyone aware of any self hosted portfolio tracking software?

Something like TradingView or Yahoo Finance, where I can input my trades, and track tickers.

I recently found out that you can get up to 3 free .eu.cc domain from GNAME, which also claims that you can renew for free when its within 90 days of expiring. So I got one to check it out.

Obviously, the next step is making one of my local machines act as the target destination for any queries to the address, so it becomes accessible for the wider web. I'm not entirely sure, however, what to configure on GNAME (there's the option to setup A and AAAA records, which I suppose I should just point to my IP, but there's also CNAME, TXT, NS, SRV and what configurations/programs my local server (rPi 3) needs to have running besides a webserver (Apache2 or Nginx)

My intent is to have it run a single-user fediverse server, possibly friendica, as it seems to have the best support for seeing all sorts of APub posts. If that proves too heavy for my old pi, I'll try one of the lightweight APub alternatives

I know I'll also need to do some configurations on my router, so I'd appreciate help on this, too.

Hi all, my Unifi Doorbell just died after only 4 years of service. I've been pretty disheartened with them lately, other products haven't lived up to the company's promise.

So I'm not looking to replace my networking stack yet, but I am looking for a doorbell camera. I only have the Unifi machine, but I also have an extensive docker/kubernetes stack, and mostly I want to use it with Home Assistant.

Any recommendations? Open to software, hardware, you name it. I have a few other Unifi cameras too, if they could be brought into the fold while I slowly migrate, I'd be interested. Thanks!

I am trying to increase the upload limit on my matrix server. I would like to push it to 500MB, but it keeps failing the upload past ~180MB. There is very little information about the failure, the client just says "Unkown error", nginx says "error 499", which means the client disconnected to quickly. Additionally, trying to recreate the failure with curl just results in a success, so the issue seems to be with the client. I tried with element-web, element desktop, element x and cinny and they all have this issue.

I run a continuwuity server on a Raspberry Pi 4B, behind two nginx reverse proxies and a rathole tunnel. Continuwuity, and the two reverse proxies run inside docker compose projects. Here is my architecture :

Of course, I made sure to increase the upload limit in Continuwuity :

max_request_size = 500000000

And in both nginx instances :

client_max_body_size 500M;

From what I can gather from other issues on the internet, it seems it could be related to timeout errors. Although they all seem to be talking about 2-8Gb files, I am probably running much weaker hardware than they do, so it checks out.

I tried setting the following values in both nginx instances :

location / {
    proxy_connect_timeout       600;
    proxy_send_timeout          600;
    proxy_read_timeout          600;
    send_timeout                600;
    proxy_next_upstream         off;
    proxy_buffering             off;

    proxy_pass ...;
}

And setting timeout values in Continuwuity :

client_receive_timeout = 75
client_request_timeout = 180
client_response_timeout = 120
client_shutdown_timeout = 10

Since that didn't have any effect, I bumped them by 20x and 40x respectively :

location / {
    proxy_connect_timeout       18000;
    proxy_send_timeout          18000;
    proxy_read_timeout          18000;
    send_timeout                18000;
    proxy_next_upstream         off;
    proxy_buffering             off;

    proxy_pass ...;
}

client_receive_timeout = 3000
client_request_timeout = 7200
client_response_timeout = 4800
client_shutdown_timeout = 400

But that did not have any effect. I also looked at modifying element-web's settings, but there doesn't seem to be anything related to timeouts.

I also saw that encrypted vs. unencrypted rooms might have an effect, but I got ~190MB max in encrypted rooms and ~180MB in unencrypted rooms.

Finally, I tried using curl :

curl -X POST https://server.domain/_matrix/media/v3/upload -H "Authorization: Bearer <token>" -H "Content-Type application/octet-stream" --data @200mb.file
# success
# returns a mxc:// url
curl -X POST https://server.domain/_matrix/client/v1/media/download/server.name/file_id -H "Authorization: Bearer <token>" -o 200mb_copy.file
# See that the two files are identical

I am at a loss. What can I do to solve this issue?

I only read about people using continuwuity and tuwunel, but apparently none are using conduit. When searching, I only find "hate" against conduit, but no actual reason why people prefer the fork, except some ominous comments stating that it is practically unmaintained (which is not true). I found that conduit has the majority of features implemented, except minor things like threads (which is still WIP, to be fair) and presence. Also, it is rock solid, only using minimal resources. It may be slow in development, taking a bit longer to implement a new feature, but not too much longer. Or am I missing something the others have to offer?

If you are running a conduit fork, what is your reason for leaving conduit, and if you are running conduit, why didn't you switch?

If it is not obvious: I mean compared to conduit and its forks, not synapse, ....

Recently I spent part of the weekend to build a small companion for Traefik. Beacon automatically scrapes the Host() part of Traefik rules and announces them via mDNS in the local network.

The idea is to use this in our greenhouse, hence the greenery in the name. Shooting for a small solar powered RPi Setup, and this gives me easy acces via local Wi-Fi e.g. for debugging or sensors/bridges.

I hope to spend some time around the ideas of air gapped/remote self hosting.

There are so many options to get started with self hosting that I feel myself stuck in the "paralysis of choice". For a novice, does anyone have a good resource for the equivalent of good/better/best paths that cover the "basics" (In my mind this is hosting images, music, video, connected home controls, search and email)?

Thinking something like first try path A, if you feel comfortable and your HW can handle A, then try path B, etc. I guess a it of a tutorial mode feeling where you get exposed to key boxing blocks initially and then you are released into the large open world on your own.

I know the advantage of this movement is the choice and the well distributed variety, but just feels hard to start.

I have an old laptop, an SFF workstation and a NAS to play with.

Any suggestions?

Edit: Thank you all for a very generous response. I knew this was a tough ask from the start because, by design, this area is vast and constantly evolving. A lot of great starting points here that I'm now considering.

Self-hosting journey update, and WordPress: latest development from a super-newbie

@selfhosted

I must recap as I set my instance to delete 2-weeks-old posts.

Months ago, I talked about my very first journey with self-hosting my digital services, including my website.
As I'm not very skilled with sysadmin stuff, I use a YunoHost installation with all its pros and cons.

Having severe accessibility needs (I'm totally blind) I have limited choices for what concerns CMS software with related extensions if any. So after months of exploration and test, I've come back home. To WordPress.

Last time I updated Fediverse about my experience, I was struggling with multisite network giving an unpleasant error in the non-main site, such as "too_many_redirects"
Making it short, I discovered that YunoHost doesn't let me run a multisite properly when installed in a subdomain such as blog.domain.tld
So I had forcefully to install it in the main domain, and a subdirectory such as domain.tld/wp

Now I'm concentrating on my theme, I will clone it with the plugin "CreateBlockTheme" then activate it network-wide.
I need a multisite for multilingual, as all current multilingual plugins have poor accessibility support, and are mostly paid.

Then I may need a new taxonomy registered to organize stories, the glossary plugin, SEO plugin, ActivityPub, and I should be all set!

The last, hard, challenge I have, is the fact that now my site runs into "domain.tld/permalink-post" for Italian, and "domain.tld/english" for English
The new one should run "domain.tld/wp/post" and "domain.tld/wp/english/post"

YunoHost doesn't let me build a WordPress site in the root directory with multisite installed, so I must find the way to tell nginx I want the product to be physically on /wp/ but browser can point to domain.tld/post or domain.tld/english/post...

And if possible, this change to be in a file on its own, in order to be able to delete it without damaging the whole nginx conf.

Last detail, I'm on hostinger, kvm2 package. vps.

So, yes this is selfhosting related. I am working on an n8n flow to pull in weather data so that I can have this data on a dashboard. I can't find any dockerized weather forecasting apps. Most of them connect to a personal weather station, which might be an option in the future. For the time being, this is a little project I'm working on.

Partial JSON snippet:

0	
json	
cod	"200"
message	0
cnt	40
list	
0	
dt	1780693200
main	
temp	29.4
feels_like	29.23
temp_min	29.4
temp_max	29.68
pressure	1019
sea_level	1019
grnd_level	984
humidity	42
temp_kf	-0.28
weather	

I would like to display something like this:

Current temperature: 23.25 °C
Feels like: 24.09 °C
Low / High: 23.25 °C / 23.60 °C
Humidity: 94%
Atmospheric pressure: 1023 hPa (sea level: 1023 hPa, ground level: 988 hPa)
Temperature correction factor (temp_kf): -0.35

Weather: Light rain
Weather code: 500
Short condition: Rain
Icon: 10d

So, this is for you devs or coders out there. I can produce the JSON data. I'm just not sure how to parse it to something meaningful. I'm sure Python will have to be incorporated, but unsure of how to proceed.

Maybe someone could point me in a direction to tuts, articles, or your own experience. Sorry the JSON data doesn't format correctly. Lemmy formatting doesn't seem to allow that.

Say ww3 kicks off and power goes off - how are you keeping your servers up? Solar panels and batteries?

What if there's a biblical flood and you dont have the means to build an arc? All your servers are destroyed beyond repair?

What if you heard the Feds are coming to cart you and your servers away cos they suspect you of bad mouthing Emperor Tromp? (you're on the run or subject to months of torture and yeah, you're never getting your kit back)

What if theres a war and Luxembourg (you know, the enemy) let's of an EMP pulse that kills your servers and all the infrastructure (power, internet...). How do you access all those cherished pics on Immich?

I'm not suggesting any of this will/can happen, its all just for lols, but have you made any contingency plans? Big binders full of printouts, bug-out bags, those flower-type solar things that track the sun, Faraday cages....

At 10.06.2026 openmediavault 7 will become EOL because Debian 12 estimates EOL (end-of-life) for the same time. This means no security/bugfix updates will be released anymore. Please upgrade to openmediavault 8 to be up-to-date.

2026-06-10 for people using a not insane date format. Already updated some of my omv installs, went without a hassle. Check if your plugins are supported, some of them were removed.

Hello folks,

What do folks recommend as good practices to use a laptop as an always on, always plugged-in server? Specifically, how to manage the battery and some of the potential cautions/dangers of keeping it plugged in.

I have a spare Dell workstation laptop that I'd like to use as a Proxmox node. I've seen a number of posts where folks will mention that using a spare laptop works well because it has a built in 'UPS', but then in the comments there's caution about the battery being plugged in all the time.

I'm curious what folks do in terms of battery management, assuming I want to keep this as hands-off/low maintenance (but fireproof) as possible.

Thank you all so much, ~M

Update: thank you all so much for the great advice. This is a Dell Workstation and it does have a 'Primarily AC use' power setting in the BIOS, as well as custom charge levels available. Appreciate it and I hope this discussion helps other folks looking to do the same!

Hello everyone,

I want to create a Tailscale account to access my Jellyfin server from outside my home, but I’m already stuck at the first step: to create an account, you need either a GAFAM account or OIDC. I don’t have any personal accounts with GAFAM because of Lemmy’s bad influence. My emails are on Tuta. I don’t want to overcomplicate things as I'm a noob, but after spending 30 minutes researching OIDC, I still don’t know where to start… I don’t work in IT (at all).

Is it better to just give up and create a throwaway account with a GAFAM platform, or is there a simple way to do this with OIDC? If so, can anyone point me the way? Is there a free reliable OIDC provider? Will that make things complicated afterward with tail scale?

For more context: I turned my old gaming PC into a media center running Fedora and a Jellyfin server that I access locally. I was surprised by how relatively simple it all was, especially getting Jellyfin to work locally.

Obviously, I wanted to use Tailscale to connect to Jellyfin remotely, but I never had time to look into it. I was told this morning that I’m going to undergo major surgery with a significant recovery period ahead, so suddenly this has become urgent...

Kittygram is an Instagram frontend, like nitter and invideous.

A lot has changed since I first posted about it. Kittygram now has:

• a developer API
• atom feeds
• ratelimit tracking
• explore/popular pages
• more themes

cross-posted from: https://discuss.online/post/40941829

Details at https://twtxt.dev/ and elsewhere. This has been in development since 2016. All you do is create a txt file in www or html and include info like

# nick        = username
# url         = https://example.com/posts.txt
# avatar      = https://example.com/avatar.png
# description = Describe this

to then begin posting using a command like like

echo -e "$(date -u +'%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ')\tHello to all of you out there! >> posts.txt

There are various registries and places you can submit your user via curl to become more discoverable by others. Also tons of spin-offs that add support for fancier markdown and such, but haven't tried those yet.

I give up.

I tried left and right to try to install an email server so I could degoogle my life.

But therechnical barrier is thick and Google keeps adding more to it. Forget it. I can't even get thru the installation process much less trying to get my shit off Google.

I figure, I don't actually have any need for my email addresses. Just like my phone number. I never call anyone. I'm going to discourage my kids from using email at all. I'll remind everyone I know that I don't use email at every opportunity I get just like I remind people to not call me and that my phone number is not available.

Between spammers and Google, I just don't need this headache in my life. My mom is much less technically savvy than the average pet. So Google will just siphon her data and when the megabits are full then you just delete the old stuff.

You don't need it. No one will spend their life reading your emails when you're gone or watching your videos or listening to your recordings or viewing your photos. There's no need to worry about just deleting the pile of shit you've accumulated. I'm this done.

Hey everyone, as I previously mentioned the rules here are up for debate, and I'd like to start with the problem that led us all here:

3. 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.

Breaking it up:

Posts have to be centered around self-hosting

Kind of obvious for the community, but perfectly fine to note.

There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing.

Without listing anything here, I think this is pointless and unhelpful. I'd also note that hardware is intrinsic to hosting your own services, and we are talking about people hosting at home, which makes "home computing" here rather confusing. We host these things for our home computing typically. The intention I think was "This is not your generic linux help desk or buildapc", but that doesn't come through very well.

If it’s not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

I like this not from a moderation perspective, but more of a post clarity perspective. Whats obviously related to selfhosting to the OP may not be obvious to people visiting that post.

Here's what I propose as a revised rule 3:

Posts here are to be centered around self-hosting. Be prepared to explain to others why it's related to self-hosting if asked.

Please discuss! Happy to have any additional input on this.

In the meantime, I'm striking out the middle of rule 3 until there is some consensus on wording.

Edit: Its/it's typo

Edit 2: Slight language update option:

Posts here are to be centered around self-hosting. Please ensure it is clear in your post how it relates to self-hosting.

@hybridsarcasm@lemmy.world has not replied to me (or anyone according to his profile) after that last bit about making me and @ayyy@sh.itjust.works mods, so I'm going to go ahead and work on holding down the fort. Its a bit of a hectic weekend for me with activities for my kids, so you may see some post activity being restored or other such things in no particular order.

So who am I?

Well, I'm a specialist consultant by day, and an avid self-hoster. Off the top of my head, I host:

• Jellyfin
• An over-complicated *arr stack to suit my particular tastes of media management
• Prometheus+Loki+Grafana for my monitoring stack
• Home Assistant
• Personal website
• Immich
• MagicMirror
• ROMM for that fun emulation on the go
• Kavita (mostly because I keep forgetting to change the url on my wife's phone for the other OPDS server) & Calibre (the other OPDS)
• Local AI models for testing purposes mostly
• Endurain for my post-Strava life
• Various stuff for utility for SSO, LDAP, databases, MQTT, so on and so forth

Predominantly running on Proxmox as LXCs, with some docker here and there. So pretty much the same as a lot of you, just another *selfhoster (edit: WHOOPS! I a whole word there, now fixed)

Moderation Style

Lets call it "light touch". I'm pretty sure everyone here is more than capable of handling most things with the appropriate votes - we've seen this with the recent thread that resulted in this moderation change. In case you couldn't also guess from my home instance, I'm a firm believer in people being able to regulate themselves, so as far as I'm concerned that means the rules themselves can be up for discussion as well. As this community is on lemmy.world, of course that means the TOS here must be respected.

There are people on both sides of the keyboards, so please be respectful of others.

The one thing that I just do not tolerate is bigotry.

And finally, feel free to send me a message to address any issues! So lets have some fun with self-hosting.

Edit: Added a direct link to the Lemmy.world TOS for clarity. This community is on Lemmy.world and subject to its terms, as managed by the admin team.

Looking for a team collaboration project management solution, basically:

• scrum project management with kanban (something like jira but probably simpler will do)
• communication connected to project management (something like slack)
• file repository (like a nextcloud drive)
• calendar with caldav.

Data sovereignty and libre software is a must.

At first we thought nextcloud would do all this, and it does but the kanban app (deck) is kinda limiting (only 3 hierarchy levels and no swimlanes)

So we can connect nextcloud with openproject but as openproject has some features only in enterprise plan, was wondering for other solutions... Could be one integrated solution or maybe better following UNIX philosophy and having separate small pieces of software that do their work fine and can connect via API/Webhooks? Like a good kanban (wekan, vikunja?) Connected to a matrix server (continuwity?) And maybe also connected to nextcloud or other online collaborative drive?

Any ideas welcome!

Thanks!!

Howdy! Sorry if this is a supid question. I've been trying to get this working for like 5 days and I've been researching and reading docs, but I'm just not getting it. I'm fairly new to selfhosing and I'm trying to set up Jellyfin remote access on my NAS. My NAS is a QNAP product running QTS (which I absolutely hate). QTS uses their own weird version of Docker.

When I start Caddy with a docker compose file, I get an error that port 443 is in use and the container can't be started. If I create a container in the Container Station app directly from the Docker Image, it starts up fine. Container Station handles environment variables in a dumb way so I am having trouble specifying the Caddyfile location when I do it that way.

Does anyone know why it works fine in that way but not the other? Both use port 443 but when I do it in a docker compose file, it says the port is in use but when I do it the other way, it doesn't and starts fine.

Note: I know you can do this with Tailscale also, but I want to use my custom domain to make it easier for sharing in the future.

Screenshot is of me tunneling into my headless analog video capture server I put together out of an old Thinkserver and a Magewell 1080p capture card, both of which were ebay gambles.

Here's the flow:

• VCR and Hi8 decks -->
• Kramer VPC-23 AV Switcher -->
• RetroTINK 4k, upscaled to 1080p HDMI -->
• Magewell Pro Capture card -->
• Thinkserver RS140

AntiX headless install on the server. I ssh in to kick off the capture script I wrote, which also publishes a preview video stream to my LAN. I then just kick back and tune in via mpv.

I went as far as setting up an nfs share on the server, so after a capture I can pull it onto my workstation, to trim, edit, etc.
