Looking for some brains trust recommendations on good NVMe drives to use for home servers. I’ve managed to get Samsung 980 Pros for good prices in the past and haven’t had any issues but I need a few more 1TB drives and wondering if there’s some cheaper options people have had good experiences with?

Well today I learned something! I’ve been using docker-compose for 5+ years now and I never happened upon the addition of compose to docker haha.

It’s also the issue with the internet and all the fantastic guides which even if they were written 12 months ago, are already out of date!

Something that always confused me was how docker doesn’t come with compose installed as a core component.

That was for new entry level specs, you could obviously spend a lot more on the highest specs but often the NUC fit a segment that didn’t need to be bleeding edge of performance.

The article makes it sound they cost over $1,000 (USD?) and were impossible to find but here in Australia I never had any issues finding and unless you were going for the extreme versions, there closer to $5-600AUD which made them a great fit. All we can hope is that there’s a few other brands who are willing to fill the space with equal quality products.

You’re using localhost in your config file so probably want to change that to http://vaultwarden/ so it knows which docker service to point to.

I’ve certainly found it frustrating that these alternate search engines don’t always cater for geographic location, so if I’m looking for a product I get results that are US-centric versus retailers based near me. Google does do a good job of knowing what’s relevant to you based on your history and location. I’ve tried DuckDuckGo and Brave so far and both have routinely ended in my needing to jump to google on occasion.

Maybe that ends up being the solution, only use Google when you can’t find it elsewhere so at least they’re only getting 10% of your search history…

Plex has a client app on just about every single media player out there and they have a simple single sign on solution.

So I personally run both Plex and Jellyfin, Jellyfin for myself as I’m willing to put up with some of the hoops I have to jump through and Plex for everyone else who just gets an invite email, creates an account and suddenly has access to all of my content on every single device they own.

Once jellyfin has reliable apps on every App Store and a simple way of getting non-tech savvy users onboarded I’ll move everyone over to jellyfin. Until then, it’s just for me.

This doesn’t really apply if you’re port forwarding to a specific device. In that case you know that you have told your firewall to forward port 80 & 443 (for example) to your web server and you know what ports that has open. I would not be using UPNP on the other hand as that seems dangerous especially in the IOT era.

Keep in mind you can always use a different DNS provider who does support dynamic dns. For example you could use cloudflare (free) with a domain bought from Pork Bun.
