Anyone else run so many services locally that sometimes you don't immediately notice your internet is out?
Apparently my internet was out for the last 20 minutes or so, and I've been browsing Lemmy, working on a doc in Nextcloud/OnlyOffice, and watching a movie on Jellyfin without even noticing.
I just happened to notice that the Matrix rooms I was in were all quiet.

To me this sounds like you’re missing another service to monitor your internet for uptime. I recommend Uptime-Kuma.
JK. Best part of the self hosted media server is I can usually get away with updating and rebooting the firewall while the wife is watching her shows and she’s never the wiser!
Oooohh...
I've got Uptime-Kuma internally for watching all my internal services and then I've got one running on a VPS that watches all the external services and public endpoints.
Such a great project and so easy to use..
Agreed, I was glad when they added maintenance windows because I can’t tell you the number of times I blew up my phone with notifications after rebooting a docker host and forgetting to stop the kuma instance.
There is a community Ansible module for the Uptime-Kuma API that I've been trying to get working so I can trigger the maintenance window when I run my playbook to update services but I haven't quite figured it out yet.
I'm in the same boat though, I start updating containers and my slack channel blows up for like five minutes straight.
That’s a great idea I didn’t think to check into, I’ll have to see how difficult that is to implement. I’m still pretty new to ansible.
