I love Homepage. It's pretty, configurable, simple, and versatile.

At the moment, "Element Call is temporarily not end-to-end encrypted while we test scalability."

I should add that I'm not sold on AntennaPod, Podfetch, and GPodder. I think AntennaPod is a great app and I hope I can use it to do what I want here. Podfetch seems nice, with room to grow in terms of features and Ux. GPodder seems pretty terrible (though I hardly know it) but also seems to be the defacto standard in syncing podcasts and play-states (or perhaps the only game in town?).

But I'd ditch any or all of them if I was able to sync podcasts and play-states between devices. My only caveat is that the solution needs to be FOSS and self-host-able.

I currently use Photo structure, which is good, but its not open source and the one guy behind it, Matthew, is quite slow with progress. He's super friendly and helpful, and bug fixes are pretty quick. But feature additions are glacial.

I was considering switching to photoprism but was turned off by the attitude of some of the developers. The product looks prery good, though.

I'm pretty sure I'm going to switch to Immich, which is also really good.

A friend uses Piwigo which is decent and has good features, though I find it's very ugly regardless which skin you use.

I hoy Baikal.myself and sync to it via davx5 on android and via Thunderbird in ubuntu

I recently installed TrueNAS in Proxmox in this interesting Ouroboros-like configuration. So far it's been great.

Photostructure is a strong starter, but development is slow and it's still missing important features like sharing. Also, it's not ooen source.

Immich seems great but doesn't (yet) support digikam tags ( and since my 100,000 assets are tagged/organized via digikam, I don't want to move to immich yet and have to start over).

PhotoPrism seemed pretty good, though it also doesn't (yet) support digikam tags. Also, their self-hosted version doesn't have all the features of their paid versions.

They could choose a different business model to get revenue from their videos that doesn't rely on google or the current model where personal privacy is the commodity. It could also be a difficult transition. Is it worth it to them? To you?

That is what I did. And it didn't work.

Maybe btop+ or Prometheus.

Looks cool! I went to docker hub to see if you already have an image...there's at least 1 other "snapify" that's not you, I think. :( i've used Loom a few times - it would be nice to self-host this service.

@deergon@lemmy.world, @shasta@lemm.ee, and @lemmyvore@feddit.nl,

THanks for your help. My main issue ended up being that I was trying to use Let's Encrypt's staging mode, but since staging certs are self-signed, Traefik was not accepting the requests. Also, though I had to switch Traefik's logging level to Info instead of error to see that.

When you install an APK directly like this as opposed to installing it from a package manager like F-Droid or Play Store, do you have to manually install upgrades when they're available?

What about an approach where there's a website to facilitate people donating to FOSS project, and all that website needs is a list of possible recipients of the FOSS project (e.g., app developers, libraries it uses). When I want to donate I go to this website and say "I want to donate to Lemmy", and it shows me "Lemmy has these possible recipients: X, Y, ...". When I say "I want to donate $10" the website asks "should we distribute this evenly among all Lemmy recipients?" (which might be the default) or I have the option of unchecking some recipients or or assigning some recipients a higher percentage of my donation.

I recently installed Proxmox and TrueNAS on the same box in kind of an ouroboros styles, following this guide: https://github.com/enigmacurry/d.rymcg.tech

So now I have both. I run VMs in proxmox and use truenas only for nas.

I'm curious why you're not interested in xBrowsersync, if you're willing to share. It does everything you're looking for.

Have you looked at Shaarli?

Unfortunately that didn't work for me.

Can you see the data you copied inside the container?

That led me to my problem! I did have the volume mounted, but the container's path was incorrect: Forgejo was recreating it's resource files as a new install because where it was looking for them, they didn't exist.

Thanks!

Thanks for the reply! When Moneydance loses keyboard connectivity, the mouse still works and the UI is accessible via the mouse, so it sounds like perhaps not an issue with a locked UI due to a long-processing or deadlock thread.

I did find another user having this issue with Moneydance, and someone (not sure if they're a user or with Moneydance) seems to think the problem is specific to Mondeydance.

FYI, I host my own xbs server. It's pretty easy on its own, but I use the d.rymcg.tech framework.

ABS works pretty well for me. Thanks!

The only way I see to sync play-state is if you use the ABS app or the web page. In ABS you can create an RSS feed for a podcast and you can subscribe to that feed in Antennapod, and the podcasts sync but their play-state doesn't. So I'll use the ABS on my phone instead of Antennapod. ABS is missing some nice features common in good podcast players, but it works well enough for me.

Thanks for these tips.

Thanks for the assistance, @iso@lemy.lol.

My new server uses a new domain. I do still have the old data (in fact, the old server is still up - that's where I'm posting this from).

I installed both Lemmy servers via Docker. It would be nice if I could rsync my account data (including post/comment history) from the old server to the new server, but I'm now wondering if my changing domains would make the old account not work at all in the new server.

Thanks, @iso@lemy.lol.

Thanks for that info, @tobogganablaze@lemmus.org.

I recently installed TrueNAS on a box with Proxmox, following these instructions. It allows the box to be your NAS and run anything else as a VM (so NextCloud, Grocy/KitchenOwl, etc., even your VPN).

I currently only use proxmox for VMs. Proxmox hosts a TrueNAS VM, TrueNAS controls all but the main (small) drive on the box, proxmox then has access to the other drives through TrueNAS. Kind of neat.

But I think it would indeed be simpler to only have TrueNAS and use it for both nas and VMs. I have no experience with TrueNAS' VMs.

Thanks for explaining that, @pe1uca@lemmy.pe1uca.dev

Double thanks, for the explanation and for the Obtanium suggestion.

I like CryptPad.

I checked out ABS a while ago, but i t didn't fit my needs. I don't remember why, now, though. I'll check it out again. Thanks.

That's true. You must manually edit the up-to-6 config files to customize Homepage. It's not difficult, but it's not a GUI.

d.rymcg.tech is a docker-based self-hosting "platform", and it includes Homepage and a way to configure it using your own custom homepage-config repo, but that might be a bit much to take on if you just want Homepage or if thisnkind of thing is outside of your skillset.

I tried all the downloadable browsers. None work in this iOS. :(

Thanks for the resources. I'll check them out.

Thanks for the suggestions, but you don't sound too optimistic about them they they're beyond my skill set anyway (except possibly jailbreaking).

I finally got around to this and jailbreaking the iPad was as easy as you suggested. Thanks, @Aatube@kbin.social!

But I don't see how to install a newer browser. Cydia and Zebra seem to be able to install themes and tweaks. How would I get them to install Firefox or Chrome? Also, how would I install linux on the ipad?

Thanks, I'll try that.

Both gitea and forgejo are using sqlite3. Gitea 1.20.0, Forgejo 1.21.
