Very neat, was just looking for this!

Recently discovered KleverNotes by KDE, while only a desktop app it’s really really nice! It’s dead simple and straight to the point markdown editor. Recommend folks to check it out.

Oh thats a lot less than i had imagined actually and very neat that u can turn of re-hosting pictures! Putting this on my to-do list!

Curios about how much space is required for hosting a personal Lemmy instance? Is this something you know, if it’s not too much I would be interested in hosting myself!

No idea how I would connect the drivers, was hoping there would be an easy solution for this but seems there might not be? Guess I’ll have to look into something that has data as you say as I wouldn’t want to slow down speeds or make it unreliable.

The rack I linked isn’t one I want on specific, but generally in that direction. It’s a small one for sure, though they have larger ones too:

My apologies, It is mostly a media server (Jellyfinn+arr stack), but also for many random projects i like such as Mealie, Freshrss, linkding, memos etc…

forgot to mention im getting the mini-pc for free 😅

thanks for the link!

Wow that’s really neat, thanks!

Thanks I personally really needed this today actually! Well written and good points. Today is that kind day I need to take a step back and in a week or two ill have sorted out thoughts and have a more refreshed approach. Thanks.

neat dude, thanks for sharing!

Also, you must have not read the wiki properly, because he does mention OPNsense.

Thanks dude! Best of luck on your selfhosting adventures ✨

I completely agree that WireGuard and OPNsense are excellent choices, and I would have chosen them myself. However, I don’t think it’s fair to suggest that someone should “leave the topic to others” simply because they’ve made different choices. While WireGuard is indeed superior, OpenVPN is still a solid option and widely used today. Similarly, although OPNsense is better, pfSense remains a great piece of software - even though the company behind it isnt perfect.

People should still be able to use whatever software they like without being juged by it. Its better for people to at least start with something, rather than nothing: then its also more likely they will get more educated on topic and the different matters of opinions later on.

damn, that is a shame.

actually yeah, fair point. I think perhaps the videoes are probably what they aim to be more beginner friendly rather than the written one.

Very nice goal list, best of luck!

Ouf yeah same here 😅

What mini rack did you go for? Am looking to do the same.

From what I’ve heard the best option for deleting your data from brokers is: https://easyoptouts.com/

This is just run by two honest dudes and is considerably cheaper than the other services. The reason I like this one (though not used as I don’t live in the US, is because these guys are quite transparent about the process.) I’ve heard numerous podcasts where these guys come into the show and talk about their work. As an example they were on the Firewalls don’t stop dragon podcast. I would at least have a look at this service and compare with the rest.

Best of luck 🍀

VLANs for the win! Was a difficult process for me too when i first setup my Omada stack, but got there in the end. Very nice to have it sorted. While you’re at it, you might want to look into having a seperate wifi for guests! I at least have a very limited guest wifi, with a QR code guests can scan when they come in to my house - neat little thing for them, plus i dont have to worry about their devices on my network.
