Copyparty looks like a feature full self hosted file server, putting this into my check out later when I get back to my desk. Impressive number of features I didn’t even know were a thing all from one .py file.

I would love to have a browser based video editor I could throw on a server and do quick edits from anywhere. I tried to get this one to work and struggled to get front end to send api requets to backend. I think the root of it was their redis wants to run on 80, this caused a permission error so I tried to run 8880:80, but redis was still unable to start due to a config permission error.

I’m way behind on my notification game and need to pick it up. maybe I’ll look into hcio as well. maybe I’ll look into something that goes straight to signal or just get things working on ntfy. An 80GB log file is massive and the kind of thing id like to see notifications more.

The object storage (S3-compatible) platform MinIO created a bit of a stir this week

I had not heard about this before it came in through selfh.st. I use minio a lot, and did not know there are so many great alternatives out there for it. I might be looking into some of these options such as garage.

Its hard to tell from this article what mino dropped, but luckily for me it seems to be all ui related. I use the UI for debugging/feedback/sometimes learning, but at this point I’ve got good flows for setting up new access keys, buckets, and everything with the cli.

I didn’t realize that postiz had a helm chart, I just hand rolled mine based on the compose file they provide. I went from running the compose stack locally to running in my homelab with kubernetes. I am using cnpg rather than a postgres container which I really like the workflow of as far as backup and restore. The one hiccup I ran into was changing the domain from localhost to my homelab domain killed all of my integrations and they needed the redirect url updated.

Interesting takes on Diun here. I agree that I like to be in control of updates and pinning not to latest. both seemed like they weren’t going to run it because they can look up the latest version. Maybe I need to be less aggressive on keeping things up to date and its a me problem. I just got diun setup and hooked into ntfy, and I kinda like the automated checklist of new images that I can review and update.

To be a bit more clear, having control over changes coming in from others, even if I dont care to see the changelog, it is nice to roll out an update, have it in your git history, watch it deploy and work like before, if not roll back and read the changelog. For internal applications I’m down for automated releases like argo image updater give you, this thing has already gone through review, launch the damn thing at least to a dev space.

imagegenius has made an immich all in one setup that looks much easier to use than immich.
