On a per-app basis, the price can’t be beat, especially at this level of convenience. I host exactly uptime kuma and beszel on there. The owners are also super responsive to things like adding more env vars.
I wonder if Tailscale has ever really been a performance bottleneck for homelabbers
I'm switching off cloudflare for my domain/cdn services to Bunny soon :)
Tailscale just works too well for me and I don't detect too many enshittification markers yet. But I check in on netbird like monthly now lol
It really stinks that nowadays whenever I find a cool project that achieves exactly what I'm looking for or a solves a problem I didn't know I had, I have to temper my excitement and look for markers of heavy AI usage (commits, reading md files, the writing and graphical style). it's really taking the wind out of the hobby, I think. Hopefully it's mostly just a phase
Those last two bullets would be huge. I have a personal tailnet and another for my org. Switching between them is just annoying enough that I might even pay for that feature.
I always get so close to just setting up wireguard and being done with it. I barely ever change the devices on my tailnet, anyway.
I do have a couple friends on my tailnet to give access to some stuff, so that might be annoying to migrate. That and Tailscale handling all the other networking stuff I might not even know about like cgnat.
ntfy never really had good push to iOS, in my experience. The only way I could keep my private channels consistently working was to use the PWA and specifically not sign into it (otherwise, my login token would expire and break things).
I gave up and switched to pushover and as long as I’m somewhat cognizant about what i’m including in the notifications, I’ve been pretty happy.
I’d love for something self hostable to get as good as pushover on iOS
There’s almost no chance of getting banned for this. Spotify themselves provides the APIs that let you get metadata about your playlists and tracks, and setting up a developer account with them is petty easy.
It’s moreso a concern of Spotify eventually limiting/ratelimiting that data retrieval in the future… which is why you should back up now while you can!
Check out https://github.com/WilliamNT/tunesynctool as well. Its development is a little slow right now but it seems very thoughtfully designed and lets you sync via command line (i’ve done so myself) or you can build around it in python.
Looks cool!
I’m curious about the ISRC matching. I’m working on bringing support for retrieval by ISRC in opensubsonic clients (and Navidrome tends to support the opensubsonic spec) but I didn’t think anyone actually added support yet since it was somewhat recently added to the spec.
I thought maybe it was a Navidrome specific feature to retrieve by ISRC, which would be cool!
But looking at what I think is the track matching algorithm for ISRC seems to just always return unmatched https://github.com/betsha1830/navispot/blob/main/lib/matching/isrc-matcher.ts
Am I just reading it wrong?
Your point 3 would be correct with docker and rootful podman, not rootless podman. I have a whole reddit post where this was hashed out, and over the many months and several comments in the post, I’m fairly certain I’m correct in my stated observations
That being said, it’s still best to not use id 0 in your containers and mark permissions the correct way based on your system’s user namespace mapping. It’s just one more variable to figure out, where in most people’s case it won’t matter too much, and still provides better isolation than docker
yunohost is awesome. The only reason I don’t still use it is because I use command line and containers daily already, so I’m genuinely faster that way. I recommend yunohost to friends and I’d go back to it if I already didn’t have a clean, particular way to set up things in my homelab.
