LordChaos82@fosstodon.orgOPto Open Source@lemmy.ml•[@OpenSource@mastodon.social](https://mastodon.social/@OpenSource) [@opensource@lemmy.ml](https://lemmy.ml/c/opensource) I was just curious. If a project is started as opensource and we have bunch of101·2 years ago@maegul Thanks for the heads up. I cross posted from mastodon and still trying to figure out how this all works. Appreciate the input.
LordChaos82@fosstodon.orgOPto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•I have a docker container running in portainer. I have added an SMB volume to the container. Does anyone know how I can update this docker container using docker-compose without undoing my changes? Th0·2 years ago@Dirk thanks. That’s how I did it but I am not sure if updating using docker compose would overwrite it. Portainer is running on a VM so I will make sure to snapshot it and try so I can restore it if needed.

Does anyone know how I can update this docker container using docker-compose without undoing my changes? Th0·2 years ago@Catsrules Thanks. This specific to Immich. The upload location in the docker-compose is picked from .env file. I, for the life of me, cannot figure out how to mount the portainer SMB volume in the .env file. What I ended up doing was to select the containers using the upload location and edit the volume to attach the SMB share volume from portainer. I hope what I said makes sense. I am just a newbie learning docker right now.
LordChaos82@fosstodon.orgto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Need recommendations on something like Vaultwarden but for 2FA only.01·2 years ago@fedonr Vaultwarden also has 2FA option. You can use that if it fits in their workflow.
LordChaos82@fosstodon.orgto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•How much power does your home lab take?3·2 years ago@hungover_pilot Way more than I would like but the way I see it, it’s cheaper than drinking and I learn in the process so I take it as a cost of entertainment :)
LordChaos82@fosstodon.orgto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•is nextcloud still the best to host a small amount of files that need to be accessible anywhere and backed up? and carddav caldav1·2 years agoI use both Seafile and Nextcloud. I use nextcloud for exactly your use case. File sharing, contact Sync and Calendar Sync. I backup my nextcloud files to seafile. It works perfectly for my use case.
LordChaos82@fosstodon.orgto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•What can the 'average Joe' start hosting, that will change their life?0·2 years ago@XTornado What are you Synching with? In my case, I self host my Joplin server and on my local network, it took around a minute to Sync a few thousand notes on my Android phone.
LordChaos82@fosstodon.orgto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Can I use external hard drive with laptop for self hosting?0·2 years ago@JustEnoughDucks I started with this setup. Proxmox on my laptop with an external 1 TB USB 3 drive added to proxmox as storage. It would work great for getting started and learning. I/O via USB 3 could be an issue so make sure you don’t use this setup for intensive Read/Write operations. But use it as a lab setup and it would work great.
PS: Once I moved to bigger servers, I still use my laptop proxmox for testing services before I roll them out to my production servers.
LordChaos82@fosstodon.orgto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Help understanding options for network names1·2 years ago@knaak I have an excel sheet with all the IP addresses in my homelab.
@steal_your_face @Kushan Because FOSS.
@hello_world I would be using it in a VM or bare metal if I could. I have heard good things about Nextcloud in docker but we are power users on Nextcloud in my house so not sure if docker instance of nextcloud could handle the load.
@hello_world Sorry, my reply was meant for @encode8062 . Not sure how you got tagged.
If the question was for me, I am stuck with using it in snap as my family and I have too much invested in Nextcloud to try to attempt a migration to a non snap instance.
@encode8062 @hello_world Please try to avoid using nextcloud in snap. I started with nextcloud in snap and came a long way before I realized the performance and upgrade issues when using snap version of nextcloud. For me it was too late but now I try to ask people to avoid it at all costs.
LordChaos82@fosstodon.orgto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Using healthchecks.io and ntfy.sh to wake you up if your services are down1·2 years ago@binwiederhier I love the idea. I am always on call for my work so this would fit right in with my schedule 🤣
@kionite231 @ExtremeDullard I have tried everything to ask my favorite creators to start posting on peertube but its impossible to find the content I am looking for on peertube :(
I hope someday peertube would take off
