What do you recommend for remote S3 provider?

I run a selfhosted local S3 instance using SeaweedFS, but I still would like to sync that to something remote to have extra backups. I'd like to use a privacy friendly provider, so this excludes USA companies at this time.

Btw, I'm looking to store around 4TB with that expected to grow over time.

Something I thought was old and boring until I tried it for myself: #RSS

I especially like it in combination with a way to sync/backup your feeds, like #FreshRSS, which I'm self-hosting. It's duct taped together for now as I first wanted to try it out, but I'm liking it so far. I had seen those RSS buttons on websites for a while and I never had a way to use them. I guess that's the fun of self-hosting: you notice a problem, and you can always find a solution.

We've just had our #solar panels installed! We've got a battery as well!

Although I #selfhost, my power usage has always been an issue, and being able to reduce my drain on the grid has benefits to both the environment AND my wallet.

Soon I'll be able to say that whitespashe runs on about 50% completely renewable energy!

#solarpunk (almost)

I installed a self-hosted copy of Karakeep this morning based on the Tailscale guy's recommendation, and I've been playing with it. It seems like a reasonable way to manage bookmarks -- until now I've just been using Firefox's bookmarks, which get unwieldy.

I haven't enabled the "AI" tagging/summarization. I don't want to pay for OpenAI, and I can't run much of an LLM on the Raspberry Pi.

Server monitoring 101

I have been running a @yunohost server for ~5 years now, but there is one question I have never been able to answer: how loaded is my server?

I know, I am a terrible sysad (actually, I am not a sysad, at all), because I have no idea how to determine:

• if my server is running smoothly
• if the server is under stress, and why
• what applications are the heaviest
• if there is the possibility of installing more apps
• when peaks of stress are happening and what is causing them

In general, I would like to understand the fundamentals of server monitoring: what are the most critical metrics and what do they mean? What parameters do I have to keep an eye on?

I installed Prometheus and Grafana, but then I realized I have absolutely no idea what to do next… Do you have any suggestions?

I thought about watching some video tutorials, but I would not really know how they would relate to YunoHost installations.

Please, if possible reply in this thread of the YunoHost forum, so that we can keep track of this useful information also for others in the future.

Once I will have learned the basics, I would be very happy to write some pointers about this in the documentation, or an essential YunoHost Monitoring tutorial.

And another new app package dropped for your #cloudron This time Beszel a nice app to monitor all your docker containers on another server: https://beszel.dev/

As usual announcement with more details: https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/13880/beszel-is-now-available

Was zum Geier ist das? Ich habe plötzlich bei der Installation von Debian (Netinstall Version 12.11.) keine Auswahl der Softwarepakte mehr. 1000 Mal gemacht und heute gehts nicht mehr. Hat einer eine Idee?

@linux @linux #debian #installation #selfhost #linux #server

Puede parecer una tontería, e incluso cabezonería, pero tener en mi propia máquina un cliente de #RSS (con varias docenas de orígenes), un servidor de #Mastodon y ahora un servidor de #XMPP (con soporte de VoIP) me acerca más a una soberanía de privacidad digital y me proporciona mucha paz mental no depender de ninguna empresa tecnológica para estos servicios. Algo tan básico pero que en los últimos tiempos se ha degradado tanto hasta hacerlo insoportable.
