I think for matrix to be usable in a homelab setting, Matrix needs to enable a way to handle these huge data storage with prune or something similar.

I found snikket to be quite decent, give it a whirl.

Awesome <3

If you need feedback, testing etc. on this feature, I’m happy to help. Just pm me and I’ll give you my github account.

This is really cool. Happy that you included the comments, as I find them often quite insightful. Look forward to spin this up and try it.

Edit: I know this is really hard to design and implement, but is it possible to bring in certain amount of child comments as-well? E.g., past a certain vote threshold or only X child comments deep. This might be a requirement that want to “move” the social media platform into the RSS feeder, but I want to entertain the idea.

There are so many monitoring tools with various degrees of complicated setup / configuration or the amount of information you get. And honestly, I’ve looked into various tools: checkmk, monit, Prometheus… And realised that I rarely look into that information anyway. Of all “fancy” tools, I liked the ease of Netdata to set up and the amount of information that you get. However, beware that their in the process to make their free / homelad offering worse. I’ve been eyeing beszel and don’t forget CLI based tools that are avaible such as atop, btop, htop or glances.

If you want to delve deeper into the rabbit hole of monitoring, I can recommend you to read this article below: https://matduggan.com/were-all-doing-metrics-wrong/

I’ve tried different approaches with fail2ban, crowdsec, VPNs, etc. What I settled on is to divide the data of my services in two categories: confidential and “I can live with it leaking”.

The ones that host confidential data is behind a VPN and has some basic monitoring on them.

The ones that are out in the public are behind a WAF from cloudflare with pretty restrictive rules.

Yes, cloudflare suck etc., but the value of stopping potential attacks before they reach your services is hard to match.

Just keep in mind: you need layers of different security measures to protect your services (such as backups, control of network traffic, monitoring and detection, and so on).

I really like this. Is it possible to have it search several sources in the future?

I like this thread :-)

I have just checked off a long standing item in my backlog: implementing OIDC on at least two apps. I’ve used a remote keycloak instance for authention for my household and so far so good. Now I’ll try to understand the configurations a little better before take on other items on my backlog.

I was also eyeing this, but wanted to use another provider than openAI or ollama. So I’ll wait until that’s implemented.

Never heard of go-proxy, seems like it will fit my needs well as I only use Caddy for rev-proxying.

Thanks for the awesome blog!

I used freshrss for quite some time, but the themes always looked a bit “off” for me. Went to miniflux and its awesome in its minimalism.

Hmm, nocodb is a webapp first and foremost. It does have binaries to run directly on the host, but I’m not entirely sure to recommend this over libreoffice actual app for database management. I believe it would be more in line with OPs requirement.

Briar, for communication during internet blackouts or when there is no connectivity at all.

Will keep an eye on this, looks interesting!

Can vouch for kopia, excellent backup tool.

You’re asking excellent and very relevant questions.

OP, take heed.

Track record.

This is a norm to be avoided. A phone without updates (at least security updates) should be avoided at all costs considering the potential consequences.

How’s unihertz track record with providing updates? This is an important factor to avoid artificial obsolescence.

Tell meore about the obsidian plugin, dusbt know of it.
