Personally I’d love to see a selfhosted alternative to Foursquare/Yelp so that I can “check in” to different locations and be able to keep a record of all the places I’ve been and what I’ve done/seen/purchased/etc. and leave reviews for such things (we go on family vacations a lot and try different restaurants that aren’t just boring “chains” and it would be nice to look back and see what we liked or didn’t like when we go back to those areas and see if they even still exist after X amount of years) https://reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/15dsvix/what_do_you_think_is_ the_biggest_missing_piece_in/ https://reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/12h7tu1/whats_a_software_you_ searched_to_selfhost_but_is/ https://reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/f4pxc2/what_selfhosted_server _are_you_missing_or/ https://reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/8dd81f/which_selfhosted_solut ions_are_you_missing/ https://reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/dzso73/what_are_you_missing_t hat_you_wish_you_had/ https://reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/si3g78/what_selfhosted_servic e_do_you_miss_tell_me_and/ https://reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/14cr5aq/what_self_hosted_app_ do_you_wish_existed/ https://reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/sxjjiq/what_do_you_wish_you_c ould_selfhost/ https://reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/ksh28m/what_selfhosted_toolap p_do_you_wish_you_had/ https://reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/nmfqas/what_type_of_app_have_ you_been_searching_for_and/ https://reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/naqsnj/what_are_some_selfhost ed_applications_that_you/ https://reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/x5q213/what_selfhosted_app_th at_you_use_needs_a_redesign/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- s_91 · 2023-10-21 10:21 Jellyfin plugin that auto downloads episodes (transcoded/direct) to your devices on schedule.

I want the whole process automated. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Extension_Way5818 · 2023-10-21 10:23 Thanks for the list! I like your selfhosted Yelp/Foursquare suggestion, sounds like something that'll be fun and pretty useful. One question tho: Do you mean like for only authorized users, so for example, your family? Ill look through a few of your links too ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Extension_Way5818 · 2023-10-21 10:25 Ill look into this, might be a bit wonky tho cause ill probably have to figure out a lot of undocumented APIs and other stuff, but thanks for the suggestion ---------------------------------------------------------------------- red-avtovo · 2023-10-21 10:27 Sometimes stability since I run some services on raspberry pi and sometimes it brings some unexpected surprises ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ThePixlPirate · 2023-10-21 10:33 Personally, yes…I would like for it to be selfhosted and only my family would have access…kinda like an online scrapbook to track things we’ve seen and done on vacations. For example: I’d like to be able to open the app (self hosted program that is) on my phone, login, and it would show me basically a Google maps view of where I’m at and what’s around me. Then I could basically click to drop a “pin” of where I’m at and then be able to document the fact that I’m at “Dave’s famous BBQ” and then I could log what we all ate, who our waitress was, how much it cost, what we liked/disliked, etc. and add photos if we wanted. Or I could drop the pin for a roadside attraction and list what things we did, how much it cost, add pictures and reviews, etc. Again, we travel a lot and there are times we don’t go back to a place for years and when we are back in the area we are always going “did we like that restaurant?” “Was that the place where the kids got food poisoning?” “Is that where we had that amazing steak and the waitress went out of her way to make sure we had an amazing time?” Or there are times we go back to an area and loved a specific roadside attraction that’s now defunct and gone and we can’t figure out if we are in the right spot or maybe in the wrong town. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- NowanIlfideme · 2023-10-21 10:35 Can you elaborate? I'm trying to debug my own setup and I'm not sure where best to start performance checking. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ThePixlPirate · 2023-10-21 10:36 Sounds like you need to check out Sonarr ---------------------------------------------------------------------- red-avtovo · 2023-10-21 10:38 I experienced multiple freezes, network access failures and storage consistency corruption (even by using an SSD instead of SD card). That forces me to spend so much more time on tweaking the board itself and not to spend my time with the actual services. Through the years I learned how to make the board as less human intrusive as possible and yet it still sometimes backlashes and breaks the whole setup ---------------------------------------------------------------------- thekrautboy · 2023-10-21 10:43 If youre bored and want to code: https://jellyfin.org/posts/a-call- for-developers/ Also this idea might be very good: https://www.reddit.com/r/docker/com ments/174682r/backup_also_databases/k47ckw1/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- s_91 · 2023-10-21 10:48 I think you misunderstood.

My bachelor's thesis is a personal finance app, I just started working on it. Any features you consider essential?

My goal is to set up proper VLANs and make everything more secure and organized, but I have not found the motivation or software that would make this easy. Well, it's mostly the motivation honestly. I'm sure my current OPNsense setup would make it possible, but it'd still take hours and hours to set everything up correctly. I'm currently past the "honeymoon" phase of homelabbing so I'm just happy when stuff works without my interference. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- guptaxpn · 2023-10-21 14:02 client -> When finished move to directory: syncthing syncthing on server + phone When the download is finished, it moves to a directory which syncs with your phone? if you've got android that would get it on your phone ASAP once it's finished downloading completely automated. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ZombieLinux · 2023-10-21 14:04 It’s truely worth it.

I just recently tried about ten "budgeting"/"money tracker" apps, and they all suck. Like Mint, it has a budget feature, but it's only for the current month?? That doesn't help me at all. Also, many of them struggle at just letting you manually add how much you make every month, how much each bill is, HOE MUCH YOU OWE ON CREDIT CARDS with interest rate included, and then extrapolate how much you need to save each month in a "bill fund" to keep on top of everything. Like my car insurance charges 700+ every six months, but only every 6 months. I need an app that can include things like that into my budget. Example: your rent is 1200, utilities, phone, estimate LD gas, etc together I'd let's say 500, but then you also gotta worry about things like insurance, paying off debts over time. You make 3k a month. All these budgeting apps would be like okay, simple you spend 1700 on your bills, x amount for investments , (of course thru their app) etc. I'd rather save it for when I'm home. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- espero · 2023-10-21 14:19 Fire safety More time to write code and experiment ---------------------------------------------------------------------- rgmelkor · 2023-10-21 14:24 Do you know how well it manages a very big library?

When you have your own local time source, you don’t have as many of the latency issues and jitter issues you might have with a remote server. With GPS, you can also run PTP, vs NTP and get nanosecond level precision and accuracy. For most things, it’s not super helpful, but for distributed file systems (Ceph in my case), clustered databases (Galera), and SDR experiments, having an islanded single source of time truth makes all those transactions more reliable. The last thing your clustered database wants is getting data from the future. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ThePixlPirate · 2023-10-21 16:03 Yeah I’ve come to the conclusion that my idea will never come to fruition without quite a bit of money invested into a coding company to make it….which means it’ll never be made lol ---------------------------------------------------------------------- mysticpawn · 2023-10-21 16:03 It’s too bad though, that’s a great idea. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- grigio · 2023-10-21 16:04 easy https for local network. i know how to do it with reverse proxy and traefik but i avoid to do it for everything ---------------------------------------------------------------------- DreamLanky1120 · 2023-10-21 16:06 Energy costs vary wildly depending on where you live, as does the price energy companies are willing to pay for overproduction. While solar may be cost effective in most places, battery backup in particular is often not financially worth it. There may be other incentives, such as battery backup when the grid goes down, but that usually costs even more. Also it's a big investment in a time when the world is not that stable, I would allways calculate that trough, the resoult can vary wildly event compared to your next door neighbor, depending on your roof construction. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- citruspers · 2023-10-21 16:08 Thanks!

Batteries can also be financially viable, but it's often difficult to know. You also have to trust in the longevity of the whole installation. Right now in Europe there is a big boom in solar because energy prices have skyrocketed due to really bad policies, so everybody who has the money is trying to get a solar installation. So manufacturers are ramping up production and things are going wrong. There are already major inverter suppliers with faulty products and there will probably be more, and this is inconvenient anyway, but some of them will go out of warranty before the problems show up. They're going to have a higher rate of products that don't have the longevity that they used to have. So if you do it for the money, calculate these things through and take conservative numbers especially if your energy prices have spiked their is a realistic chance they will recover somewhat and their are chances you will have to replace components of your installation long before you thought. If you want to do it to have a more reliable power supply, check with your supplier what is allowed in your state and if the system is designed for it. If you want to do it for nature, don't. It's very difficult and questionable in most situations if these installations will make our energy production more nature friendly, especially during this boom. Wait, this is creating huge infrastructure problems right now that not every energy provider is going to solve in the same way. Wait until it normalizes and then maybe look at what your local situation is. Overproduction during the sun and zero production during all other times does not really help with this problem. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- pravardhan · 2023-10-21 19:27 Booting my machines off of a PXE server ---------------------------------------------------------------------- carolina_balam · 2023-10-21 19:28 New youtube videos from channels I'm subbed to, like a feed, a list, whatever, just to see whaf new videos are posted by them ---------------------------------------------------------------------- rrrmmmrrrmmm · 2023-10-21 19:30 I like [the current default look](https://www.thunderbird.net/media/im g/thunderbird/new/screens/115-calendar.avif) but you can also apply themes. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- xupetas · 2023-10-21 19:31 physical space for more servers.

I know what NTP is and what it provides but I don't understand how you're connecting the dots from NTP to latency and ceph working better. How do they care what the NTP time is? And how is it any less useful than hosting your own NTP pointing to an upstream NTP?

I didn't even know these existed other than the top servers that scene releases go around on. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ZombieLinux · 2023-10-21 22:37 So with NTP, there is a latency from the upstream to the downstream servers. Jitter is how those updates can be at irregular intervals (+/- microseconds) and can throw off the time the hosts and the NTP server think is the correct one. If you host your own NTP server, you only have the jitter between your local hosts and local server to worry about. What is missing from this equation is the PPS signal. That DOESN'T come from an upstream server and can really only be generated locally. At a very low level, PPS is a VERY sharp square wave that signifies the start of a single second. Its really well disciplined and can keep a local NTP/PTP (IEEE 1588) server VERY close (+/- nanoseconds) Ceph doesn't really care what time it is, just that all the nodes in the cluster AGREE what time it is to as accurate as possible. Same for all the other aforementioned use cases. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- maksimkurb · 2023-10-21 22:38 You may check out eM Client.

I fully understand the importance for things that are literally designed around accurate timing, but I can't understand why anything just working at the TCP/IP level would care as long as it's roughly correct. They need to wait for responses to all the packets regardless of how long it took. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ithakaa · 2023-10-21 23:47 The NTP protocol accounts for drift ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ZombieLinux · 2023-10-21 23:51 Sure. It’s here in the ceph documentation. https://docs.ceph.com/en/reef/rados/configuration/mon-config- ref/#clock Assuming it’s TCP in the first place.

If you run a mix or bsd it’s a pain. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- jakkal732 · 2023-10-22 03:34 Your mom ---------------------------------------------------------------------- novistion · 2023-10-22 04:02 I’ve used mainspring for about two years. Haven’t really looked back. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- not-bot-3000 · 2023-10-22 05:26 Have you tried UpNote? https://getupnote.com/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- alexfornuto · 2023-10-22 05:54 Thanks, that looks neat. Still not what I'm looking for. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- BouncyPancake · 2023-10-22 06:44 A proper logging server. I'm just not motivated to learn a bunch of stuff right now sadly. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- DIBSSB · 2023-10-22 07:18 Thanks I am eating for Anytype.io for its full fledged selfhosted version As I am on ios I can’t compile their application It’s little weird like anyways it’s great solution might just need time for its front end to be selfhost able in docker Another one I found which was great was affine.pro almost everything but not ready yet For file management god need something fast and good like dsm drive application I am just thinking why haven’t people ported the app dsm drive in a docker yet unofficially ? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- NobodyRulesPenguins · 2023-10-22 07:21 A standalone Caldav/Cardav web client. Few exists, but most of the projects that I found are stopped ---------------------------------------------------------------------- FeZzko_ · 2023-10-22 08:34 Thanks a lot, I just tried it and it's awesome! :D ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Kir-01 · 2023-10-22 08:57 Is there a self-host option somewhere? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- pachirulis · 2023-10-22 09:40 If you survive the installation process ---------------------------------------------------------------------- electromichi3 · 2023-10-22 09:41 I have some youtubedl Script for this. This loads all Files from my Public Playlist And Check If IT IS already loaded. If not, it Starts to Download. Does Not use IT anymore since i have Spotify :) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- PizzaDevice · 2023-10-22 09:47 I'm missing a new-school DVR solution. (security cameras) The current ones are complex or freemiums. Feel free to suggest one you have tried. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- DanieloAvicado · 2023-10-22 09:49 Just switched to Borg+ Borgmatic, super nice tools! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- allen9667 · 2023-10-22 11:48 A Good SSO+LDAP solution that has modern UI and an easy web interface for administrating. Looked at Authentik, Authelia and Keycloak, all have too dated UI, and are too complicated for a home setup. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- fmillion · 2023-10-22 11:49 I'd love some sort of tool that just auto downloads every YouTube video I watch and presents them in a custom interface sortable and searchable. Even better if it works with the mobile apps. Too often I think of some video I watched ages ago and it's gone or too hard to find even with YouTube's history view. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Professional-Swim-69 · 2023-10-22 13:14 Fastest way in the planet to get a BGP lab running, (once you have the infra ready) https://github.com/ipspace/netlab ---------------------------------------------------------------------- damn_the_bad_luck · 2023-10-22 13:33 Just buy another new computer... you'll figure out something to install on it! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- mancaveit · 2023-10-22 13:55 Proper map service of quality e.g. [https://github.com/alyssaxuu/mapus#installing- mapus](https://github.com/alyssaxuu/mapus#installing-mapus) but with SELF SELF-hosted DB instead of firebase crap. Self-hostedSELF-hosted QR code generation service that doesn't harvest your data and has all functions e.g. https://imgur.com/a/ShdYt3W ---------------------------------------------------------------------- not-bot-3000 · 2023-10-22 14:43 Crap. Forgot what sub I was in. No there’s not. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Kir-01 · 2023-10-22 15:48 No problem :) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- skibare87 · 2023-10-22 16:30 JBOD. i have 3 five bay synology boxes and would love to just have a 4u jbod to add to my dell r3930 rack server. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Deadlydragon218 · 2023-10-22 17:01 I have come across this myself but lack the images ---------------------------------------------------------------------- willquill · 2023-10-22 20:50 Yes ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Wilczus · 2023-10-22 21:30 I think some people said that already but why not NextCloud for file management? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- [deleted] · 2023-10-22 21:47 [removed] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- TeraBot452 · 2023-10-22 23:33 I use roundcube for webmail, rainloop works really well but roundcube looks better. It seems to work fine, it has built-in filter support with sieve as well. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- kennethklee · 2023-10-23 01:30 sip phone server. then bridge to phone app or matrix or discord or telegram or WhatsApp I've got a data only SIM. sip client running on phone drains battery and isn't reliable. would like the sip client on my home lab. then notify and connect calls to me ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Broadband- · 2023-10-23 05:10 Outlook (new) which replaces the free Mail app on windows FINALLY has IMAP support and I'm really enjoying it. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- DIBSSB · 2023-10-23 05:50 It’s slow for me and I don’t like the ui ---------------------------------------------------------------------- jogai-san · 2023-10-23 05:57 Neither, webapp like gmail, but selfhosted, since we're here... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- UlyssesZhan · 2023-10-23 05:57 I know Nextcloud has such a feature but I have not tried it. Have you? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- jogai-san · 2023-10-23 05:59 I'm using that currently ---------------------------------------------------------------------- its_jetblack · 2023-10-23 06:41 Have you tried Joplin? It's markdown, stored in text so you are not locked in. You can self host their own sync server option or any other webdav etc will do. It has clients on most platforms. And if you're not into markdown just switch the editor to wysiwyg. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- its_jetblack · 2023-10-23 06:44 I've had some good results with checkmk. They have a free community edition. The agents are easy to roll out. Didn't take long to tweak a couple of rules to avoid false positives with alerts. It has a nice web GUI and I'm getting my alerts to slack. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Kir-01 · 2023-10-23 06:58 I never tried it but it seems one of the best option around there, so I'll give it a try! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- its_jetblack · 2023-10-23 07:01 Yeah, I did a lot of research when I moved off Evernote and Joplin seemed the best option for me. The clients might not be as polished but I haven't looked back a single time after a year. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Deadlydragon218 · 2023-10-24 15:50 Sweet thanks! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ScratchinCommander · 2023-10-25 00:36 No problem. It has a good community on Discord if you need any help getting started. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- SublimeMudTime · 2023-10-28 23:05 Want some tax free money to buy more toys?

I had a lot of time and had donated plasma twice a week before getting busy this fall. Pulled in $3070 over 42 donations / 21 weeks and I don't have to pay tax on it as they are giving me an in-kind $ donation for my plasma donation.
