With the recent discussions around replacing Spotify with selfhosted services and the possibilities to obtain the music itself, I’ve been finally setting up Navidrome. I had to do quite a bit of reorganization to do with my existing collection (beets helping a ton) but now it’s in a neatly organized structure and I’m enjoying it everywhere. I get most of my stuff from Bandcamp but I have a big catalog from when I’ve still had a large physical collection.
I’m also still working on my docker quasi gitops stack. I’ve cleaned up my compose files and put the secrets in env files where I hadn’t already, checked them into my new forgejo instance and (mostly) configured renovate. Komodo is about to get productive but I couldn’t find the time yet. Also I need to figure out how to check in secrets in a secure way. I know some but I haven’t tried those with Komodo yet. This close of my fully automated update-on-merge compose stacks!
I’ve also been doing these for quite a while and decided to sometimes post them in !selfhosting@slrpnk.net to possibly help moving a bit from the biggest Lemmy instance, even though this community as it is is perfectly fine as well as it seems.
What’s going on on your servers? Anything you are trying to pursue at the moment?
I’m a newbie to the whole selfhosting thing. Been doing NAS+minipc for past 6 months with a few services running. 2 days ago I embarresed myself.
So, I been running 5 services on nginx proxy manager. But I heard that NPMplus is slightly better and can renew certs automatically. I had transferred settings from NPM to NPMplus by hand off the photo and for some reason NPMplus couldn’t work with services ran on NAS. I went back to NPM and haven’t touched the issue til last Sunday.
During troubleshooting I found out that my dumb ass didnt pay attention and put ‘’:‘’ instead of ‘’." . So 192.168.xxx.xx became 192:168:xxx:xx and that was the reason I spent whole day troubleshooting the issue.
Next goal: go back to my homeland and set Pi3 at my parent’s place to be my VPN so I can setup an arr stack and automate media downloads in a way that govt. of my current residence couldn’t put a deep hole in my wallet.
Do your parents live in a place where that won’t happen?
For auto renewing certs: You can do that easily with the normal nginx, using certbot alongside it. Just tell certbot to handle the domain once and it will renew it forever.
Yes. Kind of. It is in EU but afaik piracy is not an illegal thing there yet or is not enforced as much compared to where I live now.
Too late. NPMplus is up and running. Also, I like dark mode.
