@kuketzblog Der Grund, warum ich auf #selfhosted Lösungen setze ist tatsächlich nicht Misstrauen in einfachere Lösungen wie Signal, sondern der Wunsch nach Autonomie.

Gerade in handelspolitsch angespannter Lage könnte es aus meiner bescheidenen Sicht ein Fehler sein, zu glauben, dass der eine dem anderen nicht den Stecker vom Support zieht. Verschlüsselung in allen Ehren, aber FALLS die irre Orange sagen würde, "Geoblockt die EU", dann geht bei uns einfach nix mehr. Deshalb #selfhost

🥳 Manyfold v0.108.0 is out, with a new write API; now you can edit your Manyfold metadata* from your own code! We're really excited to see what you all do with it!

* More advanced features like managing problems, permissions and file uploads are still to come, so stay tuned!

Meine private Infrastruktur für mich & meine Friends hat mittlerweile fast alle US-Dienste abgelöst:

✅ eigenes Mediacenter für Filme, Serien & Hörbücher
✅ eigener Mailserver
✅ eigene Nextcloud

Jetzt fehlt eigentlich nur noch ein Ersatz für Spotify...

This silly webpage I made for my home server has made me much happier than I expected. If you self-host a bunch of stuff, I suggest you do the same! Hugo template called Lynx. Runs in a container on Caddy, so it’s reachable without internet. #SelfHosted

Nextcloud (PHP) vs OpenCloud (Go)

lemmy.ml/post/28485942

lemmy.mlNextcloud (PHP) vs OpenCloud (Go) - LemmyAs Nextcloud [https://nextcloud.com/] advanced with progresses making it competitive in fully integrated government and corporate workflows, OpenCloud [https://opencloud.eu/en] is getting more and more attention. The fact, that both are collaborative cloud plattforms, designed to be selfhosted and mainly developed in/around Berlin from FOSS-Community-Surroundings, makes one ask about the differences. ### The main difference I see, is the software stack - Nextcloud, as a fork of ownCloud, kept the PHP code base and is still mainly developing in PHP - OpenCloud, also a fork of ownCloud, did a complete rewrite in Go [https://go.dev/] Until know, Nextcloud is far more feature complete (yes I know, people complain, they should fix more bugs instead of bringing new features) than OpenCloud, if we compair it with comercial cometitors like MS Teams. ### I like Nextcloud! I deploy it for various groups, teams, associations, when ever they need something where they want to have fileshare, calendar, contacts and tasks in one place. Almost every time, when I show them the functionality of Nextcloud Groups an the sharing-possibilities, people are thrilled about it, because they didn’t expect such a feature rich tool. Although I sometimes wish it would be more performant and easier to maintain, so non-tech-people could care for their hosting themselves. ### Why OpenCloud? Now, with OpenCloud, I am asking my self, why not just contribute to the existing colab-cloud project Nextcloud. Why do your own thing? ### Questions So here I expect the Go as a somewhat game-changer (?). As you may have noticed, that I am not a developer or programmer, so maybe there are obvious advantages of that. - Will OpenCloud, at some point, outreach Nextclouds feature completeness and performance, thanks to a more modern approach with Go? - Will Nextcloud with their huge php stack run into problems in the future, because they cant compete with more modern architectures? - If you would have to deploy a selfhosted cloud environment for a ~500 people organization lasting long term: Would you stick to the goo old working php stack or see possible advantages in the future of the OpenCloud approach? Thanks :)

Argh! I thought it would be easy and simple to set up a #selfhosted web server and create a small site to enter inventory data, save to a database and display it in a report from. But no, hours spent just trying to figure out what to use. Ugh

Lately I've been doing more #SelfHosting again due to the current situation. Of course, I'm paying particular attention to power consumption and noise. After good experiences with the #ARM64 architecture, even with power-hungry applications such as Mastodon, I'm now using the smartphone technology for my homeservers, too.

There are #SBCs with more open hardware, but the #RaspberryPi is widely available, well documented, powerful and inexpensive. And it is available with up to 16 GB of RAM.

Anyone operating a server on the Internet must install #security updates quickly. However, many people forget to restart running software so that the new version runs instead of the old one. The #needrestart tool helps with this on Debian-based Linux systems, which unfortunately is usually not pre-installed.

On my Raspberry Pi 4, needrestart always runs correctly (automatically after apt upgrade). On my Raspberry Pi 5, however, I first had to create a configuration file as described by the main developer here:
github.com/liske/needrestart/b
Previously, the tool always claimed that a reboot was necessary because it thought an outdated Linux kernel was running.

Next, I want to activate #LUKS hard drive encryption on both raspis. Unfortunately, this is not as easy under #Raspbian or #RaspberryPiOS as on other Debian systems. If you have managed this: Please let me know how you did it!
