If you just want to track your data for yourself, without the social media features (like Strava has), I would recommend Opentracks.

So this woman is jailed for live streaming the truth?

I think they could add a tag system, where the user enters their interests as a tag and then Loops shows all the content that shares the same tag.

Yes, it’s more effort than TikTok, which automatically guesses what your interests are, but I think it’s still a good, privacy friendly alternative.

I use it to manage my documents, backup my photos from my phone to my server and access all my files from any other device. Basically Nextcloud is my replacement for OneDrive.

Additionally, I have used it in the past to collaborate on various group projects which require documents. For example, I had to make a presentation with some other people and I could create a PowerPoint in Nextcloud, send a share link to others and then we could edit the PowerPoint in realtime with Nextcloud + Collabora, which is pretty cool. It’s the only FOSS alternative (at least as far as I’m aware of) that can compete with Microsoft 365 / Google Workspaces.

Honestly, I’m not really excited about the past couple of major Nextcloud releases.

Mainly because there’s still one big issue for small-scale Nextcloud servers: performance.

Mainly the web UI is still too slow for me to properly use, which is why I don’t use it at all (unless I have to update an app).

It’s a bit disappointing that they’re mainly focused on the large enterprise customers instead of small hobbyists like me, but it’s still understandable; after all, their income is mainly from the enterprise customers, not from selfhosters.

I also don’t really like how they’ve jumped on the AI hypetrain instead of improving performance. But once again, I guess this generates more income for them than focusing on other things like improving performance.

Depends.

If there are no external volumes and the container is in its own network without any other containers, then any malware in the container shouldn’t be able to reach / affect the host server, because it’s isolated.

Docker is a container manager, but that doesn’t say anything if you don’t know what containers are.

Containers are basically isolated apps. For example, take something like Nextcloud. Nextcloud can run in a Docker container, which means that it runs in an isolated environment completely separated from the user’s system. If Nextcloud breaks, the user’s server won’t be affected at all, because it’s running isolated.

Why is this useful? Well, it’s useful because dependencies and such automatically update. Nextcloud for example, is dependent on PHP and if you install Nextcloud directly on your server, you’ll need to ensure that PHP 8 has been installed and set up properly. If PHP (or the required PHP extensions) aren’t properly installed, Nextcloud won’t work. Or, maybe if there’s a Nextcloud update that requires a new version of PHP (PHP 9 or 10 in the future), you’ll have to manually update PHP to the newer version.

All that dependency management is completely gone with containers. The container itself automatically installs and sets up a proper environment for the app that’s running. So in the case of Nextcloud, the PHP binaries, extensions, and all the other stuff is all automatically included without the developer having to do anything at all. Just run one command and your entire Nextcloud instance is automatically updated.

I’d first recommend that you think about what you need.

What do you need? Do you want a safe space to back up your photos & videos from your phone? Or maybe a way to stream your movies, series and/or music in a cheap way?

Once you figure out what you want to host, you can look into which program can fulfill your needs. Check out the awesome-selfhosted list for a HUGE amount of services you could host.

You could try making a symlink, so that there is a ‘file’ in the Nextcloud directory which points to the Immich gallery, although I’m not sure how good it truly works.

Does this also apply to linuxserver/nextcloud image? Because that’s what I’m using.

Just looked through it and I’m considering to switch!

I was wondering though, is there support for debugging sessions like VSCodium has? And what about remote development, SSH, docker integration and WSL2?

Also, can Pulsar run, inspect and debug (unit) tests?

I’m using Calibre-Web

Why does this need 3 mariadb containers?

My ELI5 version:

Basically, the ‘Web Environment Integrity’ proposal is a new technique that verifies whether a visitor of a website is actually a human or a bot.

Currently, there are captchas where you need to select all the crosswalks, cars, bicycles, etc. which checks whether you’re a bot, but this can sometimes be bypassed by the bots themselves.

This new ‘Web Environment Integrity’ thing goes as follows:

1. You visit a website
2. Website wants to know whether you’re a human or a bot.
3. Your browser (or the ‘client’) will send request an ‘environment attestation’ from an ‘attester’. This means that your browser (such as Firefox or Chrome) will request approval from some third-party (like Google or something) and the third-party (which is referred to as ‘attester’) will send your browser a message, which basically says ‘This user is a bot’ or ‘This user is a human being’.
4. Your browser receives this message and will then send it to the website, together with the ‘attester public key’. The ‘attester public key’ can be used by the website to verify whether the attester (a.k.a. the third-party checking whether you’re a human or not) is trustworthy and will then check whether the attester says that you’re a human or not.

I hope this clears things up and if I misinterpreted the GitHub explainer, please correct me.

The reason people (rightfully) worry about this, is because it gives attesters A LOT of power. If Google decides they don’t like you, they won’t tell the website that you’re a human. Or maybe, if Google doesn’t like the website you’re trying to visit, they won’t even cooperate with attesting. Lots of things can go wrong here.

Ah ok. Well anyway, maybe add protocols such as HTTP, HTTPS, TCP, UDP, SMTP, IMAP, POP3, SSL, VPN, Git, TLS, SQL.

Is this exclusive to acronyms related to self hosting or also just general acronyms, such as TMI, PLS, YSK, TIL, etc.

Thank you for your comment.

What do you mean with the http layer? I’m already automatically redirecting from HTTP to HTTPS.

Before you set up Collabora, you should know that the rendering is done server-side and not client-side. This provides really good synchronization, as the clients will receive the changes simultaneously, but it also results into slower performance, because the server has to do the rendering, instead of the clients.

The problem with OnlyOffice is that it doesn’t allow for editing from Android, because then you’ll have to pay, which is why I switched to Collabora Office.
