Selfhosted@lemmy.world•where to move for cheap VPS?English
1·2 months agoHad to scroll too far down to find this. OVH is great, VPSes are cheap & reliable. Oh, and bandwidth is unlimited… arrr 🏴☠️

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Sources to purchase mp3s?English
4·3 months agoI used to buy from Beatport when I was actively djing. Nice because the tracks are available in 320kbps or lossless. No idea how much Beatport’s cut is though

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Securing a 'public' service for familyEnglish
1·3 months agounethical life pro tip, but you can use the free tier of Cloudflare tunnels + Access to accomplish this. While technically against the ToS, I have been doing this with jellyfin for an over a year now, I don’t cache anything, and my overall bandwidth usage is low it’s probably not very noticeable. If I get banned at some point I’ll just create a new free account ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Self-hosted blog - do I need a static IP address?English
2·4 months agoSurprised nobody has mentioned cloudflare ddns. If you registered your domain with cloudflare, you can use the api or qdm12’s (author of gluetun) ddns-updater to keep your A/AAAA records up to date.
It’s definitely doable. I run both gluetun & tailscale in separate docker containers on Ubuntu. The trick here is that gluetun should get /dev/net/tun device (basically the default example in the project readme) and tailscale should he configured (via env vars) to run in userspace mode
To be fair there is a tvOS app in development but progress is slow because the whole project is maintained by a small handful of volunteers. They’ve put out a call for help and the maintainers post updates here

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•That's all folks, Plex is starting to charge for sharingEnglish
221·7 months agoIt was only a matter of time. Plex is a Series C startup, employs 100+ people, and has taken substantial VC investment. Those investors are expecting exponential returns, and a “one-time lifetime payment” will never sustain that sort of growth

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Cloudflare Tunnel AlternativesEnglish
5·7 months agoYes, unless you use a provider that doesn’t have bandwidth caps; I personally use OVH for that reason
Unethical life pro tip, but I use the free tier of Cloudflare tunnels and Cloudflare access to gate access to my jellyfin instance. This is technically against their TOS but I don’t cache anything and my bandwidth usage is low so it’s probably not too noticeable. I’ll update this post if I get banned at some point 🤡

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Plex is locking remote streaming behind a subscription in AprilEnglish
232·8 months agoSo basically… this is a blatant cash grab, and a nearly 200% one depending on the level of service you pay/paid for. Wonder how long it will be before the lifetime pass is discontinued and everyone gets forcibly moved over to a monthly subscription model

Technology@lemmy.world•*Permanently Deleted*English
261·9 months agoThis perfectly illustrates America’s 2-tiered justice system: one for the wealthy and one for the little people. If I torrent copyrighted material, I risk fines/jail-time. If a big corporation like meta does it, then it’s allegedly “fair use”. To be clear, what OpenAI is requesting isn’t remotely close to the original intended purpose of fair use. Worst part is that small/independent creators will (if they aren’t already) be most adversely impacted by such selective application of copyright law

Open Source@lemmy.ml•What projects does the opensource world lack
1·9 months agoA self-hosted photo/video viewer which presents itself as an Open Directory that maps closely to the underlying file system and also includes the ability to view images and stream videos. If videos are too large/incompatible with the user’s browser, they should be transcoded on the fly (optionally with the gpu). Genuinely surprised something like this doesn’t exist

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Least terrible domain registrarsEnglish
6·9 months agoSame, I also use Cloudflare dns, tunnels, and pages. Having these all in the same place makes it easy to deploy/keep track of everything

2·9 months agoI see this being useful for senior/assisted living care. This isn’t a job many people want to do, doesn’t pay well, and requires ungodly amounts of patience

2·9 months agoOh yeah don’t get me wrong I love nicotine+ too! I figured I’d link to slskd since this is the selfhosted community after all 🙃

6·9 months agoI’m not a fan of YouTube’s audio compression algorithm (optimized for saving google’s bandwidth but sounds awful on higher fidelity audio setups). If quality is a concern, I can’t recommend slskd enough

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Landing page for all my servicesEnglish
3·9 months agoI use wiki.js in the linuxserver.io flavor. I have 3 URLs for every service I run: public, LAN, and tailscale url. My “homepage” is a big markdown table with links to all the services. It’s not pretty by any means, but it’s very functional











How is this better than/different from something like kavita
