I'm sure you're already aware, but the framework laptop includes toggles for mic and camera. I'm a big fan of the laptops in general because of the upgradability and ease of repair.

Notes taking app in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

I've been using Carnet for note-taking, which is a nextcloud plugin. It has been a great replacement for Google keep, but it's really buggy. How has your experience with Nextcloud Notes been?

Yeah, I'm hoping it will clear up with time as other commenters have suggested!

Thank you for the input, I'll keep an eye on it and hope it fixes itself with time.

Sorting by hot includes very old posts (lemmy.donmcgin.com)
 

Hello all! I am posting from my own self hosted instance, running 0.18.0, but this issue existed in 0.17.4 as well. When sorting posts from my subscribed communities by Hot, I will get a handful of newer posts, followed by an entire page or two of old posts going as far back as 4 years (not with new comments), before finally seeing fresh posts again. Thus far I have been scrolling past all the ancient posts every time I open lemmy (both through Firefox and jerboa) and going straight to the fresh content, but since the issue wasn't resolved with the new release I'm wondering if anyone knows what is causing this behavior and if there is a fix. Thank you!

Self Hosted Lemmy instance comments terribly out of sync? in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world
[–] ElGringoLoco@lemmy.donmcgin.com 1 points 1 year ago

I had a similar problem that ended up having to do with my server's language settings. I didn't realize you can select more than just "Undetermined" by holding down shift or ctrl. So everything tagged as English didn't appear until I went back and fixed it. You can read the whole odyssey here: https://lemmy.ml/post/1205767

Safer to host NPM on a VPS? in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world
[–] ElGringoLoco@lemmy.donmcgin.com 0 points 1 year ago

I've definitely heard bad things about Oracle deleting people's machines without warning. Unfortunately I don't know anything about Ionos. I may go with Linode, their cheapest VPS at $5/month has a 1TB transfer limit, which I might stay under. But please let me know if you end up finding a decent option from a reliable company!

I've definitely thought about it, and I would if it were just me. I share some services with family and I don't want to be responsible for troubleshooting if they accidentally uninstall tailscale or reset their phones

For sure, I think Oracle has unlimited bandwidth even in it's free tier. Ionos is one that I was looking at, fairly cheap but also offers unlimited transfer

Thank you for explaining and for the examples, it's definitely time to start learning caddy. I liked npm for the simple gui, but security and reliability are more important

Are you sure it's abandoned? The docker page was last updated three days ago and there is activity on the github page. Are they just updating the software without pushing any security fixes? I've definitely not had issues renewing certificates

Thank you! It does seem like there are afforadable VPS options that don't limit traffic anyway, so I might as well start there.

Will Authelia break federation for my lemmy instance? (lemmy.donmcgin.com)
 

Basically what the title says. I'm assuming the answer is yes, because I would be able to fetch data but no other server would be able to fetch anything from me. So maybe I could browse other instances but not comment or post in any of them? Thanks!

Safer to host NPM on a VPS? (lemmy.donmcgin.com)
 

Greetings! I currently host a number of services on an old pc in my basement. I have ports 80 and 443 forwarded and am running Nginx Proxy Manager as well as Authelia to protect most of them. I have set up a lemmy instance that I am using as my main point of access to the fediverse. I guess I have two questions. I am assuming that hiding lemmy behind Authelia would break Federation (although maybe only one way?), is that correct? And secondly, would it be objectively safer for me to pay for a VPS, run Nginx Proxy Manager there and then forward all of the traffic to the services hosted in my basement server using Tailscale? Thanks!

Self hosted docker instance not fetching new posts and comments (lemmy.donmcgin.com)
 

Hey all, just wondering if I'm missing something or just have a fundamental misunderstanding of how federation works. I spun up a small docker instance for myself in order to interact with federated lemmy without bogging down the existing servers. I am noticing that although I am subscribed to a lot of communities, some of them don't seem to be updating. I know that my instance will only fetch new posts and comments from the communities I'm subscribed to, but even those are not being updated. Some communities seem to be working, but others just aren't updating. Is there a requirement that I'm not meeting to be able to fetch new data? Appreciate any ideas, thank you!
