+1 for Avelon, my favourite Lemmy client!

How do you facilitate remote access? in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world
[–] Vake@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I just have all my services exposed through reverse proxy with whatever authentication they have on their webpage. I see most people using VPN which I know is the more secure option but I like the zero setup of just typing in the name of the service I want to go to and just having it work. Is there a better way to secure this?

This is my favourite app for Lemmy and I never hear it mentioned?!

Wondering what software you’re running to have all the storage managed and then your containers and things on top? Is it all on the 730XD?

I ended up using caddy-docker-proxy because the vanilla Caddyfile method was giving me some trouble with my internal docker hostnames. This container just lets you add some labels to your other containers in your docker compose file and then works out the proxy for you, so long as you’ve made the appropriate DNS records.

I had a look through my bookmarks and found this great writeup. This goes into a lot of detail and talks about a lot of services which might be a bit confronting. Honestly, searching for smaller piece by piece guides for installing this service or that service and slowly building out your projects is a good way to go.

This is Heimdall. You can add your apps and links to them and then link their API to show statuses.

I have some custom CSS on top of it which I found with a couple of quick searches.

I previously (and sort of still do) ran my homelab on a Raspberry Pi 4B with 4GB of RAM. That lab still exists but I recently picked up an Orange Pi 5B with 8GB of RAM and have been building out my services from scratch.

This time I thought I would do it properly with a reverse proxy through Caddy and email notifications, neither of which I made use of before.

It’s improved my experience so much! Being able to access my services from beyond my network without necessarily having to be connected to my VPN is great. My goal is to spin up my own Mastodon and Lemmy instances but it’s sort of a bit daunting to work out hosting them inside of Docker like the rest of my services. If anyone has any good guides or suggestions I would be interested.

Also looking for suggestions on ways to add some mass storage to this setup, I previously used a Drobo 5N2 but a quick google will tell you the way that company went.

What do you drive?

Apple Music or Spotify? what do you use and why? in c/apple_enthusiast@lemmy.world
[–] Vake@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Apple Music, I listen to lots of unreleased music and iCloud Music Library works so much better than Spotify Local Files. Also just works with all my devices. I don’t love the UI sometimes but it is improving with every update. I don’t really use new music recommendations often but whenever I make a station I usually find it’s ok?
