It’s been a while, let’s go! Any major fuckups lately or smooth sailing?
I had to change the local DNS setup yesterday. I finally installed my wife Linux Mint and wanted to set her up for Vaultwarden real quick which became an hour long debug session since apparently CNAME entries for hostnames don’t work as I thought. Never came up the recent year as all my machines took it, but resolved refused to and so I eventually deleted the entries in the Pihole and created them as A records pointing to the VM with the reverse proxy, hoping I won’t need to change the IP anytime soon. It’s always DNS!
In other news I think I moved all my local dockered services to forgejo+komodo now and applying updates by merging renovate MRs still feels super smooth. I just updated my calibre web automated with a single click. Only exception is home assistant where I have yet to find a good split in what to throw in a docker volume and what to check in git and bindmount.
Moved all my Unraid ‘apps’ to Dockhand, and linked my Pangolin VPS with the Hawser agent. I had Dockge for a while on newer container deployments, but wanted something a bit more playful, Dockhand is it.
I degoogled my GMail last year to Infomaniak, which was OK, but moved to Fastmail last week, which I now love! Setting the custom domain pulled in the sites favicon for the Fastmail account header, which made me smile too much for such a simple thing. Think I’ll be on Fastmail for the future.
