@GreenKnight23 @theselfhoster Yes. I wouldn’t even question it.

@possiblylinux127 @ikidd Something sounds wrong there. I exclusively use LXC containers because I loathe docker and my containers boot basically instantly, and the networking is rock-solid.

@lent9004 @asbestos Holy crap, that looks like an awesome way to use Fresh. Thanks for posting it.

@gedaliyah If you’re not married to managed cloud services, services like rsync.net or a Hetzner storage box work very well. They require more effort, but you have complete control and can do some fun things (like using rclone’s crypt module with them). Plus rsync.net is super useful if your sources use ZFS.

Of the cloud providers, Backblaze is the one that anecdotally seems most popular.

@Lemjukes @Sunny It’s a KVM that you access over IP. It’s physically plugged into a machine’s HDMI and USB ports so, unlike software solutions, it can be used to access the BIOS/UEFI and system functions prior to hitting the desktop (like login managers and recovery consoles), and allows you to boot other operating systems and the like. It can also act as a PXE host for loading disk images, issue Wake On LAN to its connected machine, and likely a bunch of other convenience functions.

@madcaesar @otl It’s a small server running OpenBSD, configured to operate as a router and/or firewall.

Linux and the *BSDs can operate as very good routers and firewalls, usually being much more configurable and enabling you to do more complex than off-the-shelf consumer-level hardware routers. Using them on a small form factor computer with a cheap switch in front of them can give you a better performing and nicer to use alternative.

@squidspinachfootball @marcos Syncthing syncs. It does one way syncs, but if your workflow is complex and depends on one way syncs that’s probably not what you want.

Sync things between operational systems, then replicate to nonoperational systems, and backup to off site segregated systems.

@MonkCanatella Oh, this looks good!

My current solution is VSCode with Dendron and Excalidraw self-hosted using coder.com’s code-server. It’s not perfect, but fits well enough for me as a knowledge management system.

If someone repackages AnyType as a web app I can self-host in a similar way, I’ll be over the moon.

@MigratingtoLemmy @poVoq exactly what a bot would say 🤔

@railsdev @innercitadel Do you not write your web apps in assembler…?

@sambal @kat I do the same with AWS Glacier. Rclone’s crypt module is magic.

I’d prefer to not use Amazon or any of the other tech giants but nowhere else has a comparable or comparably priced equivalent to Glacier.
