Thank fuck I just renewed mine. Hopefully this shitshow of a country will be slightly less of a shitshow by the time I have to get another.

This is why I will never let my TVs connect to my network, there’s a reason they’re so cheap nowdays.

This is my exact setup! I love symfonium because it lets me download specific playlists that I want to have at all times (in case of bad cell service), and feishin for my laptop/desktop where offline downloads aren’t a concern.

I am still keeping an eye on Tempus though, if it gets good enough I might swap over since it’d be one less google play store app.

I just use a WireGuard VPN. Makes it so much more simpler. At this point I don’t think I’ll ever expose anything to the public internet, seems like too much of a headache.

Running Grapheneos right? Running Grapheneos right?

Laundry day must be a bitch

Didn’t find no cow, found a lot of coc tho

If you go with a subsonic server like navidrome, you could pair that with something like Symfonium (paid, and only available on google play unfortunately). That’s what I do currently, until something better comes along (Tempus is starting to look nice!)

I do this as well lol, although on my phone I go one whimsical step further and offline cache the music from my navidrome server.

I went with a SciFi ship theme, my main server is VMS-HORIZON (Virtual Machine Ship). The VMs have ship component names like AUDIO-CORE (navidrome) and VISUAL-CORE (Immich).

My Raspberry Pi is named ORBITER, like a orbiting shuttle/satellite, and the VM it has is called BEACON (for Gotify)

THANK YOU! My brain literally pronounced it like that and I came to see if anyone else commented it lol

I know, I only kid. Tbh I’m actually somewhat considering trying it out, I’ve been on Bazzite for a few months now after distro hopping a bunch, but I’ve heard good things and I’m curious now lol

Rookie move, should’ve gone with Bazzite, all the cool gamer kids such as myself* use it!

*Disclaimer: I am neither cool nor a kid lol.

Welcome! You better pick a favorite Linux distro to argue about in the comments :D

I second Beszel, it’s such a clean interface, and I can also have it send alerts through Gotify if my shit breaks!

Literally this, our daughter watches YouTube kids and we constantly block shitty channels that come up. Raising your kids properly means actually paying attention to what they’re doing :)

You found a fantastic band to get into! My wife and I are bummed Ghost’s current tour is done, we went to four of them because the production value of their latest tour was so damn good.

Love me some DIY ravioli

Hell yeah

The comments give some great advice on what to self host, but my advice to you before you start spinning up a million services is to DOCUMENT EVERYTHING.

Seriously, document as you go and you will thank yourself later. Document niche commands you found online that worked, docker compose files, IP addresses/hostnames, where you put that random config file.

There are some great self hosted wiki and documentation products out there, start with that, then build the fun stuff!
