  • What is a self-hosted app/os/service/ect

    Just what…?? smh

    Another genious post from you was recently:

    What switch would be good to run openWRT on that is proven reliable and resource capable? It would need at least 10x 1Gb ports, but I guess more would be better to use link aggregation. I only have 1.2 Gbs upload speed so I don't need anything too industrial.
    
    I'm looking to spend under $500 on one and I'm perfectly willing to buy used from eBay. (I got my supermicro board and xeon and ecc ram used there for my NAS and they've been going great for a couple years now.)
    

    And then you deleted it.

    I was looking into Tailscale which I thought to be complexly open source, but it turns out that their coordination server is closed source. If you want to run your own open source coordination server, Headscale is the go-to option.

    Yes, so if you want to fully selfhost Tailscale, use Headcale. Whats the problem?

    that I had always been told by people that Tailscale was fully open source.

    Stop listening to “those people” then.

    This got me wondering what else is not as open source as people widely accept it to be?

    Portainer Business Edition (afaik) isnt open source but the Community Edition is.




  • I am having a heck of a time editing my Dashy yaml file. There is a json text editor, I truly can’t wrap my head around the syntax it’s absurd. Sorry if you like json.

    Huh what? YAML or JSON? They are not the same.

    I can’t ssh because I don’t know the logins and was never prompted to set any.

    You cant ssh into your own host? What? Why are you trying to “ssh into Dashy”?!

    Even if I could, the guides are all set for docker and I really don’t know where I would go other than blindly listing directories until I stumbled on it.

    And the problem with that is…? Youre not even mentioning how you have installed Dashy. Is it in a LXC? In a VM? If you run it in either, then YOU will have the login details. How should Dashy provide those to you?!

    Nothing here makes much sense, and top of all, this here is neither /r/DashySupport or /r/YAMLJSONSupport etc.

    Maybe ask Dashy for Dashy support? -> https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/discussions











  • As example, some software pushes out updates that can (and sometimes will) break your setup.

    Of course nobody pushes out something like that on purpose to mess with users. But mistakes happen all the time. And even if the dont, some version upgrades require the user to take manual steps, when these are ignored and with something like Watchtower just blindly upgraded, setups can and very likely will break.

    Imo its not worth the very short amount of time saved by automatic-updates versus the amount of time it costs to fix such a mess when it occurs.

    For example, NPM (Nginx Proxy Manager) had a update months ago that broke many users setups. They of course did warn about this in the changenotes, but i remember people here on sub saying “well damn i used watchtower and it updated npm overnight and i wake up and nothing works anymore, took me hours to figure out the reason and fix it”.
