Here’s some tools i used and my experience with them

• beets: very powerful CLI tool. Has a learning curve but can go through your whole music folder, automatically tag stuff it is confident in and prompt you when it’s not sure.
• musicbrainz picard: really powerful gui. Can add a bunch of folders, group them by album and have it detect the right albums.
• kde kid3: simple gui app that if all you’re looking for is basic tag input then it makes it super easy to manually tag a bunch of content all at the same time.

I personally used all three of these. Beets as first pass that got me pretty far. Music brainz to fill in a lot of holes. And kid3 when i just wanted to do a bunch of manual updates

8080 is a common default port number so make sure to always check those when deploying something new

This is what i do via acme.sh with the letsencrypt DNS-01 challenge. I have a cron job scheduled to renew/deploy

Thanks, I’ll take a look!

Out of curiosity what wiki are you hosting? I have a community that we were thinking about moving our docs to a wiki to be more accessible to non tech savvy people wanting to contribute

Well you’re in self-hosting so if you don’t know docker yet, you’ll get the advantage of learning it. It will open up many self hosting opportunities.

For me one advantage is just one central place for all my containers. I don’t know how the package center handles storage but the docker version you’d have clear and easy access to the storage mount and would be able to make backups before big migrations, and you could set it up on a new server in the future. Imo there’s just no reason to use the package center one unless youre not very tech savvy and don’t want to learn anything else related to self hosting. I’m just assuming package center is easier in that regard but again i haven’t used it.

Also, when there are critical CVEs like the nextjs one found this past week allowing RCE then yeah, you want your stuff as up to date as possible. You don’t want to have to wait an unknown number of days for a downstream version to get updated. Docker let’s you get your updates straight from the source

Fair enough, i mostly use symfonium so same thing since both jellyfin/navidrome support subsonic API. I do like using the navidrome web ui on PC though

I haven’t gotten to hosting my own wiki, but i do host an internal-only personal knowledge static site built with hugo. I have it set to build the site on my server which then serves it. Very useful to have something like that or a wiki.

Nice! I haven’t dug into the API yet. The big thing for me was actually pretty small feature but tandoor let’s me scale recipes up and down on the fly with just a click of a button. I couldn’t find that in Mealie. We do a lot of home cooking for guests and large parties so being able to quickly see the portions and scale a recipe up/down saves a lot of mental math or errors.

Edit: though looking at mealie demo again i see some recipes let you adjust the serving. But others do not.

Edit 2: seems to be related when ingredients aren’t parsed

• media: jellyfin for videos, navidrome for music
• photos: immich
• game servers: +1 to foundryvtt if you’re into tabletop rpgs. While the core software isn’t open source, most systems are, and the pf2e system in particular is the best virtual tabletop experience you’ll have on any platform.
• recipes: i settled on tandoor. Very much a fan of it.
• if you’re a data nerd then chartdb for database diagraming, and cloudbeaver for database management

I much prefer navidrome for music over jellyfin. Better presentation and usage, tracks meaningful data and displays it by default, and won’t delete your music library data if a folder gets moved. In other words jellyfin just gets rid of that data but navidrome will track missing songs and make you explicitly confirm removing them from the database.

I have mine only internal so i haven’t ran into that. But check console. You mention mobile so if you’re on android you can hook it up to your pc and use debugging through chrome.. In the past I’ve had success looking at error messages to see why my requests were failing. Usually because i wasn’t passing headers correctly.

I use symfonium and it looks like it let’s you pass custom headers if needed. Good luck

Neat project! And welcome to lemmy!

That #1 is crucial. I see a lot of people get stuck in tutorial hell or burn out from doing other people’s projects. Some tutorials are okay if you’re just starting out but at some point switching to your own projects and challenging yourself is necessary

And since OP mentioned being on/off, i would also just say be consistent. Dedicate some time to work on your own projects so you’re not forgetting stuff before it really sticks

I struggled with that but for me i treated it as one I’ve been most hyped about this past year

I selfhost navidrome for the music streaming (+symfonium app for mobile). Multi user and multi library support.

For music tagging itself ive used beets, picard, and kid3 (kde). Currently I am liking picard the most. It took a little bit of learning but less than beets

Does someone have the tldr?

/s

Expired domains first can be bought by registrars and then they might sell or auction it off. For instance godaddy will scoop up a lot of domains and auction them off even if it was registered somewhere else first. And unfortunately a surname.tld probably will invite domain squatters to try to get it and then charge much more for it

You can look into something like dropcatch which they will try to get the domain for you before another registrar gets it. Look into their backorder service and just check the timing to make sure they still can try to get it.

Regularly check the whois info (via icann lookup) to see which registrar currently has it which can help you determine if it has gone to an auction.

Who needs access to these private repos? There’s always raw git (has a web server if needed). That’s what I’ve been doing since moving to codeberg for my public projects and eventually i might set up a private forgejo server.

Sourcehut also offers public, private, and unlisted repos
