I second this.
I have a nextcloud instance on pi4 for personal use and love it.
It’s not good for live transcoding of video, but works great for calendars, file sharing, photo sharing and music streaming.
I have a 500 gig SSD for most stuff and a 6TB HDD for backups and archiving.
I use docker compose to map a folder called archive in my instance to the HDD.
Cant wait for the review on explainingcomputers.com 🤓
Hell yeah, thanks for the informative reply :)
Has anyone used this?
I have and dig Gitea, but this sounds radtastic, especially with the fediverse integration (If I understand it right.)
Worth switching?
If you intend to run a service like nextcloud or something that necessitates a lot or writing to a disk, I recommend gettingan nvme hat and booting off that.
I have a nextcloud instance thats been going for about a year and it’s been pretty great.
Before that my instance’s SD card died after about 6 months.
Word! Thanks for the info
I didnt realize. Do you have more info on this?
I love this so much
Any reason why?
I use Raspian on my pi and Ubuntu on my workstation and I maintain a debian server at work.
I love 'em all. Ubuntu Snaps arent my fav. but other than that they’ve been great
I was self hosting gitea. It’s great for small projects and all for well over a year…
But then my filesystem got corrupt and I really learned to appreciate not having to deal with physical infrastructure.
I have things backed up and all, but I’m short on time and it’s taken a week for me to find time to pull out the drive, pop it into another machine fsck it, pop it back into the server, see that even though the filesystem is repaired and mountable on my desktop, my Raspi cant boot at all. Kernel panics when trying to mount rootfs :( Then pull the drive back out and reburn a new image, copy home folders, yada yada
It’s a good thing my work doesnt depend on it.
Very good points.
In my case I just need to for a couple users with maybe a few dozen transactions a day; it’s far from being a bottleneck and there’s little point in optimizing it further.
Containerizing it also has the benefit of boiling all installation and configuration into one very convenient dockercompose file… Actually two. I use one with all the config stuff that’s published to gitea and one that has sensitive data.
good to hear. maybe I should try again
i use it for gitea, nextcloud, redis, postgres, and a few rest servers and love it!, super easy
it can suck for things like homelab stablediffusion and things that require gpu or other hardware.
Wow! Wonder if Facebook will dissapear as quickly as MySpace
These are always so fun
Oof. Meta open source. Srsly sus. •͡˘㇁•͡˘
