Oh most def.

I guess I'm complaining that it isn't already there, but honestly I love Dockge. Won't be going back to Portainer. Pretty much since the beginning I've been using compose files, and it always bugged me how Portainer handled them.

Dockge is what I've always wanted, tbh. Just some QoL stuff here and there, but I'm very happy with it :)

Yeah that's usually what I do on a computer. But I didn't have easy access to a computer, so I manage my server from my phone. So ssh is usually easier lol

Agreed. Really annoying.

I love Dockge. Have also replaced Portainer with it.

But I hate that I can't just restart a single container easily with it. It's a small enough issue since most of the time I need to restart the entire compose file because of dependencies, but still.

I've tried, but I wasn't able to get it working. I'll look into it again though, cuz I'd love to do it all through NPM.

I agree, very beginner friendly. But also, it's what most people are gonna need.

I actually started with Traefik because I didn't know any better, and I kinda wanna go back to be honest because with Traefik I was able to configure a Minecraft server, without having to expose the port. But not with NGINX Proxy Manager.l, since it only does http and shit. But I REALLY like being able to do everything via a webUI since I only have a phone to manage my server .

So, I find myself stuck between functionality and ease of use. :(

I hope I'm able to properly communicate my thoughts to you! Haha

Alright, so to start, it reads sort of like a tv show, in the way that every chapter we get a shift in perspective and what character we are following. It shifts between 2 narratives. Sort of like every chapter is a different episode. Perhaps I just don't read enough, but this constant back and forth seemed a little odd to me in a written medium? Including the prologue, we get 3 different character POVs.

As for the pacing, it isn't slow, but it isn't fast either. I'd say it's well-paced, but each POV seems to have a slightly different speed, where a chapter for one character could be just a typical day, the chapter for the next character could span a few weeks. This doesn't interrupt the story much at all, and it really seems to only serve to enhance the readers immersion in this world and how fast or slow things move in space and "The Belt" as it's called in the series.

Speaking of the world, so far, it has been built and established pretty wonderfully. 114 pages into the first book of the series, and the writer never seems to shoehorn in exposition into the narrative, but rather it's, usually, a tasteful cutaway to a flashback of sorts that explains perhaps who they're talking to/about, or what event happened to kick off a chain reaction and why, etc.

I have encountered 1 misspelling so far earlier in the book, and it's probably just me, but it's stuck with me since.

In terms of its actual writing and language used, the author uses basic, everyday language, with a few "$5" words sprinkled in that can sometimes cause confusion, although that could just be due to my limited personal dictionary. Overall, it doesn't detract from the story, especially if you're willing to take a moment to look up a word or 2 every couple chapters.

In terms of "sci-fi"-ness, so far everything the entire series has taken place either in the empty vacuum of space, or smaller stations scattered throughout the solar system. The way the author describes some everyday actions and activities, and their difficulty or impossibility in the altered gravity of space and/or space stations really sucks me into the universe as it makes me believe that even though these people are humans, they're living an entirely different existence, with different rules.

I said a lot, especially for only being 114 pages into the first book, but it has sucked me back into reading, and I commend it for that.

Also, a few articles I've seen scattered across the internet when searching for other books in the series have called it "the greatest sci-fi series of the decade" for whatever that's worth to you.

Oh, and they also have a "major" tv show based on the books.

Hope this comment answers a few questions for you :)

I don't know if I'd call it a slump. I liked reading, but just don't read much.

But I recently picked up James S. A. Corey's first book in "The Expanse" universe, Leviathan Wakes, and I'm having troubling putting it down!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I just started "Leviathan Wakes", the first novel in The Expanse universe. According to Google I'm about 25% through, and I'm loving it!

I'm not much of a reader, but I just can't seem to put this down !

For those of you who don't know about this yet, this is Fast Character! Quickly generate a DND 5e character for your campaign! As a DM, I've been using it to make NPCs in an army that my characters are fighting against.

I hope you can find it as useful as I did :)

So, I have no idea what your patterns, habits, and just general life is like, but I actually use it for some subscriptions. I currently pay for Sync for Lemmy using it, and also for a mass texting app.

Are there any mobile games you like? You can use it for some iAP's :)

If there is an app that you've been eyeing but it is a little more than you'd like to spend, maybe use your credits on that!

That's how I paid for 1Password 7 a few years ago lol

Hi y'all! Sorry for asking so much on this sub! Y'all have been so helpful!

This time, I'm thinking of transitioning from 1Password to a self-hosted option.

Of course I know about Bitwarden, and I'm looking into it now, but are there any other recommendations y'all have? Have y'all heard of and used Passbolt? It seems nice, but it looks like it only does passwords and not other categories like 1Password does.

A few things of note: I'd like it to have different categories, a la 1Password. (Logins, SSN, ID, member card #, etc) Maybe multi-user so I can have an account for my wife. Password generator of course, and I'm not sure if y'all are familiar too much with 1password, but it allows you to customize the fields in each entry. So it starts with the basics (username, password, url), but it allows you to add sections and entries too! I could add a "security" and add my 2FA code on there, my backup codes, etc.

Honestly, that last one is a biggie, so I think I might be talking myself out of moving over now, but I'm sure that AgileBits or whatever the company is called will abandon, if it hasn't already, 1Password 7 with local vaults, in favor of 1Password 8 that only uses 1password subscription accounts.

Sorry for the rant and wall of text. Thank y'all in advance.

Update on July 21, 2023

I decided to self-host Vaultwarden as it was designed to be a lightweight (on resources) version of Bitwarden. For Android, I'm using the "Keyguard" app to access my instance, and the official Bitwarden browser extension on my wife's MacBook. 1password fucked me over, and I had to manually copy every password 1 by 1, luckily I only had ~500 entries.

I'm still doing some research into the best app for android (the official Bitwarden is ugly, and Keyguard is pretty, but I'm still looking around.)

Thank each and every one of you for taking time to answer my question!

So, this is a rather odd request of a backup solution, but it's kinda what I want right now.

I'm still relatively new to Linux and self-hosting in general

A few years ago, my cousin and I were hosting our own Minecraft server. It had a mod that would create backups of the world folder. It zipped it up, named it "yyyy-mm-dd.zip" and placed it in a backups folder somewhere on the server.

The most important feature that I want is actually the next part. It would allow us to specify how many backups we wanted to keep, and also how frequent we wanted the backup to run.

We set it to backup daily, and keep 14 days of backups. After that, it would delete the oldest one, and make a new backup.

I would like to replicate that functionality! Specify the frequency, but ALSO how many backups to keep.

Idk if it's asking too much. I've tried doing some research, but I'm not sure where to start.

Ideally I'd like something I can host on docker. Maybe connect to a Google account or something so it can be off-site.

I only want to use it for docker config files, compose files, container folders, etc.

I've looked into restic, but it seems it encrypts the backups, and you NEED a working copy of restic to restore? I'd like something simple like a .zip file instead or something, to be able to just download, unzip, and spin up the compose file and stuff.

Sorry for the wall of text, thanks in advance if you have any suggestions!

P.S. I'm pretty sure the upload to Google or some other service would have to be a separate program, so I'm looking into that as well.

Update: I want to thank everyone for your wonderful suggestions. As of right now, I have settled on a docker container of Duplicati, backed up to my Mega.nz account. Last I checked they lowered the storage limit, but I was lucky to snag an account when they were offing 50GB free when you joined, so it's working out well so far. I did have to abandon my original idea, and decided to look for something with deduplication (now that I know what it is!) And encryption.

 

こんにちは!いえすです。あいすくりむだいすきです!どうぞよろしく。

 

Hi all! Loving the new community on Lemmy. It grew to 18k FAST holy crap.

I was wondering if there was a simple self-hostable leaderboard available? Nothing crazy like able to add a new row on the webpage, auto-sort to the top score is at the top, etc.

To help with context, a group of friends and I are playing DnD, and just recently we started dkeeping track of and playing a new meta game and keeping score.

  • Fastest player gets knocked to 0hp.
  • Fastest player death
  • most damage per turn
  • most damage per attack

Etc and stuff like that.

It'd be awesome if there was a self-hosted way to do this so all players can see quickly on a webpage instead of opening a shared spreadsheet.

Any ideas? Google is just showing me links to others asking the same question on Reddit.

 

So, I've recently started torrenting more, but I wanted to be safe about it, or a safe as can be.

I already have a PIA subscription from like 3 years ago on a Christmas sale.

I would like to continue using Docker, as I have been.

I know there are docker images of qBittorrent with VPN included, but I have PIA set up with the "Gluetun" docker image, so that if I wanted to, I could run other containers through it rather easily.

So, I'm using PIA with Gluetun image, and the standard qBittorrent image that is being funneled through Gluetun. I'm using Portainer and Portainer Stacks to manage my docker environment. I'm also using a PIA server in CA Vancouver, as far as I can tell, that server allows port forwarding as well as seeding.

My problem is I can't seem to seed anything. Can any of y'all help me get properly set up for seeding as well as torrenting?

If you need any more info or screenshots, let me know!

Also, I am actively looking and researching to try to fix it, but work is a pain right now. I'll update if I manage to figure it out.

Thank you in advance!

 

Is it possible to do it here, or is there another place to possibly swap invites to private trackers?

I tried iptorrents, and of course it's donate or invite only. I do happen to have an invite to TorrentLeech if anyone wants to trade?

Idk if this is a thing or not, so any help would be appreciated!
