Do you know how any of this works?

Right? I just want to self-host something like Google and all their services, but free. It also has to run on an AMD K6-2 with 1GB of DDR1 RAM and under 20GB for storage. Please don’t ask me any questions, I know exactly what I’m doing.

Have you looked at Ghost?

If you don’t have a uniform infrastructure, nobody will want to use your spare compute you have lying around.

Every hosted solution already has free tiers and free CI runners, so the question is why would they pay you for the privilege?

I don’t mean to put your efforts down, but I’m so confused about what this is. I listened a bit, and it seems to be just you musing about your experience with certain things. I think people show up to listen to podcasts for an objective viewpoint about X topic, and not just somebody moving from topic to topic and talking about their wants and needs about a certain thing.

I’m also very confused on what “Linux Prepper” means. What are you preparing for?

Well if “it shouldn’t take much”, then it shouldn’t be hard to find a solution, right?

I’m now wondering why you’re here asking this question if you fully understand what you’re asking about.

That just covers voice/video. OP is asking about a lot more.

There is no way to do what teams does without significant infrastructure. Same with Slack and others.

If you want something that just gets close to the mark, look at Jitsi. It’s about as complete as you could expect for just video/voice.

What you may not understand about conferencing platforms is that they are dozens of different hosted services working together to provide a cohesive UE. Video, SIP, VOIP, auth, identity…these are all separate services that are deployed as microservices to get what you get. If you find the bare minimum of the services you actually need, you can probably cobble something together, but it’s not going to be a simple running of one service to get the same experience.

VNC is outdated and outmoded.

Spice is, firstly, no longer developed, but second, not widely adopted.

RDP is open, has pluggable authentication, transport encryption, and an extensible backend.

Kind of a clear winner there.

This isn’t a clear question about what you’re trying to confirm here.

Are you wondering how you pull a confirmed container from a confirmed provider?

Are you concerned about supply chain attacks?

There are numerous automated systems for this, and almost every platform you use will have their own. Infiscal doesn’t seem bad, but I haven’t used it.

I always suggest engineers just use whatever is closest to their stacks instead of implementing something, UNLESS it’s going to cost a lot more money (looking at you, AWS).

Bitwarden/Vaultwarden+BWcli is also another workaround if you’re just using it for small projects.

Etcd can do value encryption, and Redia even, but you should really be looking at something that has solid RBAC, or ZTC rotation.

Sounds like Jellfyfin+Jellybook is your winner then. The server portion of audiobook or ebook hosting isn’t going to be giving you any game changing features. They serve files.

The client you use is going to make or break your experience here, so just go with the easiest setup on the server side, and then run through some clients to see what works best.

You’re not really telling what the exact nature of your problem is, so it’s hard to answer you.

What’s the camera? How are you intending to connect to it? Do you otherwise have access to the feed of this camera as a user?

You need to give a lot more details, and maybe some errors to explain what you need help with.

Compose is stateful, so if you start a container and demonize it, it will start it again on restart of the machine until you stop it (by default), so that’s one way. If you want to hook into systems, you can go that route, but it’s not going to net you much just trusting one mechanism over another.

You just…build it.

If you’re looking for a way to run it like a system service, you could make a systemd unit I suppose, but it’s little effort to make a compose config, or a quadlet if you’re running podman.

I think parsedmarc is the only active-ish game in town. Most tools like this are going to be hosted SaaS.

It’s not Silverblue specific, it’s the Linux Kernel.

That, or your phone is using an overridden DNS server and not your local DNS resolver while on your own network. Common with Android specifically.

Ghost is meant more for hosting blogs and newsletters, not necessarily an interactive site.

Lots of static site frameworks out there: Hugo, Gatsby, Jekyll - all with their own strengths and weaknesses. Hugo probably has the largest following and template ecosystem, so may be faster to get started. Something a bit different that has some steam behind it is Grav CMS.

Exactly. A backup tool makes an entire copy of a filesystem. A time-based snapshot tool only covers the delta of changes to the filesystem.

So if you want a fully functional copy of your filesystem, then you make a full or incremental copy.

If you just want to be able to “rewind” to a point-in-time version of it, then Timeshift or snapshots allow you to do that.
