Mostly because my files stay on my hardware, on my network. In case of internet down/broken/filtered I can still access all my data. That is one of the points of self hosting. Not the only one, granted, and maybe not even the most critical, but having the opportunity, better to host on your turf.
Go ahead the self host on a cloud somewhere, nothing bad about that! Have fun, enjoy, learn and be digitally independent is the core of self hosting.
Ok, i misunderstood!
Why use an external cloud? While its technically still kind of self its not self hosted anymore IMHO. You would still be running your services, but on somebody else, rented, hardware. While I do the same for a few services (like email), i wouldn’t suggest it for general services that you want to reside on your turf (like immich, music, 'arrs, passwords, whatever)
Why not an an android build? It’s Godot after all…
Edit: sorry, mixed up go with godot… Forget my comment.
How do I find out if the ISP is handling me a single address or a /64 or whatever?
Mm no, not using dyndns. I am missing IPv6 support on the LAN side… But I have it on the wan side
Ok cool to know, never done raid1 since the time I moved to btrfs…
That seems overkill, in fact my 20y old only address still works pretty fine, and with rspamd setup, with basic settings, the annoying few emails have been intercepted now.
But indeed an extreme but effective approach, yours.
Do you have documentation or references on how to setup rspamd?
Zfs for some reasons is always loved by the self hosting experts.
Personally I don’t like it because it’s over complicated and not officially part of the Linux kernel.
20y of self hosting for me means Linux software raid (raid1 then moved to raid5) and mostly ext4, recently (=last 2 years) upgraded to btrfs on my data raid. Btrfs at least is integrated in the Linux kernel and while has some drawbacks (don’t do raid with btrfs, put btrfs on MD raid instead) its been super rock solid.
I would have kept ext4, but thought why not try btrfs, and it’s been so smooth that I had no reasons to go back.
I love the places around Val Chisone, Val Pellice and Valli di Lanzo. A bit less renown, but nonetheless beautiful Check out the Rifugio Lago Verde near Prali for example…
I also like Rifugio Città di Ciriè at the Pian della Mussa. You can reach it by car in summer, but you can sleep there and do lots of hikes. For example, you can hike to the top of the Ciamarella, which is a 3900m top. There is a small (highly melting) glacier to cross, but it’s really just an hike. No crevasses. The main difficulty is the altitude.
Also, there is a hiking loop i just love in the valley of Prali (inside Val Germanasca, inside Val Chisone) you can actually hike the entire valley starting from Gigo di Prali all around the mountains on the north-east side. You hike up to 2900m first, passing Rifugio LAgo Verde, then following ancient military roads, keep at around 2000-2500m for over 20km until Rocca Bianca, passing the beautiful basin of the 13 lakes on the way. Overall the entire loop is 35km. When i was 25 i did it in 11/12 hours. LAst summer when i was training for a few trail runs, i did it in a about 5h 30min.
Well, actually it’s more and more common to see piazza places that caters to celiacs with gluten free products and freshly backed pizzas. One of our favourite pizzeria around us recently renovated and created a dedicated gluten free pizza oven with fully separated workflow. Also, in the bigger town nearby there is a “pasticceria” dedicated to gluten-free sweets (like cakes and such), and the main “focacceria” (place where you buy focaccia, a kind of different pizza but to-go only) has a dedicated gluten free shop next door.
So i would say that Italy has evolved quite a lot and support celiacs pretty well.
I don’t know about pasta, but given that in every supermarket the gluten free aisle for pasta is usually well stocked, i guess that should be also available in at least some restaurants…
Update : my ISP does not provide GUA… So, whatever. Stick to IPv4 for the time being, no need to get complicated with IPv6 nat when I already have IPv4 nat working fine.
I actually have two ISP and one does support ip 6 with a GUA and that’s where I got confused… Unfortunately, it’s the one providing 20mb/sec FTTC that I use only for backup. The main one, the one providing 300mb/sec over FVA does not.
