Backblaze quietly stopped backing up OneDrive and Dropbox folders

The article doesn’t really say if the OneDrive or DropBoxe folders were on the physical drive that was being backed up. Backblaze has a restriction on how the backup operates. The drives must be physically connected to the computer being backed up. I have no experience with backing up Git but to date, all my back ups are what they should be. I know there is software that ‘tricks’ BackBlaze into thinking NAS drives are connected, but not sure what the actual names of the software are.

I don’t know the technology behind it, but back in the day, Google’s Picasa was pretty good at facial recognition and grouping.

Wow! Well, you can keep your attitude.

I’m not a slop jockey

Are you aware that you are not required to run AI with n8n? There are two flavors: With AI and without.

Liked that

That may have adult uses as well

That’s pretty cool OP. I use n8n for various automation around the lab but the most recent would be an addition to my dashboard. The n8n routine will fetch the latest, animated, Solar Flare and Aura Forecast from sol24.net. I’ve always been fascinated with the sun and our atmosphere since I was a kid.

Do you have one here as well?

I’m not sure what you are asking me, but yes I do selfhost. This would be as close of a description as I have posted here: https://lemmy.world/post/43533409

Dude is going to make his second post and get yanked. LOL

Are you using a VPN? A lot of the VPN vendors disallow IPV6.

You bet. I am a huge music fan. I create it, I listen to it, from Opera to Death Metal and anything in between. My heart belongs to Blues, Jazz, Soul, R&B, and Funk tho.

Interesting. My method for finding new or similar music to what I have in my library is to use TasteDive. Crowd-Sourced, so you get a ‘real world’ recommendation. It can be a little bit of work, but I find it quite effective. TasteDive also works for movies and a lot of other things. It does have an API tho I’ve never explored that side. I’m not sure what software would interface with their API.

OP, I forgot I had made a post about my setup. So, for what it’s worth, this is what and how I run my network:

It’s been quite a while since I’ve messed with Yunohost, so memory is a bit sketchy.

SimplePush and Kuma

• SimplePush is propitiatory whereas Kuma is opensource
• SimplePush scales as a service whereas Kuma scales as infra
• SimplePush has limited customization whereas Kuma has a swath of customization possibilities
• SimplePush is a subscription whereas Kuma is free

change the default SSH port

I run most everything on a nonstandard port if I can get away with it. However, a bot scan of your server will reveal everything about the ports on your server.

There are literally tons of ways to skin the security cat and you’ll probably hear a ton of them mentioned. Personally, I use the evil Cloudflare Tunnels/Zero Trust with Tailscale as an overlay on the server and on the standalone pFsense firewall. Cloudflare Tunnels/Zero Trust there is no need to fiddle with NAT, closing/opening ports, etc. Install it on the server, and it takes care of the rest. You will need a FQDN which you can change the nameservers to the ones Cloudflare will assign. The free tier is more than generous and covers a lot of ground as far as security.

Disable root ssh access completely

You can, and this ties in with nonstandard ssh port, use key pairs.

Scan your machine and ensure no extra ports are open

Lynis is a great way to get a handle on what needs to be done to your server as far as hardening it. Run a scan, in a few minutes it will spit out a list of things that need attention. Not all of the recommendations will be applicable to your server.

You can always use host allow/host deny to really tighten things up. The only users that will have critical access are the ones you assign in the config.

Fail2ban is effective, along with Crowdsec, Wazuh, etc

• SimplePush (Home Assistant)
• nfty.sh
• Uptime Kuma
• Gotify

There are plenty of others. Those just come to mind

I’ve been using LinkWarden for a long time now. I also use Readeck for ‘read it later’ kind of data but it could be used to bookmark. I use Karakeep for archiving. I have not tried Betula, Linkwallet, Nextcloud Bookmarks, Postmarks, or xBrowserSync.

+1 for OliveTin

I’ve been using Cloudflare’s Tunnel/Zero Trust for a while now and I find it does the job just jammy. I’m not sure I need Mesh, but I will at least familiarize myself with it.
