Tell me more about this Lightroom/storage stuff from your university.

We were given a free monthly Adobe subscription as part of our program (IT/UI/UX), I graduated during Covid a couple years ago and my uni login still works with it for some reason.

Definitely not using it as my primary backup, but I do enjoy the Lightroom integration. They’ll probably flip a switch and I’ll lose access one day. Or never.

Hm. Last I looked our setup was just a general discount and the 10 $/mth I’m currently doing for LR and PS (plus some amount of storage I don’t use) is low enough that I can’t be bothered. Free would be better of course.


Back to email talk, I’ve been half thinking about getting a domain to have a fancy dumb email address instead of a @gmail one. Is this a bad/dumb idea for personal use? I could see problems arising if the domain price spiked or something. Afaik you can’t just outright own anything anymore so that seem like a potential nonstarter.

A lot of domains are discounted for the first year, just look up the renewal price before picking one. Other than that I have never heard of prices going way up.

There are other options, but simplest thing to do would be to buy a domain somewhere then pay google $5/month to host the email on it.

E: That option gets pricey if you want several inboxes.

Spent yesterday coding up a WebDAV server and JavaScript front-end to make it look like Google Drive and/or a photo gallery. https://git.woozle.org/neale/webfs.

Then I discovered that somebody had already made this exact thing, and also the UI is working: https://github.com/sigoden/dufs. I might submit a patch to have it display README.md.

My idea for the photo gallery was slow as hell to load (the first time) so I'll probably just keep using PiGallery2 which has the advantage of me not having to maintain it.

I wish I could find this stuff at the beginning of the day, so I could, like, not write code all day.

I looked at that one and I don't recall now why I didn't want to use it. Probably the lack of WebDAV and the CLI confiuration. But it looks pretty boss, I'll have to give it another run.

Maybe it's time for me to look at owncloud infinite scale again.

Man I hate how much time I've spent on Nextcloud's apps thinking they might be good replacements for Google and such, but they're kind of trash. I've pared my installation down to just files, which it does excellently.

Nextcloud is pretty worthless to be honest I wish it would stop being recommended in self hosting circles.

I use it for contact syncing because its about the only thing it does reliably and I'm too lazy to set something else up for it at this point.

Is there anything else that's a viable Google Drive alternative for the selective sync that stores everything on the filesystem as normal files though? Nextcloud was the only thing I've come across that ticks those boxes. It's been working great for me.

The Maps plugin doesn't seem to be a good alternative to Google Maps saved locations & timeline history though, which is a bummer. Their News app (RSS reader) hasn't been a compelling alternative to Newsblur, so I continue to pay for that. Photos app is fine for very basic functionality but Photoprism/Immich/etc seem to be more compelling alternatives.

I dunno cause it doesn't work. Leave a file untouched or don't open the app for a week and all of a sudden nothing is on your device anymore and lol if you were expecting to use it outside of cell service.

I gave up and use syncthing, it suits my needs much better and more importantly is reliable.

Syncthing is certainly good at what it does, I don't think it fits the Google Drive use case though.

For example, I've got a Documents folder on my desktop computer. Let's say it's 250GB. I want this backed up, and occasionally access files in there from my phone. Google Drive does this perfectly. Syncthing does not, unless I sync everything in Documents to my phone.

I use Nextcloud files and Nextcloud news. I setup that AI identification thing but honestly it wasn't useful. Collabora Online's self-hosted server is also deployed for it to have online text editing. I also setup LanguageTool to do grammar checking and setup the free DeepL api key to allow language translations.

I don't really use the text editor though despite all that.

I do use LanguageTool in Libreoffice and in the browser plugin to check my grammar locally and for the text I type on the internet though.

Nextcloud probably sees the most use from me from its webDAV server which I use to sync my ebook reader (Moon+ Reader) on Android across devices, sync Joplin, and automatically backup Aegis. You can just create a dotfile in your home and then point your services to that via the webDav and it'll stay hidden from your web viewer unless you specifically set it to show hidden files.

Yeah, webDAV is what I initially used it for to sync my family's calendars. Then I went to set up a 2FA integration and accidentally locked myself out and decided it wasn't worth the effort to fix/rebuild.

If you just want a self-hosted Dropbox for files it's pretty good and having apps for Windows/Android/iOS is handy but everything else it has just seems extremely niche or doesn't quite work the way it should.

You can make app passwords after you setup 2FA so you don't have to undo it.

I looked into Seafile but it appears to store data in a proprietary format, so I'm forced to use their client app or FUSE extension. It's nice just being able to use Samba, NFS, rsync, etc with the data I have in Nextcloud, since it's just the actual files stored on the filesystem.

I told y'all I'm working on a thing that's just WebDAV and some client-side JavaScript, right? No indexing, no fancy pants proprietary database you'll be unable to read in 10 years, just WebDAV on a filesystem.

My hypothesis is that most people actually only want a WebDAV server they can also get to with a browser. The recent posts make me think I'm onto something.

If you've wanted to mess around with Kubernetes, Podman desktop just released an update that will let you deploy a one node K8s instance through the use of Kind. You can then interact with it just like any other k8 set of nodes with kubectl --context (name of cluster). You can find your cluster's name in ~/.kube/config after you install it using Kind.

Pretty neat way to dip your toes into that if you're interested

I had a couple of services running and accessible through NPM via a duckdns site. I moved the server device to a new location and I'm trying to get those two services up again.

I've set my port forwarding on my router to be the same as the original router and all the services are accessible locally. The NPM instance is up and running fine and its ports are open. The websites ([service].duckdns.org) also point to my IP properly and 443 and 80 are open on them. Even the DNS settings on the router are the same since I just set up a pihole as the primary and 1.1.1.1 as secondary DNS.

What should I be troubleshooting next?

Check the nginx logs to confirm it's seeing requests would be my starting point. Thisll either point you back towards your network as an issue or your nginx/container setup.

I don't want my publically accessible image hosting to be anywhere near my Nextcloud & Photoprism that I use for personal photos. I don't need thumbnail generation or any of that. Just want to be able to upload photos and have it spit out some bbcode tags to copy/paste. Simple album support is a nice to have, like imgur offers. Most of those listed seem like overkill for this use case.

My only gripe with Picsur (at least from the demo) is that it doesn't preserve filenames. I never liked that about imgur either. Remember filenames?? Sometimes they would even be the punchline of a joke!

Anyway, everytike the container starts up it can't auth to tailscale. Maybe someone here has a fix that isn't just run it on the OS.
