I installed Grafana, simply because it was the only one I had heard of, and I figured that becoming familiar with it was probably useful from a professional development standpoint.

It’s definitely massive overkill for my use case, though, and I’m looking to replace it with something else.

A few months ago I couldn’t sleep, so I turned on the TV and flipped through the regular old channels for the first time in probably about 15 years. There was a sumo tournament on NHK (Japanese public broadcaster) and I was immediately hooked. I’ve been following each tournament since then. For anyone who’s curious about it, matches are very easy to understand if you just want to watch the sport, but if you decide to starting looking up more information about the history behind these events, there is so much to read.

What are you trying to host?

That’s a very slick setup, nice.

I’m guessing that most iPhone users just use Apple Podcasts, and Apple themselves probably want it that way. (E.g. less promotion of third-party podcast apps on the app store.)

That minimalist UI looks very nice.

Pinepods looks so cool! I just created an account on the demo instance. The “smart playlists” feature just absolutely sold me.

Oh cool, I wasn’t aware of gpodder.net. I actually thought you were talking about the desktop gpodder application, which I had used before. Didn’t realize there was a server-side component to it as well. Thanks!

Thanks! Haven’t heard of Audiobookshelf before, and that’s the kind of thing I was looking for.

This is an amazing ode to the game, thank you! Makes me want to play it. It’s 50% off ($5) on GOG right now, too.

I use wallabag.it for this. I don’t actually self host it, I’ve been a paying subscriber to the maintainer’s hosted service for a few years now and I’ve had no complaints. It hasn’t had many new features lately, but it does do what I want it to.

It doesn’t capture comments in fediverse threads (see here: https://app.wallabag.it/share/6813d1f1616096.02317152 ), and there are some websites where it doesn’t detect the contents of the article, but it does work the vast majority of the time.

I’m not sure what you could do about a Nextcloud integration. You can export articles as epubs and pdfs; I’ve done that a few times and put the exported files on my Nextcloud server. But there are also a bunch of wallabag apps for your different devices, which is what I use to read articles on those devices.

edit: Oh, I forgot to add that you can generate an RSS feed of your unread articles. So that could be added to Nextcloud’s RSS reader.

Hand planes are the classiest looking tools. If a hand plane was a person, it would always be calling you “old chap.”

I’m an advocate of running all of your self-hosted services in a Docker container and even I can admit that this is completely accurate.

You can think of Docker as something that lets you run all of your self-hosted services inside of their own virtual machine. To each service, it looks like that service is running on its own separate computer. (A Docker container is not actually a virtual machine, it’s something much faster than that, but I like to think about it the same way. It has similar advantages.)

This has a few advantages. For example, if there is a security vulnerability in one of your services, it’s less likely to affect your whole server if that vulnerable service is inside of a Docker container. Even if the vulnerability lets an attacker see files on your system, the only “system” they can see is the one inside of the Docker container. They can’t look at anything else on the rest of your actual computer, they can only see the Docker “virtual machine” that you created for that one service.

I love the way this looks! Is that some kind of UI library, or did you design it that way?

I have my music collection in Funkwhale now, which relies on metadata for organizing the library. But I want to check this out anyway – maybe I’ll create a few folders for specific listening cases.

Probably would run into these things needed in this order:

• The text editor kakoune
• Add uBlock Origin to Firefox
• KeepassXC
• tmux

Then nodejs if it’s a laptop, or Steam if it’s a desktop.

Yeah, literally all of mine these days are trying to go to /wp_admin.php and /phpmyadmin.

Side note: this made me think, “I wonder how the phpMyAdmin project is doing these days,” and wow, all of their corporate sponsors are online vape shops and places to buy fake social media followers. (https://www.phpmyadmin.net/) What the heck is going on there? I know that funding open source projects is almost impossible, so I understand taking whatever money you can get. But it looks pretty bad when phpMyAdmin is a huge target for bots trying to steal your database, and then the entire project seems to be sponsored by companies that need emails and passwords to create fake social media activity.

Wow, that looks fantastic! I like the light/dark pattern, almost like piano keys.

Also, I didn’t immediately see which community this post was from, and for a second or two I thought it was a little piece of cake from one of the foodie comms. It does look delicious…

Thank you! I’ve been ignoring that error, assuming that it was just about indentation.

Also I appreciate your use of the word “thusly” immediately after the word “tho.”

Agreed, I wouldn’t recommend Librewolf for casual users. I understand why Librewolf makes those decisions, and I’m glad that it exists, but you definitely run into some quirks when using it. I’m thinking about switching from Librewolf to Waterfox myself.
