Well, I passed 40, thirty years ago, but I feel pretty good for an old fart.

To me, it’s always nice meeting the face behind the software. I have never used copyparty, but if I had a use case, it would be high on the list just based of the volume of detailed instructions. I think that is probably the most detailed selfhosted piece of software I’ve seen at GitHub…gotta be something good going on with that. And…and replete with pictures of the UI in a variety of scenarios. That’s just top drawer in my book. If a need ever arises, I have bookmarked it, because that’s where I’ll start. Awesome job my man, and thank you for your dedication to the craft.

Hey, man you talkin’ back to me?

Ok so, I got a popup asking to adjust the Appearance in Settings (Windows/Firefox edition) a little while ago, it seems like it was a month or so ago. I have all the settings there ticked. However, I think what a lot of people who knew, went to their official GitHub and downloaded the previous version’s xpi and sideloaded it. You would have to untick auto updates. That way you can just go back to clicking on the entry in Bitwarden and that autofills instead of having to click the $@#%$$$ ‘Fill’ button. The only caution would be if they upgraded the security components in the new version, meaning the last version may or may not have the same security components baked in.

Yes, the new theme is absolute crap.

I have used the free Bitwarden now for untold years. It not only houses passwords for personal applications, I use it to keep track of my business account passwords as well. The only problem I’ve had with Bitwarden is their recent UI retool which ended up causing a huge ruckus among the user base to the point where they gave an option to switch back.

There is a certain level of trust for whatever option you choose. If you use Bitwarden free, then you have to trust that Bitwarden will keep your data is safe on their servers. If you self host, the onus of trust lies in you’re ability to secure your server, and to the extent that you trust your host as well. The latter option leaves me a bit queasy, so I do not selfhost my passwords in a selfhosted vault.

Others may have more trust in their security skills than I do. LOL There’s just a lot of sensitive data I have housed within Bitwarden free. Selfhosting it would keep me up at nights.

Social Media Reactions

Interesting article.

I’ve used Grocy.

I use Grocy daily almost, but I think that is a bit more than what OP is looking for. I use it for my pantry inventory. I am somewhat of a prepper, tho I don’t prep for EOTW scenarios. Mostly for localized incidents, weather related disasters, imminent social uprisings, etc. I figure, if we start dropping nukes, point me towards the bright light and let it rip. I have no interest in ‘repopulating the earth’.

I took a hand-scanner, disassembled it, and re-assembled it into a more form fitting box and mounted it conveniently in the pantry. When I bring groceries into the house, I scan them into inventory. When I use an item, I scan it out. I also use the Grocy mobile app. So, at any time I can view my inventory and see that I either have enough of an item, or need to replenish the stock.

Actually I do. In the evenings when I take my nightly meds with a bowl, I sit in my bed and peruse the ‘read it later’ articles.

I have not tried Traefik, tho looking at what it does, it’s pretty amazing. Caddy seems to fit what I do, and as OP stated, Caddy is pretty easy to master, even tho it took me an embarrassingly long time to get it through my dim brain. Traefik does seem like a very polished app tho and is very integrated in with docker.

You gotta keep em separated!

For every technology there exists an equal, yet undoing technology.

Nothing. It’s just the whack way I like to keep things separated.

I actually used raindrop.io for a long while. Tight little app. It’s too bad it’s not selfhostable

I use Readeck for ‘read it later’ type articles, things of interest. The downside of Readeck is that there is no one-click-easy way to back up your database if you want to move it to another server. You can, however go to /volume1/docker/readeck/ and download all the db files there manually which will allow you to move to another server. Make sure to grab the config.toml in the same directory. It has a Firefox extension as with most of these apps in it’s genre. Probably has a chrome extension but I avoid chrome.

I use Karakeep (Hoarder) for stuff I’ve looked up to try to solve issues, such as pages from Grok where I have inquired about certain problems I may have been having.

These little mini-racks are cool. I’ve seen a lot of them here of late.

works for everything–not just web traffic. SSH, file transfers, databases.

Yup. I use it for sftp, ssh. I’ve never used in relation to a database. Is that for remote db? I am working on routeing mail through tailscale to a relay, since my host, for whatever reason, blocks mail ports and charges to have them turned on. I just wanted alert emails from a couple apps.

My bad.

I meant that I’m special as in incompetent, not that the app was special.

May have to chown /var/lib/radicale/collections as well:

ls -ld /var/lib/radicale/collections

If the directory doesn’t exist, create it:

sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/radicale/collections
sudo chown radicale:radicale /var/lib/radicale/collections

sudo chown radicale:radicale /var/lib/radicale/collections
sudo chmod 750 /var/lib/radicale/collections

At least that’s what my notes say.

Not bad for AI generated music. I haven’t dabbled into the AI music trend, but I do incorporate some aspects of AI when I master my tracks with Ozone. It’s a lot cleaner than I can achieve mainly because I’m clinically deaf and there are some frequencies that I just can’t hear.
