It’s definitely a YMMV situation. I’ve heard from lots of people that it runs solid as a rock in Docker, and from others like you and me where it’s flaky af.

I’m glad yours is stable! I don’t know why, but mine, if you’d cut a loud fart near the server Nextcloud would just shit the bed on me. God forbid I try to update Nextcloud.

Like you I had most plugins disabled, and I was the only user. I first ran Nextcloud using NextcloudPi on an rpi4, and that ran solid for like four years. However, when I repurposed that pi and moved Nextcloud to my server in Docker, it just would not reliably run for me no matter what I did. At that point I also wasn’t really using Nextcloud anymore so I just abandoned it as not worth the effort.

I abandoned nextcloud entirely a couple years ago. It was just too damn flaky (self hosted via docker).

Chiming in for Radicale. Been running it for a couple years. It’s great

That’s because Apple, as they love to do, decided to make their own special version of 2fa within their little garden.

Y’know, instead of going with the accepted totp method.

Wow. Some of that announcement was serious buzzword salad.

In concept, as a fan of WoT, I’m definitely interested. And this is a use of AI I feel is not terrible. But a subscription? Probably not gonna work for me.

Wait. An email just to get a download link AND a cloud account. Fuck that.

Exactly. I generally like typing out my commands because I’m learning and it helps me remember what I’m doing and what the commands mean/how they work. And if it’s a particularly long one I’ll make an alias for it.

I was finding the same with ssgs, until I ran into Grav. You might like it. It’s got a web ui kind of like Wordpress, and you can write right from the web ui, but you can also just write markdown files and dump them into a directory to generate posts/pages.

Thank you (switched to an lemmy.ml account because I haven’t been able to comment or post on lemmy.world for over a week)

Not really specific skills, I’m just a hands on learner/tinkerer. I’ve been messing with self hosting for around three years now, so spinning up new docker services is fairly easy (fairly. I still have a lot to learn about docker). In doing so, I’ve used and referred to github a lot, and even used git to clone repositories for self hosting a service, but beyond that, I hadn’t looked into it as it didn’t seem relevant to me at the time.

And thank you for the Forgejo information! I will look into that and compare to see which one I’d like to use. Coincidentally I just saw today or yesterday that Forgejo has gone for a hard fork.

+1 for Portainer CE. works like a charm.

I get it constantly. When I run into it, I just nope out. Isn’t worth my time to fight it

I align very much with your tastes, here are some you didn’t mention that I thoroughly enjoyed.

• Frontlines by Marlo Kloos. Military Sci-Fi, IMO better than both Old Man’s War and Expeditionary Force
• Palladium Wars, also by Kloos. More good military sci-fi
• Frost Files by Jackson Ford. Rollicking good time.
• Doors of Sleep by Tim Pratt. Superb portal sci-fi/fantasy. Skip the follow up.
• Mickey7 series by Edward Ashton. Clone hijinks.
• The Passage by Justin Cronin. Post apocalyptic sci-fi vampires.
• 14 by Peter Clines. I don’t want to say anything more than sci-fi apartment building. Give it a try.

hahaha! I almost put Ubuntu, but I knew everyone would know exactly what I was talking about.

Thank you! I’m glad you enjoy them! They help me keep my own thoughts and progress organized. I had been jotting this stuff down in notes for myself, then I thought, “hey, I might as well share this on Lemmy while I’m at it.”

That makes sense. I couldn’t come up with quite the right wording to distinguish between them when I was writing up the post.

I haven’t. I’m aware of the *arrr stuff, but as I mentioned in the post, I’m writing these scripts to learn. I have no illusions that what I’m doing is better than *arrr or filebot or whatever else might be out there, I just like working on projects as a way to learn.

Nice anaolgy!
