To be honest, that was the only thing I could scrape up. At the very least, I figured if it wasn't readily usable, it would give you some ideas of how to cobble together something along the same lines to solve your issue. Other options were using proprietary apps like FoneBackup, etc.

entirety of my network to a third party tool that I don’t know that well.

Understandable.

But I’m not very comfortable giving 100% access to Tailscale to my internal network

Out of curiosity, why are you uncomfortable with Tailscale?

Interesting. What kind of limits are there? For instance, I probably have archived well over 50k links/articles. Are there import/export options? Being federated and designed to be a share/colab platform, are there options where certain links remain private? I mean, most people probably don't want to see all my tentacle porn. /s I'm down to to help in beta testing if that is needed. Currently I run Readeck & Linkwarden, but those are not share/colab apps. What are you using for tagging....AI or is it up to the instance owner to properly tag?

What kind of security measures are you running with a public facing website?

I think for now, I will just be a part of what is already here. Maybe later I may entertain the idea.

I can definitely sing the praises of Proxmox. One of the three businesses I run from home uses a piece of software called BlueBeam. Feature for feature, I've not been able to find an opensource alternative. So I spin up a Windows VM with Proxmox for BlueBeam. I also run quite a few of the helper scripts, tho I am really keeping an eye on that. There seems to be diverging opinions among the devs on how things should operate. I also run a couple of small AI projects on Proxmox, so yea....it gets a work out. For what Proxmox can do, I was honestly surprised that the community edition was free. That's an awesome piece of software.

This one always makes me giggle and think of this.

Yes, reading comprehension on my part. Doh!

homepage

I liked Homepage. Very customizable, very well presented package and the UI is nice. I know, if you are running the *arr stack, it does a lot of interfacing with those apps. Not exclusively the *arr stack as it can interface with ProxMox to show how many VMs you're running and load/CPU etc.

Samba was not designed to be containerized.

There are some things that shouldn't be containerized even tho they can be. I can see the benefit of a user wanting to containerize everything....it's one neat little package. I look at on a case by case basis. For instance, Caddy I installed on bare metal instead of a container even tho there is one for Caddy.

I've been into computers since around the mid 70s. First one was an Altair 8000. I have been selfhosting for years now, self taught and helped along of course by the selfhosting communities.

Not to speak bad of the dead, but I've really had it up to my back teeth with their bullshit. So I am in search of some self hosting brethren to chum around with. I figured I'd give Lemmy a try. It's kind of confusing, but hopefully I can wrap my 70 year old head around it.

I've seen a few selfhost forum around the fediverse but they all seem to have been abandoned with threads a year or more old, and no movement. So my question, is there a thriving selfhost/homelab type place that is active? Perhaps one of you good souls could point me in the right direction.

Is there any benefit to hosting your own Lemmy and mesh it with the other Lemmey's out there? What benefit would that be? From what I understand, hosting your own instance turns out to just be your own personal blog.

I mean, I understand the fediverse, and decentralization, I'm just having a bit of difficulty getting in with the right, active, group.

TIA

ETA: Thank you for the very warm welcome. Hopefully I will be turtley enough for the turtle club.
