I self host matrix.org synapse and bridge all my chats into this. I have a room for alerts and have any issues go into there. I get this on my phone, desktop, etc.

Aside from the notification part, I don’t want anything on my phone. If there’s an outage at 3am for my self hosted stuff, I’m not getting up, I don’t even want it to wake me up. I like sleep.

All I need is that initial notification and maybe a little extra context as to what it is. I need to determine if I’m going to fix it “soon” or if it can wait until I have free time. Doing anything else on my phone is a hard no. I need a keyboard and mouse.

When digging into the problem all I usually look at are the logs.

I met him in person around 2014-2015 and I have to agree. I use to watch his old stuff but something changed and I stopped

OS doesn’t see it so it’s either dead, unplugged, or I have no idea.

You see it in the BIOS?

Self-promotion posts advertising their product requires community participation, or they will be removed. No more than 10% of your posts or comments may be self-promotional, or your post will be removed. **F/LOSS Exception**: If your post is about a project that is completely open source & can be self-hosted *in full* without payment, your post is exempt from this rule.

How about

Promotional posts advertising a product requires community participation. If more than 10% of your history is promotional it will be removed. F/LOSS Exception: If a project is completely open source and can be self-hosted in full without payment, it is exempt.

Edit: we’ve come full circle. Let’s just do ‘don’t be a shill’ and be done with it…

Promotional posts require community participation or they will be removed. No more than 10% of your posts or comments may be self-promotional, or your post will be removed. **F/LOSS Exception**: If your post is about a project that is completely open source & without any paywalls, it will be exempt from this rule.

To me, this says, if you’re posting something behind a paywall (F/LOSS or not) they’re going to look at your post history. If you’re a shill, it will be removed. If you’re someone who self hosts and just wants to talk about self hosted apps, you’re fine.

Said another way, if all you do is post promo content it’s not welcome here. If it’s a one off then post it.

Look, if you don’t like the rule, make a suggestion to the mods on how to make it better. The spirit here is we all love learning and using new tools paid or not. If you want to share something new to you, like Plex, I’m 100% sure its fine. Post, promote what you love, start a conversation around Plex. The problem is if you only ever talk about Plex and promote it. It gets old FAST and it’s not a community I want to he apart of.

Symfonium is another paid example. Amazing app. Even with the new rules we can post about them. With that, I don’t understand your original complaint.

If you’re not pushing your paywalled stuff, it doesn’t affect you, does it?

Yeah, I understand that. I was suggesting saying the same thing without the exception wording. In the end, it doesn’t stop us from talking about paid software. I use Plex, etc, etc, it’s the promotion that’s the problem… That being said, maybe I’ve misunderstood non_burglar’s complaint. Unless they are a closed source dev looking to promote.

I think that’s the important distinction to make. Maybe get rid of the f/loss exception and explicitly call out the paid aspect. If you’re here to promote software that’s pay walled you get the 10% rule.

ETA: I’m fine with the new rules. Just trying to find common ground.

After the files have copied I always run sync to be sure then I umount

I want to know the opinion of the person who down voted you. I only buy phones with unlockable bootloaders for this reason.

You can use the host file to point matrix.example.ca to 127.0.0.1 or whatever endpoint you want to try.

You could set up a docker container with cinny to try a different app. https://cinny.in/

I don’t like elements so I avoid it, not sure what to suggest there.

I’d try on the PI against the service port to remove all the extra complexity. If that doesn’t work, fix it and move on to the next layer, fixing as needed until you get to the end.

Install docker.

Choose something you want to replace. Docs, image, chat, etc.

Research replacements for $Service

Bring up the docker Container and get it working.

Use it for a day/week as the replacement. If you don’t like it try a different replacement from the list above. Continue until happy.

Research a replacement for $OtherService

Bring it up on docker…

Check resources as you go. Maybe use Linux + docker on laptop and NFS from nas for storage. When the laptop isn’t powerful enough anymore look at adding another docker host. Just keep building from there.

Also backups. Maybe a wiki to document your journey.

Thank you for using TiB.

Sir, this is a Wendy’s

Yep. I wasn’t affected thankfully. Didn’t realise I was flexing, sorry. Just happy most of my stack is automated and it’s quite low maintenance at this point.

Where do I draw the line then? Serious question. If updating every couple hours is bad, then what’s safe?

It’s days like this where I’m happy I’m unemployed. I have a group chat with a few friends and they’re pushing out patches and it’s a bit of a rush.

All my publicly accessible servers update every 6 hours and reboot after whenever they need to. It’s rare I need to step in and fix something. I checked a few hours ago and I’m not at risk.

You’re 100% correct. I wonder what past me was looking at. Thanks! I just got my pine phone out today.

Is mobian still maintained? I had a quick look a couple days ago and their last blog post was 3+ years ago.

I have a pine phone that I haven’t touched in years. I’d love to daily drive it.

You’re better off telling us the problem you’re trying to solve than come to us with a solution to something we have no idea about.

If you describe the problem first, we might have a better idea than a web shell, which in all honesty is a bad idea.
