The question about the single most favorite self hosted software is impossible to answer.


No, I also got the mail and it stated pretty clearly that they only increase the price of the previously free plesk license to 5€. If you don’t use plesk (aka don’t have a license as you described), the VPS will still cost 1€/mon.
Thank you! I’d wish Radicale would include a dedicated sharing feature, at least there’s a workaround.
How do you handle shared calendars with radicale?


I would say most of us are not built for that. Seeing all this horrible shit the internet offers you can’t be good for anyones mental health. In this sense: congratulations on escaping the desensitization.


Check the permissions/owner of the authorized_keys file. I’m not at home right now to give you the path to it, but I have had a similar problem after I add a new ssh key to my gitea/forgejo account. It turned out that in doing so, sometimes the permissions change and gitea/forgejo then refuses to use the file. You should see warnings about this in the logs.
In my case the problem is probably rooted within the uid/gid thats used inside the container and/or the nfs mount I use for the container volume. I never bothered to get to the bottom of it though.


$10/month just for a static website is a lot, especially with free alternatives out there.


tl;dr: MongoDB is Web Scale.


I’ve read in another article that NG Lv 1 means that the drive is recoverable and NG Lv 2 that the drive is unrecoverable.


I’m thinking about just doing something outside kubernetes that just copies the data from the directory that NFS provides to another storage.
This is what I’m doing for the most part. A TrueNAS server provides the NFS shares and periodically backs them up with restic.
Some apps don’t like NFS very much, especially those that require SQLite. If you’re running Jellyfin over NFS you probably know what I mean. For those apps I use Ceph instead, which is highly available and a lot faster but also more complicated. Those PVCs I backup from within kubernetes to S3 storage with velero.


I use GitLab at work and Forgejo at home. GitLab is huge, Forgejo is lighter. GitLab Runner is very nice, Woodpecker was a pain to setup but it now does everything I need. GitLab supports subgroups, Forgejo does not. Forgejo is FOSS with a non-profit behind it, GitLab Inc. is for-profit.
At the end, I like to work with both. GitLab has lots of features, but for my own stuff Forgejo serves me very well and I like the openness of it.


How about private repositories?
In many cases, yes, we do allow them (under certain conditions)!
Our priority is to support the free content and free and open-source software ecosystems. As such, we cannot invest time, hardware and resources to provide private hosting for everyone. However, contributors to the aforementioned ecosystems can use up to 100 MB of private content at their own convenience.

I use Promtail + Loki + Grafana to monitor application logs. Promtail scrapes logs, Loki stores and indexes them and Grafana can query Loki with LogQL and also send alerts.
Apparently Promtail is superseded by Grafana Alloy, which I don’t have experience with.
Anyway, I set this up mostly for fun and to preserve logs of terminated pods in my kubernetes cluster. I don’t have any alerts in place, but I probably could.


Malicious design is putting it mildly. This is fraud with a bit of blackmail sprinkled in. They bricked perfectly functioning trains that their customers already had paid for, because another workshop was chosen for servicing them after the warranty period of the train ended. Then they charged over 20k € to unlock trains they deliberately locked before. The unlocking itself took them 10 minutes.
In a just world the Newag CEOs would go to jail for this, but sadly we all know this won’t happen.


No, it’s permanent. They call it “VPS XS”, here (in german). Sadly a initial one-time payment of 10€ required, I forgot about that.
On ionos.com the same VPS costs $2/month. No one-time payment though.
The unique selling point of this VPS for me was the low price combined with unlimited traffic. Sometimes my nebula lighthouse needs to proxy traffic for peers that can’t talk to each other directly. It’s nice not to worry about traffic then.


Ha, that’s a good question: I don’t. I chose a rather long time for the certs validity and then promised to myself that I will extend my ansible playbook when I need to.


I’m not using Pangolin, but a 1€/month VPS from IONOS serves as my nebula lighthouse.
I’ve always had a weird feeling about FUTO, but I thought them giving money to open source projects can’t be that bad. Now I hope they don’t fuck up Immich.
