Nice roundup, good to see that I’m already familiar with all the applications. ;)

Not sure how lightweight it needs to be, but I use Ghost and it’s pretty simple and basic.

An initial library scan with 19k assets: 1m40s down to 9 seconds.

Insane!

Jellyfin is pretty nice for music too. I use it with Finamp, an Android client.

“Journalists flock to yet another proprietary, commercial platform as the last becomes increasingly ‘toxic’ for reasons unknown.”

Yeah, I suspect it’s simply an issue on the side of DuckDNS. :/

Well, I’m monitoring the GUI of Proxmox on which I run a Debian VM which itself runs Uptime-Kuma and Nextcloud in Docker, so yes that’s on the same hardware.

Yes, Uptime-Kuma is running on the same domain as the other services, except the Nginx-Proxy-Manager, which runs on a VPS which I access via WireGuard. And yes, I’m using Docker. I tried curl’ing one of the domains from the Uptime-Kuma container and got the folllowing error: curl: (35) OpenSSL SSL_connect: SSL_ERROR_SYSCALL in connection to service.datenprolet.duckdns.org:443. So thanks, now I have an idea about what I should investigate.

Isn’t this using a lot of computing power?

What’s costs do you mean? It’s free and open source.

Immich has image and facial recognition by default and a very neat Android app. Also it’s running in my home server, which has more power if Immich needs it. In that case I’d say software should serve one purpose and serve that good. Immich is just for picture management and does that very good. Nextcloud is a cloud and the Photos app is just a small extra that can’t compete with a full-fledged software. Nextcloud runs fine on my Raspberry Pi 4, but it’s only used by me and three friends. It’s mainly limited by your network speed and disk speed I’d say. And I’m using an external hard drive without issues.

I use Nextcloud and Immich and would recommend both. Immich might be a bit overkill, but it’s also well maintained, feature-rich and has a large community. It’s super easy to set up and works great.

It’s easy to use, there are CLI-wrapper and GUIs, it’s crossplattform, deduplicates, compresses, encrypt and based on rsync. I use it for alle backups between machines and networks.

Oh I’m sorry, I thought this was the comment section of an apolitical Linux meme.

I’m sorry, but why does my comment get deleted, when I criticise Aral Balkan for comparing the Genozide in Gaza with the Holocaust and Israel with Nazi Germany?
Both those things are just wrong, not just politically but also historically. Regardless of your position in this conflict.
You might not have to agree with me, that those comparisons are antisemitic, but they are wrong and moreover extremely problematic. And I really don’t mean to say that the Israeli government isn’t a bunch of right-wing racist and there isn’t a horrible humanitarian crisis going in in Gaza.
But Israel is not Nazi Germany and the Genocide in Gaza is not like the Holocaust. And everybody how is saying that must rightfully be criticized for it.

You could use Uptime-Kuma to actually ping any IP every 5 seconds.

But it’s proprietary, unfortunately.

Thanks, looks promising. I’ll give it a try.

I don’t want to configure a whole Dashboard for at least CPU, RAM, Storage and Network for up to 5 hosts.

I used the following dashboard now, but it’s not really satisfying and also doesn’t really fit more than 4 nodes. https://grafana.com/grafana/dashboards/11756-hpc-node-exporter-server-metrics-v2/
