Someone should keep an eye on Linus.

Yes the interface is a mess. But it’s ridiculously deep once you get into it.

I see you already have an answer using podman.

But don’t be afraid of the command line. If you can copy/paste a few commands, it’s pretty easy to set up.

I honestly find installing docker harder than to start a locally hosted searxng instance.

Also, something like self-hosting your own email is way harder and requires a lot more maintenance. I’d leave that project to further down the line.

Not sure it will solve your problem, but if you’re not happy with the public SearXNG instances, you can run your own instance of SearXNG on your local machine, and even set up custom filters and redirects to get rid of SEO junk.

It’s been a while since I’ve set up my pi hole, but you shouldn’t need a monitor, the initial configuration should be done through the command line.

Once it’s set up, you’ll have a webpage inside your network that you can visit to monitor / configure further.

That being said, you can connect any HDMI monitor to a raspberry pi, and it should work.

You’re welcome!

Had no idea that thunderbird didn’t do it, sounds like a pretty basic feature to me.

I’m not sure I understand… I thought all readers did this.

Doesn’t liferea do it? (It’s also gtk iirc)

Thanks! Giving it a try, so far it’s my favorite.

I just noticed, that keyboard was created by one of the Lemmy Devs.

Quite fitting to see it posted here

• ls / cd for basic stuff

• fzf if I want to find my way through the history

• broot if I want to search for a file

• ripgrep if I want to find a file with specific contents.

I know that the last 3 are not available by default, but they are good pieces of software, so I’m just going to install them.

That is really out there!

Probably not going to use it (since I’m already too used to normal keyboards), but props to the devs for developing something different.

Yes, those are all great uses of it. But could all still be achieved with docker containers running on some machines at home, right?

Have you ever had a situation where features provided by kubernetes (like replicas, load balancers, etc) came in handy?

I’m not criticizing, I’m genuinely curious if there’s a use-case for kubernetes for personal self-hosting (besides learning).

Seems a bit overkill for a personal use selfhosting set-up.

Personally, I don’t need anything that requires multiple replicas and loadbalencers.

Do people who have homelabs actually need them? Or is it just for learning?

This is not inside any application, just a simple bashrc alias if I want to connect to a database to do some quick checks on my terminal.

I have proper secrets managers when dealing with credentials inside code.

When dealing with PostgreSQL databases, I use pass as a replacement for ~/.pgpass.

Like this:

alias my_db='PGPASSWORD=$(pass databases/my_db) psql -h (...)'

This means I don’t have to store database passwords in plaintext inside the ~/.pgpass file.

You can get both qwant, duckduckgo, and Google with SearXNG, unless the instance you used had a config to not have them as an option…

That’s why I just prefer to use my own.

I’m still not sure what I’ll do next, I just know I don’t like the saga so far

You can’t stop now!

I’m getting emotionally invested in this saga.
