@gnulinux Ich nutze auch seit kurzem #immich und bin sehr zufrieden. Die Installation lief bei mir über #casaos und war super einfach. Für den Zugriff von unterwegs nutze ich aber #WireGuardVPN .

It's not covered in this post, but in as many places as I can, I have opted for #opensource solutions. I'm particularly geeked about replacing Apple Notes with Joplin and switching the synchronization settings from Dropbox to a self-hosted #Joplin server on my #CasaOS.

@khw Schau dir doch mal #nextcloud an. Ich nutz dies auf #casaos mit #tailscale als vpn. nur bestimmte geräte und die freigegeben User kommen drauf.

I think that #Pop_OS is overkill for running CasaOS, especially since I plan to unplug all peripherals and hide the computer away in the corner somewhere.

I'm considering switching to Ubuntu Server which #CasaOS supports.

I've seen people recommend Debian, Xubuntu, and others.

My computer hosting this server is a 2017 Lenovo Thinkstation with i7 processor, 16GB RAM, and a 512GB SSD running the OS.

@beli3ver Das plane ich auch für meine Familie (6 Personen). Momentan nutzen wir alle iCloud. Ich möchte davon aber weg. Zugriff für meine Frau ist mir auch wichtig. Ich habe vor #casaos und #umbrelOS zu testen. Die sehen recht einsteigerfreundlich aus.

@althieme @miugnutos olha, to bem curioso para testar esse aqui

https://www.casaos.io/ #CasaOS

e se usar algo como Tail Scale, DynDNS ou outra forma de contectar a máquina remoto, você meio que cria sua mini cloud privada.

#ZimaOS is out. Super buggy and unreliable.

Currently testing out using #Cockpit on a #Debian server install then adding #CasaOS as the gui front end for files and media serving.

Lets see if this will meet my needs

@notgull @M0CUV there is this thing called #casaos it's a bit less involved for situation like when ppl just want to get some containers up & running and move on. it's more-or-less a wysiwyg for self-hosting fans. that's what i heard so far...

Installing #casaOS was really easy, the docker stuff just worked (I got jellyfin installed) and then I realized... Homeserver, cool - I don't need that at home, my computer is running 24/7, I play music with my local foobar and I don't have a smart TV or Smart Home devices. For backups, I use external HDs, heck even my router already offers a (very very) simple NAS that I can access from outside my home.

There were some of the typical struggles every linux beginner is facing and that makes the differences between Debian and something like Linux Mint more obvious, e.g.

- give my user admin rights
- editing some obscure file to install non-free wifi drivers
- struggling to find the Network Manager in the settings panel
- installing some remote desktop stuff, to login from my windows machine
- installing curl to install #CasaOS
- manage to run debian headless and turn off any power management

So I got a cheap 1TB fanxiang #ssd and the wrong tools, but those Torx screwdrivers came yesterday and I got up early and took the mac mini apart. 30 minutes later I booted #debian 12 from an USB stick. Debian because it was recommended by #CasaOS one of the highly praised home server OS/interfaces.
