  • I settled on a Fujitsu Q920 with 16 GB of RAM and a 1 TB SSD. Runs FreeBSD 14.1 and each service has its own Jail.

    Services:

    DNSmasq - local DNS and adblocker Wireguard Navidrome MPD - Media server Vaultwarden - password save Radicale - cardav and caldav server TinyRSS - RSS aggregator Zabbix - server and service monitoring Postgresql Gitea - git repository Emby - jellyfin alternative Mariadb Bhyve VM with Debian running 2 apps (invoiceplane and leantime) which use a quite old php version and I never had time to port to Freebsd.

    A second machine that starts daily and creates a backup of machine 1 by using ZFS autobackup.

    Nothing fancy but it does what I need.




  • I was debating between getting myself a NAS or some PC to setup my homelab. I decided for a PC as it gives me more freedom to install and personalize it the way I want.

    At the moment I’m running FreeBSD with jails on a Q920 with an i5 processor, 16 GB of RAM, one internal SSD with 512 GB and 2 external USB SDDs with each 1 TB which costed me around 300 Euros.

    Seems more than enough for the services I want to provide to myself which are the following.

    Navidrome > serves all my music locally and remotely.

    Zabbix > to monitor my servers

    DNSMasq > ad blocking and local dns

    gitea > repo for code and other docs

    Transmission > torrenting

    Radicale > webcal and webdav

    Photoprism > local photo gallery

    Vaultwarden > Password manager

    SearXNG > search

    HAproxy > to serve my public content easily to the web

    Mastodon

    Emby > local media server

    And I run a Linux VM on bhyve to serve 2 tools that I was not able to make work easily on FreeBSD.

    Besides that, the node replicates some data from my VPS as a backup solution.

    And I can’t complain at all. That PC is doing its job just fine. No need for any rack that uses huge amount of electricity.


  • Same here. I’m using mainly FreeBSD on my servers so docker is a no go due to lack of support. I have to stick with Photoprism for now as it offers a install without docker and it does the job for me. Anyhow, I’m not happy with the trend that most FOSS projects today limit the deployment on docker and do not offer a way of a plain install on you *nix system of choice.














  • Ok. Es kann sein das ich mich nicht im guten Deutsch ausgedrückt habe. Ich bin zwar hier geboren aber dann mit 11 wegen der Eltern ausgewandert. Wenn man aber etwas tolerant ist und den Text ganz durchliest, sieht man ja das ich mich geimpft habe, bin also kein Antivaxer.

    Zu Deinem Punkt das der Verlauf der Krankheit milder ist wenn man geimpft ist. Leider kann ich das nicht bestätigen da der Verlauf bei mir immer der gleiche war. Hatte es nun zum vierten Mal und nur diese letzte Erkrankung war kürzer. Und es war nicht die die ich nach der Impfung bekommen habe.

    Wie auch immer. Die Skepsis ist nun da ob es wirklich einen Unterschied macht ob ich mich nun nochnal impfen lasse oder eher nicht. Muss ja verständlch sein aber viele schieben dich dann gleich auf die Konspirationsschiene.
