Goofed Home

Hi everyone

I’m trying to degoogle as much as possible. I’ve heard about this thing called calDAV and cardDAV but I have no idea how to use it.

With radicale, do I need to install some other somewhere in order to use it?

I’m just looking for basic useage for myself only at this stage. I’d like to be able to self host my own calendar and contacts. Is radicale appropriate for this?

Is it safe to self host a calendar?

Can a self hosted calendar still send and receive invites to other calendars?

Any help greatly appreciated, thank you

mailbox.org is another service that is straightforward to use. You create an account, download davx5, and install any calendar app. It’s paid but cheap (1 €/month)

No worries mate. I was just sitting here jamming some blues on the guitar and felt inspired.

Readme updated today:

This repository is no longer actively maintained.  

The TrueNAS build system previously hosted here has been moved to an internal infrastructure. This transition was necessary to meet new security requirements, including support for Secure Boot and related platform integrity features that require tighter control over the build and signing pipeline.  

No further updates, pull requests, or issues will be accepted. Existing content is preserved here for historical reference only.

Wondering if this is just the first step towards doing a minio in the future.

Uggh, I just got to the point where I’m as familiar with TrueNAS as my old Synology, but I want to move towards more freedom. TrueNAS beats Synology, but where is this going?

From the docs:

The Standard Debian Kernel (selectable) can be used for ZFS. However, since ZFS kernel modules are not installed in the Debian kernel by default, they must be built by the ZFS plugin when it is installed. While this process works, building the modules is a long process that requires continuous access to online repos. Accordingly, the potential for a build error exists. For this reason, while the Standard Kernel is very usable for ZFS, it is not ideal.

This might be an odd setup, but I prefer Pangolin for the easy deployment of a combined Reverse Proxy and VPN but also wanted to play around with Netbird, which provides a mesh VPN.

So I have Pangolin installed on a VPS and connected to my home server which is running the Newt client.
Then I’ve installed Netbird on my home server using the Self-hosting Quickstart Guide. I choose “Other/Manual” when it came to selecting a Reverse Proxy and created the respective public resource in Pangolin for your subdomain. Just add multiple targets for multiple endpoints and enable Advanced Mode:

Just make sure to select h2c instead of http for /signalexchange.SignalExchange and*/management.ManagementService. And obviously replace the 192.168.178.123 with your IP address.

Then start the docker-compose.yml and browse to your subdomain to register your initial account. Done!

Sure. All I said was that it doesn’t actually seem to be run by Mozilla, like you implied it was.

Sunup is simply a client app for Android. It does not do anything on its own.

So we’re in agreement. Not sure why you’re trying to argue with me, then.

I do run it in docker. It used to work great until few months ago. Maybe my provider (Hetzner) ip triggers captcha. Tried tor proxy and it didn’t make much difference. Brave, Startpage, DDG - all periodically throw captcha / too many request errors.

Yeah might be the IP range of the provide. Also sometimes it stops working till you update. But I expect the hetzner IP range has more than one self hosted instance on it so probably gets tagged for the whole range.

With this kind of mentality, nobody will ever migrate and one will have to deal with Discord’s horrible terms and conditions

The only alternative is to willingly leave over a hundred communities, some of which I have strong ties to, and never interact with the majority again.

That’s a big ask.

I’ve been building a self-hosted task manager focused on something I couldn’t find in one package: true offline support and fast sync across devices.

Most open source task apps I tried leaned toward either: - good offline support but weak multi-device sync with no API support - or good sync but limited offline functionality

Will Be Done is my attempt to solve both.

Demo: https://demo.will-be-done.app/

GitHub: https://github.com/will-be-done/will-be-done

Home page: https://will-be-done.app/

What is supported right now: - True offline mode — reads and writes happen in the local browser DB and sync to the server when it becomes available again (so you can still use it even if your homelab is down!) - Fast sync across devices - Tasks and projects with drag-and-drop support - Kanban inside projects - Weekly planner - Recurring tasks - Vim keybindings

Planned in the near future: - CalDAV integration - Import from Todoist / TickTick / Microsoft To Do - API support - MCP support - Desktop app with global quick-add shortcut

Why I built it:

This is my third attempt over the last 3 years to build my ideal task manager, and I now use it daily.

I’ve worked on local-first and sync-heavy systems professionally, so offline-first architecture is something I care a lot about getting right.

Installation:

Single Docker command, no docker-compose, no external dependencies, SQLite included.

docker run -d \
  -p 3000:3000 \
  -v will_be_done_storage:/var/lib/will-be-done \
  --restart unless-stopped \
  ghcr.io/will-be-done/will-be-done:latest

Then open http://localhost:3000/.

Would love feedback from people here, especially if you care about self-hosting, offline-first apps, or replacing proprietary task managers.

Not gonna lie, this looks promising. Keep the good job.

Thanks! I am already building this iteration for one year, and I enjoy it! Both development and daily usage

Honey, I Shrunk The Vids is an overengineered oversimplified system-agnostic frontend for FFMPEG.

This is a followup to a post I made yesterday, about a silly little Windows application I’d made for batch transcoding files. I wanted something that I could just dump my files onto without having to muck about with Handbrake or Tdarr - post here, for those curious: https://piefed.ca/c/selfhosted/p/568748/honey-i-shrunk-the-vids-a-windows-transcoding-frontend-for-ffmpeg

So I spent today making my silly little Windows application a silly little platform-agnostic application. I rewrote the whole thing in Rust and JavaScript with a webview frontend, and apparently Github lets you compile binaries for quite the range of target platforms, so I have compiled binaries available for Windows, Linux, and Mac (Intel/Apple Silicon). I’m pretty pleased with how it’s coming along - if anyone decides to give it a go, please let me know if you find issues!

Make sure to use my butt for that!

This guy blocks everyone who doesn’t like his my butt mess. Interesting

OpenMediaVault. CasaOS. There may be others.

No drop-in replacements fir everything TrueNAS did, but at least something.

Found this utility barely mentioned given how useful it is in the context of limited selfhosting resources.

This could be handy for low powered devices with tools that you only use on occasion, particularly automated stuff

I use it with Grafana. No need to run it all the time especially when it uses CPU while idle.
