Never noticed. I don't do anything with the cookies anyway, its just a docuwiki self hosted, no ads, no data collection, nothing. I don't even store logs.

I might need to write the privacy policy... Will do tomorrow.

I went trough them all and probably a few more (photoview) and Immich is by far the best. Also at that pace of development it will be perfect soon.

Its by far the fastest for thumbnails and indexing so far at least on my hardware.

Dockers images are often incoherent and just different from one a other so much that you should never give something as expected and doublecheck the basics.

Docker was never meant do deploy services, and I shows.

Why is that? Really? The Dev should replace a system function? And implement over and over again the same errors when logrotate exist?

Probably, but still, if they are, just rotate them.

Just basic checks I prefer to ensure, not leave to distribution good faith. If all is set, good to go. Otherwise, fix and move on.

Specially with self hosted stuff that is a bit more custom than the usual.

With my bike does it count? If so, yesterday multiple times to avoid speed bumps on the road.

Plot twist: op is your coworker

Agreed, but going container route those nice basic practices are dead.

And also, being mextcloud a php service, of can't by definition ship with a logrotate config too, because its never packaged by your repo.

Are you crazy? I understand that we are used to dumbed down stuff, but come on...

Rotating logs is in the ABC of any sysadmin, even before backups.

First, secure your ssh logins, then secure your logs, then your fail2ban then your backups...

To me, that's in the basic stuff you must always ensure.

You should always setup logrotate. Yes the good old Linux logrotate...

The VPS is required specially if you, like me, are behind CG-NAT with no way to escape from it. Using a VPS (or any other kind of server with a public IP). Using a VPS is the cheapest option...

residential IPs can be blocked for ports like 80, 443, 22 and the email ports in general (25, etc), using a non-residential IP could give a better experience. Moreover, even if not behind CG-NAT, having a public static and not-changing IP is a good advantage.

Everything is hosted locally! the VPS is only a tunnel between internet and the home server.

I have documented my journey here: https://wiki.gardiol.org/

On short, rent a vps and setup wireguard, then start self hosting everithing you can put yours hands on!!

Is this real or a joke?

Hey, you forget about Gentoo Linux!

The real distro for newbies... (Provided the newbies are expert cs graduated and crazy nerds...)

All depends on what a beginner is... Not all beginners are tech illiterates or people who only want to use office.

Daily toward all my three locations:

• local on the server
• in-house but on a different device
• offsite

But not all three destinations backup the same amount of data due to storage limitations.

1 backup on a local, Independence disk. 1 backup on a HDD connected to an OpenWRT router at the other end of the house 1 backup on my remote vps.

Restic+backrest

Sftp for remote endpoint

I use and love nginx.

Maybe a bit more old fashioned than more modern solutions, but steady solid and versatile. I use it as reverse proxy ad well as proxy for php stuff and more.

Laws serve the purpose of protecting ownership and owners, that defines what is lawful or not.

So, it is working as intended.

Legally speaking you lose the license to all the games because you don't own the games only a license to use those games.

And the game owners have only licensed the games to the gaming platform (steam, etc) with the license to re-license those to you. Ceasing to exist the middleman, also your end of the license is invalidated.

You would need to negotiate a license to use each game again with somebody else or you are effectively pirating the game.

This doesn't matter if there are DRM or no DRM. This not a technical aspect. Pirating means using without being legally allowed to, circumventing DRM or not is just the difference between breaking into your home or finding a non locked door to enter without damaging the house. Its still stealing.

Don't get mad, I do not condone DRM and I don't think piracy is stealing, it was just an example from a legal point of view

IANAL, but had to study the field for work related stuff.
