If you don't expose to the internet at large, yes you would need a VPN.

This is the docs you need https://companion.home-assistant.io/docs/notifications/critical-notifications/

I might have to have a look into that, could be a great way to get the wife to do things

Yes, I do, it's too early 😞

I would use Shelly for relays, sonoff for sensors

If your in the market for WiFi stuff, shelly is my go-to. They have local access, ha integration and even mqtt if thats your bag

If you have data else where on your server, you can use the options to volume to direct the mount there

driver: local driver_opts: type: none o: bind device: '/your/current/data'

Also reading the compose spec will help

I do this, 1 compose file per application. That has all the things that application need, volumes, networks, secrets.

In single docker host land, each application even has its own folder with the compose file and any other artifacts in it.

Pro tip, opera's built in VPN to India will get you YouTube family premium for about £6.

If you can use it of course

On my 40/10 line, it's got way more bandwidth then the VDSL has

If your self hosting your outgoing mail, remember to setup DKIM, SFP AND DMARC.

With all that setup, you should be fine

I use Debian for my self host stuff, I did start out with Mandrake and webmin. but after wanting to customise some config, I moved to deb

Try !foxessinverter@lemmy.horwood.cloud

Added to the description, will remember that for next time

my bad, that any better?

Me, I've not had covid and its been in the house 3 times. I also have 100% attendance at work

Remember to back that up, and test the back at intervals to make sure they work

I run a vm for each service, a php vm, a mysql vm, etc. But yes you could just have a big vm run everything

I run Debian on all my vms, they have no GUI installed at all. I manage all of them over SSH

Would Alpine be an option?

I use debian as my OS for docker host, then install docker from them as you get the most up to date version
