How’s your stuff doing? Unplanned interruptions or achieving uptime records?

I’m currently sailing rather smooth. Most of my stuff is migrated to Komodo, there will stay some exceptions and I only have to migrate Lemmy itself I think. Of course that’s when I found a potential replacement but I’ll let it sit for a while before touching it again. Enjoying the occasional Merge Request notification from the Renovate Bot and knowing my stuff is mostly up to date.

I’m thinking about setting up some kind of Wiki for my other niche hobby (Netrunner LCG) lore as there’s a fandom one that most people avoid touching and updating but since I likely won’t have time to start writing some articles on my own as a kickoff I’m hesitant. Also not sure which wiki I’d choose as well.

    I started out rewriting my network backup scripts only to realize I was adding functionality to a previous script I wrote to automatically mount and dismount luks encrypted volumes. I still want to type in my luks passphrase because I don’t want everything automated and prefer to include inconvenience as an additonal security measure in securing some of my data.

    I also came to the realization recently that the reason I don’t relate strongly to other self hosters is because I’ve unknowingly been trying to create a minimal self hosted system that is more beneficial to small, low powered devices.

    I’ve been using Alpine Linux, I install only the bare, older but well established tools and have been creating scripts soley based off those tools instead of seeking out bigger, more complicated modern tools. For example creating workflows by only using rsync or using https://github.com/RayCC51/BashWrite to create a blog that only uses bash and GNU sed to create a static blog site.

    At least now that I’m aware of this, I can keep an eye out for such projects or communities and would hopefully be able to contribute something in that direction.

      There’s absolutely nothing wrong with minimal. The way technology is in this timeline, you really don’t need a lot to get a lot out of it.
