I saw you starting to put the stars in just as this other plan was starting so I thought I’d better give you a heads up!

On it! I’ll try to see how I can merge it into that crow thing too.

@Fizz@lemmy.nz FYI this is what we are working on in this space.

If you’ve got a template I can work on it!

Do you have a plan (or an idea) for this white joining part?

Ah I just assumed because they all look the same, but maybe you’re right!

Yeah I guess so, but every site seems to be a Shop App now so it’s hardly more than one company anyway 😅

Who is behind it and how do you know they are trustworthy? I wasn’t able to find much info but it seems it’s just some company (not a non profit / charity or anything). I know they have paid plans but it seems they also have an incentive or at least an ability to sell your purchase data?

Yip. It might not have been clear but my point was that if you have a SearXNG instance set up and running well, then Kagi may well not be worth the cost since you’ve already got most of its strengths.

If you’re there with Searx then it’s pretty similar to how Kagi works. Kagi sends requests to various search providers and has some of its own index then shows results based on the various sources.

I found Searx/Searxng slow, 5-6 seconds per query (to get a response from each source), though it seems others have it working faster. Might have been some IP or rate limiting issue.

Kagi has easy ways to raise/lower rankings and users can report AI slop pages to have them removed, but all in all Searx gives pretty good results.

I’m using ntfy for notifications. I have some other notifications go through it too so it’s not only used for that.

I guess I just feel like if I need to know something (something is offline etc) then I need a notification, I don’t want to have to be checking a dashboard. I use Uptime Kuma for this.

I see your point with Jellyfin, but I also have the clicks to find active streams as muscle memory and it’s not needed that often so I don’t think I’d go setting up a dashboard just for that.

I used to go for a dashboard like this, but one day I realised none of the stats are actually helpful for anything and stopped using it.

Oh for sure Kodi would be easier, I was just clarifying that there are reasons to pick Jellyfin over Kodi even if it’s only ever internal to your network.

I mean, I’d still prefer Jellyfin as its a server (we actually use Kodi for playing the content).

Even within the house, you could stream to multiple different devices. If you use something like Findroid you could download stuff for playing offline on your phone, no external access needed.

Just when you think you’ve got all the arrs you need, you find another that could benefit your stack.

The documentation says it’s possible to send test notification:

That whole notification section is not familiar at all. There is current work to completely redo Monica and when I view their beta at https://beta.monicahq.com/ then it seems to reflect that new version. So I suspect that documentation is wrong for the current version (which hasn’t been meaningfully updated in years).

In addition to what rhe other user asked, what do logs say, how are you configuring emails?

Thanks for posting this question! I have the same problem and never thought to ask 😑

It does, yeah. If you aren’t averse to cloudflare then it’s a great option.

From memory I think it’s limited to http/https traffic, but that’s normally not an issue, just have all your services behind a reverse proxy.

You sound like you want to go all in on federated services but there are plenty of other things to do.

I love Nextcloud, works well when set up through the Nextcloud All In One docker setup, but it is a little different to other things so it might not be a starting point depending on your experience. Lots of apps to add for extra functionality. But don’t replace your cloud storage with it until you’re confident of your backups (and ability). I ran it for years to use for the apps and minor things before I finally went all in.

I think a wiki is a great thing to have. Use it to document what you’ve done so you can remember.

Then there’s media. With the storage I guess TV/movies might be out, but there’s Audiobookshelf for Audiobooks, Kavita or Calibre Web for eBooks. I like Jellyfin for music (but using the Finamp app not the Jellyfin one), but others like dedicated music setups like Navidrone.

I buy my music from Bandcamp where available and Qobuz where it’s mainstream labels, then I can have my own little Spotify. Finamp even lets you download playlists or your whole library to your device for offline listening. I use Findroid for watching things, which also allows downloading. Last I checked the Jellyfin app didn’t have Netflix-like downloading, just downloading the files to your downloads folder.

I guess you might not fit a whole lot with 300GB storage though, especially after you fit the databases of half a dozen federated services.

If you have space, perhaps a photo service like Immich or Photoprosm.

If you have friends maybe a private sharing forum like Zusam.

If you have family then maybe family tree software like webtrees.

I run so many things, they all get used, and I’m always happy to talk about them!

That’s an interesting proof of concept, but I don’t think it shows it’s different. That’s a server side attack, whoever has control of the server could just have the script download a malicious binary instead and you wouldn’t be able to tell from the script.
