Need assistance with Rocket chat. I have my rocket chat running in my internal network using cloudflare tunnels. I have a VPS configured as coturn. When I set my coturn info in Rocket chat, I still don't see an audio or video call option. Using call just starts a Jitsi call instead of using my coturn server for audio/video call in direct messages. Can someone assist and let me know what I am doing wrong? Thank you. @[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected]

Selfhosted coturn server Rocket chat Configuration.

Selfhosted coturn server Rocket chat Configuration.

I spun up a coturn VPS server and configured the turn server in rocket chat WEBRTC configuration. However, when I try a call button to have a private audio call, it still starts up jitsi instead of doing a direct call using my turn server. Can someone tell me the right configuration to make it work like a regular voice or video chat/call? Thanks.

    @[email protected] @[email protected] I was just curious. If a project is started as opensource and we have bunch of community members contribute to the project, either to the code or financially. What happens to the community contributions when that project decides that it is no longer going to be opensource?

    Are there no license restrictions against this practice as the contributors were led to believe that they are contributing to an opensource project.

    Can they close source community contributions?

  • @Dirk thanks. That's how I did it but I am not sure if updating using docker compose would overwrite it. Portainer is running on a VM so I will make sure to snapshot it and try so I can restore it if needed.

  • @Catsrules Thanks. This specific to Immich. The upload location in the docker-compose is picked from .env file. I, for the life of me, cannot figure out how to mount the portainer SMB volume in the .env file. What I ended up doing was to select the containers using the upload location and edit the volume to attach the SMB share volume from portainer. I hope what I said makes sense. I am just a newbie learning docker right now.

  • Need recommendations on something like Vaultwarden but for 2FA only.
  • @fedonr Vaultwarden also has 2FA option. You can use that if it fits in their workflow.

  • How much power does your home lab take?
  • @hungover_pilot Way more than I would like but the way I see it, it's cheaper than drinking and I learn in the process so I take it as a cost of entertainment :)

    @LineageOS @degoogle #degoogle I have two phones that I need to degoogle. A Samsung Note 5 and Huawei P30 pro. Lineage OS does not support either of them. Can someone recommend instructions on how I can achieve this. Basically degoogle, desamsung and dehuawei the two phones. I would prefer Lineage OS but since it is not officially supported for these phones, I will settle for getting it done in stock ROM as well.

    I need help to decided on a name for my Lemmy instance
  • @AlecSadler @seafootball Or seasoccer depending on what side if the pond you are from 🤣

  • is nextcloud still the best to host a small amount of files that need to be accessible anywhere and backed up? and carddav caldav
  • I use both Seafile and Nextcloud. I use nextcloud for exactly your use case. File sharing, contact Sync and Calendar Sync. I backup my nextcloud files to seafile. It works perfectly for my use case.

  • What can the 'average Joe' start hosting, that will change their life?
  • @XTornado What are you Synching with? In my case, I self host my Joplin server and on my local network, it took around a minute to Sync a few thousand notes on my Android phone.

  • What can the 'average Joe' start hosting, that will change their life?
  • @XTornado @xaxl You can set the Sync interval on Joplin. I have mine set to 5 mins so it Sync every 5 mins and the first sync when I start the app takes a few seconds.

  • Can I use external hard drive with laptop for self hosting?
  • @JustEnoughDucks I started with this setup. Proxmox on my laptop with an external 1 TB USB 3 drive added to proxmox as storage. It would work great for getting started and learning. I/O via USB 3 could be an issue so make sure you don't use this setup for intensive Read/Write operations. But use it as a lab setup and it would work great.
    PS: Once I moved to bigger servers, I still use my laptop proxmox for testing services before I roll them out to my production servers.

  • @coolie15 Thing I like about LibreTube is that I can point it to my own hosted Invidious instance. This way I am also in control of the backend

  • Hardware for surveillance?
  • @jcg I use iSPY agent DVR running as a docker container in a VM on proxmox. It records 24/7 to a 2TB external drive mounted on the docker container. Its really lightweight and great for my use.
    I was so impressed by the performance that I went ahead and paid for a premium membership to Agent DVR. I have a mix of cameras and it seems to work with all of them without issues.

  • @fomo_erotic I generally look at the suggested content below the video I am watching and it generally works in exposing me to new content. I use LibreTube but I am not sure if the same is available for other FOSS apps.

    In my journey to #degoogle myself, today after many years, I have deactivated my YouTube premium account. Was a challenge to setup LibreTube for the wife and kids and to bring over all their subscriptions, but I think it will be worth it in the long run. My biggest challenge right now is to find a solution with #tutanota to sync my Android contacts and calender so I can close down my Gmail account. @degoogle

    Anyone else use their crappy old laptops to host servers? lol
  • @rockhandle That's how I started. Proxmox on a 9 year old laptop with LXC and VMs. Even now that laptop runs proxmox with pfsense and pihole VMs and is serving as my home router :)

  • Best things to host on a raspberry pi
  • @joshuaacasey @Krafting I have two pihole instances running at home as primary and secondary DNS servers. They are both on separate nodes and that helps to make sure the wife and kids are not without internet when I am screwing around in my homelab.
