I can see some minor benefits - I use it for the odd bit of mundane writing and some of the image creation stuff is interesting,, and I knew that a lot of people use it for coding etc - but mostly it seems to be about making more cash for corporations and stuffing the internet with bots and fake content. Am I missing something here? Are there any genuine benefits?
I'm running OwnCloud in Docker and have setup NGinx as a reverse proxy. This works perfectly for all my other services, but OwnCloud keeps throwing the untrusted domain error. I've edited the config.php file to add my exampledemain.com but no dice. Does anybody know what I need to do?
[SOLVED] People of Lemmy. I'm trying (and failing) to get a friend onto my Tailnet. These are the steps: (1) I send them an invite. (2) They accept it. (3) I approve it. (4) They open the app and login. And ... nothing. They don't show up as connected on my admin panel and they can't access any of my connected machines (IP address is fine). I feel like I'm missing something really obvious but can't see what it is. Any ideas?
EDIT: All fixed. Needed to share machine directly, but this doesn't work for regular users. Once I deleted them as a user and then shared it was all good. Thanks everyone!
I recently switched to iDrive for my backup needs but couldn't work out how to get it running on Linux. iDrive provide a series of scripts for Debian machines but this is obviously no good for non Debian systems (using Nixos here). I read about a method of hacking the scripts so they think you're running Debian, but this didn't work. Anyway, I eventually figured it out and thought I'd share the workaround here in case it's useful to anyone. The solution is to use Distrobox. Just set up a Debian box there and run the scripts as described. It took me 2-3 goes to get the dependencies installed but now it's all great and working as intended. Good luck, fellow iDrive users.
Just curious to see what people are up to. I've been using Nixos for a while. It's fabulous and I have absolutely no reason to switch, but part of me is itching to hop to Debian or maybe OpenSUSE. How about you?
Hi all. Noob question/s here. I want to be able to access my Immich server (docker) externally and maybe set up some others (e.g. Mealio). My understanding is that I need (should) use NGINX reverse proxy for this. My questions are:
Do I need to set up NGINX on a VPS (or similar cloud based server) to send the queries to my home box?
Do I need to purchase a domain (randomblahblah.xyz) to use as the main access route from outside my house?
Thanks a lot.
