Hey Fediverse! 👋
New here and looking to connect with folks in #OTSec, #SmartHome, #HomeAutomation, #KNX, oversized #Homelab setups (#Proxmox / #OPNsense / #Docker) and the whole #FOSS / #OpenSource world.
Also into #3DPrinting and currently turning my house into a fully automated playground. 🛠️🏡
Say hi if you’re into similar things!

@ChrisLink  Hello!
What are you running / hoping to run with your setup?

I've got most things I need now, I just need to decide on which photo storing/sharing software to use. None of them (so far) are perfect :/

@chewie Behind the scenes, my setup runs on Proxmox as the hypervisor, with a now fairly large Docker VM (Portainer) inside it. All data lives on a Ugreen NAS, and the network stack is managed with OPNsense + UniFi / MikroTik.

Key services in daily use: Nextcloud, Home Assistant, Paperless-NGX, GitLab, Immich, Jellyfin — plus the usual IT admin overhead… because it’s fun. 😄⚙️

What does your setup look like? Already tested Immich?

@ChrisLink @chewie Does Immich support guest/public access yet? That’s what originally stopped me from switching over.
@ClickyMcTicker @chewie Turns out it can do that now! 😄
Though honestly… I’ve never actually tested it myself. Everyone in the family just has their own user, and so far that’s been more than enough.
@ClickyMcTicker @ChrisLink you can share a publicly accessible link to albums on Immich, and can control whether people with the link can view, download and upload. That what you're looking for?

@ChrisLink Nice!
I'm using an old version of vmware on 2 servers. One to run some web servers, DokuWiki, LibreNMS, TPLink Omada Controller, Technitium DNS (like pihole), Redmine, ntfy, Yacy, SearxNG, Jitsi, BBB, Axigen, Hauk, Openfire (Jabber), Owncloud, ProjectSend, Privatebin, Netbox and OpenDCIM.

I need to reinstall NetXMS and really try and migrate everything off LibreNMS at some point as I prefer it.

On the other is my Fediverse server, which runs Mastodon, mastowall, Peertube, and Pixelfed, although I don't really use Pixelfed and it seems to have de-federated itself from everyone else ;(

I have another old server that is running OPNsense.

I tried Immich, but there didn't seem to be a way of adding custom tag / descriptions. The "AI" bit seems mainly for people, but I will mostly be categorizing these guys: @Rabbits

I should try Immich again as it has changed since I last tried.
I'm veering towards Photoprism atm, but I really need to make a spreadsheet of the pros and cons :/

Edit: oh, and I'm running Valheim for some friends.

@chewie @Rabbits Wow, that sounds wild — in a good way! Respect! 😄
I keep having to look up some of these services just to figure out what they actually do.
Do you have a Matrix instance as well? That’s still on my to-do list.

@ChrisLink 🙏

Haha, sorry, I should have provided links.
No, I think XMPP is enough for chat (as it now can do audio and video calls on android) for me at the mo, although I hear it's a good system.

@chewie Took a look at Matrix + Element today — and wow, it seems like a really solid replacement for my old TS3 server, which I’ve grown pretty tired of using. Modern features, self-hosted, open — I like it! 🚀

@hans06801 @chewie Thanks! It looks great and reads well.
Sadly, there seems to be no voice/video chat — and voice is a must-have for me. 🔊
@ChrisLink @hans06801 same for me unfortunately

@chewie @ChrisLink

Delta Chat has already 1-on-1 video calls (beta) but no group chat yet.

Latest version 2.25 and enable Debug Calls

Help testing upcoming Delta Chat release with calls 📞!

Short answer: no. In order to always be able to connect, at least one of the parties has to use a Chatmail server, because Chatmail servers (will) come with a TURN server. Without a TURN server it’s not guaranteed that the two parties can connect to each other. Sometimes they still can, (by using just a STUN server, which is used even for non-Chatmail accounts), but in most cases they can not. AFAIK this is still under consideration, i.e. whether to just disable the “call” feature for non-Cha...

Nice! I don't think jabber can do group calls yet either.
