It’s self hosting. Is it home lab? Nope. Though plenty of people use VPS as a way to terminate their VPN connections and such.

$28 a year??? Woah.

My recommendation (sorry for the delay in response) would be not to use it as a base. Use the image as such. It has in-built features for screenshots, for using puppeteer, etc. So just use those. Any issues with that approach?

By the way, if you get XVfb running for puppeteer (a little further down in the readme), let me know.

Try using this following project as your base image before throwing puppeteer on it (or use the inbuilt functionality to take screenshots). It includes Jessie Frazelle’s seccomp profile. If you want nightmares, go read her blogpost about it. Otherwise just let it be and follow the setup guide in the readme of this project -

You wanna know a fun way to do this?

GitHub (and I think Gitlab too) supports you running their runner within your own infra. It’s literally a binary that needs permissions and space. Then, you can tell your git repo to use that runner to run docker compose and as part of the “build” process, deploy you container to the same or an in-network machine.

This is not secure, it’s probably going to involve a lot of hard coding of local IPs or server names etc. But you can make it work.

I use this way to get a Win11 PC to run some regular containers on itself. Works like a charm.

Thanks for the explanation!

Can you please “installing applications and finding files splattered all over the file system”, please kind person?

How does Linux do it better?

lol someone was concerned about the Chinese military using Meta’s AI models and now the company has opened its models for US military use. Hypocrisy runs high in this timeline.

I agree with others that you need to break down these requirements into multiple apps. I use FreshRSS for feeds and it has a bunch of mobile app integrations.

And the most recent update of Linkwarden seems to have a ton of features that might be worth your while, including PDF, screenshot, and Readable caching.

So… Amazon (the latest big name, not the only one)

Could it be that the one who tweets is also this scammer?

I’ve used pyTK to make some apps for personal use. Good stuff, somewhat easy to use once you follow some tutorials.

Now that you’ve dubbed OP a tech person…

Hey OP, can you help me fix my printer? It’s only printing “RED RUM RED RUM” for some reason.

Thanks!

Yeah but you still afford clothes while whittling down that list 😜

So do you run a tailscale exit node on one of the public clouds or a VPS provider like DigitalOcean?

Nice app! I do have an android device sitting around doing nothing. Will use this app if I ever get into it!

Ah, I’m not going there yet. OpenWRT is an eventual goal. But right now I’m stuck with devices that do not support it. I’m ok with alternate solutions.

huh. Never thought about public pihole servers. So nice of those folks running them.

I don’t understand how you’re saying you’ve stopped self-hosting VPN and are still using tailscale. Are you using their SaaS service? Does that allow you to set your own DNS? Do they have speed limits? Are they zero-logs?
