I am setting up my notes approach which is using dedicated apps on my devices plus syncthing.

I tried lots of tools like Joplin obsidian etc but are too overkill or had something I don't like.

So I am using markor on android and another dedicated app on Linux and so on.

I would like to add also a web app to edit the MD files directly on my server when I don't have any way to install syncthing or an editor app.

The web GUI would need to list the MD files local on the server and let me edit/view/save them. Upload and download is not required as I already have that setup via filebrowser.

Any hints?

Edit: to be clear, i am not looking for an IDE or anything fancy, i only need to edit some notes online on my server. I do not want to spin containers or deploy full VS solutions just for this, all i need is a web gui editor for MD with the capability to load files on the server

Second edit: i ended up selfhosting Silverbullet.md which made my day. Exactly what i was looking for, even more than that. Thanks all!

I have finally got my selfhost wiki up to a satisfying shape. Its here: https://wiki.gardiol.org

Take a look i hope it can help somebody.

I am open to any suggestions about it.

Note: the most original part is the one about multi-homed routing and failbacks and advanced routing.

Hi fellow sailors,

i have lots of downloaded... ISOs... that i need to converto to save space. I would like to make them all of the same size, let's say 720p, and same format, let's say h265.

I am on linux and the... ISOs... are sorted into a neatly named hierarchy of sub-folderds, which i want to preserve too. What is the best tool (CLI) for the scope? I can use ffmpeg with a bash script, but is there anything better suited?

Let's say i download an iso for my latest favourite distro and, after unpacking the rar (usenet) i find the right contents but all the filenames are a bunch of hexadecimal strings. The files are legit, but how do i "decode" the names to know which one is file n.1, file n.2 and so on?

Qualcuno che scarica, diciamo..., tante ISO di Linux, usate VPN in Italia o no? E se si, quale?

Le scaricate tramite Usenet o solo Torrent?

Io sto sperimentando usenet ma mi pare ci siamo poche ISO on italiano...

I use Joplin and I do like it very much, but I would like to be able to at least view (not edit) the notes from web browser... Which is not supported.

Are there good alternatives that are:

• fully open source
• have android client
• have web client or viewer
• can be synched VOA WebDAV or native method

I can also settle for a Joplin web viewer of sorts!

UPDATE: i opened up a can of worms. I would have never tought there would be so many tools for this task, and so many different shades of how it can be done. Even excluding ALL the non-truly-FOSS solutions out there, there are still tons of tools with good points and bad points. Of course, NONE fits my bill so i will spin mine… Joking, i have no time for that.

Using joplib-webview feels too much. Spinning containers just for that meh. Will try tough. The joplin .md files are only "sync" files, from which yo ucan probably extract the notes. But that would be not the best idea. Maybe some kind of link to Joplin terminal would be the way forward. I will see.

I will stay on Joplin, it's the closest i could find to what i need, the only lacking is a web viewer, which i can live without for the time being after all.

Thank you all, and to anybody still chiming in!

After all the amazing reviews and post i read immich I decided to give it a try.

To be honest I am quite impressed, it's fast and polished, it just works.

But I found a few quirks, and hit a wall with the developer that doesn't seems kind to listen to users that much (on these issues at least!)

Maybe you guys have suggestions?

Here I go:

One: it does not support base URLs, witch means that I had to spin a dedicated sub domain to be able to access it over internet while all my other services are on a single sub domain. I can work with that, but why. Dev already shut this request down in the past as "insecure". Which I find baffling. (I mean use mydomain/immich instead of immich.mydomain)

Two: auth cannot be tied to reverse proxy. I get it, it provides OAuth. But it's much more complex than proxy based auth... And overkill for many cases, mine for sure.

Three: impossible to disable authentication at all, which would just work fine in my use case. There is a switch that seems for that, but no, it's only for using OAuth.

Four: I cannot find a way to browse by location, only by map. (Locations list seems to be half baked unless I am missing something).

Five: no way to deploy on bare metal, and I tried! due to lack of documentation (only info I found where very very outdated), and no willingness to provide info about that either. Seems that docker is so much better that supporting bare metal is a waste of time.

Six: basically impossible to manage easily public albums. like a public landing page. I get this might be outside immich scope.

Seven: even if now you can import existing libraries, it still does not detect albums withinbthem (sub folders) which is very annoying.

So, overall its a great project and very promising, faster and more reliable than Libre Photos in my use case, but still lacking some basic features that the Dev seems not interested in adding. He developed it to please his wife, I get it :) - no pun intended, doing all this take lots of time, I know.

These are the alternatives I know of:

Photo prism requires a subscription for reverse Geo coding.

LibrePhotos feels sluggish and kind if abandoned.

Are there any others? (Piwigo and Lytchee are great tools, but different kind of tools)

Let's hope for immich, Dev is working a lit, let's hope for the best.

Hi! Question in the title.

I get that its super easy to setup. But its really worthwhile to have something that:

• runs everything as root (not many well built images with proper useranagement it seems)
• you cannot really know which stuff is in the images: you must trust who built it
• lots of mess in the system (mounts, fake networks, rules...)

I always host on bare metal when I can, but sometimes (immich, I look at you!) Seems almost impossible.

I get docker in a work environment, but on self hosted? Is it really worth while? I would like to hear your opinions fellow hosters.

Sono cliente FWA Vodafone da un anno, ogni volta che c'è un problema e chiamo il 190 (successo tre volte) nei giorni seguenti vengo bombardato di chiamate fastidiose e ripetitive da un callcenter (lo stesso?) che mi propone di passare a TIM perché tanto Vodafone non funzionerà mai per (... Motivi improbabili e tecnicamente assurdi... ). Solo dopo che li mando a vagare più volte viene pii risolto il problema su Vodafone.

Sono paranoico o è capitato ad altri?

(Sono sempre tutti call center che rispondono dall'Albania)

PS: dal 26/12 ho 0.03mb/sec, il ticket di supporto tecnico Vodafone "va avanti" solamente dopo che ho risposto a bestemmie alle gentili operatrici del call center Albanese di TIM... Secondo me sono lo stesso call center del 190 che fa il doppio lavoro...)

Aggiornamento: ho candidamente chiesto al call center. Mi hanno detto che lo stesso call center gestisce entrambi gli operatori tramite lo stesso software, per cui vedono le segnalazioni aperte e to chiamano sperando che tu cambi operatore, loro guadagnano a commissione sui contratti chiusi...

Bella serietà da parte di Vodafone e TIM servirsi di call center cosi "shady".

Well, i decided to brush up my simple HTML page and created a fully linked wiki on the subject. Please take a look, in the hope it will be useful for at least one fellow one-eyed leg-pegged passionate data hoarder.

Any hints or suggestions is appreciated.

Hi all fellow sailors. After having spent lots of time and effort recently to properly setup my environment, i have put toghether (more for MY personal future reference than anything) the guide linked to this post. It's not done, a few things are missing, but i hope it could be usefull also for more people in the future.
