Self-hosted YouTube frontend with some additional features

I've been running Viewtube in my homelab for my family after the actual YouTube started misbehaving. Was it because I use Firefox? DNS adblock? Unlock origin? Who knows!

I absolutely love that with Viewtube I can make the front page only my subscriptions. It seems to be relatively low on resource usage as well.

But lately, the lack of features is starting to get to me - namely closed captions and "Add to queue".

Are there any other self hosted options that are more feature rich in this regard?

Hello again!!

Sorry for the big delay in the announcements. I know it has been a long time I have not made any announcements, but I will try my best next time this doesn't happen again.

So, through the medium of this post I would like to share with you all the v1.15.0 major release version of the websurfx project which was released on the 25th of March.

If you are new, and you don't know what is websurfx then I would suggest taking a look at my previous post here:

https://programming.dev/post/2678496

Which covers in depth about what the project is and why it exists.

Credits

Before I share with you the changelog, what this release version means and a preview on what we are planning to work on for the next major release v2.0.0. I would first like to thank all our contributors and maintainers because of whom this was all possible. Specially I would like to thank spencerjibz, ddotthomas and evanyang1 who have been invaluable to the project. Also, Websurfx would not have been possible without alamin655 and xffxff early involvement.

Thanks 💖 to all the people involved in the project

Now, let's dive straight into what this release version actually means.

What does this release version means

This new release version v1.15.0 introduces the new ranking algorithm for search results on the search page which ranks the results based on the relevancy to the user's search query.

Changelog

The changelog of all the changes can be found here:

Preview of the goals for the next major release

• Different levels of privacy to choose from with the help of rust's conditional compiling features (In progress).
• Even more engines will be supported.
• Categories would be added to search results like images, news, etc.
• More themes will be provided by default
• More animations for the websurfx frontend will be supported.
• Multi language support would be added.
• I2p and tor support will be provided.
• Reduce animations would be added for those who don't want animations and effects on the frontend.
• And lots more ✨.

DDoS secrets responsible for hosting leaks such as EpikFail and BlueLeaks will stop its activities, I would like help from anyone who has space left so we can download everything and keep seeding.

I'm trying to get my group to play games with mumble instead of discord.

I see lot of interest and ease of installation around matrix and jitsi, however mumble seems not talked about much.

I am looking for a guide of sort to setup mumble the easy way, i don't want to get new domain and vps and i don't want to open ports in my home router.

I've tailscale/headscale running off site with tunnel to home And i also have matrix server running with traefik.

If anyone have experience in the similar scenario i would like to know

This is way above my head but I figured people here would find this interesting

I'm looking into archiving websites/bookmarks.

There are the obvious ones listed on https://github.com/awesome-selfhosted/awesome-selfhosted . I'm going through all of them.

Any advice for a beginner in this topic? I already bookmarked every useful website I visited in the past year. This has also given me my personal search engine. Only open tabs and bookmarks are shown as a search recommendation in my browser.

I want to monthly rent a VPS in the very near future to host a website, a Peertube instance and an email server as minimum. But despite having used Linux as a home operative system for 3 years, I pretty much known nothing to properly secure online services.

So I want to first have a "dummy" cloud system where I can mess around with configurations and everything without risking losing money while I am still learning.

While typing this it crossed my mind I could also create a virtual network in Virtualbox, at least when I used it on Windows years ago it allowed you to do it. Could this also work? To create two virtual machines under the same network with one acting as server and one as client?

You know BOINC, the thing where you can donate your processing power to specific computational projects?
Is there anything like that, but for hosting platforms / services?
Something where you could say "I am willing to dedicate this much of my CPU, RAM and storage space to this project or this group of people".
Say that I have a server that is more or less collecting dust, and I want to make it do something productive.
I am aware of YUNOHost and alternatives, but that still requires me to choose which things to deploy and also somehow then offer that to the community.
As a certified lazy dude, I would much rather say "here's the computer, use it for whatever you need the most".
The issue I see with this is that my goodwill could be abused for hosting something inappropriate or even illegal, and then I would be held responsible. So there should be some transparency requirement or some other mechanism that helps prevents this.

And yes, self-hosting would not be the accurate term to describe this kind of distributed resource sharing. "croud-sourced self-hosting"? "crowd-hosting" sounds like a good description for this phenomenon.
Some implementation of this probably already exists. Please provide any relevant names or links that would help me find more about this.

I want to set up my own Matrix server, but it seems a bit complicated in the proxy and federation part since I'm not using Nginx or Caddy. Does anyone have an up-to-date guide for Traefik version?

I'm trying to install Proxmox on a server that is going to be running Home Assistant, a security camera NVR setup and other sensitive data, I need to have the drives be encrypted with automatic decryption of drives so the VMs can automatically resume after a power failure.

My desired setup:

• 2 Sata SSDs boot drives in a ZFS mirror
• 1 NVME SSD for L2ARC and VM storage
• 3 HDDs in a RAIDz1 for backups and general large storage
• 1 (maybe more added later) HDD for Camera NVR VM.

I'd prefer every drive encrypted with native ZFS encryption automatically decrypted by either TPM 2.0 or manually by a passphrase if needed as a backup.

Guide I found:

I found a general guide on how to do something similar but it honestly went over my head (I'm still learning) and didn't include much information about additional drives: Proxmox with Secure Boot and Native ZFS Encryption

If someone could adapt that post into a more noob friendly guide for the latest Proxmox version, with directions for decryption of multiple drives, that would be amazing and I'm sure it would make an excellent addition to the Proxmox wiki ;)

My 2nd preferred setup:

• 2 Sata SSDs boot drives in a ZFS mirror with LUKS encryption and automatic decryption with clevis.
• All other drives encrypted using ZFS native encryption with ZFS key (keys?) stored on LUKS boot drive partition.

With this arrangement, every drive could be encrypted at rest and decrypted on boot with native ZFS encryption on most drives but has the downsides of using LUKS on ZFS for the boot drives.

Is storing the ZFS keys in a LUKS partition insecure in some way? Would this result in undecryptable drives if something happened to ZFS keys on the boot drive or can they be also decrypted with a passphrase as a backup?

As it stands right now, I'm really stuck trying to figure this out so any help or well written guides are heavily appreciated. Thanks for reading!

Hi there!

I‘m running a somewhat developed home server setup and add more services every month.

But this thing eludes me:

I have 2 IP cameras for my pet room (I have a couple bearded dragons in terrariums).

The cameras are fenton 351.150

I can stream many different formats to home assistant or the browser. I also tried multiple apps like viseron (which is pretty cool) and agentdvr from ispy (which always makes the hair on my neck stand up since it looks like it was cobbled together).

But what doesnt work is controlling the camera, mostly. I believe agentdvr could do that but I‘m really unhappy about that app. Also, it pushes monetization very hard albeit seeming to be open source.

I also found this: https://medevel.com/10-cctv-open-source-solutions/

Does anyone have experience with a non-jank and non-pushy cctv solution that lets me control the cameras instead of just streaming?

Have a good one!

Obviously, the closer to AGPL, the better, in my opinion. But I'll run some MIT, if the product is sufficiently better, for my use case, than the alternative. For example, I want a multilibrary photo album. Photoprism (AGPL) doesn't offer it, but Immich (MIT) does. As soon as Photoprism has that functionality, I'll switch back simply for the license.

My hard line is open source. I don't use any proprietary solutions.

I've seen that searxng has been recommended here, and after trying it out I was so impressed that I spun up a docker container on my Unraid box. Opensearch works fine with public instances, but I can't get it to work with my container. I'm using the official docker image. Is there something I should watch out for?

I set the instance name, and passed environment variables with SEARXNG_URL and SEARXNG_BIND_ADDRESS.

I assume many of you host a DMS such as Paperless and use it to organise the dead trees you still receive in the snail mail for some reason in the year of the lord 2023.

How do you encode your scans? JPEG is pretty meh for text even at better quantisation levels ("dirty" artefacts everywhere) and PNGs are quite large. More modern formats don't go into a PDF, which means multiple pages aren't possible (at least not in Paperless).
