dataprolet

I used to use Neo Launcher as an open source replacement for Nova Launcher. Unfortunately it's haunted by a terrible bug that regularly resets my home screen. Now I'm looking for a replacement. All I need is the ability to change the home screens grid size, the app icons (ideally also the names) and hide apps from the drawer. Any suggestions? EDIT: It should also be open source, obviously. EDIT #2: I've settled with Lawnchair and it looks quite promising so far!

I followed this tutorial to set up local domain names with SSL-certificates using DuckDNS: https://notthebe.ee/blog/easy-ssl-in-homelab-dns01/

I have three local domains for my Nginx Proxy Manager running on a VPS, for my self-hosted Nextcloud and my Proxmox-WebGUI both running on my local Homeserver. They follow the scheme service.dataprolet.duckdns.org.

Now I use Uptime-Kuma to monitor my services including the three domains and for some reason those three domains constantly time out after 48 seconds. I already set up the retries to 3, but to no avail.

I also use Pi-hole and Unbound and thought, that might be an issue, but testing my DNS using dig, mtr, traceroute, nslookup and host all returned normal values and no errors.

Does anybody have any idea what could cause this? I'm kind of clueless at this point. Thanks in advance!

EDIT: I don't get it.

1. I can't ping duckdns.org on my home server. I only get 100 % packet loss. I can open the website in my browser though. I also can't ping www.duckdns.org, which redirects to appservers-duckdns-prod-1630339571.ca-central-1.elb.amazonaws.com. Also gets 100 % packet loss.
2. I've added duckdns.org to my Uptime-Kuma and it got flagged as down because timeout of 48000ms exceeded but my other domains using DuckDNS were unaffected.
3. I added another local domain to Uptime-Kuma to see the differences of having ignoring SSL errors tuned on or off and the number of retries:

• Nextcloud
  • Ignore SSL error = false
  • Retries = 2
• Proxmox
  • Ignore SSL error = true
  • Retries = 1
• VPS
  • Ignore SSL error = false
  • Retries = 1
• Homepage
  • Ignore SSL error = true
  • Retries = 2

Throughout the day only the newly added Homepage got flagged as down for 5 times. The 3 others were up the whole time.

I'm looking for an alternative Youtube front-end for Linux Desktop but FreeTube for example doesn't support resolutions higher than 1080p. Is there an easy to use client, that supports 1440p and higher out-of-the-box?

Is there a way to easily create Gotify notifications from critical system errors (journalctl -p 3)? I recently had a bunch of out-of-memory errors and it would've been great to be notified about them. There must be a pre-build solution for this, right? Ideally also dockerized. Thanks in advance!

Does anybody know whether there is a WebGUI/Docker for Deezloader?

So this is bugging me for a while and I'm just do dumb to get how I solve this, but here's the situation:
Given I take a local backup of my system daily and have a retention policy that keeps a backup of the past 7 days each, a backup of the past 4 weeks each and a backup of the past 6 month each. That's either 17 backups or less if you consider some backups being counted as a daily and weekly or as a weekly and monthly. But that's not that important.
The interesting part is, that I also take a remote backup of my local backup daily, which has the same retention policy, so it's cascading. Here there is obviously a huge overlap of backups, but I can't wrap my head around, how I calculate this.
Is anybody willing and/or interested to solve this for and with me?

I'm looking for a simply solution to monitor all my servers and systems using a single dashboard. I want to see metrics like CPU usage, used RAM and storage to see if something is wrong.
I just set up Node-Exporter, Prometheus and Grafana but haven't found an existing dashboard that shows multiple hosts at once. Now I looked into Checkmk and Zabbix but I feel like both are a little overpowered for what I'm looking for. Do you have any recommendations?

I created this small script and thought it might be useful to someone else. Any feedback is welcome!

I noticed my home servers SSD running out of space and it ended up being my Jellyfin Docker container which wasn't clearing the directory for transcodes in /var/lib/jellyfin/transcodes correctly.

I simply created a new directory on my media hard drive and bind mounted the above mentioned directory to it. Now Jellyfin got over 1 TB of free space to theoretically clutter. To prevent this I simply created a cronjob to delete old files in case Jellyfin isn't.

@daily /usr/bin/find /path/to/transcodes -mtime +1 -delete

Easy!

I'm running Jellyfin in Docker in my home server for movies and shows. I recently added a music directory and apparently after that I'm getting almost hourly notifications from my Uptime-Kuma instance connected to Gotify that Jellyfin is down with status code 502. It's quickly up again, but I'm wondering what's causing this.
I have Nginx Proxy Manager configured for a local and a public domain pointing to my Jellyfin instance.
Any idea what could be causing this?
