I found what appears to be the Bible of self-hosting: a complete zero to one guide on getting started from spinning up your own router to hosting your own services that replace popular cloud products like Google Photos, office suites, etc. Written by Louis Rossmann, a right to repair activist and very entertaining YouTuber. https://wiki.futo.org/index.php/Introduction_to_a_Self_Managed_Life:_a_13_hour_%26_28_minute_presentation_by_FUTO_software It also comes in the form of two videos totaling in 13.5 hours of content https://youtu.be/Et5PPMYuOc8?si=lDzzR5oZi_8bJM0r He seems to have a company futo.org dedicated to this movement and I'm super happy to see these kind of resources out there!!

I’m 3 for 3 with needing RMAs for my Unifi router. Feels like I need to have a fully standing backup system ready to swap. Kinda absurd.

if anyone is using the Everything Presence One/Lite sensors, there's a new visual zone configurator that can be deployed as a docker container or a home assistant add-on. i just PR'd a critical fix that prevents the whole thing from working when the entity ID does not end in a specific string. https://github.com/EverythingSmartHome/everything-presence-addons/pull/16

Look mah', no Comcast -- first holiday season with fiber! Going to be traveling to see family, but finally able to stream high-def content from my homelab to anywhere in the world via WireGuard on OPNsense. Coming from 8Mbps, still feel like a kid in a candy shop 😅

Finally carved out some time to sort out my home audio system. I have: Five zones powered off cheap class t amps, each with an old airport Express as the source input. Airplay2 compatible for Spotify, YouTube from mobile. A raspberry pi runs a couple of background utilities: - Owntone to serve radio streams to the AirPlay speakers. Preferred this method so radio wasn’t tied to a mobile device. - Icecast2/Darkice to stream analog audio sources (vinyl) to local network so it can be picked up by Owntone (not a hifi solution for vinyl but works for me) - Owntone is currently controlled via API on our mobiles, but future plan is to put a few physical buttons around to switch between streams.
