I think someone else already mentioned it, but just to reiterate… Anything for other people who aren’t my wife and future kids.

Password manager, file backups, photo backup, whatever.

If something happens to me, or I pass away, wifey has instructions on shutting everything down (probably should write instructions on how to save all the important stuff).

But I don’t want to deal with other peoples stuff. I like tinkering with my server and different docker containers, etc. So I don’t want someone complaining they can’t access their photos because I wanted to try something new. Also, just don’t wanna be responsible for storing their photos and important documents.


Self-hosted Password Manager Recommendation?
Hi y'all! Sorry for asking so much on this sub! Y'all have been so helpful! This time, I'm thinking of transitioning from 1Password to a self-hosted option. Of course I know about Bitwarden, and I'm looking into it now, but are there any other recommendations y'all have? Have y'all heard of and used Passbolt? It seems nice, but it looks like it only does passwords and not other categories like 1Password does. A few things of note: I'd like it to have different categories, a la 1Password. (Logins, SSN, ID, member card #, etc) Maybe multi-user so I can have an account for my wife. Password generator of course, and I'm not sure if y'all are familiar too much with 1password, but it allows you to customize the fields in each entry. So it starts with the basics (username, password, url), but it allows you to add sections and entries too! I could add a "security" and add my 2FA code on there, my backup codes, etc. Honestly, that last one is a biggie, so I think I might be talking myself out of moving over now, but I'm sure that AgileBits or whatever the company is called will abandon, if it hasn't already, 1Password 7 with local vaults, in favor of 1Password 8 that only uses 1password subscription accounts. Sorry for the rant and wall of text. Thank y'all in advance. # **Update on July 21, 2023** I decided to self-host Vaultwarden as it was designed to be a lightweight (on resources) version of Bitwarden. For Android, I'm using the "Keyguard" app to access my instance, and the official Bitwarden browser extension on my wife's MacBook. 1password fucked me over, and I had to manually copy every password 1 by 1, luckily I only had ~500 entries. I'm still doing some research into the best app for android (the official Bitwarden is ugly, and Keyguard is pretty, but I'm still looking around.) Thank each and every one of you for taking time to answer my question!

Help with backup solution
So, this is a rather odd request of a backup solution, but it's kinda what I want right now. I'm still relatively new to Linux and self-hosting in general A few years ago, my cousin and I were hosting our own Minecraft server. It had a mod that would create backups of the world folder. It zipped it up, named it "yyyy-mm-dd.zip" and placed it in a backups folder somewhere on the server. The most important feature that I want is actually the next part. It would allow us to specify how many backups we wanted to keep, and also how frequent we wanted the backup to run. We set it to backup daily, and keep 14 days of backups. After that, it would delete the oldest one, and make a new backup. I would like to replicate that functionality! Specify the frequency, but ALSO how many backups to keep. Idk if it's asking too much. I've tried doing some research, but I'm not sure where to start. Ideally I'd like something I can host on docker. Maybe connect to a Google account or something so it can be off-site. I only want to use it for docker config files, compose files, container folders, etc. I've looked into restic, but it seems it encrypts the backups, and you NEED a working copy of restic to restore? I'd like something simple like a .zip file instead or something, to be able to just download, unzip, and spin up the compose file and stuff. Sorry for the wall of text, thanks in advance if you have any suggestions! P.S. I'm pretty sure the upload to Google or some other service would have to be a separate program, so I'm looking into that as well. Update: I want to thank everyone for your wonderful suggestions. As of right now, I have settled on a docker container of Duplicati, backed up to my Mega.nz account. Last I checked they lowered the storage limit, but I was lucky to snag an account when they were offing 50GB free when you joined, so it's working out well so far. I did have to abandon my original idea, and decided to look for something with deduplication (now that I know what it is!) And encryption.

selfhosted leaderboard
Hi all! Loving the new community on Lemmy. It grew to 18k FAST holy crap. I was wondering if there was a simple self-hostable leaderboard available? Nothing crazy like able to add a new row on the webpage, auto-sort to the top score is at the top, etc. To help with context, a group of friends and I are playing DnD, and just recently we started dkeeping track of and playing a new meta game and keeping score. - Fastest player gets knocked to 0hp. - Fastest player death - most damage per turn - most damage per attack Etc and stuff like that. It'd be awesome if there was a self-hosted way to do this so all players can see quickly on a webpage instead of opening a shared spreadsheet. Any ideas? Google is just showing me links to others asking the same question on Reddit.

Awesome. Thank you so much for your help!

I gotta figure out how to check CPU usage on a headless Linux environment lol.


So I just tried a torrent from nyaa.si that had hundreds of seeders and hundreds of leechers.

After it finished downloading, the upload speed has fluctuated from 900kb/s up to ~1.52mb/s. Way better than before, but still feels slower than it should? Idk.

At this point, I’m not sure of anything! Haha

I’m doing so much reading from different sources, I’m starting to get everything mixed up now.

Checking the wiki for Gluetun, I used that exact docker compose that they suggested, but added the port for qBittorrenr, so I can access the webUI. (And also now added the “port forward” variable)

I’m very lost right now, and unless you’re willing to walk me through it, I think imma start from scratch and hopefully learn something new along the way.

Thanks so much for helping me so much!


I’ll go ahead and give this a try when I’m off work. Thank you so much for your help!


I added the VPN_PLRT_FORWARD command on the Gluetun container. It gave me a port. I added that to qbit, and it seemed to work! I’m now wondering why the speeds are so slow though? My download is at upwards of 15MB/s, but the uploads are in the KBs and Bs. I know other people leeching affect the speed, but I figured it has to be faster than that right? Do you think I did something wrong?

I’m going to try with a Linux distro to see if it’s my set up, or just the torrent themselves.


help with seeding on qBittorrent and Gluetun?
So, I've recently started torrenting more, but I wanted to be safe about it, or a safe as can be. I already have a PIA subscription from like 3 years ago on a Christmas sale. I would like to continue using Docker, as I have been. I know there are docker images of qBittorrent with VPN included, but I have PIA set up with the "Gluetun" docker image, so that if I wanted to, I could run other containers through it rather easily. So, I'm using PIA with Gluetun image, and the standard qBittorrent image that is being funneled through Gluetun. I'm using Portainer and Portainer Stacks to manage my docker environment. I'm also using a PIA server in CA Vancouver, as far as I can tell, that server allows port forwarding as well as seeding. My problem is I can't seem to seed anything. Can any of y'all help me get properly set up for seeding as well as torrenting? If you need any more info or screenshots, let me know! Also, I am actively looking and researching to try to fix it, but work is a pain right now. I'll update if I manage to figure it out. Thank you in advance!
