It’s Sunday somewhere already so why wait?

Let us know what you set up lately, what kind of problems you currently think about or are running into, what new device you added to your homelab or what interesting service or article you found.

I’ll post my ongoing things later/tomorrow but I didn’t want to forget the post again.

    I’ve been slowly, but steadily, migrating the services I run on my TrueNAS CORE (FreeBSD) from Jails to Debian VMs so I can migrate to TrueNAS 25 (no more SCALE it seems, and Linux) around April without many hurdles, hopefully.

    Besides having to learn some systemd, it has been a smooth ride.

    Now I’m down to the last 2 services, which I think are the most complicated setups I have and with no nice deb packages to ease installation: Paperless-ngx and Photoprism.

    I’ll probably look into playing with Containers (LXC/Incus) to have the same lightweight and efficiency as Jails once the migration to Linux is done. But honestly, if everything is running nicely, I won’t be very motivated to do so, let’s see.

      Isn’t one of the main benefits of scale(/25?) that you can run docker containers? Makes paperless pretty easy

        Yes it is!

        Although I can’t migrate from CORE and have the service migrated seamlessly unless I use VMs.

        And I don’t know docker containers, so it is something else I’d have to learn and understand. If I have to choose, I’d probably learn LXN/Incus instead.
