seems like a fire hazard no?

is this a public server? would you be at risk of DDoS attacks?

I’d say switch vps providers, one with proper DDoS protection.

blocking regions can help but once the pipe is full there’s nothing much you can do from your side.

It all just depends on how much you trust the app, and how you’ve set up things when it does go wrong. Not every container needs to be able to access other containers on the system, lan, have access to whatever folder, read/write permissions, etc

A good practice for things like vaultwarden would be to only whitelist the country/state you’re in to minimize your attack profile

fail2ban or crowdsec can also help with all the rats sniffing around

alternative (superior) open source extension: https://github.com/cavi-au/Consent-O-Matic

afaik, because of the current lack of good moderation tools it would be hard to keep the community to their standard with the huge amount of new lemmiers

afaik, they defederated from us. So we can still see posts and comments from there, but cant add any posts or comment.

You dont have to allocate the GPU to the container, if you do, you cant use it anywhere else. I’m running Jellyfin on Truenas scale and i’m passing the following enviroment variables for nvidia gpu transcoding. RUNTIME = nvidia NVIDIA_DRIVER_CAPABILITIES = all NVIDIA_VISIBLE_DEVICES = all

should be the same for plex.

I don’t think it officially supports it but it does work! Lemmy.world is currently running on multiple containers load balanced by nginx. look at u/ruud latest post about it

encrypted Rsync to a free Backblaze account. be sure to test your backups tho

how are you doing your backups now? are you using the 3-2-1 backup strategy?

I don’t think it has enough ram for even 1 of those applications (except pihole), not to mention it’ll be hard setting up an external drive on it.

best get some kind of 2nd hand thin client, it’ll be much much better.

depends on which synology model. any intel cpu thats like 8000> generation has very good transcoding support.

The easiest would be a Synology Nas, but make sure it has transcoding capabilities otherwise its such a headache if the device you’re playing the video on doesnt support the codec.

otherwise i’d just try and see for a 2nd hand thin client which will be way more powerful than a synology and sweet sweet intel quicksync.

Also look into Jellyfin instead of Plex :)
