I also like local only with a similar set up as yours, rsync to and HDD and to an SSD.
But I also would recommend you to follow that suggestion, you need to have an external backup managed by someone else (encrypted, of course) so you can have options if anything happens to everything in your local.
It’s up to you how much you’re willing to pay to be sure to be able to retrieve your data.

I’m using iDrive e2, it says it has a limited offer, but it’s been there for over a year.

Im basically paying $1.25 for 2TB per month (it’s charged at once for 24 months) https://www.idrive.com/s3-storage-e2/pricing

Found that also myself trying to do the same thing haha. I did the same process as OP, gparted took 2.5 hours in my 1TB HDD to create a new partition, then copying the data from old to new partition was painfully slow, so I went to copy it to another dive and into the new partition.
Afterwards I deleted the old partition and grew the new one, which took a bit more than 1.5 hours.

If I had the space I would have copied all the data out of the drive, formatted it and then copied back into. It would have been quicker.

Bots on Lemmy are allowed, that’s why the API exists.
Bots on programming.dev seems are not allowed since all endpoints require to pass CF.

Glad to see you solved the issue, I just want to point out that this might happen again if you forget your db is in a volume controlled by docker, better to put it in a folder you know.

Last month immich released an update to the compose file for this, you need to manually change some part.
Here’s the post in this community https://lemmy.ml/post/14671585

Also I’ll include you this link in the same post, I moved the data from the docker volume to my specific one without issue.

Or maybe another option is to make backups of the db. I saw this project some time ago, haven’t implemented it on my services, but it looks interesting.

how do I do a fresh install of an older app version on a new device?

You can directly use the files from the github repo, just look for the release your server is on and install that apk.

You can use GPSLogger to record it in local or send it to whatever service you want.
If you’re into selfhosting you can use traccar which is focused into fleet management so it’s easy to get reports on the trips made.

As for your second point, I wouldn’t trust the GPS for this, it can say you weren’t moving since it only checks every so often to record the data, or maybe it says you actually were speeding because the two points it used to calculate the data weren’t the actual points you were at that time.
A dashcam would be better suited for this. I’m not sure how they work, but most probably they can be connected to read data from your car which would be more trust worthy to whoever might decide if you were actually speeding.

I’d say yes for the first part, no to the second.

And expert or someone knowledgeable may not have the time to invest in a community. A mod is a volunteer who helps ensure rules are followed and we can have a place to discuss about a topic.

But a mod insulting the community is a different problem. It’s doing something which they should be helping mitigate.

I don’t like the idea of security by obscurity, seems like a lazy way of trying to protect a resource.

You can host your own instance to share your opinions.
Still don’t expect other instances for allowing content they don’t want to be federated with, so you might have where to say something but it might not reach everyone.

What do you mean?
The frontend yeah, but seems the S3 objects would still need to be public.

I resorted to buy a new one with android tv, so now I just have tailscale installed in it and can directly play jellyfin.

The issue is the chromecast can’t resolve back to the tailnet with subrouting. Probably connecting the chromecast to a network which resolves the connections for it could work, but I don’t know how to do that or if it’s actually possible.

Windows: you’re going to use wsl, right?

The actions are amazing, and I was also able to integrate them with tailscale so I can build and deploy everything within my network automatically.
I run it in a vps with 1cpu and 2gb ram along several other services.

The last time I checked postgres gets big becouse of a log activity table used for deduplication, it stores the data of 6 months. The devs mentioned you could be deleting it up to some point (IIRC they said 3 months, but confirm first).

As for pictrs, lemmy caches a lot of stuff, so it copies a lot of data from other instances even when it’s advertised only media from your instance is stored in your server.
My solution was to disable pictrs since I don’t upload media.
Other solutions I’ve heard about are to ask users of your instance to upload media to any other media hosting service, the images uploaded to lemmy are just seen as urls, so it wouldn’t be any different.

I’ve been thinking on pre-processing my library to be able to serve it on a low level device, have you thought about that option?
In my case since I know what content I’ll be watching the most in what devices and have the space to duplicate it (since I don’t want to lose the original files)

I’m using PiHole with my tailscale to use their MagicDNS.
This shares the PiHole among all the devices connected to the tailnet, and in the PiHole you can configure your local DNS to point your domains to your tailIP.
My setup has several services in a single machine, so there’s also the issue of ports, for that I use caddy as a reverse proxy, which also allows me to have HTTPS only configuring the key to my registrar for the DNS challenge

there’s also Aegis and 2FAS, but I have no idea about WebDAV servers and also don’t want to rely on Google Drive for backup, also because I’m moving away from Google services.

If your only issue are the backups, then you can still use aegis with automatic encrypted backup to a folder in your device and then use syncthing to automatically send it to your machine. From there use any other backup solution like duplicati or restic.
(Remember that syncthing is not a backup solution, it should only be used as a way to automatically sync files between devices) (People have had many issues with duplicate, but I’ve only seen posts about huge amounts of data, for something like aegis backups has been working fine for me)

I’d also recommend you asking in !selfhosted@lemmy.world

The only issue I’ve had is with games from kakao, they crash after a few minutes of starting. I think the last time I tried it said something abiut modification to the OS. But that’s the only developer I’ve had problems with, the rest of the games I have play without issue.

Also the only downside I see is the tap to pay not working at all, but that’s not graphenOS’ problem, google won’t certificate them.

I’ve been using traccar. It’s more like a service for fleet management, but as a selfhosted alternative is as best as I was able to find.

Here’s one I’ve been playing with https://github.com/jhj0517/Whisper-WebUI
The small model of fast Whisper has been amazing for the 3 options it gives (files, YT, or recording), tho I have in mind the limitations and I’ve only used it with somewhat clear audio.
