    Id say rip blurays on your main PC/laptop and build low power device for server.

    Streaming musing and sharing photos is not intensive task, but streaming 4k video is another storry. Unless you need 4k streaming you should be fine with almost any intel cpu that supports quicksync and with no gpu afaik. I googled that Lenovo and it seems like it has Xeon E3-1226 v3 which does support quick sync, so I bet it will run just fine. My celeron g3930 can transcode 1080p



  • Agree! I had arr stack + nextcloud on rpi4 4GB and it was using bit less than 3GB after restart, but after some time it would hit 4GB and start using SWAP and I would have issue just like OP. Solved that by moving server to DIY PC with 8 GB, but then I added many more services and had to upgrade to 16 GB. Sitting at 4+GB free RAM all the time while using 40+ services



  • Let’s Encrypt certs for my self hosted servers to include VaultWarden (which will not work with self-signed or http) as well as have easy urls for myself and family to use.

    Im not expert, but Im using VaultWarden with self signed certs. Note that I didnt open it to public and I didnt buy a domain. I just made up a domain name and Im using wireguard to get access (together with NPM and pihole)

    is there anything wrong with just running it in the background on a modern(ish) computer? My desktop is a 5900x with 64GB of RAM

    Nothing wrong, but there are some benefits of running dedicated hardware and stable server distro. Rpi or laptop will probably use way less electricity, but if your PC is running anyway than you actually save money by not using any extra hardware





  • Thank you! I use Debian 11, installed make, build-essential and golang, and still receiving the same message (feels like I should learn how to use these packages first).

    Using your file was working, but unfortunately gotify container just stops after some time. I was reading the docs and I must admit I don’t understand a tiny bit :D. Spinning gotify server in docker container was super easy tho. I’d like to get this working, but feels bad for taking your time mate, and I even stole the thread (Sorry OP) lol.
