What’s up, selfhosters? After accidently posting this in !solarpunk@slrpnk.net last week, here’s a new try. I usually post these in !selfhosted@lemmy.world but want to spread a bit to not concentrate on the mega instance too much.

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. Maybe even solarpunk related? In the last thread, someone posted their bird-listening setup, which sounded super cool.

I set up Pinepods recently, which is a selfhosted podcast player with web interface and device sync. I’ve been looking for a selfhosted pocket casts for years and was super excited to see Pinepods becoming a thing and am enjoying it since setting it up. The dev has also been asking for beta testers for mobile apps recently.

    Got fed up with of plex/jellyfin, so making my own thing that’s mostly a small browser based interface glueing together VLC and Qbittorrent.

    It runs on a nuc connected to a large screen. I open up the application in my phone’s browser, and it shows just a search bar. I enter a query and it searches imdb. After opening a specific title it searches local hard drive to see if it’s available. If not it uses qbittorrent and their local api to download it. Once it’s available, it’s one click to send the file to VLC for playback.
