What’s happening on your servers? Any interesting news things you tried?

I didn’t do anyone other than updating Mastodon (native deployment) lately due to a lack of time. Reading so much about Immich caused me to consider trying it in parallel to Nextcloud but I’m not sure if I want to have everything twice.

Not quite homelab, but I’m about to install Linux Mint on my mom’s laptop and that had me thinking about creating an off-site backup in her place again since she has a fiber connection. I’m still not sure about the potential design though, but currently my only backup is in the same rack as the live stuff.

    almost done re setting everything up after a catastrophic failure (ended up replacing multiple drives, the CPU, the motherboard, the psu, and the ram).

    now I’m just running long command after long command, waiting for drives to zero, ensuring extended smart checks pass on new drives, cloning to my backup drives…

    this things been down for a few weeks and I’m so excited to have it back up soon!

    anyways, moral of the story is, the 3-2-1 strategy is a good strategy for a lot of reasons. just do it, it may save your ass down the line.
