Filecoin showed promise as a nearly free option. I used to be a storage provider. Met a lot of other storage providers at conventions. The people involved were pretty alright. I haven’t interacted with the community in a few years though. Biggest problem I saw back then was a lack of a user friendly means of storing and retrieval. That might have changed now.
Whatever option you pick please make sure you encrypt your data before you send it off.
What ISP are you referring to? I have genuinely never heard of an isp that takes 24 hours to rotate your IP. Also utilizing dynamicdns is not going to incur more dns traffic? Dynamic DNS updates your dns provider from a system on your local network that your pub ip has changed then your provider will start sending traffic to the new ip. Propagation used to take a while but I haven’t experienced propagation wait times of over 10 minutes in years. This all being said dynamic DNS isn’t exactly the most elegant solution. It is just one of the simplest that I mentioned. There are significantly better options overall that completely take the requirement of a static pubip completely out of the equation and can be built using all free open source tools relatively easily.
I mean I’ll be real. Sure in some circumstances that could be an annoyance for 15 seconds for some software that might rely on a session whenever your ip changes like once a month if that. A rotating ip is probably one of the easiest things to work around amongst the plethora of challenges that ISPs present for those who want to self host.
I mean just take a look at what is involved if you are in a situation where cg-nat is implemented. You legitimately have no control over the root of your network at that point. I have that issue in particular with what is essentially a mobile hotspot as my failover for when my fiber fails. That being said I had to architect it in a way that took that took cg-nat into consideration. If I hadn’t then when fiber fails it would take down my services as a whole anyway.
My point is that those challenges have workarounds, you can solve those issues relatively easily and they even present a level of security. Where it is actively malicious is with restrictions to capacity such as upload limits in which they to a degree lie about their speeds and capacity. The terms of service stuff is just flat out awful too.
If you have control over at least the root of your network you can totally get away with hosting in a dynamic pub ip. You just need to set up dynamicdns. There are other ways of handling this specific issue too. You can always go to a colocation and set up a server there if you want. You could also create your own reverse proxy tunnel in a place that is public then forward it. There are lots of work arounds really. Yeah, it sucks that American ISPs generally don’t support ipv6 but there are totally ways to work around it all.
What really gets me up in arms is when they advertise gigabit connections or 500mb speeds only to limit upload to 20mb/s. That is where they are actively inhibiting self hosting communities.
Very much sounds like the whole thing was vibe coded.
Personally I did something similar here. You could likely find a rack for free if you look at to colos, data centers or schools. I got a 60u full enclosed rack from the colo I kept my servers at. The big problem was space. People look to get rid of them because they are such a burden in space.
Good stuff getting a gen9. I got a gen8 before I realized that there were firmware limitations particularly with a lack of support for gpt. I instead needed a really hacky workaround with mbr in order to run my name ssd as the boot drive at full capacity.
Also I like to drop this tool occasionally for any new homelabbers.
Ipfs is a really cool useful project.
Filecoin is cool for super cheap longterm cold archives
Helium is well. I have mixed feelings about it.
Akashnet is a cool decentralized marketplace for docker container deployments.
There are a few peer to peer decentralized vpn things here and there.
There are tons of projects that are cool in concept but I really have to say you are more likely than not to lose money if you speculate on any tokens attached to the projects.
Basically it was a follow-up to the biggest diss track drop of our generation. There were a insane amount of drops during the performance to people who have been following the Kendrick x Drake beef as well as Kendricks follow though as a performer. Lots of political commentary and visual representations of the current climate as well as references to his previous works.
Basically if you have been following the modern music industry for the past year or so then it was insane.
If haven’t followed it then it was probably at least relatively entertaining as a side show if not then a bit confusing.
Ahh. Ocean beach. Absolutely beautiful.
Mentioning the hands. The one at the bottom left is just holding a phone and 100% nobody’s in this photo. Also kinda rude by they gave the random lady in the middle the shadow mustache.
Taildrop works relatively well for most all circumstances. Only thing is you gotta use trayscale or cli currently for sending files from a Linux/bsd machine. I don’t know if opened has a port for trayscale but it definitely has a port of tailscale.
Networking is fun because there are literally infinite potential options. There really isn’t a best option. It’s just what do you prefer. In my case I like to write a docker compose and write a tailscale container into it. I then set the service I want to expose either to my own tailnet or to the internet through funnel or though this other implementation I came up with a while back that I still need to do a write up on. Either way here is a guide i wrote with some docs as reference on my forgejo (git alternative). Docs are kinda a mess but hopefully it makes sense enough to help you out.
Yeah, this is kind of everything that most fedi communities I know about do not want.
Cool that you built a thing and all and maybe there is a use for it but I’m gonna have to respectfully downvote.
That would be interesting. If this is going where I think it is then it would probably suck seeing as touch screen input feels exponentially worse with latency but nonetheless would be really cool to see work for hosting a web app of sorts for desktop use.
Check out linuxserver.io, kasm and whatever the x11 version of waydroid is called. I can’t remember it at the moment. That should give you enough to get started building a container if you want.
This is dope! I wish there was a proper community that did tests like this in mass using open source standardized methods/hardware.
Ahhh. The vypyr… I love everything about that stupid amp series.
Aaaaand
Pop goes the AI bubble.
Last stages of capitalism for tech is usually in the form of an ipo of some sort which is what this will lead to.
There will be other cool shit obviously with integrations and tools that will hopefully trickle down to open source models but the writing is on the wall. This is a cash out and enshittify move.
The best news out of it is we will start to see less and less “our company is Ai and we shoved Ai into said thing” as the companies late to the game will continue to shoot their shot until OpenAI has completely dominated the market and investors stop caring.
I’d suggest learning what docker is and how to use it if you are trying to host it which is “installing” a web page.
If you want an icon to go to a dedicated window (web app experience) there are lots of options with lots of advantages and disadvantages. Just research progressive web apps. This method is going to require the frontend be hosted so you either need an instance that is using this frontend or you need to host it yourself.
Also to let you know. You’re getting downvotes because this is a very lazily asked question. You didn’t link to what it is you need help with, you asked the question in a manner that suggests you have done no research.
No hate since everyone is a beginner but I really suggest you spend a little more time crafting your questions to the community. Also read a little on docker and how lemmy front ends work.
In the meantime this should help you get started.
Afterwards go to the git repo of this ”app” pages source code. There is a one command solution to deploy it.
As long as docker is installed and set up you should just be able to enter the command for the deployment to get it running.
Go to http://localhost:8080 or if that doesn’t work https://localhost:8080 in your browser as indicated by the command and there is your front end.
I’m so sick of hearing that odysee is only a nazi crypto scam. That content exists on every platform but by shitting all over every option that comes out and then whining when YouTube does more anti user crap is just ridiculous.
You don’t need to just use odysee. You can use YouTube for your recommendations then be redirected for the content. Eventually when recommendations are there it will be an easy transition for the majority of people but until then, at the very least don’t step on the face of a working competitor that has good intentions.
P.s. You don’t need to use the token, it was mostly just given to viewers and creators for free.
The picture I saw of it looks 100% like the standard practice of rebranding a terrible iPhone-like android device that could only be manufactured in China. Just take a look at “luxury” phones of the early 2020s. Absolutely 100% a scam by idiots for idiots.
