Do you have any articles discussing this? I’m interested to learn more as someone who doesn’t live there.

That’s definitely its focus, but if you want a very simple store it does support payments: https://ghost.org/help/ecommerce/

If you’re willing to accept JavaScript I’d recommend a Ghost setup. Pretty good platform once it’s set up and easy to selfhost. Not sure you’ll find a platform without JS for your use case tbh.

I use yarr as well but forked it to use postgres as the database instead of sqlite: https://github.com/jgkawell/yarr

We got one from Grain Wood and liked it so much we got a second. One we have is pine wrapped in a veneer of walnut and the other is painted white. They’re not hardwoods, but they’re leagues better than particle board IKEA stuff and don’t cost a fortune.

Haven’t used it yet, but Proton has a beta desktop app that might be what you’re looking for.

The solutions you’ve mentioned aren’t exactly equivalent. Proxmox is a hypervisor while Docker Swarm and Kubernetes are container orchestration engines. For example, I use Proxmox in a highly available cluster running on three physical nodes. Then I have various VMs and LXC containers running on those nodes. Some of those VMs are Kubernetes nodes running many Docker containers.

I highly recommend Proxmox as it makes it trivial to spin up new containers and VMs when you want to test something out. You can create and destroy VMs in an instant without messing with any of your actual hardware. That’s the power of a good hypervisor.

For orchestration, I would actually recommend you just stick with Docker Compose if you want something very simple to manage. Resiliency or high-availability usually brings with it a lot of overhead (both in system resources as well as maintenance costs) which may not be worth it to you. If you want something simple, Proxmox can run VMs in a highly-available mode so you could have three Proxmox nodes and set any VMs you deem essential to be highly-available within the cluster.

For my set up, I have certain services that are duplicated between multiple Proxmox nodes and then I use failover mechanisms like floating IP addresses to automatically switch things over when a node goes down. I also run most things in Kubernetes which is deployed in a highly-available manner across multiple Proxmox nodes so that I can lose a physical node and still keep (most) of my services running. This however is overkill for most things and I really only do it because I use my homelab to learn and practice different techniques.

I’ve been running Teleport for a while now and it’s been great. It can even manage access to things like Kubernetes clusters which is fantastic in my use case. I’ve been using their free community edition and no complaints so far.

Yeah I have AT&T and had to set up IP passthrough on their router/gateway box. Basically it makes it so the ISP provided router acts as if it isn’t there and my router gets to do whatever it wants.

Oh that’s cool. Didn’t know you could self-host the server. I’ll have to check that out.

I sync through OneDrive. I like that Joplin encrypts on-device so I don’t have to worry about the privacy policy of the cloud I’m syncing though.

I’ve used Joplin for a while and it’s solid.

Just jumping in to say I had the same thing. Deleted account and got that same email.
