nginx-proxy becomes almost a must have if you have multiple services and prefer remembering domain names instead of port numbers https://github.com/nginx-proxy/nginx-proxy
That doesn't sound like a bad idea, but it's just as easy to create a bunch of LXC containers with their own MAC address and IP for me (and thus own hostname per service).

#272Seems the theme going into the new year might just be self hosting things... This and this https://github.com/siyuan-note/siyuan are both on the front page of HN

Note that it is a $12.49 subscription, or $829.99 one-time. So you really need to love its featureset.
That's some serious price. If you're a professional music maker and need top-of-the-line audio production software, Ableton 12 Suite is ~600 EUR, and that's for making music, not consuming.
Price in one has no bearing on price in the other.

The audiophile market often seems to work like this. Insanely overpriced for marginal or nonexistent gains in quality.

People are fed up with subscriptions and things like minipcs and docker have made this all very accessible
I agree! I just don’t know if this would pass the wife test. All of our music and photos and videos tc etc being hosted by me where I could potentially lose everything.
All the work needed to properly store enough backups and test upgrades and maintain things I just figure the tens of dollars I spend monthly to host this stuff for me in iCloud and other places is worth it.

#279I have tried every music playing option under the sun for the last 15 years and am now happily back to creating playlists on my computer and periodically dragging them to my phone's local storage. There is still no better overall experience.
This approach requires way lot more space (even if I pull videos in 1024x768, which is my car multimedia system resolution). For now it's just a plenty of SD cards, will see how it is going to change.
Re: Blackcandy: Self hosted music streaming server
#280I'm probably missing something. Why self-host when for $10/mo. you can access a nearly unlimited catalog of music on Spotify with integration on phone, PC, car, Sonos, etc?
Because: * You don't have any control, if some paperwork fucks up you can lose access (rarer with music but very common with video services) * They don't have a lot of rare stuff, demos, EPs, singles, dubplates, etc. * You can't choose which version of an album you want. * If you run out of money for whatever reason you can't listen to music. * Offline is unreliable. * Screw having my taste and discovery defined by a…
Dumped spotify and couldn't been happier.
