Can confirm, this is my setup and it works great.

Bitwarden with self-hosted Vaultwarden is great!

I am a sysadmin with over 30 years of experience managing servers and networks for businesses of all sizes as well as for myself, friends, and family.

The FUTO guide is extremely detailed, accurate, and accessible. It does not always follow best practices, and it’s not a comprehensive guide to all of the possibilities for self-hosting. It’s not trying to be. It is a guide for someone with no technical expertise (but with basic technical ability) to degoogle/deapple themselves at a reasonable level of cost and effort.

You do not have to do everything in the list, you can pick and choose the parts you’re interested in. That said, I would recommend reading through the whole article as you have time, because it does a very good job of explaining the concepts involved in building a self-hosted setup, and understanding how everything works is the biggest step toward being able to effectively troubleshoot problems when they inevitably crop up.

If you have specific questions about things that aren’t answered in the guide or via a quick web search, post them here.

Thank you for the detailed write up. I’m going to give this a shot and see if I can save myself some space.

I’ve got TrueNAS running on a reasonably recent PC but not a ton of space on the drives. I’d love to transcode the handful of 8GB+ movies and 40GB+ seasons sitting around taking up space. How complicated was it to set up tdarr and how long does it usually take to transcode?

I wouldn’t recommend running docker/podman in LXC, but that’s just because it seems to run better as a full VM in my experience.

No sense running it in the hypervisor, agreed.

LXC is great for everything else.

It’s not worth the headache IMO. Just run a docker VM and use lxc for the one-off systems that you want to experiment with.

I have a “production” docker VM and a “sandbox” docker VM and prod only ever runs compose files that I’ve vetted in sandbox. Super stable, basically bulletproof, and still has the flexibility to experiment and break stuff without affecting my core services.

Turns out the old gag “You can’t get there from here; You have to go somewhere else and start” is actually true for btrfs’s RAID support.

Bro The RAID Fuckin’ Sucks

ZFS for “RAID” is fine. Btrfs for a single disk (or on top of mdraid or hardware raid) is also fine.

In my experience, Pulumi can best be described as a waste of time.

Crocoslut really started going downhill after the license change and conversion to nodejs in v9.

I can attest to projectivy and smarttube, they are great. I went with the internet’s recommendation on the $20 Walmart/onn Google tv 4k box, with projectivy as the launcher instead of the default.

My only gripe so far is that the remote doesn’t seem to consistently turn the box on, I have to go unplug the box every so often to reset it. probably some misconfiguration that’s making it not wake from sleep correctly.

Despite that issue, 10/10 experience: ad free YouTube, fast jellyfin in 4k, fully customizable ui…

No. Symlinks and hardlinks are two approaches to creating a “pointer to a file.” They are quite different in implementation, but at the high level:

• Symlinks can point to other filesystems, hardlinks only work on the same filesystem.
• You can delete the target of a symlink (or even create one that points at nothing), but a hardlink always points to a real file.

In both cases, the only additional data used is the metadata used for the link itself. The contents of the file on disk are not copied.

I don’t necessarily agree with it, but there’s the third option of just disabling SELinux and removing the frustration entirely.
