    Random question but how much bandwidth does the invidious instances use a month? especially since you are basically the only working instance lately.

    Totally cool if you can't/dont want to answer of course

  • plumbergplumberg Veteran, Megathread Squad

    I built

    • a diabetes prediction model
    • wine quality prediction model

    Using ML/ AI (A part of MLZoomCamp) and deployed the docker container which hosts the flask based API seamlessly via render.com (no cc)

    Sure I could have used one of my idlers, but then they wouldn't be idlers any more.

    Awesome product and worth checking out if you have a simple app to host.

    About ~348TB monthly

  • @fijxu said: About ~348TB monthly

    that's a lot.
    I'm curios how much that server costs and how do you finance it.
    Not sure if asking that will be inappropriate or not.

    As mentioned, your instance is the only one working constantly, so thanks for that! I wanted to ask, do you have some suggestion which FOSS mobile app can be used for that instance? I know NewPipe doesn't work and LibreTube works with piped, if I'm not wrong.

    I see. How the backup is handled?

    Mounted the datadir in a location that is already backed up.

    do you have any other service running on the server?

    Yes

    specially nginx/apache2 or similar?

    nginx as reverse proxy, I have never understood people that run containers without a reverse proxy

    do you have any firewall?

    Yes, but not local

  • @Astro how is that relevant to my question? Those are traffic stats and I asked for mobile app.

    Best 2024 self-host: a Mosh SSH server. Holy cow that was overdue. The internet is finally free to crash 200 times per day & rotate IP address, and I never lose my SSH sessions!

    This helped me discover that the PosteItaliane ISP is actually usable.

    Will try this out seems to be very good based on what I read on the website 😁

    You could also just use screen or tmux which should be available in pretty much every distribution ever - screen has been around since at least the 90s.

    Those work over TCP/SSH, when the ISP drops the line and the IP address rotates, all SSH connections also drop or lag for a minute. With Mosh the shell resumes working immediately.

    Yaa I do know about tmux and used it too but I thought maybe this was better than them so said so, so this is same like tmux then right? I thought maybe it was like a replacement for ssh as ssh session get logged out and tmux does run on background but it says mosh will be connected and is faster then ssh [correct me if I am wrong as this was only what I could understand 😅]

    What spec needed for a diabetic prediction model? Seems interesting a weekend project to play around. Keto diet worked very well for me, pushed me from pre diabetes range (110-120) to 70-75 range.

    Oh, I didn't realise it used UDP - sounds cool.

    TBH, I've never really had any problems with ssh+screen, so I've never investigated any alternatives - I find if it does reconnect it's back in a couple of seconds, but then I don't tend to ssh on the move, so even if I'm using mobile data it never usually never disconnects frequently.

    Oh, I forgot to make a list of what I started to selfhost last year in 2024:

    • Cloudflared (used for Cloudflare Tunnel)
    • CloudflareDDNS (used for apps that can't be used with Cloudflare proxy ON)
    • DuckDNS (don't use it anymore because it had 2 downtimes very close to eachother and decided to use CloudflareDDNS instead)
    • Nginx Proxy Manager
    • Homarr (for homepage)
    • qBittorrent (for experimental purposes of course)
    • WireGuard
    • Jellyfin
    • Nextcloud
    • Immich
    • Uptime Kuma (for monitoring internal services)
    • The Lounge (for mIRC)

  • I forgot to say but at Friday last week, I had a go at installing Beszel and gave up. Firstly it was only happy being a / on a domain not in a subdirectory, which I could work around, but didn't particularly want as it'd be more discoverable to hacking attempts.

    I then found that for whatever reason, the freshly installed system that created a new database on startup didn't have the "Create User" button as per the docs. There was a prompt for a command you could type in the web page to create a user, but that command didn't work. Using beszel --help I discovered that the subcommand was now superuser not admin, but creating a new user with a password from the command line I had to guess didn't actually let me log in with that user. Looking at github issues, nobody else had that problem, so I gave up at that point. Maybe it was because I was using the binary download rather than the docker package that most of the documentation talked about. Meh.

    Over the weekend, I installed Zabbix and that was a much steeper learning curve, but it does actually just work, once you've got used to its weird way of doing stuff. It feels like a 1980s German bureaucrat designed the UI - everything is there, but you have to have adopted their mindset before you can find it. But once you follow the tutorials, you can start to understand it, it seems to work well and it produces nice things on a dashboard. It also uses relative paths, so I can put it behind a reverse proxy on a less guessable subdirectory name, which makes me happy.

    One thing that looks nice, that I've not tried yet, is there seems to be plugins for pretty much every conceivable thing you might want - so e.g. it can pull stats out of haproxy and integrate them into the same dashboard as something else. You can also use a script called zabbix-sender to send arbitrary data to the server, so I'm going to use this so my app backend can feed stats into the same dashboard and also have some worker nodes to ping all my haproxys from different places around the world and present them as one graph. I can probably do that last one with an existing plugin if I look into it.

    Another thing to maybe explore is pulling data out to present more nicely with grafana, but that's much lower on my priority list.

    I used the binary and I had both the server and agent running in less than a minute. Probably the easiest install of my life :D

    But it's such a diffrent beast than Zabbix that they arent even worth comparing tbh. Zabbix is amazing!

    Meshtastic, someone started the network in the city here a year ago.
    Now we got 100+ nodes... and growing.

    TLDR: Its a short messaging service using LoRaWAN, a giant mesh network via Radio.
    Uses little to no power, works with standalone devices and you can just get a smartphone app and peer with bluetooth way cheaper.

    I ran reach the entire city, with one message.
