I always have the feeling I should know k8s more, although I am sure I do not need it. Can you mix Architectures in k8s Clusters? Like my Homelab (x64) has the Pi-Hole and the Z69 Box (ARM) takes over with a standby Pi-Hole if the homelab goes down? Or do k8s Clusters need to be uniform regarding CPU architecture?

Haha :-) I was seriously considering hosting my own KBin or Lemmy Instance on my Homelab for a bit, but then I figured it would be just for fun (which is not a bad thing) and will just consume electricity and space for something I use once or twice a day and I use almost exclusively alone. So it won't even contribute to the community. I am not even sure if it would be fast enough, but that sounds like a nice Sunday afternoon project to just prove that it works (or doesn't) for fun :-)

Hmm... Smart Mirror like Magic Mirror? It's the first time I hear this... looks really interesting! I will look into this. I always wondered where to put a panel you easily see, but is not intrusive to show some information you should know for the upcoming day... Smart Mirrors sounds like they tick all the boxes!

I must have klicked it a few seconds before I spotted the guys on the left. But I can not tell for sure if they spawned when I clicked the altar or if they where already there.

I was more thinking about Berlin - "Take my bread away", but this works too :-)

That's awesome! These are a LOT of options :-)

SSH Reverse Tunneling is super useful to get remote systems connected which only have very limited internet access through mobile carriers. They usually do NAT and you have no chance to connect to these sites with a dial-in VPN or other technologies that require YOU to connect to the remote system. So we just create a reverse ssh tunnel with autossh that is kept alive by the remote system itself and we connect back to the system to the ssh tunnel. Since ssh is installed anyway, that is one of the simplest and most versatile options to connect to these systems for us.

I see. Thank you for your reply, also to @grus. I will go the manual route for now too until we can do it right from our posts :-)

OK, dumb question probably but a quick web search did not help me (also my fault probably). But how do you crosspost? Do you need to @ place the other community names in the Subject or in the Tags or in the Text of your post?

Dammit, I'm blind. Thank you very much! The concept of a 2nd page is something that I did not expect. My fault, everything works as intended ;-)

Buuuut of course it would be neat if a click on a notification would bring you to the post that triggered the notification. Threads are pretty short at the moment, so it is not a big deal to use CTRL+F (and go to the 2nd / 3rd page LOL), but it would be nice to get to the destination in the future when this place has much more traffic (at least I hope it happens) :-)

Thanks again!

I really want to self-host Kbin, since I like the interface and approach of it a bit more than Lemmy. But since building the docker images failed on my Homelab, I spun up a fresh Ubuntu LTS 22 Server at my hoster and ran through the Admin Docs again... sitting here still after 15 Minutes it trying to build the PHP image and it does not seem to make any progress. I wish we could pull the images and run it without building them ourselves. But kbin is in its early stages, maybe someone will push built images to a registry in the future.

If this runs for another hour without any progress I guess I will call it a day and try Lemmy next.

Being interested in running my own kbin instance for family and friends, how is it going for you? Does everything work as expected?
