Ah, gotcha.

Is there like a list where you can enter your server so that other people use it as an ntp server? Or how did you advertise it to have 2800 requests flooding in?

I have similar specs and cost with ionos

It says posted 4 days ago, updated yesterday.

For most stuff the pi4 is also enough. Jellyfin (no transcoding) works fine on mine. It takes a bit to generate the chapter images and the timeline peek images when ingesting a new movie, but I’ve never had any issues with playback.

Wait what? Do I understand that correctly? You have a raspberry pi with a direct network connection to an atomic clock? That’s so awesome!

Some devices will use a hard coded DNS instead of respecting the one on the network

Right, and I am pointing out that non-cooperative devices still won’t be blocked by pihole if they so desire.

Right, so flowing that link there are three ways for DNS:

Classic on port 53,

Dns over TLS on port 853

Dns over https.

The first two can be blocked, because they have specific ports exclusively assigned to them. DoH can’t be blocked reliably, because it is encrypted and on a common port. Though blocking 443 on common DNS resolvers can force some clients to fall back to one of the variants that can be blocked/redirected

Dns over https is immune to that firewall method, right?

A basic image is really easy. It’s basically just

Dockerfile

FROM debian  # start with a minimal Linux system. There are probably better options than debian. Some images are made especially for docker (i.e. very minimal and light weight). 
RUN apt install dependencies  # do what ever you need to get your app running. 
RUN echo "options and stuff" >> /etc/a/config/file  # you can also edit system files
COPY . /app  # copy your project into the docker container.
EXPOSE 8080  # doesn't actually do anything, but documents where the app will be listening
CMD server-binary run /app/main.php  # I have actually no idea how php server stuff works

(Docs https://docs.docker.com/reference/dockerfile/)

Then people can run your project with docker.

Edit: checking the readme some small changes would be required. Config.php should read in environment variables and the DB init SQL should be run automatically somehow.

Maybe consider paperless-ngx.

Its primary purpose is document management, but you can easily upload receipts and pictures as well. I use paperless-mobile to interact with my instance.

Nice

Only host what you need.

It’s a fundamental property of the federated system. The devs need to acknowledge it the same way you need to acknowledge that people can lie. It’s a fact, there is no easy way around it and everyone knows it.

It depends if underpowered means “too slow” for you, or “slow”. I would consider the meaning more similar to “too slow”, i.e. I think the reference point matters. Therefore for me the pi is not underpowered, just low powered. [Edit: to keep the discussion on track, I would therefore consider the pi “good enough”, which was the original claim in the second level comment]

Of course in terms of absolute numbers the pi has not a lot of processing power.

It entirely depends on what you want to do with it. So calling it underpowered is not a statement that can be made in general.

I have a pi4, 4GB. And running off of an SSD (connected via SATA to usb adapter). Sorry, forgot to specify.

Even slower would still be worth it IMO, digital document management is just so much better than keeping multiple folders of paper organized. Also I can access all my paperwork from anywhere, because the pi and my phone are both in my wireguard VPN network.

About a minute, 1:30 maybe (edit: per page on a pi4). I use an app to upload jpegs though, I don’t have a normal scanner at the moment. The higher quality scan and smaller file size may make some steps of the process quicker (no need for alignment and color correction for example) if you use a normal, proper scanner.

It doesn’t matter though. When I get home and see I got a letter I scan it and by the time I drank something, put away my clothes and stuff i had with me, the pi is done and I can edit the metadata in the web ui.

You should get a scsi enabled adapter though, otherwise you may have to disable it in the kernel boot settings. And if you forget that it will run at like kbit/s.

So true! Ew FDP!

I have a vps for 2€/month. It’s not a powerful machine, but easily enough to host wireguard and caddy.
