Infinity for Lemmy in c/android@lemdro.id

[–] theghostoutside_@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

For some reason, the link (https://codeberg.org/Bazsalanszky/Infinity-For-Lemmy) doesn't work in Obtainium for me. It just says 'Could not find a suitable release'. Any ideas? (I have a number of other apps working fine)

Photoprism or Immich in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

[–] theghostoutside_@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

I've been using Photoprism for a while, but found it very resource-heavy for my poor little NAS. Even after finishing ingesting my photo library, and finished tagging all the faces, it still occupies about 50% CPU routinely. However, I can't install Immich because apparently the CPU on my NAS doesn't support AVX required by typesense.. Anyone know of some work-around?

Pihole vs AdGuard Home (lemmy.world)

Hey, not sure if this is the right community, but looking for some information.

I've seen many people strongly recommend AdGuard Home for network-wide ad-blocking either in isolation, or in direct comparison to Pihole. But I can't really find why there is such a strong recommendation. The only clear reason I've seen is that AdGuard is easier to set-up.

However, I already have Pihole set-up on all of my networks on separate Raspberry Pis at each location. I have it running as the DNS server so that every device that connects to the network automatically gets ad-blocking. I have a few groups set-up within Pihole for slightly nuanced blocking

i.e. some of my family still want to use Facebook etc. (on a separate subnet).

So my question is, considering I already have Pihole set-up, am I missing some key benefit that AdGuard Home would provide?

Which Dynamic DNS Service are you using? in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

I use DuckDNS. There's been only one outage for the ~2 years I've been using it and it's free. I also use DuckDNS to acquire the SSL certificates for the reverse proxy.
