As you may already know, or not. I'm self-hosting a view apps, where it doesn't mean home-labbing them. My flat wasn't designed to have network cables in all rooms, and storing more units than Synology NAS, HomeAssistant, RasbberyPi and Router on a tiny Ikea shelf could be a dangerous situation. That is why I'm not …

That is the next iteration of the "5 AM Club" Kubernetes migration. As you can remember from other entries published in this series, I started playing with Kubernetes daily. Not on a daily basis, but literally every single day. To be honest, I'm pretty happy with the results. However, my plan has one challenge, that …

Last time we configured our cluster step by step maybe without public code yet, but someday I will publish it. Probably when it will be smooth enough to share. Nevertheless, we have a working cluster. Today I will focus on connecting the External Secret Operator with Doppler. So let's introduce today's stars. External …

Over some time I was really happy with my podman + ansible setup. It was great, but do you know what wasn’t such great? Deployment rollbacks. It all started with linkwarden. On my miniflux, I received a notification - that a new minor release is ready. You can use GitHub repos as RSS links and received notification …

I've been a self-hoster for a while. The adventure started with regular mani-pc manufactured by HP. 32G of RAM, Intel gen 10, and 1T HDD drive. However, as long as it was a great experience at the beginning, with time it became a challenge. My stack was built with portainer and a bunch of docker-compose files. It leads …

At the beginning of September, I saw a post from Johannes Koch about self-hosting CodeCommit alternative. Then I realized, that I'm using my home, not such a popular, but very nice and solid git repository system. To be more precise, much more than a git server. Let's welcome OneDev. Git server with CI/CD, kanban, and …

This post will be different, than usual. It will be soft, flexible, and with late summer vibes. Please stop coding, deploying, or whatever is important you're doing. That will be the most helpful post you will read today! Let's talk about being old, or more correctly about seniority. What will distinguish you as a …

Yesterday I decided to solve another, probably non-existent problem. So for quite a long time, I was looking for a solution that would allow me to schedule meetings with friends, family, and clients (the custom domain looks very professional). Most of them are paid every month. Which in my case is not a very …

If you have read my latest post about accessing RHEL in the cloud, you may notice that we’re accessing the cockpit console, via SSM Session manager port forwarding. That’s not an ideal solution. I’m not talking in bed, it’s just not ideal(but cheap). Today I realised that using Amazon WorkSpaces Secure Browser could be …

While writing a post about setting up Keycloak, which should be live this month(it's a bit harder, than I thought), I decided that it would be great to use my custom domain and play with it as well. As having sso.3sky.in looks cool, also unexpectedly it’s quite cheap. But why do I need it? It’s like 10$ per domain. Yes …
