Mine is beaverhabits, just a good habit app that has come out recently.

Does anyone have a guide or tutorial that can help me make sense of what everyone is talking about here?
well, i could just link you to docker’s documentation, but that’s not super helpful. The tldr is that docker is a way of distributing/running software you run on servers.
What do you want to do? Do you just want to learn, or do you want to set something up?
I’m a big fan of Twitch Channel Points Miner v2 for getting all the hats (MT items) from Twitch without watching anything.
Looks like that one isn’t maintained. That page links to this one instead.
Distrobox. Building weird projects is nicer when I can start from a fresh system each time.
I use https://ntfy.sh/ for a lot of stuff and I don’t see anyone talk about it. I recently wrote a container to poll RSS feeds and send push notifications via ntfy https://github.com/chunkystyles/rssToNtfy
I’m a lifetime Pushover user. As far as I can tell, ntfy isn’t using official push notifications whereas Pushover does. Also, ntfy has issues on iOS. That’s why I’m still running all my notifications via Pushover.
I thought I replied to this earlier, but it seems like it didn’t take.
Pushover seems nice, but doesn’t seem to be self-hostable. It looks like there is a replacement service in the works called Overpush.
All I can say is that I don’t own any Apple products and never even looked at that section of their documentation. The Android and web clients work flawlessly, except that the Android client doesn’t support markdown.
While it may work great, nothing beats using the manufacturer’s push notification channels in terms of reliability and battery consumption. At least from my experience. And that’s why Pushover is still kicking around after so many years…
Ntfy, if setup correctly, uses a web socket connection, which reduces the battery usage. I don’t think I ever had it setup without that, so I can’t say how bad it is. But with it, it’s not a drain for me on a Pixel 7.
I use Gotify I self host it and it uses an app on my Android, super easy to set up and use. I tie in Home Assistant and a few other setups with it and it runs great.
PlantUML-Server: Github / Docker Hub I do use some plantuml graphics in my Obsidian notes to document my network setup. And it’s really nice to have a self hosted renderer where all my devices can access it.
UnifiBrowser Github / Docker Docker Image to access the Unifi API, helped a lot to debug the integration of Unifi data into other tools (e.g. Munin)
Wanderer Github - Platform to save and upload gps tracks. I do misuse it as a platform for my motorbike tour ‘library’ for easy choice which tour I want to do
I think my most obscure one is “Homarr”, which as the name suggests is a dashboard designed with the *arr suite in mind, but I use it as a regular dashboard for my regular services.

Having a browser in a browser is surprisingly useful.
What is your use case?
Bypassing work sandboxing
Firewall bypass °!°
I used it to display the Home Assistant UI on an old iPad 2 which didn’t support the app or even the Web UI through Safari.
Ooh, thats a nice solution! Ive got an old iPad myself that doesnt do much, I could use that and set it up for the kitchen for my wife and I (mealie recipes)
KitchenOwl - Smart Shopping List & Recipe Manager - paste any online recipe (including YouTube) and it will add the missing ingredients to your shopping list.
N8N - IFTTT/Zapier alternative visual scripter with NodeRed touch. Has integrations with thousands of APIs.
Not directly a docker image but Obsidian LiveSync, an Obsidian plugin that uses a self-hosted CouchDB or Object storage to replicate official Sync.
Why did you pick N8N over Node-RED?
Node-RED requires enough technical knowledge that it becomes not easier, but harder than writing JS code when things go medium size. N8N is superior in UX.
Also although I greatly appreciate everyone’s efforts, I don’t want to rely on community plugins that require maintenance and may or may not abandoned after it’s developer loses interest/move on with their life. TBH NPM is brimming with those.
Haven’t tried node, so I’m interested to hear as well, but n8n is super easy to set up, and I like the interface.
I’ve looked at node multiple times in the past, and I remember finding no reason to switch.
N8n just got 50k stars on github
Hoarder. It is bookmark management with AI tagging. Tags are amazing when you don’t have to assign them yourself.
Tabs were the worst invention in the world for those of us with ADHD
Anything can be a docker container
Yeah, so pick a cool one
My point is you can make Dockerfiles do a lot of things
Which one
Webtop. Lightweight Linux VMs but in Docker.
Not useful on its own but https://sablierapp.dev/ was really useful for me in getting back resources from some of the heavyweight containers I use. For those unfamiliar with it, Sablier can stop containers that go idle and then spin them back up automatically when a request comes in. It requires Traefik, NGINX, or Caddy running always so it could complicate your server but for me I couldn’t do without it.
I believe this can integrate with various reverse proxies and trigger on-demand?
Right. When a request comes in, Traefik, for one, will hold the connection until the service is back up then forward the request as usual. This works for UIs as well. You’ll get a temporary loading page then redirected to the requested UI when the service is up.
So would this work well e.g. with the the *arr stack? Because most of the services wouldn’t even need to run always
How would the timed tasks be handled if they’re offline
It probably would work well with those as long as the startup time was quick (my containers come up almost instantly) and the initiating clients can handle a bit of latency. I didn’t notice any hiccups in my use at all.
This sounds quite interesting!
https://gitlab.com/Nulide/findmydeviceserver, a FOSS and self-hosted alternative to location history. Particularly useful for finding my device which has no Google services on it.
I’m using Traccar for this.
I used Traccar before switching to FMD. It used a lot of battery for somewhat inaccurate results in my case (might be phone related).
I’m using OwnTracks on the phone. No complaints at all.
sorry what, it can keep a location history? how?
You need to install the client from F-Droid and it periodically polls your device for its location.

I’ve been wanting to spin this up myself, but the fact that the Dev says his example docker-compose.yml is incomplete has stopped me in the past. Did you have to add anything to get it functional?
the only change I had to make was to add the config file to the volumes list:
compose.yml
services: fmd-server: image: registry.gitlab.com/nulide/findmydeviceserver:v0.7.0 container_name: fmd-server volumes: - data:/data - ./fmd/data:/fmd/db/ - ./fmd/config/config.yml:/fmd/config.yml:ro restart: unless-stopped networks: - fmd_server # ports: # - 8080:8080 # legacy volumes: data: networks: fmd_server:Awesome, thanks. I’m going to give it a try. It seems like the best FOSS find my device type service available by far.
https://github.com/modem7/docker-rickroll
There are also variations on this that play ASCII Star wars and modified versions of the song that are terrible on purpose.
I set this as the admin login link to my docker system just in case somebody manages to infiltrate my network.
😂
traefik-kop which allows me to use Docker-Compose labels for Traefik even on my other Docker hosts without the need for Docker Swarm or K8s.
That is actually very useful. I’m saving that for later.
