Selfhosted

A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

all the containers change IP addresses frequently. For home assistant a static IP address of the proxy manager is mandatory in order to reach it. For jellyfin it is useful to see which device accesses jellyfin. If the IP always changes, it doesn't work properly.

How do I fix a container IP with podman compose (or docker)

Docker can keep track of assigned ranges. It will either allocate around them or tell you there's a conflict if you have explicit overlaps, and refuse to start the container.

Also, for most self-hosters scaling is the least of their needs.

Except it is explicitly being told to use a singular IP address here. So the engine is either going to go against explicit assignment or going to create a conflict within its own network. Neither of which are the expected behavior.

Just because people are self hosting, doesn’t mean they should be doing things incorrectly.
