  • I feel like you didn’t read the post or issue i linked, nor their license.txt and are instead just trying to talk past me.

    I don’t really care about this project or debating their intentionally ambiguous license structure. My point was that the grant of rights explicitly only grants AGPL access to create compiled versions of mattermost. That is not how FOSS licenses work and is incompatible with FOSS licenses because it lacks the “freedom” that even AGPL would typically grant.

    You may be licensed to use source code to create compiled versions not produced by Mattermost, Inc. in one of two ways:

    1. Under the Free Software Foundation’s GNU AGPL v3.0, subject to the exceptions outlined in this policy; or

    2. Under a commercial license available from Mattermost, Inc. by contacting commercial@mattermost.com

    I’m not saying that people can’t dual license or that they can’t release their product in other non-free ways. That’s not the issue here. The issue is that you are saying it’s AGPL, and it’s not–Not really. It’s only AGPL to create a compiled version of mattermost.



  • Host Jellyfin

    Some form of hosted musicstreaming integration with my local music

    For the music, jellyfin can do this and it uses subsonic api which means you can connect to the music server with some mobile and desktop apps. Alternatively i like navidrome for more specialized music service that still uses subsonic api. Some people prefer not having a second service if jellyfin is good enough for their needs.

    Automate Backups and push them on my server

    For backups look into borg if your NAS doesn’t have anything native.

    make all of the above things available where ever I want using my own self hosted domain.

    Look into doing let’s encrypt DNS-01challenges via something like acme.sh if your domain registrar has an api. this will let you get your own certs for local use without exposing the subdomains on the domains dns. If you’re going to make them public then that is less important but it’s still a good way to automate renewals and deploying regardless.

    run my own dns

    Pihole unbound can offer a recursive dns server. Very easy set up.

    In the long term I also want to be able to host my own webapps, since I will soon start to develop one for someone.

    Now I want to know what suggestions do you have, for stuff thats really cool and that I can selfhost.

    Outside of the obvious segmenting public zones and firewall, you could self host an SSO service. This would allow you to easily put forward auth on a dev build if you were needing to keep it selectively private until/if you made it public.

    In general though, i just wait until i come across a problem or need and then i see if a service exists to solve that. Occasionally looking through the awesome selfhosted list or similar helps find blind spots i didn’t know i had.



  • Here’s some tools i used and my experience with them

    • beets: very powerful CLI tool. Has a learning curve but can go through your whole music folder, automatically tag stuff it is confident in and prompt you when it’s not sure.
    • musicbrainz picard: really powerful gui. Can add a bunch of folders, group them by album and have it detect the right albums.
    • kde kid3: simple gui app that if all you’re looking for is basic tag input then it makes it super easy to manually tag a bunch of content all at the same time.

    I personally used all three of these. Beets as first pass that got me pretty far. Music brainz to fill in a lot of holes. And kid3 when i just wanted to do a bunch of manual updates
