  • I’ve been meaning to set up my own PeerTube instance (I want a place to share my cycling videos that is not YouTube), but looking at the official guide on how to do that feels like I’ve jumped into the deep end of a pool and I don’t know how to swim.
    I’m not entirely foreign with Linux and using the terminal, but I’m not confident using docker and docker compose quite to the degree that the developer seemingly expects me to be.

    It would be nice if I could just install an app on my unRAID server, fill in some variables, and be up and running from there.
    That’s how easy it is to set up a Mastodon instance, why can’t PeerTube be that simple?






  • All my devices get named after cities. I try to make it somewhat relevant to the purpose of the machine.
    Usually things related to the device (e.g. network shares) get named after neighbourhoods in the respective cities.

    • Main PC: SAN-FRANCISCO,
    • File server: SARAJEVO,
      • Shares: VRATNIK, BISTRIK, SEDRENIK, HRASTOVI,
    • Work laptop: SEATTLE,
    • Phone: BARCELONA,
    • Media box: CANNES.

    My boyfriend names all of his devices after planetary bodies, much like OP.
    Thing related to the devices are named after the moons of the respective planet.

    • Main PC: SATURN,
      • Drives: ATLAS, PROMETHEUS, TITAN, HYPERION, JANUS,
    • File server: JUPITER,
      • Shares: GANYMEDE,
    • Phone: PLUTO,
    • Laptop: CHARON.

    (He just realised that last one is inconsistent, and is renaming it to MERCURY)
