@ironicbadger - I just listened to the most recent #SelfHosted #podcast and heard you & @ChrisLAS talking about #monitoring your self hosted bits. I’m currently deploying some system level monitoring to complement my #uptimekuma monitoring of services & came across this gem of #NixOS configuration: https://blog.korfuri.fr/posts/2022/11/autogenerated-prometheus-configs-for-multiple-nixos-hosts/

What are your thoughts? Personally, I’m leaning towards this stack:
- Grafana + Prometheus server + Telegraf agent
- Grafana + Loki + Promtail

Anyone who uses @homeassistant please fill out their community survey and share it with others. They are trying to better understand who uses and interacts with HA so they can better support the user base. Since they are not doing crazy invasive things that commercial platforms do, they don't have a lot of this info and have to rely on it being provided via surveys and such. https://home-assistant.typeform.com/communitysurvey

It’s no longer just us #privacy advocates saying that you should use encrypted communications: now the #FBI says everyone should.

Personally, I’m a big fan of @signalapp but also have WhatsApp since it’s so prevalent in Europe.
