Any comparisons to SilverBullet.md? It's my favorite so far

Do you use garage for backups by any chance? I was wanting to deploy it in kubernetes, but one of my uses would be to back up volumes, and.. that doesn't really help me if the kubernetes cluster itself is broken somehow and I have to rebuild it.

I kind of want to avoid a separate cluster for storage or even separate vms. I'm still thinking of deploying garage in k8s, and then just using rclone or something to copy the contents from garage s3 to my nas

I really like mine too, I also have a tube and a pro. Both of them have a weird issue with the TV I use most often though. Both shields won't display anything unless I boot them in safe mode.

They both work on a different tv that is 4k. This one is an older 1080p plasma. But it's weird that it used to work just fine. It might be related to the TV, but no other devices have issues so it's cheaper to replace one of the shields than buy a new tv lol.

I'm still using an Nvidia shield which I guess counts as an android box. I thought they'd release a new version by now, but I'm considering building a htpc instead.

I used to use a raspberry pi 2 or 3 and it worked fine for 1080p content. Not sure if the newer pis support 4k, but it's on my list to look into eventually.

This is an option, my main reason for not wanting to use a hosted k8s service is cost. I already have the hardware, so I'd rather use it first if possible.

Though I have been thinking of converting some sites to be statically-generated and hosted externally.

Network Policies are a good idea, thanks.

I was more worried about escaping the container, but maybe I shouldn't be. I'm using Talos now as the OS and there isn't much on the OS as it is. I can probably also enforce all of my public services to run as non-root users and not allow privileged containers/etc.

Thanks for recommending crowdsec/falco too. I'll look into those

It's mostly working fine for me.

An alternative I tried before was just whitelisting which IPs are allowed to access specific ingresses, but having the ingress listen on both public/private networks. I like having a separate ingress controller better because I know the ingress isn't accessible at all from a public ip. It keeps the logs separated as well.

Another alternative would be an external load balancer or reverse proxy that can access your cluster. It'd act as the "public" ingress, but would need to be configured to allow specific hostnames/services through.

I did actually consider a 3rd cluster for infra stuff like dns/monitoring/etc, but at the moment I have those things in separate vms so that they don't depend on me not breaking kubernetes.

Do you have your actual public services running in the public cluster, or only the load balancer/ingress for those public resources?

Also how are you liking garage so far? I was looking at it (instead of minio) to set up backups for a few things.

Quadlet

I haven't heard of Quadlet before this, thanks I'll take a look at it.

Unraid has this with their cache pools. ZFS can also be configured to have a cache drive for writes.

You can also DIY with something like mergerfs and separate file systems.

What you read online may have been referring to how cloudflare itself can always see the unencrypted traffic?

Cloudflare tunnels are encrypted, but inside of that encrypted tunnel could be a regular http stream.

I've been in the process of migrating a lot things back to kubernetes, and I'm debating whether I should have separate private and public clusters.

Some stuff I'll keep out of kubernetes and leave in separate vms, like nextcloud/immich/etc. Basically anything I think would be more likely to have sensitive data in it.

I also have a few public-facing things like public websites, a matrix server, etc.

Right now I'm solving this by having two separate ingress controllers in one cluster - one for private stuff only available over a vpn, and one only available over public ips.

The main concern I'd have is reducing the blast radius if something gets compromised. But I also don't know if I really want to maintain multiple personal clusters. I am using Omni+Talos for kubernetes, so it's not too difficult to maintain two clusters. It would be more inefficient as far as resources go since some of the nodes are baremetal servers and others are only vms. I wouldn't be able to share a large baremetal server anymore, unless I split it into vms.

What are y'all's opinions on whether to keep everything in one cluster or not?

You'll need to include new instructions to follow too!

What's everyones recommendations for a self-hosted authentication system?

My requirements are basically something lightweight that can handle logins for both regular users and google. I only have 4-5 total users.

So far, I've looked at and tested:

  • Authentik - Seems okay, but also really slow for some reason. I'm also not a fan of the username on one page, password on the next screen flow
  • Keycloak - Looks like it might be lighter in resources these days, but definitely complicated to use
  • LLDAP - I'd be happy to use it for the ldap backend, but it doesn't solve the whole problem
  • Authelia - No web ui, which is fine, but also doesn't support social logins as far as I can tell. I think it would be my choice if it did support oidc
  • Zitadel - Sounds promising, but I spent a couple hours troubleshooting it just to get it working. I might go back to it, but I've had the most trouble with it so far and can't even compare the actual config yet
