I didn’t notice any big drops in network or CPU performance. Usually, because other network traffic had priority. But my server’s HDD constantly rattling along got me thinking that it wasn’t worth it. There are several other containers running on that box and I don’t have that much HDD activity with them.
I did this for a while. However, after subscribing to several groups, there was constant disk activity and it ate network bandwidth. After two months I’ve stopped my server and went back to using a public instance.
The last time I’ve used glances - to be fair, some years ago - it caused the main CPU usage on my Raspberry Pi 3. However, looks like it’s been fixed recently.
Possibly a bit overkill, but I’m running Zabbix in 3 containers (Core, WebUI, database). Using its agent installed on all my machines, I can monitor basically anything. Of course, you can set limits, alerts, draw graphs, etc.
That’s what happens if you rely on 3rd party services that are very eager to please anyone that spells out DMC without even waiting for the A.
There should still be the rather tame World Digital Brasil… but their Tinfoil server is down at the moment, it seems.
The thing with SearXNG is that it will search in multiple search engines in parallel and then aggregate the results. If the same result appears in all of the queries, it’ll be weighted more than one that appears in only one of the results.
This way you get very neutral overall results compared to the biased ones Google usually delivers.
Also, you can easily define custom search engines, so you could make it search on your favourite website as well.
I’m using OwnTracks in HTTP mode as I couldn’t be bothered with MQTT. For that, you only need the HTTP(S) endpoint/URL to log to, optionally user credentials and then it’s a “TrackerID”, “UserID” and “DeviceID” so the receiving server knows who’s talking.
Side note: Traccar uses different ports to receive different protocols. For OwnTracks protocol, the correct port is 5144.
My OwnTracks configuration is basically like this:
After Google Latitude shut down, I went with OwnTracks logging into the light-weight php-owntracks-recorder.
I’ve since migrated that to Traccar (normally used for car fleet management) on server-side and am still using OwnTracks to push the location updates from my iPhone.
Is that an indirect plea to open an issue for it? We should do this.
The even bigger irony is that he only sued for $50k. That’s peanuts for big D. Their lawyers probably got more for digging up that arbitration clause.

Did you also check out GoToSocial? It’s a very light Mastodon-compatible server, but comes without a user-facing GUI. So you need to use a client app.
However, I don’t know whether it can be easily migrated to from Mastodon.
Grafana and Prometheus are great if you have numeric things you want to monitor. CPU usage, RAM, disks, throughput, etc. You can then do lots of things with these numbers, mainly compare them to your other systems or alert when they go out of bounds.
However, I very much prefer Zabbix for my home network monitoring as this is not so fixated on numbers but can easily work with e.g. error messages in logfiles and alert on those. Or I can regularly check a website for new firmware versions and alert once the latest version changes. There are also lots of ready-to-use templates available from their Community Hub.
Switched from CMK to Zabbix at my previous job. Zabbix is far more comfortable and has all the same possibilities that CMK has. But you can setup everything in the web GUI and don’t need to reload anything.
Yeah, but I didn’t want to fiddle with some custom settings. The same official postgres container works great with other apps.
