I can recommend some stuff I’ve been using myself :

• Dolibarr as an ERP + CRM : requires some work to configure initially. As most (if not all) features are disabled by default, it requires enabling them based on what you need. It also has a marketplace with a bunch of modules you can buy
• Gitea to manage codebases for customer projects. It can also do CI but I’ve not looked into it yet
• Prometheus and its ecosystem (mostly promtail and grafana) for monitoring and alerting
• docker mail server : makes it quite easy to self host a full mail server. The guides in their doc made it painless for me to configure dmarc/SPF/other stuff that make e-mail notoriously hard to host
• Cal.com as a self hostable alternative to calendly
• Authentik for single sign-on and centralized permission management
• plausible for lightweight analytics
• a mix of wireguard, iptables and nginx to basically achieve the same as cloudflare proxying and tunnels

I design, deploy and maintain such infrastructures for my own customers, so feel free to DM me with more details about your business if you need help with this

In my experience, OnlyOffice has the best compatibility with M$ Office. You should try it if you haven’t

It’s not that I don’t believe you, I was genuinely interested in knowing more. I don’t understand what’s so “precious” about a random stranger’s thought on the internet if it’s not backed up with any source.

Moreover, I did try searching around for this and could not find any result that seemed to answer my question.

Can you give examples of countries where mainstream media is not owned by billionaires ?

2 years ago was already amazing for someone who tried to play CS 1.6 and trackmania using wine 18 years ago

I’m pretty sure they are actually hosting it. The tech is quite different (cofractal uses urls ending with {z}/{x}/{y}, while their tile sever uses this stuff that works quite differently)

They told me about hosting their own tile server earlier today. I’m really impressed by how fast they moved !

A pull request for a privacy page during the onboarding is in the works, and I’ve been working with them to update the settings page and documentation (with the goal of providing an easy way to switch map providers). They are also working on a privacy policy, and want to ship all of this in a few weeks as part of a single release.

Once again, I’m really impressed with how well they’re handling this

With all the botting going on on Reddit, this whole Google AI deal makes me think of the recent paper that demonstrates that, as common sens would suggest, deep learning models collapse when successive generations are trained on the previous generations’ output

Is named actually running as the bind user inside the container ? Maybe a USER bind line below the RUN lines will help.

I’ll probably look into newer fancier options such as Caddy one day, but as far as I remember Nginx has never failed me : it’s stable, battle tested, and extremely mature. I can’t remember a single time when I’ve been affected by a breaking change (I could not even find one by searching changelogs) and the feature set makes it very versatile. Newer alternatives seem really interesting, but it seems to me they have quite frequent breaking changes and are not as feature rich.

That being said, I’d love to see side-by-side comparison of Nginx and Caddy configs (if anyone wants to translate to Caddy the Nginx caching proxy for OSM I shared earlier this week, that would make a good and useful example), as well as examples of features missing from Nginx. This may give me enough motivation to actually try Caddy :)

(edit : ad->and)

I don’t use nginx-proxy-manager, but if you want to share what you tried, I will try to help you figure what’s not working

It’s the clients (web/android app, probably iOS too) that are making these requests.

To the best of my knowledge, the Immich server inside the container is not making requests to the outside. It is merely sending a style.json to the client displaying a map, which then fetches tiles from the Cofractal URL inside this JSON.

Or you can quite easily configure nginx as your personal caching proxy with an arbitrarily long TTL/retention duration (you can check out my follow-up post for instructions on doing that)

I used to wonder what kind of nerd notices this kind of thing, now I’m one of them

Edit : If you want to join us :

• you can run Pi-hole which is a self-hosted DNS server that allow monitoring/blocking DNS requests from devices configured to use it. In its default configuration, it acts as a network wide ad/tracker blocker.
• On Android, you can install Rethink DNS. This will configure itself as a VPN on your device, forcing all traffic to go through it. This allows it to act as an on-device firewall that allow monitoring/blocking DNS requests and TCP/UDP connections. This is similar to the features of Pi-hole, but the fact that it’s on-device allows it to be app aware : the logs will detail which app is responsible for which connection, and the allow/block rules can be app-dependent. The app honestly goes beyond all my expectations :
  • it does a good job at being easy to use by default
  • it is very configurable which gives you a lot of control if you want/need/can handle it
  • You can configure it to route traffic (after applying firewall rules) to a Wireguard VPN or through Orbot. (Apps that act as VPNs are not compatible with each other : you can only have one active at a time)
  • You can even configure several Wireguard interfaces at the same time, and route specific apps through specific tunnels

I don’t use Traefik myself, but this documentation page seems to suggest that Traefik only allows in-memory cache (which would eat RAM and not persist across reboots). You can probably run Nginx with this config inside a container for the caching, then use Traefik to handle requests to immich.your-domain.tld/map_proxy/* with the caching proxy container.

What do you mean ? Can you give me the exact link that’s not working ?

At this point, I’ll just assume you are trolling and stop replying after this comment.

This post is trying to provide a generic solution to the fact that there are no reasonable way to get map tiles without relying on a third party provider.

I additionally included instructions on how to set it up with Immich, but I don’t see how a caching proxy in front of OSM should be part of Immich, a software focused on managing photo libraries.

How does an nginx config fit as a “diff” when the Immich repo and docker images do not include nginx (or any other reverse proxy) ?

Blocking the DNS was the first thing I did. This is intended to restore the map feature without having to trust a random company I’ve never heard of.

What do you mean by “a diff of a code fix” that would be simpler ?

You can, but you would not be able to display the map. Might as well disable the map server-wide
