Monica is open source and has a good API. Why would you not hook into that instead of building yet another tool?

You don't mention it, but was AI used to write this? And if so how does its security compare to Monica which is fairly well battle testes at this stage and somewhat reasonable to be putting other peoples personal information into.



Fantastic, I have long used Culture Ship names [0] to name my devices but this is a far easier list to reference than others online

For LAN servers, I used to name my Linux machines after penguins. It seemed apt, made me smile, especially when new people came on board.

The Windows and Solaris boxes had numbers before i got there. A new guy started moving them to a name that included the os version like 'server-2008' in it. Never really liked that


Good to see I'm probably not the only one who worked with a monstrous single database for all the things named "Yggdrasil", and a job server that was seemingly constantly trying to take it down named "Nidhogg".


Could do with having Minecraft Blocks instead of just Minecraft Materials, that's what I use for my home network




I love Centminmod but some of our clients need a UI so we settled on a mix of https://hestiacp.com/ and https://www.cloudpanel.io/



Another super super fast website is https://www.mcmaster.com/


I compared OctoDNS with DNSControl (https://github.com/StackExchange/dnscontrol) a few years ago and settled with DNSControl because it had more providers out of the box.

But using either of these tools to have your DNS redeploy-able to a new provider is a great idea for resiliency.


Do you have a dedicated git repo for your dnscontrol config and use github actions to run dnscontrol when you push?

I've been thinking about doing this for my personal domains, but not sure if it's a good idea


https://cachethq.io/ is great for this


Amusingly enough, it is down right now because of Cloudflare :-)


Been using Cachet for quite a while before inevitably migrating to Atlassian's Statuspage.io. I'm a huge fan of self-hosting and self-managing every single thing in existence but Cachet was just such a PITA to maintain and there was just no other good alternative to Cachet that was also open source.


Looks cool, but I think the name is very similar to Keeper (https://www.keepersecurity.com/en_GB/enterprise.html)


Thanks for the feedback, I hope you check out the app! Yes I know it is similar, I actually went through several different names. I started with PassMaster and then PassMan. PassMan was already taken on PyPI, and PassMaster was also quite long to use for a cli command. I liked Keepr as it is short to type out and I like the connotations it has to keys, secrets and security!


It exposed their committer email (I know its already public on the site, but still)

You can wget the whole .git folder and look through the commit history, so if at any point something had been pushed which should not have been its available
