Has anyone used BotKube?
So I've been trying to get botkube to work, but it seems to me like the helm chart documentation is outdated? I've been looking at the values and trying to make things work and it didn't really work for me.. https://github.com/Michaelpalacce/HomeLab/blob/master/cluster/homelab/apps/botkube/helmrelease.yaml is what I tried

How to orchestrate all services on server?
Also for configuration storage and git, I recommend taking a gitops approach to things. You can checkup FluxCD2. Here is my repo for reference https://github.com/Michaelpalacce/HomeLab

Looking for tips / recommendations for new selfhoster
A few suggestions and thinks I wish I knew when I started ( personal opinions incoming ): 1. Get a single well sized server ( I'd go for 8 cpus .. And like more than 16 gigs of ram and 250+ ssd, ideally m.2 nvme ). Don't bother with raspberry pis.. Check my profile for my previous post to see a comparison of raspberry pi cluster and a x86 cluster... 2. Install proxmox to do virtualization 3. The majority of People in this sub hate kubernetes and the minority is scared to speak, but install k3s on the vms you spin up, this way you can scale resources and not worry about some elaborate setup of which containers go to which node and how to setup tls offloading, load balancing and much much much more as kubernetes will handle it for you. ( bonus since you are a devops engineer so you are probably used to kube clusters ) 4. Use Velero to do restic backups to s3 for services that are critical like dbs and password managers etc. 5. Do everything with ansible or GitOps! My personal homelab is here: https://github.com/Michaelpalacce/HomeLab utilizing ansible, flux for GitOps and renovate to keep my services up to date ( note to say my cluster spin up isn't as nice as I want it to be since when provisioning I have a Dependency on some secrets which I do manually.. But this is only first cluster setup ) 6. Setup a VPN and administrative services on the raspberry pi you have lying around. Personally my VPN is on the router but if yours doesn't support it, do that. 7. After you are done setting everything up and you have a backup, format the drives and reinstall the vms and re set everything up. Document the process, write automation scripts until satisfied... I genuinely recommend you do this like 3 times...... 8. Vpn I guess a lot of people like wireguard or adguard home... Doesn't really matter as long as it's not open vpn and it supports multiple threads. 9. Setup nodered for some automation around your new home, you'll love it. 10. Firefly is amazing! 11. Make sure that your CSI ( Container storage interface ) supports replication. Keep 3 replicas of critical volumes! 11. If you need any help, don't forget to ask :) personally shoot me a dm and I'll do my best to help, but I'm sure most of us here would

Radicle: Open-Source, Peer-to-Peer, GitHub Alternative
This is an overreaction, almost to the point of absurdity.
Risks inherent to pipe installers are well understood by many. Using your logic, we should abandon Homebrew [1] (>38k stars on GitHub), PiHole [2] (>46k stars on GitHub), Chef [3], RVM [4], and countless other open source projects that use one-step automated installers (by piping to bash).
A more reasonable response would be to coordinate with the developers to update the docs to provide alternative installation methods, rather than throwing the baby out with the bathwater.

Runs on your OpenWrt box: AdGuard Home is network-wide blocking ads and tracking
I ran a competing project[0] on my home network for a few years before I discovered NextDNS[1]. What I lost in performance (requests don't leave my house) I gained in portability: ALL my devices can take advantage – at home and away – and time-saved. PiHole works 90% of the time, but when it did stop working, I'd have to spend a bit of time fixing it. At $20/year, I simply couldn't compete with NextDNS.
Note: This isn't a shill for NextDNS; I love these kinds of projects and think they absolutely should exist, but NextDNS just happens to be one of those dead-simple SaaS tools that is an insanely good value.

Higher fees, more ads: streaming cashes in by using the old tactics of cable TV
It definitely IS an option, but at the network level.
https://pi-hole.net/
It runs on damn near everything, and is a DNS level adblocker for the whole network.

In 2024, please switch to Firefox
I recently switched to Wipr [0]. It’s dead simple to use, and will auto update its filter lists in the background.
Adguard [1] is a decent free option.
I also use a Pi-hole [2] on my network.

Overwhelmed by a project
Are you trying to build a DNS proxy (similar to Pi-hole) that intercepts DNS requests and checks for the ones that look harmful? If so, I would suggest trying to separately build a DNS client and a DNS server, before trying to integrate them together. Start with Beej's Guide to Network Programming if you need to learn the basics of sockets, and then take a look at the documents that define the DNS protocol itself (RFC1034 and RFC1035).

It's definitely not as simple as installing an app on your phone, but I run a Pi-hole on my home network, and it does block ads in many games.
