Hi guys given google and samsung are now pushing for 7 year updates what are your thoughts on buying a new flag ship 1 year old.

Example buying Pixel 8 pro instead of Pixel 9 pro or S24 instead of S25 etc.

Assuming you buy new you wouldn't even really have to worry about battery degredation and processors these days are overspeced for normal day to day tasks.

Just curious is this the norm or is their a hidden catch buying a 1 year old flagship?

For context AWDL is responsible for AirDrop, AirPlay, etc

“Apple shall implement the measures for Wi-Fi Aware 4.0 in the next major iOS release, i.e. iOS 19, at the latest, and for Wi-Fi Aware 5.0 in the next iOS release at the latest nine months following the introduction of the Wi-Fi Aware 5.0 specification”

What are your guys thoughts?

Edit: Kinda found a answer

Major versions of iOS are released annually. Apple significantly extended the cycle of updates for iOS-supported devices over the years. Usually, only the latest iOS release is supported by Apple. Starting with iOS 15, Apple started to support 2 major versions of iOS, for a short period of time.

Hi guys this might be a silly question, do ios and iPad OS devices have different number of years of major updates (think ios 16, 17, 18 etc) and years of security updates?

Or do devices that don't make the cut for the latest major update immediately loose access to security updates once a new incompatible major ios update is released?

Hi guys for those of you that use pi-hole (or similar solutions like adguard home, etc) and wireguard how far away can you be from your wireguard/pi-hole server before latency becomes a major issue?

Also on a side note how many milliseconds of latency would you guys consider to be to slow?

Edit I meant dns latency sorry for not mentioning

Assuming you installed caddy via Debian, Ubuntu, Raspbian method

https://caddyserver.com/docs/install#debian-ubuntu-raspbian

add "cloudsmith/caddy/stable:any-version"; to /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades

Example:

// Automatically upgrade packages from these (origin:archive) pairs
//
// Note that in Ubuntu security updates may pull in new dependencies
// from non-security sources (e.g. chromium). By allowing the release
// pocket these get automatically pulled in.
Unattended-Upgrade::Allowed-Origins {
        "${distro_id}:${distro_codename}";
        "${distro_id}:${distro_codename}-security";
        // Extended Security Maintenance; doesn't necessarily exist for
        // every release and this system may not have it installed, but if
        // available, the policy for updates is such that unattended-upgrades
        // should also install from here by default.
        "${distro_id}ESMApps:${distro_codename}-apps-security";
        "${distro_id}ESM:${distro_codename}-infra-security";
        "${distro_id}:${distro_codename}-updates";
//      "${distro_id}:${distro_codename}-proposed";
//      "${distro_id}:${distro_codename}-backports";
        "cloudsmith/caddy/stable:any-version";
};

Origional post:

Hi guys anyone know how to use un attended upgrades with caddy.

I have ubuntu server 22.0.4.

The part that stumps me is caddy uses a external repository cloud Smith making ot difficult to setup.

I installed caddy via Debian, Ubuntu, Raspbian

https://caddyserver.com/docs/install#debian-ubuntu-raspbian

The closest example I could find to unattended upgrades with a external repo was this example using docker.

/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades

"Docker:${distro_codename}";

https://blog.coffeebeans.at/archives/1299

I'm not sure if it's as simple as

/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades

"Caddy:${distro_codename}";

Edit:

One more question affect would adding

APT::Unattended-Upgrade::Package-Blacklist "";

/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20auto-upgrades

have?

Edit2:

I just removed this I only found this from google gemini (which probably isn't the best source of info)

APT::Unattended-Upgrade::Package-Blacklist "";

Hi guys do you guys know any selfhosted cloud solution that has a combined sync and filestream option?

Context when you use seafile on macos there is seadrive (mounts external cloud like a drive) and seafile sync which syncs files to local folders. The problem is the two clients sort of act seperatly from one other (you cant make seadrive make files offline for instance neither can you preview files in seafile sync).

By contrast onedrive and google drive both have client apps which can sync on demand (file stream) and optionally make files available offline with a simple right click in context menu.

~~Side note I have tried nextcloud on mac but its experimental mount mode just keeps a placeholder .nextcloud file.~~

Edit:

Nextcloud does have proper virtual file sync. Only limitation is you can't make files availble offline via the context menu and instead need to set up manual folder syncs

Edit 2:

You need to grab the release from https://github.com/nextcloud-releases/desktop/releases/tag/v3.13.0

Specifically the vfs version Nextcloud-3.13.0-macOS-vfs.pkg

Edit 2: Fdroid Version 3.0 allows read only acess to files writing to files seems to not work

Edit: Tldr install version 3.0 from fdroid or github. Plastered version out of date.

Hi guys not sure if this is the right place to ask, but anyone having issues using the file browser integration for seafile?

The android app by itself seems to work but the files integration only seems to be broken.

By contrast the ios version of seafile the app and its files app integration both work with no issue. Additionally the webdav, browser, and mac apps (seadrive) have no issues.

Other context:

• Running Seafile server 11.0.9 on Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS using tailscale
• Seafile android app version 2.3.7 running on Android 14

Hi guys I was wondering if there is a streamlined way to disable remote acess to a selfhosted service (say at a reverse proxy level) if a published security vunerability is present.

I know, ideally you want to keep all your selfhosted services up to date. However on certain selfhosted service auto updates may not be viable (due to major changes between updates) and you being unavailable 24/7 to respond to vunerabilities.

Curious on your thoughts and suggestions. So far the only middle ground I can find is realying on a vpn wireguard, tailscale, etc.
