Questioning my life choices as I debate whether or not it's worth setting up a single sign-on system for all the shit that I host personally to give friends and family access to. 🤣
Discussion
Sounds like a lot of tech support in your future. Is it worth it?
I mean, for me personally yes, I already host all my own shit, I'm just moving it finally off of vps's to a server I control.
And I have people who use various services here and there, but having a central control point for everything I host is appealing to me.
I mean for people using the services. I assumed you meant bringing people outside the household into the fold. I'm imagining something like Nextcloud and people losing data or something like that. It was hell enough to manage for myself and household.
I can count on one hand the amount of people who actually regularly use my shit. And it's mostly media stuff, like Jellyfin anyways. I'm not going to be doing serious data hosting for most people. I'm definitely not running a nextcloud that people can share.
It's mostly media and recipes. I think the most important data being used by someone is my roommate who also uses the house's password manager.
I'm trying to learn how to do this.
I'm in way over my head.
But I'm gonna get it eventually.
You got this. If you ever got questions, feel free to reach out.
What solution are you looking at implementing? I'm working with VoidAuth and it seems to work well so far.
Not sure yet. I'm still looking at my choices. Authentik isnwhat im looking at currently
