Ich richte gerade meine erste eigene Wohnung ein und bin ziemlich technikaffin. Ich werde auch Home Assistant aufsetzen und frage mich deshalb, bei welchen Haushaltsgeräten sich die Smart-Funktion wirklich lohnt.

Würdet ihr smarte Geräte direkt kaufen oder lieber normale Geräte nehmen und sie selbst mit Sensoren/DIY-Lösungen smart machen? (Gefrierschrank, Kühlschrank, Backofen, Waschmaschine usw.)

Mich würde besonders interessieren:

• Welches smarte Gerät ist für euch im Alltag wirklich nützlich?
• Welches smarte Gerät bereut ihr?
• Bei welchem Gerät ist der Aufpreis für „smart“ eurer Meinung nach das Geld nicht wert?
• Gibt es Funktionen, die man mit Sensoren/DIY-Lösungen nicht sinnvoll nachrüsten kann?
• Welches Gerät würdet ihr definitiv wieder smart kaufen?

Bin freue mich über jede geteilte Erfahrung und Empfehlung :)

I’m setting up my first apartment and I’m pretty tech-savvy. I’ll also be setting up Home Assistant, so I’m wondering which appliances are actually worth buying smart.

Would you recommend buying smart appliances from the start, or is it better to buy normal ones and make them smart yourself with sensors/DIY solutions? (Freezer, fridge, oven, washing machine, etc.)

I’m especially interested in:

• Which smart appliance has been genuinely useful?
• Which one do you regret buying smart?
• Where is the extra money for a smart appliance simply not worth it?
• Is there anything you can’t really replicate with DIY sensors?
• What would you definitely buy smart again?

Would love to hear your experiences :)

Hello everyone,

I don't want my shows to keep appearing in "Next Up" after 14 days. I've already set "Max days in 'Next Up'" to 14 under Settings → Display, but episodes still show up.

Has anyone else run into this? Does anyone know if it's caused by a plugin like Home Screen Sections, which lets you merge Continue Watching and Next Up?

Edit:

After testing it without the Home Screen Sections Plugin it seems like merging is the issue. Am I missing something?

Hello,

I want to configure my self-hosted Netbird Server Container with Environment Variables instead of the config.yaml file. Is it possible to configure the Server container only with Environment Variables and where can I find the default values of the available ones and which I should change?

Thank you :)

Hello guys, Sonarr is showing the new episode airing today but it is not in the episode list? Anyone has the same issue? Is there a fix? TMDB has the new episodes TVDB has not...

I have a domain configured both in Filters → DNS Rewrites (global answer) and as a Custom Filtering Rule using `$dnsrewrite` + `$client` (meant to give a different answer to my WireGuard clients only).

In practice, the DNS Rewrite entry always wins, the client-specific Custom Filtering Rule never seems to apply as long as the DNS Rewrite entry exists for that domain.

Is this expected behavior? Is there a documented priority order between the two rewrite systems, and is there any way to make the Custom Filtering Rule win instead (without removing the DNS Rewrite entry)?

Is there a Plugin that can automatically tag an anime episode if it is a filler? Would be a very nice feature :D

I found it pretty easy to deploy the whole Arr-Stack with Jellyfish etc. but I have issues finding a good way to build one for Books/Mangas. I have a Usenet Provider and an Indexer and I already tried Readarr and changing the Metadata source to api https://api.bookinfo.pro but I still wasn't satisfied because some books were not associated with the author. I also tried Lazy librarian but after removing a book I wasn't able to search for it again.

What do you guys use for books? Anyone has a goog guide? Thank you!

I noticed with some series when I search for any other season then season 1 it still searches for Season 1 instead of the season I selected. I tried readding the series, same issue. Prowlarr also shows it searches only for Season 1...

Hi everyone,

I'm seeing something odd with Prowlarr and was wondering if anyone else has experienced this.

When I search for the exact same term in Prowlarr and directly on the SceneNZB website, the website returns significantly more results.

Any ideas on what could cause the discrepancy and how to fix it? Never noticed any issues before.

Thanks!

I noticed this because Sonarr couln't find a matching release with prowlarr set, but I had a feeling something is wrong...

I started using Infisical as my secret storage together with Komodo and Terraform, and I want to move away from .env files completely.

Now I’m struggling a bit with how to structure secrets in Infisical.

I see two possible approaches:

1. App-centric structure

Each application has its own folder and stores all required secrets there.

• /application-a
• /application-b

Pros: clear ownership and easy access control
Cons: duplication when multiple apps need the same secret (e.g. API keys, shared services)

2. Provider/shared-centric structure

Secrets are grouped by their source/provider and shared between apps.

• /cloudflare
• /postgres
• /github

Apps then consume what they need from multiple paths.

Pros: no duplication, better reuse
Cons: access control becomes less granular and apps may get access to secrets they don’t directly need

I’m trying to understand what the best practice is here in real-world setups.

Is it better to prioritize isolation per application, or avoid duplication and structure secrets more globally?

Would be great to hear how others handle this with Infisical + Docker/Terraform setups.

Hello guys,

I am using KefinTweaks for my Watchlists and want to use the CSS Style from ElegantFin.

When applying the CSS from "Dashboard > Branding > Custom CSS Code" the Media Bar Plugin works fine. However when Custom CSS Code is empty and I choose ElegantFin with the KefinTweaks Skin Manager the MediaBar shows up in a weird box. I tested other Themes with the Skin Manager too and some showed the MediaBar correctly and some had the same issue with the Box.

Example from a wrongly shows MediaBar when choosing Theme with SkinManager

Another issue I am facing is that ElegantFin doesn't show the "add bookmark" button when hovering over a poster. Like before some other Skins show the button, some don't.

I am running Jellyfin 10.11.11 in Docker with the File Transformation Plugin.

Does anyone have the same issues or can help me?

Thank you :)

EDIT:

Found a fix for the Add Bookmark Button not showing when hovering Media. It's in the Theme specific options. MediaBar problem sadly isn't fixed I tried the nightly build.

EDIT 2:

Seems like disabling Media Bar Support Option in Skin Settings seems to fix the issue :D

Is there a way I can give my clients a static Netbird IP address? I need one for DNS Zones. Another great option would be a DNS Record pointing to a host not a specific IP which doesn't seem to be available :/

Hello guys,

I noticed my NetBird Dashboard is showing my Client as active after running "netbird down" I tried it one a few machines and its showing active for any. Tried restarting both Client and Server/Dashboard which doesn't seem to help. Anyone has the same issue or a fix? I kinda need to know if my client is connected or not for troubleshooting if something isn't working.

Thanks

Until recently my setup worked fine with Crowdsec and Netbird self hosted everything in Docker.

I noticed Clients couldn't connect and did some troubleshooting. Found out Crowdsec WAF can't be in front for the netbird-grcp and netbird-backend routes in Traefik. Is there a reason why this is? Is it because Crowdsec can't parse the protocol? Is there another way or must I disable Crowdsec for these routes?
Any explanation appreciated 😃

I feel kinda dumb rn because I can't find out a solution for this.

I want to use self hosted Netbird and Mullvad. All internal traffic is handled by netbird and all external goes through mullvad. Since not all of my clients (android) can handle two simultaneous VPN connections I want to create an exit node in netbird which is behind mullvad VPN. I know tailscale has a feature directly for that but I can't find a solution for netbird. The problem is I use geo blocking in front of my netbird container, if for example I spin up a netbird docker container with a glueton container all the netbird container traffic goes through glueton/mullvad and the container can't register as a netbird client due to the geo blocking.

I would prefer not to allow more countries in crowdsec and neither to just use one country in mullvad.
