Still looking how to balance your VMs in #Proxmox clusters? #ProxLB 1.1.9 is here!

This release adds features that were requested during the #DutchProxmoxDay2025 which was hosted by our friends Tuxis (tuxis.nl). I'm hearing your feedback and all your feedback from the community and user base is important to me, so let me introduce the following new features:

* Add an optional memory balancing threshold
* Add affinity/anti-affinity support by pools
* Add pressure (PSI) based balancing for memory, cpu, disk
* Pressure (PSI) based balancing for nodes
* Pressure (PSI) based balancing for guests

You can simply upgrade via APT or by obtaining the latest Docker/Container image. PSI based balancing (still in beta) requires Proxmox VE 9 or greater.

Thanks to my employer
@credativ@mastodon.social (https://credativ.de) who provides me the required time to work at this.

It's surprisingly easy to create your own private music streaming service for all your devices. I did a short review and tutorial for one based on Nextcloud's "Music" app:

🌱 https://growyourown.services/review-of-music-app-for-nextcloud

In brief, you install Music on your Nextcloud, then install a compatible app on your phone or tablet, and your music collection becomes a streaming service you can listen to anywhere.

You can also share this streaming service with other users on your Nextcloud.

My wife would like to quit Duolingo (Italian) for something better now that they're effectively limiting lessons per day in the free version with the new "energy"-logic.

So what non-AI-first alternatives can you recommend?

As fascism descends, you are going to need easy to access and use alternatives to Big Tech (aka Fascist Tech).

So maybe bookmark the Chatons collective site initiated by our friends at Framasoft with hosted versions of free-software services for collaborative writing, video conferencing, scheduling appointments, collaborative spreadsheets, file sharing, picture sharing, etc.

A pretty hard challenge on here seems to be, refraining from telling people about *alternatives* that aren't really *alternatives*.

If someone asks about a service they don't have to self-host, a self-hostable service is *not an alternative*.

If your *alternative* doesn't have at least 75% of the features that the other app has it's *not an alternative*.

Most people aren't actually searching for another puzzle they have to decrypt, they're searching for apps that do the same or similar things without destroying the world more or making some rich asshole eternally richer.

Well, now I can say I'm on Molly. (Actually Molly-FOSS. It's a more secure client for Signal.) Too many other commitments currently, but it would be fun to start up a local free-libre software users group that could explore and promote alternatives. I wonder if there's any kind of meet-up for this around here.

First chat using Molly, thanks to @craige

Expérience intéressante cette semaine où je n'ai bu que un café et où je me suis retrouvée face à une version de moi même que j'apprécie beaucoup.
Problème : j'aime le café. J'adore les arômes torréfiés, j'adooooore l'odeur, j'aime la petite mousse sur le dessus...
Masto, des recommandations d' #alternatives au #café qui pourraient faire le taff ?
De préférence du #local et du #bio, parceque je suis pas chiante.

Does anyone have any recommendations for an external EUROPEAN DDoS protection service, like Cloudflare? 🤔

(I'm not asking for recommendations for a CDN, thanks.)
