@robi Try Vivaldi Browser, does long screenshots natively. Awesome Screenshots extension does too I think.

Firefox does too, but it doesn't work with the Cloudron dashboard.

@nebulon said in Show me your dashboard :

If you run $('#ng-view').css('overflow', 'unset'); in the webinspector, the full-page screenshot feature should always work.

Thanks but need more info/ guidance than that

I guess you mean press F12 to open the Inspector. But how do you run that? Where do you paste it? Thanks!

[ruihildt]

@jdaviescoates Yes you open the inspector, then you go to the console tab, then in the command line interface, you paste it and press enter.

Interesting posts. Thank you for sharing.

Here comes the dashboard from my personal cloudron. A kind of messy, because I love it to try out new apps

This Cloudron runs on a 6 core, 32 GB RAM VPS with a (slow) 1 TB HDD at netcup (~20 €/month). Next time i will order SSD storage instead of HDD.

Beside some apps for testing purposes (like directus, guacamole, jupyter hub, limesurvey, wallabag, dolibarr, snipe-it - in short most of the apps), I run a few nextclouds for family & friends. I personally like the possibility to have my own VPN endpoint.

1x FiveM - a GTA V multiplayer server

Hosting my private family cloud.
2x Communities

Warning, it's a bit long.

I have whiteout some apps (mostly wordpress), because privacy. It's a mix of personal, test and client apps.

Thanks, but that made zero different using Firefox's standard "full page" screenshot.

@ruihildt Looks like you win the max apps on a single cloudron easily at this point

@ruihildt Would love to know the specs of your VPS you're running. And curious, how much memory have you allocated to each WordPress app? Is it the default 256, or maybe 512, higher? I am sitting at 512 MB for each one and so far seems great performance-wise, plus the VPS I'm on is just an 8 GB memory VPS but is a wiz performance-wise compared to the one I had at a previous provider.

[ruihildt]

@d19dotca It's a Contabo VPS with the following specs:

• 8 cores
• 30gb guaranteed (at this point it's 15 gb used on average)
• 800GB SSD

It has to be noted though that none of these websites have high traffic.
For the wordpress, most have the default allocated, and I update according to the use. Mostly when there is a memory intensive operation (liek resizing some huge images, I sometimes put it up to 1gb, just ot be sure), as it's usually in burst it never has been an issue.

[ruihildt]

@girish Still growing, I wonder what's the limit.

Some apps that are duplicates, like the webmails: I spin them up only to have custom urls for each one webmail.clientwebsite.com.
Admittedly, I could do redirects, but it confuses clients, and I still have enough resources.

[atrilahiji]

@ruihildt Jesus Christ how much does that cost/month?

Mine is pretty modest right now:

Running on a server I have running at my home with the following specs:

CPU: i3 9100 (4 cores)
RAM: 64GB @ 3200MHz
Storage: 512GB NVMe SSD + 2TB 7200RPM HDD for Emby + Nextcloud
Backup Storage: 4TB Seagate Ironwolf NAS HDD

I have a bit of an obsession with keeping data on prem (my home) because at the end of the day, a VPS is still someone else's computer and in my mind is no different from just using SAAS or Cloud services. But maybe I'm just paranoid.

The only thing I use a VPS for is GitLab runner.

EDIT: Here is my server (its green because of philips hue lights)

[ruihildt]

@atrilahiji It's dirty cheap, 15€/month.

With @rmdes , we've recommended Cloudron to clients and friends, and with lower priced VPS from Contabo, Cloudron was unstable and buggy, don't take those!

[atrilahiji]

@ruihildt said in Show me your dashboard :

Contabo

Oh wow... yeah thats incredibly cheap. I was using DigitalOcean before. While they were reliable they were incredibly expensive.

Getting stuff on sale, my setup cost me a total of ~$700 CAD and sips an incredibly low amount of power. Eventually it will pay for itself... It is nice having 64GB of RAM to play with though. I'm coming nowhere close to my cap now.

My biggest bottleneck is networking right now, as I am using a shitty residential network. Thats where I would benefit from a VPS right now I think.

[marcusquinn]

I tend to use the URL for the name once live and just a vanilla name when testing. This is in the WebCatalog wrapper:

This is on Hetzner €12/month (no VAT if you're outside the EU).

The business ones are on a €50/month Hetzner shared VPS.

Speed is the same on both as they are the same processors and most apps are not multi-threaded.

Moving everything possible to Cloudron, so we'll have a few more instances soon

@marcusquinn Thanks Marcus, will give it a shot.. this was in SRware's Iron - a cleaned version of Chrome.

Keep hearing good things about Vivaldi.

[robi]

@nebulon is this specific to a browser engine?

I was using ShareX and it consistently failed to produce a clean stitching.

Greenshot also failed, only grabbing the view.

PicPic did the one that worked finally after adjusting the scroll timing to one notch slower.

[robi]

@ruihildt the link in the bottom of my signature is even cheaper if you opt for the yearly or 3-year billing.

Huge machines.
Mine's a 24GB VPS and just picked up two additional 32GB VPSes for customers.

[marcusquinn]

@robi wow, those prices are insane!

What are the location options?

You happy with them for uptime, support etc?

Worth approaching them to recommend a Cloudron partnership?

Certainly Cloudron would be a good case study for their blog: https://blog.ssdnodes.com/blog/category/alternatives/

[marcusquinn]

Ouch, maybe a bit too insane pricing: https://www.blogtipstricks.com/ssdnodes-review/

My personal Cloudron is running on a Intel NUC on my home connection. Looks like I am way behind in app count in comparison here

[necrevistonnezr]

My private Cloudron running on a ASRock Beebox N3000 at home...
Just the bare necessities for me. Waiting for Pi Hole / Wireguard and Plex!

@necrevistonnezr said in Show me your dashboard :

and Plex

The volume management code is most likely getting merged today, yay. So it's big step forward for Plex. This will allow us to mount host paths into app containers.I will update the 6.0 thread when we merge.

@girish YA!!!! I am itching to switch from Emby to Plex. Its the most polished personal streaming platform I know of.

yes, totally worth it. Using it across 4 diff projects.

What are the location options?

They have locations worldwide and more opening soon. Go thru the signup process for the list.

You happy with them for uptime, support etc?

Initially I wasn't as I got put on a busy server that hogged resources. But an email to support got me moved to a less busy server easily.

I already have & @girish has an email.
It took a bit of work and

[murgero]

And I thought I was using a lot of apps. sheesh

[rmdes]

I just Read the whole thread : it felt like cloudron porn

[marcusquinn]

@rmdes haha - I'm on my 4th Cloudron instance now, and lots more planned to spread the joy
