-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

I use this in my house, it's great. I chose this over others because it allows defining the url path specifically. (Domain.com/whatever)
I have all my pdf manuals and docs uploaded to Paperless ngx. From within Paperless I make them externally linkable.
I take those long nonsense links, shorten them using chhoto with meaningful paths (like /mitersaw) then convert all of those to qr codes that I print out and stick to whatever object is relevant.
Say if I'm working on my chainsaw or whatever and need the manual, point my phone at the qr code and open the manual from my network for my exact model.
That’s pretty damn clever
