Step by step I'm moving everything off my Synology NAS – DNS, mail, data, databases and finally the backups. This post tracks the roadmap and the individual steps.

Some websites hung over Wi-Fi but worked over mobile data. Cause was the 1492-byte MTU of the PPPoE uplink combined with missing MSS clamping for IPv6.

Documentation was never my strong suit. For my storage and backup overhaul project (UnSyno) I finally wanted to fix that — with Outline, SMTP via Gmail, and SSO through Authentik.

Last year I migrated the site to Next.js. Now it runs on Astro — and this time most of the work was done by Claude Code. For about 30 Swiss francs in tokens.

From the outside only the most important services should be reachable. The others are protected by Traefik. Authentik also serves as the identity provider for SSO.

Home Assistant has a very useful overview page for energy flows. There is a power overview as a community plugin for Lovelace Card. This is suitable for many setups, but mine is a bit more complex.

For several months, my Wi-Fi has been incredibly slow. Over WiFi, I get speed test results equivalent to a connection from 15 years ago. Even YouTube has problems. We're talking about 5-10Mbit/s over Wi-Fi

For years, actually decades, I've maintained a website, primarily an overview of all my projects. I now want a new site. Reproducible, static, minimalist, simple.

When a reverse proxy is used, it typically also handles the encryption/decryption of HTTPS-HTTP. This means that WordPress, in my case the Docker image, is accessed via HTTP and consequently returns all links via HTTP.
