I use mattermost as a free, open source Slack replacement. I like it a lot. I also use authentik as my SSO provider for my #homelab / #selfhosted stuff.

If you don't pay for the enterprise version of Mattermost, you don't get the SSO features. You can fake that by using their free GitLab integration. But you also don't get the capability to switch users from one form of authentication (email/password) to SSO after you set it up.

This is pretty obscure, and it involves a bunch of raw Postgres queries. But I figured it out and wrote a blog on converting Mattermost users from email/password to SSO


Well, this was a surprise. Decided to run a simple LAN ping test between two of my access points, and the results were not what I expected.

Contender 1: The "mighty" Ubiquiti UniFi AC Lite
Contender 2: The tiny MikroTik mAP Lite

The winner? By a long shot, the MikroTik! It showed much better stability and lower latency.

The Stats:

- MikroTik: Avg 8.2ms / Jitter 10ms

- Ubiquiti: Avg 15.4ms / Jitter 32.1ms

Goes to show that size isn't everything in the world of networking.
