The most popular reviews in /r/dietpi:
You will need to install the services separately, and I highly recommend you install all services within a container.
They have a great set of docker containers and great how-to's.
You will also want to install docker-compose so apt install docker-compose this services will allow the containers to talk themselves over a bridged network so instead of adding the ip of rutorrent you can simply put rutorrent and the container will resolve the internal IP itself.

Here is a config for a lot of those services setup through docker-compose.

To call it bloated in comparison to "pure Debian" is odd, since the number of packages that come installed by default is smaller and the number of processes running by default is fewer.
No one is making you use the config tools. You can delete them if you like, but I don't think you will gain significant disk space as a result.
Nope. Different ports.
I can connect/disconnect the DietPi-VPN client which causes the PiVPN connection to break/work.
It appears to be a routing issue. When the DietPi-VPN client is connect, the Raspberry Pi can get to the internet via NordVPN without issue. The problem is that my PiVPN connection doesn't seem to then route over the "tun" interface.
They're both up and running together just fine, but PiVPN connection won't use the DietPi-VPN tunnel to surf the 'net.
I also did a manual upgrade, worked well, but I think the Sonarr source is offline at the moment. Otherwise, pretty straight-forward based on : https://dietpi.com/blog/?p=811
Cheers Dev Team.
You can install vaultwarden. It is an unofficial version of bitwarden, but the API is compatible to bitwarden so you can use the official clients. It's also more lightweight than bitwarden and will use less resources on your Raspberry.
I was getting the same issue with ProtonVPN's official client on an x64 install. No idea why, but I'm guessing it has something to do with DietPi's implementation of dietpi-vpn.
Anyway, I connected to Proton via dietpi-vpn using the openvpn/ikev2 credentials. The current server selection process is not very good, as you'll have to either research which specific server has the location and services you want, or change the underlying script. Here's the server list: https://api.protonvpn.ch/vpn/logicals. Consult this thread for more info: https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=8961
One of the wonderful moderators over at the official DietPi Community Forum was able to answer my question... currently the best option is definitely "overlayroot"
It works perfectly and honestly better then using UnionFS on Raspbian... if you liked UnionFS you'll absolutely love overlayroot...
I did attempt to install UnionFS following that tutorial and it caused serious enough issues that I needed to start fresh again...
Here's a link to my Forum Post: https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=9102
GitHub Links and further information can be found within in that link!
Ok, don't know if this helps but check this site Dietpi Archives it has the previous versions of the site and releases and I checked the downloads and it's working, I was able to download the dietpi img. Let me know if it works.
Well, I only took the details from here: https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=5&start=70#p2272
I've never used qbittorrent myself. Note the red text. Try a non chromium browser...?
Else rTorrent is probably the best..
The default is a share called 'dietpi' which is /mnt/samba/
The others will be from the apps you have installed, which will be detailed here: https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=5
Ok, so... think of me as really stupid. I'm on my MAC going to the dietpi.com website. I see all the software and want to install it. In the past, with Raspbian I would do an "sudo apt-get" command and the software name. So I got on my Pi-Zero and typed in "sudo apt-get LXQT" and of course nothing happened.
If you would be kind enough to paint-by-numbers for me what to do? Not sure what my disconnect is.
Thanks for your help.
dietpi-software
That's the command to install all the goodies!
Then once you have the software installed, if you're unsure how to access it, check it's details here: https://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=5
Forgive me for being a bit dense but the forums are certainly active:

Thats where I'd go to look for Dietpi updates and questions re the state of dietpi. Reddit is not always the best.
If you're capable enough to install dietpi, then surely browsing/registering/asking the question on the dietpi forums isn't beyond you? The head developer is very active there.
Yes I'm being a bit abrasive, but mind boggles how technical people cant do things like search forums......
Having two different VPN routes might get a little confusing..
One solution would be to use Zerotier.
It'll essentially create a new network between you, your Pi, and your server - and they'll all be able to talk to each other. Then you don't need to worry about which VPN is up, etc.
There's no firewall forwarding, route configuration etc... Just works. And free.
