#selfhosting

cross-posted from: lemmy.ml/post/31718711

Always wanted to selfhost your Fediverse instance but were always worried about system administration trauma?

Do you ever have to run around your flat, picking up all the leftover parentheses from yesterday’s party with your hosting coop coworkers?

Then you are probably the right person, check out this post about fearless Bonfire hosting on a Guix System. You’ll learn that taking care of a community is much more manageable when you let computer do the boring work for you.

Set up HTTPS, automatic backups, automatic nightly upgrades and join the awesome Bonfire community without a single worry on losing data from your instance.

Finally wrote a blog post
Ugh I didn't fix the date of post

#SelfHosting
I'm not coming from the "InfoSec" community, but given enough incentive and resources, "follow the money" should find any self,- hoster, if you think of the #CloudAct or have someone with lots of power or money make the right calls to exert pressure on the hosting company.
Even if you put up your own server somewhere in a third country (expensive,) that server needs (rental or owned) space and an internet service provider.
Given the above, how could I *not* track U down?

#SelfHosting surely is the way to go, *if* you're not writing content critical of today's authoritarian leaders, political or corporate/ #TechnoFeudalist.

If s. o. reaches a level of significant reach as to annoy them, however, the self-hosting author's takedown might by mortally permanent.

But I don't want to rain on your parade, Elena.

The main advantage of the #Fediverse might be that it is so versatile, as to cater for all use cases and most security necessities.

La gioiosa via del #selfhosting Iniziata 2 anni fa pensando "massì, cosa vuoi che ci possa mettere sul serverino di casa, giusto un paio di cose". E poi finisce così.

It was maintenance day, so ran software updates (all docker compose)

- one changed its minimum required Postgres version without mentioning it
- one told me to run command `x` for a backup in the Docker container, `x` errors with `do not run as root` only user in the container is root
- one changed the port the app listens on, not mentioned in the release or upgrade notes

I wonder why not more people are selfhosting or why so many outdated apps are running in the wild #selfhosting #selfhosted

TFW you reboot your machine for the first time in days after setting up a bunch of new stuff, and it all works.

I just pulled out my old server from before the move a couple years ago. It's an optiplex 7010. That's hardly a powerhouse, but it'll be enough to run nextcloud. I also found a WD 4TB HDD.

So, time for some upgrades.

I ordered a second identical HDD so I can have RAID storage. I also ordered a 250GB SATA SSD for the operation system, and a caddy to hold it in a spare disk bay.

Then a 32GB ram kit, the max supported.

Total spend: approx $100 after some credit card rebates

My Joplin Docker container randomly decided it doesn't want to work anymore.

Using `joplin/server:latest` on a regular-ass Intel i5 PC...

`exec /usr/local/bin/tini: exec format error`

Which, I believe, is the "you're trying to run the AMD64 build on ARM" error....

I was wondering. Is there an OSS alternative for real time subtitles aimed for the deaf and people with limited hearing?

I could have sworn there was something that can create subtitles in realtime that isn't a proprietary closed source mess
