@crunklord420 What are the specs of the server that runs the KF Pleroma instance? I’m just curious how much RAM, how many cores, what CPU, what OS, etc. you guys use over there.

Over here NB has:

2 dedicated E3-1270 v3 cores
Dedicated gigabit WAN
8 GB of RAM
160 GB of SATA SSD in RAID 10
A couple of slabs of HDD space that totals to 1TB that’s used for media and postgres

That’s gonna change pretty soon to 3900X cores and NVME storage tho. Also, the server runs :arch:

Have a cheap instance from them for a few years hosting random stuff. Pretty decent experience so far.

Am thinking of upgrading though since I'm a bit low on RAM.

@sjw

That's probably because I have a ton of services that no one uses (・ัω・ั)

@crunklord420

@sjw

Off the top of my head, Linx, Kanboard, Synapse (Matrix), Wallabag, Trojan-gfw, Wireguard, and some competitive programming related stuff. There are also some static sites, some reverse proxys for stuff that I run at home, and Netdata.

@sjw @crunklord420 @casualwp Yea these look interesting. I like when they have Docker instructions. I might too.

@sjw @djsumdog @crunklord420

Docker feels like a guilty pleasure for me in the sense that I get a lot of the criticism, but boy is it easy to set up in a self-hosted scenario.

@casualwp @djsumdog @crunklord420 I nee docker being nice for trying something new out and not having to worry about cleaning it up later. Also, the scaling and stuff you can do with Kubernetes is pretty cool but I'm nowhere near that level of scale and likely never will be. Plus, I have no idea how to use Docker.

@sjw

I'm using Arch on my laptop and dev VM.

On servers I'm a bit hesitant though. In a sense, stable-release distros (am using Debian, TIL about the Weboob incident though) are attractive for amateurs (?) like me since I can batch stuff up and deal with updates in one go.

@djsumdog @crunklord420

@casualwp @sjw @crunklord420 Wait, what's the Weboob incident? I know Debian setup a Pleroma instance and there was some controversy about the mascot in the masto-fe interface .. was there more to it than that?
