selfhosting

<p>In the past few days I’ve seen talk about RAM prices shooting up due to demand from big datacenters. </p><p>Today I read that a historic brand like Crucial - I own plenty of their hardware, including SSDs - is dropping consumer products to focus on gear for those same datacenters. <br>The result (or maybe the intention?) is to push people away from self hosting, undermine the OwnYourData idea and make everyone depend on huge datacenters for life.</p><p>So much for owning your data.<br>So much for decentralisation.</p><p>Because taking down one giant datacenter is far easier than taking down thousands or millions of individual nodes.</p><p>Friends and colleagues, don’t trade your freedom for a bit of convenience. Once you give it away, getting it back is very hard. </p><p>Always Own Your Data.</p><p><a href="/tags/ownyourdata/" rel="tag">#OwnYourData</a> <a href="/tags/selfhosting/" rel="tag">#SelfHosting</a></p>

<p>Hello to all of you people of mastodon! 🤗<br>This is my <a href="/tags/introduction/" rel="tag">#introduction</a> <br>Here I will share stuff and links that I would like more people to know, I will also try to write some reflexions and though on my projects. I live in Normandy, France.

<p>Journey with self hosting for personal blog and fediverse</p><p>@selfhosted</p><p>Hello, I followed the &quot;selfhosted&quot; instance on LemmyWorld in order to be able to talk about my experiences having them in order, without confusing criteria into Fediverse. Hoping they can be useful to others. </p><p>Current setup: Hostinger vps kvm2 plan, Debian12, YunoHost, Hostinger&#x27;s docker manager installed. </p><p>Personal background: blind since birth, (I don&#x27;t see), I&#x27;m mostly a computer power-user, worked and studied with ms-dos since 1989 until late 90s. Basic GNU/Linux knowledge in 2002, then interrupted in 2004. </p><p>I don&#x27;t care talking about disability when discussing unrelated topics but it&#x27;s necessary in this case as my needs are quite different from others. </p><p>So, I&#x27;ve been scared by self-hosting and have had shared hosting web sites until now. Until <span class="h-card"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@_elena" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>_elena</span></a></span> started self hosting her digital echosystem from scratch using YunoHost. </p><p>Due to lack of drivers I stopped with Linux on my private machine, drivers for the Braille display I had, and then the uneffective (at least for my need) screen reader capabilities on Linux&#x27;s GUI based distros. </p><p>Finally in January 2026 I jumped in the dark after reading Elena Rossini&#x27;s blog about YunoHost and having explored their demo pages. At the worst, I&#x27;ll cancel the contract...</p><p>In the end I&#x27;ve managed to run WriteFreely, WordPress, CastoPod and GoToSocial, just by YunoHost; but if someone says terminal knowledge is not needed, this is a complete lie. </p><p>Where a system (such as YunoHost) can do the dirty work configuring postfix and nginx, I&#x27;ll support it but it has its disadvantages: not every app can be installed through it. </p><p>For me it&#x27;s very difficult to create and look after a config file on my own, it&#x27;s frustrating for a sighted to miss a punctuation sign, an apostrophe, an indent. Let alone for me! A single space skipped, can crash a system.</p><p>A lie even saying that AI completely helps. It does solve some small, simple, immediate tasks but it has some mistakes as well. The so-called allucinations which create a real mess if you can rely on no personal skill.</p><p>Such as &quot;sudo yunohost tools cert-install&quot;, or similar. AI wrote &quot;cert-install&quot; while the real command is &quot;cert install&quot;! A power user can get rid of it and correct, a beginner with no command-line knowledge, just copies, pastes, and gets scared.</p><p>My late attempt has been Madblog, a static markdown-based blogging platform with Fediverse activitypub in it, so I learned what Docker is and how it basically works. But I gave up, due to several timeouts and activitypub slow-downs. I think I&#x27;m going to use WordPress for blogging then. In case of comments it&#x27;ll be more intuitive for non-fediverse folks.</p><p>Hopefully share others&#x27; experiences as well! </p><p><a href="/tags/activitypub/" rel="tag">#ActivityPub</a> <a href="/tags/blind/" rel="tag">#blind</a> <a href="/tags/fediverse/" rel="tag">#fediverse</a> <a href="/tags/introduction/" rel="tag">#introduction</a> <a href="/tags/selfhost/" rel="tag">#selfhost</a> <a href="/tags/selfhosting/" rel="tag">#selfhosting</a> <a href="/tags/wordpress/" rel="tag">#WordPress</a> <a href="/tags/yunohost/" rel="tag">#YunoHost</a></p>

<p>Asked my fellow nerds where to migrate from <a href="/tags/nixos/" rel="tag">#NixOS</a>, considering it&#x27;s being overtaken by fascists, and there&#x27;s no realistic way out of it. Here&#x27;s what they came up with.</p><p>- Desktop: Opensuse Tumbleweed. Fairly new packages, rolling release, atomic updates with easy rollbacks, thanks to package manager and BTRFS snapshots.<br>- Dotfile manager: Chezmoi. Natively integrates with Git, has templating, integration with secrets managers, age.<br>- Service management: Cockpit. Not declarative, but a GUI; I&#x27;ll take it. Provides handle to all server ops: updating packages, managing systemd services, managing containers, etc.<br>- Fleet management: Kubernetes on Talos Linux. Needs decent hardware and multiple machines, and is somewhat complex, so you&#x27;ll know if you need it.</p><p>Share your other suggestions!

<p>Good morning Fedi friends and happy Saturday! 🌈​<br><br>File under: I&#x27;m such a clown sometimes. I did something extremely foolish yesterday (installation-wise) that bricked my whole YunoHost with Sharkey instance. This is not the fault of YunoHost or Sharkey, it&#x27;s just me being the biggest airhead.<br><br>So this morning I nuked that VPS (Hetzner makes it so easy to start and stop) and, armed with a stopwatch, I wanted to see how long it would take me to order a new server, log in, install YunoHost and set up a main URL and a subdomain to log in.<br><br>I had this unique challenge that we&#x27;re going hiking in the mountains so my time is very limited this morning.<br><br>How long did it take me? A grand total of 14 minutes.<br><br>The perks of being a fool is that you repeat the steps so many times that you go from being terrified (what do I have to do now?) to just sailing through the steps.<br><br>Time went like this:<br><br>1m30s: logged onto Hetzner, ordered a new server (Debian v12)<br><br>4m50s in: logged in, increased security, ran apt update and apt upgrade<br><br>5m in: installed YunoHost (thanks <a href="/tags/curl/" rel="tag">#curl</a>)<br><br>7m30s in: with YunoHost successfully installed, I got into their beautiful graphical interface to continue the post install<br><br>9m30s in: post installation complete<br><br>11m 20s in: began tweaking DNS records for the main domain and the logging in subdomain, installed certificates, etc.<br><br>14m23s = all done, tripled checked that everything is working in incognito mode (it is) 🥳​<br><br>Wishing you all a great day.

<p>It&#x27;s really frustrating to see places like /r/selfhosted just being bombarded with &quot;I made this project...&quot; AI generated posts for AI generated slop projects.
