Wrapping up 2025 with a big win: My site now supports comments from both #Mastodon AND #Bluesky!

Read about how I built this dual-powered system here: https://www.richardorilla.website/how_i_integrated_bluesky_and_mastodon.html

Aiuto per iniziare esperienza selfhost

@localhost

Letto il primo articolo sul blog di Elena Rossini @_elena su come muoversi nel mondo del selfhosting e lei con i principianti di questo settore, parlava di Hostinger come servizio di base e un altro come "più avanzato".
Da quanto ho capito, Hostinger ha un'interfaccia web per gestire il terminale insomma la linea di comando
Essendo legata all'accessibilità per poter compiere scelte di acquisto, vorrei capire se (con o senza hostinger) posso provare questa interfaccia web prima di decidere se avvicinarmi o no al provider. E nel caso non fosse accessibile, se mi conviene puntare su hostinger lo stesso, o muovermi altrove.
Fra l'altro mi scoccia un po' che tocchi mettere la debian 12 perché a quanto sembra, YunoHost non funziona sulla debian 13.

I'm working on a Discord alternative focused on privacy, decentralisation, and user ownership.

The goal is simple: self-sovereignty by default. You control your data, your community, and how the platform is run.

If you care about Linux, self-hosting, freedom of speech, and building healthier online spaces, join the conversation.

It's the S1 finale for #selfhostember! It's a good time to bookmark the link to our blog - oh you'll need a bookmark manager first. Coincidentally we just have the thing for you: a post trying out #Linkding - a minimalist bookmarks manager - including an eulogy for a paid bookmarking service we all knew and loved.

If you're interested in the Fediverse and self-hosting, you might find Fediwall interesting. It's a "media wall" for showing the latest Mastodon posts with particular tags from particular servers, and works best on laptops, monitors or tablets:

➡️ https://github.com/defnull/fediwall#readme

You can find a demo server running at:

➡️ https://fediwall.social/?tags=dogs&accounts=

Click on the message at the very top of the screen to customise the demo server's output.

I know the feeling! I'm now in my 5th year of running my own @snikket_im server, and that's also still a source of immense joy (and pride)!

[Opinion] Sovereignty was once exclusive to the powerful—governments, billionaires, and elites controlling the rules. Add "Social" and everything shifts.

Sometimes ranting helps I guess. After I reverted everything back to Nginx Reverse Proxy (after getting fed up with configuring Nginx) I noticed that this ominous '/desktop#/' thing was still getting appended to my selfhosted apps URLs.

That means it was just cached from the ezBookkeeping app (which uses it to show the desktop page instead of the mobile page) I tried first and configured wrong for a short amount of time but that was enough for the browser to cache it and append it to every other URL.

#selfhosting #nginx #nginxproxymanager #cache #reverseproxy

I think I just give up configuring Nginx and just stay with Nginx Proxy Manager. That would mean I can't configure everything through files but at least it works.

I have now spent 2 days trying to get Nginx to work and I managed to reverse proxy to my selfhosted services with valid SSL certificates created with a DNS challenge but when I try to access my services via the configured URL I get an "/desktop#/" appended to it and half the apps don't like that and won't work with that.

I wish I could use Caddy but the way modules are installed for it is so unnecessarily convoluted IMO compared to Nginx plugins which you can just install with your package manager instead of having to build it with the modules included for yourself (or creating your own Docker image) which makes maintaining it a PITA (and I need a module for Caddy because I need DNS challenge for SSL certificates because I don't want to open any ports on my server).

Back to #dockge from #arcane as a web UI for docker compose management. Arcane has more bells and whistles (and required clicks) than I need, and the dockge repo seems to have become active again https://github.com/louislam/dockge also became a sponsor of the project while at at it. #SelfHosting

As a holiday treat to myself, I got a server through Hetzner's server auction. Now I need to learn how to set up docker stuff on it via command line because I don't think there's a GUI interface I can use.

Anyone have any links that will help someone that hasn't touched a linux system since the days of OS/2 Warp? (Which I know is not linux, but it is going to give the olds an idea of how long it's been.)

If you’re a self hoster or interested into getting into #selfhosting have a look at this series by @colocataires https://blog.colocataires.dev/

It’s very well written, informative and has a few projects listed I wasn’t aware of yet.
