How to Install #PeerTube on #Ubuntu VPS
This article provides an in-depth guide demonstrating how to install PeerTube on Ubuntu VPS.
What is PeerTube?
PeerTube is a decentralized, federated video hosting platform powered by WebTorrent and ActivityPub. It enables users to self-host video services and interact with other PeerTube ...

Those #LocalFirst and #SelfHosted apps prove very valuable now, no?
I'm pondering on, instead of self-hosting, buying some #email service.
I need:
- Multiple separate inboxes (NOT aliases!)
- #IMAP / #SMTP, the whole alphabet, I want to use #Thunderbird.
- Not "one of the big guys" like Google/Microsoft/Yahoo/WhatHaveYou
- Protonmail is... Not sure, but their "email addresses" === aliases
- I'm going to have to stick with #SelfHosted am I not?

Today while training some sysadmins I shared this real photo of ancient Greek engineers configuring a mailserver.
On the left the brave engineer is trying to stop unauthorised pipelining through the MTA while their knee is viciously attacked by a subtly broken DKIM key. Meanwhile, their co-sysadmin is hammering away at a perfectly good Postfix sender restrictions policy, screaming "It's not DNS!", while bitten by a PTR record quietly hissing "It'ssss DNSssss".

Portable KVM for console access
So I sometimes need the ability to console into my servers to troubleshoot something or change BIOS settings etc, but always balk at having to haul a monitor and keyboard to get local access. When I worked in datacenters they had those mobile KVM carts you could wheel around to accomplish this, but I’m looking for something more portable.
Something else I was looking into was the PiKVM which I think would satisfy the need, but I’m curious if anyone here has experience with them (either DIY or the prebuilt units)? Also, I believe I would need to keep one of these in each of my server locations, of which there are two that are on different floors of the house.
Anyone have some advice, or some other solutions I haven’t thought of? Thanks in advance!

If anyone's looking for recommendations, I've been really enjoying running the self-hosted version of https://karakeep.app. It comes with a free Android app and a browser plugin.

Stop cramming everything onto one Pi: treat your home lab like a tiny ISP - hardware, stack, backups and an update plan
Rant: I keep seeing people run their whole stack on a single Raspberry Pi and then act surprised when an SD card dies and six months of data and config evaporate. Selfhosting is awesome, but if you actually depend on services (Nextcloud, homeserver, backups, VPN) you need a tiny bit of ops discipline, not just duct-taped enthusiasm.
Reality check and a practical plan I actually use: run a small hybrid setup so failures are contained and restores are trivial.
Hardware picks (budget to sensible):
Software stack I run and recommend: Proxmox as the hypervisor, LXC containers for lightweight system services, Docker for apps that expect it, Traefik as the reverse proxy, Unbound for local DNS, WireGuard for remote access. Use Nextcloud or Syncthing for file sync, Postgres for databases, and MinIO or an S3-compatible object store for backups/uploads.
Backup and restore policy (do this, now):
Operational rules and troubleshooting cheats:
Final note: treat your home services like a small business - SLAs, backups, canaries, and a maintenance window. It makes selfhosting feel slightly less like playing with Lego and way more like owning your data for real. What did you learn the hard way when your single point of failure finally failed?

Can anyone recommend a schedule polling tool like Doodle, but free?
I need to poll some coworkers on a time to meet, but Doodle wants me to pay a ridiculous fee because my number of slots is more than they allow for free.
Some time ago I used #FramaPoll by @Framasoft for date selection. Even #SelfHosted it for a while.
Now apparently callec #FramaDate: https://framadate.org/abc/
