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.

I am glad I never used nor recommended glitch dot com as it is now shutting down. It sure felt like a great project, but I am sick of the dependencies we feed when using those kinds of startup’s tools. Make your own tools or use free [software] ones.
If you are interested in an alternative to glitch, check out https://gitlab.com/raphaelbastide/stolon, it is community made, self-hostable and flat file.
