Sooooo my recent mishaps with server administration are making me speed up my plans of shifting towards community-owned and -maintained hosting.
Ever since my conversation with @boris almost one year ago, I took his quote “self-hosting is selfish” as a mantra. It’s time to act accordingly.
Together with @Holly and @youjungnoh, we are putting together a group of tech-savy people who want to, respectively:
- Learn more about system administration
- Get their hands dirty while doing so
- Maintain our own shared server
- Host their own things (be them websites, projects, or services) together with comrades instead of individual infrastructure.
There are many super cool collectives that are doing this already, and we intend to draw inspiration from their work and their documentation, but we really want to do this together!
Who wants to join? Please, do reach out! I already spun up a small-ish VPS that is now hosting all my static websites. If you’d like to get involved, reach out and I would be happy to give you SSH access 🌻
We would also be very grateful if more experienced sysAds want to help us out by hosting workshops or brief classes.
We intend to meet for the first time in South Holland (but maybe virtually too) sometime during the first two weeks of March.
Next steps:
- Find a name for this group/server/mission
- Plan a series of (free, open) intro lessons with guests
- Start hosting some things
- Migrate things I am already hosting with YunoHost in our community server
- Migrate to a physical device in a home of ours?
EDIT: I forgot to add this, but it goes without saying that ours would be a queer and transfeminist server

@Elizafox so kinda like #IPFS but with changing files...
- Anything that can run off a basic webhost and not require a #DB server or even #VPS will be better than #ActivityPub!

🥳 New module release: Hetzner Cloud OpenAPI Client
https://codeberg.org/small-tech/hetzner-cloud-openapi-client
This is an OpenAPI client for Node.js generated from the official Hetzner Cloud OpenAPI specification using Massimo.
Recently, while reviewing the code for Catalyst¹, I realised that the Hetzner library I was using was deprecated. The only other client library listed on Awesome Hetzner Cloud for JavaScript was updated seven years ago². So I did a bit of research and discovered that Hetzner has an official OpenAPI specification (useful little things that you can generate documentation as well as working client code from). I also discovered Massimo³, a lightweight and easy to use OpenAPI client generator.
So, anyway, a few minutes later, I had a working Node.js client generated but I thought I’d take a little more time to make it into a module in case anyone else wanted to use it.
In the process, I also created a simple web app example with Kitten⁴ where you can enter your Hetzner API key in a web interface, have it persisted to the default Kitten database⁴ and then carry out a simple call to list your servers. It’s 99 lines of code, including comments, in a single file. (Because Kitten loves you.)
The example uses the new/advanced class and event-based way of working with Kitten so you might find it interesting for that reason too (I haven’t had the chance to document this workflow properly yet). It also showcases Kitten’s Streaming HTML⁵ workflow, as well as its built-in support for semantic default styles and its first-class Markdown support.
You can see the source code for the Kitten example here:
https://codeberg.org/small-tech/hetzner-cloud-openapi-client/src/branch/main/example/index.page.js
The cool thing is that because the client is generated from the official Hetzner OpenAPI specification, it’s one command to update it should the specification change and you can be sure it matches exactly what’s in the API documentation.
Enjoy!
💕

Someone wants me to migrate their WordPress install to a self hosted server and wants to know how much I charge: Anyone have any advice? I think it usually takes about 4-6 hours for me to setup a debian server, harden ssh, fail2ban, ufw, etc. Migrating a site can be a pain in the but though.
